    Had an unplanned lunch here on Sunday for Mother's Day. I had the spaghetti with chicken instead of beef. The sauce was to thick and tasted much like spaghetti-os out the can. The flame broil taste from the chicken was good and also the garlic bread. Service was not great. By the time my waitor checked back in, I was done eating and asking for a to go box. The atmosphere is good for a variety , date night, or lunch with friends. It seemed casual but a few people were dressed business casual. This place was nothing spectacular from the food to the service. Most likely, I wouldn't eat here again.

    First night in Chicago and was so happy to try both deep and thin style Chicago pizza! Don't underestimate the salad. The Arugala was great! It was a bit loud but for a Saturday night, but surprising.

    I had a lovely time dining outside. Good beer selection on tap and the eggplant parm was delicious. The fantastic service by Esteban was very much appreciated. I was dining alone on what was a busy late afternoon and never once felt rushed, unlike in some other Chicago restaurants. I also enjoyed dining inside at Labiola a few years ago. Comfortable ambience, football on the TV, and there's a donut shop right next door. Highly recommend.

    Great service. The staff were friendly, waiter was attentive, and they have separate staff for taking plates and filling water which circulate the entire meal. The interior is very cozy with a good amount of seating. We were happy to have a reservation as it was busy. Food was good. I had an Aperol Nero to drink, and for dinner, Linguine Fra Diavolo. Overall good taste - calamari was impossible to chew through - likely overcooked in the red sauce. Thank you for an overall good experience!

    I came here for Chicago Restaurant Week which was a walkable distance from The Bean. I chose this place mainly for the price point and the four course pre fixe menu. This was a perfect choice for 6 ppl! Place is casual, meant for relaxed dining that welcomes weary shoppers into its warm ambiance. I chose the following (I think these are half size portions and possibly the dessert being full size). Caesar Salad Rigatoni Alla Vodka - Perfect portion size and loved the vodka sauce. Pistachio Crusted Whitefish - Despite the unappealing plating, this dish was pretty good! Portion size was kinda small but since this was a four course menu, it's to be expected. Tiramisu - This was mainly Mascarpone mousse. I had barely any ladyfingers in my dessert. Service was pretty good. The waitress and staff checked on us quite often despite the restaurant being busy. Solid choice for the amount of menu items you get per person.

    Labriolas deep dish was a bust. The focaccia style crust was delicious, but they were skimpy on the fillings. The fried calamari was decent, and we loved the mocktails. The service was quick and polite, accommodating with our questions. The diner style old school Italian vibes were comforting, with room for small or big groups because there was ample space.

    Met up with our son from Perdue for a weekend in Chicago - chose Labriola because they served both Tavern style pizza and Chicago Deep Dish Pizza - so of course we had to order both! Tavern style was thin and crisp and served piping hot with mushrooms and olives and sausage - delicious - and we ordered the marguerita deep dish - so much deliciousness that I ate another slice after I was full lol - great service with a smile, easy to get a reservation, table was kept watered and clear - I would definitely come here again when we come to Chicago again!

    Had to come back for another happy hour! Truly my favorite happy hour spot so far and the best deals + best sized HH menu. The spritz and sangrias are perfect for the weather getting warmer. This time I tried the pizza too and it was pretty decent for only being $10 (I think?) with HH pricing. Good snack to share. Got the calamari again because I liked it a lot last time!

    Thin deep dish pizza with Stracciatella cheese and mushrooms

    Were were a large group in town for an event and looking to get some food close to where our hotel was. They were able to accommodate our large group via a reservation on Open Table. We arrived and were seated right away and greeted by a friendly server (forgot his name). We all ordered different items, but I wanted to have some pizza. I opted for the thin deep dish so it was not as much (was still too much food), but was delicious. The Stracciatella cheese on top was perfect and there were lots of mushrooms. We sat at a high top which worked, but it was a little tight between us and the table behind us. We all made it work and enjoyed our food. They also have a large drink menu and I opted to try the Sangria. It was good. I'm sure there are a lot of pizza and Italian places, but this was great since there was such a variety of food. My kids opted for the steak and the filet sliders. They said they were delicious and really enjoyed them so it was great to have different options for everyone to get something they were in the mood for.

    1st stop for Chicago Restaurant Week 2026. This is a great option for a $45 dinner with a great value. One of the few 4 courses options at the $45 price point. I had the calamari, tagliatelle, lemon chicken, and panna cotta. Most of the food was good and I had leftovers to take home. Only thing I didnt love was the panna cotta. I would suggest getting the tiramisu instead. In addition to the restaurant week deal they also have a monthly wine deal where a certain bottle is only $25. The atmosphere is classic Italian with a spacious dining area. Recommend to try out for Restaurant Week

    Came here on a Thursday for a late lunch and got seated promptly. The service was attentive and kind. The deep dish was good. Not the best I've had, but still solid. Unfortunately the brussel sprout appetizer was not as good - a bit soggy and too lemony.

    Spaghetti & Meatballs
    Michael W.

    Was looking for a place to eat lunch today on the mile. Was feeling some Italian food but not pizza so I gave this place a shot. The spaghetti and meatballs tasted homemade. It was really well made. The indoor and outdoor seating gave the place a nice rustic vibe. The staff was friendly and refilled my drink before it got close to becoming empty.

    I stopped by Intelligentsia Coffee and really enjoyed it. I ordered a matcha latte with almond milk…read moreand my husband got a cappuccino with oat milk. Both were excellent. I appreciated that the matcha can be customized. You can choose sweetened or unsweetened and even adjust the matcha strength. Since I am sensitive to caffeine I chose light matcha and it was perfect. Smooth flavor and not overly sweet. The cafe is also a really nice place to sit for a bit. There are big tables and lots of natural light which makes it feel relaxed and comfortable. The staff were nice and the drinks came out quickly. Great spot for a quality matcha or coffee in the area. I would definitely come back.

    I was already skeptic about coffee shops in the Loop, especially big chains like this but my…read morefriends & I were in desperate need of caffeine and this was the closest spot...we should have just pushed through without the caffeine. First off, the staff were nice so this review does not have to do with them. It has everything to do with the atrocious, offensive liquid that they dare call coffee. When you walk in, the space is small, humid, and dirty. The tables were all sticky with drink residue and crumbs everywhere. It's the Loop so I'll give some grace but it was pretty unpleasant. We ordered the strawberry matcha and vanilla latte. The matcha came out murky green with an attempt of making it look nice with a chaotic splattering of strawberry puree/sauce (?). It tasted like it looked...trash. You might be wondering, "Well why would you order a matcha here?" And you would be correct. In my defense, you would think that if there is a drink on the menu, it would at least be somewhat good but now that I think about it, that might be too much to ask. Now to my #1 gripe, the latte. It was watery and nearly flavorless aside from the diabolical acidic taste that assaulted my tastebuds. For context, we HATE wasting food/drink; I could probably count on one hand how many times I've done that in my life. We threw away the lattes after a few forced sips; that should tell you how nasty it was. Bad coffee, bad drinks, it happens. But paying ~$8 for each drink really does rub salt in the wound. I will NEVER drink Intelligentsia coffee again. In the grand scheme of things, my review doesn't matter but if I can warn at least one other person about the atrocities this company commits to coffee/matcha, then maybe it will make up for the waste of money & time I spent here.

    Stopped here for breakfast after our original choice was booked solid…read more Located in-line with other businesses, this isn't a large place but it was clean. I ordered the original pancakes and an iced vanilla latte. Both were good. Staff was friendly.

    While in The Loop, I was intrigued when I found out there was a Japanese soufflé pancake shop in…read morethe area. Hanabusa Cafe is a restaurant which offers soufflé pancakes and specialty drinks. Unlike in Japan where soufflé pancakes are eaten for breakfast, this is more of a dessert cafe, especially since Hanabusa opens at 9am. The place itself isn't too big and the revolving entrance door placement is a bit misleading since it is off to the side appearing to go into another business. Although tables and chairs are available, ordering is done at the register and I wouldn't exactly classify this as a sit down restaurant. I arrived on a Thursday just after noon and there were a couple parties already dining in. I ordered the earl gray and sea salt caramel soufflé pancake and was told the wait would be around twenty minutes, which was fine since I wasn't in a hurry. This arrived at the table and had earl grey tea sauce under whipped cream and sliced strawberries, blueberries, and bananas. The pancakes were denser than I expected but the earl gray sauce was definitely the star of the dish (and the main reason I ordered this); the flavor was evident without overpowering the rest of the ingredients or adding too much sweetness. The whipped cream seemed like filler, the caramel made the dish a little too sweet, and the slice fruit added flavors to the plate. Luckily I was looking at the fruit before eating since I found a pointy stem sticking out of one of the blueberries. I also didn't notice the sea salt flavor in the mix of everything on the plate. Otherwise, the plate composition was not bad. Hanabusa Cafe is a nice place that offers something unique in the area. However, I do not think it is worth coming out of your way for since the execution could be improved, especially with the removal of stems from the fruit.
