Saw all the great reviews and stopped in at 6:00pm on a Friday. We did not have a reservation but…read morewere able to be seated. This is a family owned restaurant and from the second we walked in, it felt so warm and homey. My daughter had a bloody nose and the owner first thing asked if we needed an ice pack and was so kind. We weren't even aware she was the owner at the time. Later on in our meal she came by to check in to see how my daughter was doing as well as how the food and our dining experience was. Our waitress, who was one of the owners daughter was extremely attentive and warm. Throughout our meal she would check in to see how things were and if she could take away any of our plates. Service was phenomenal. Now onto the food. Started with the garlic bread and grilled octopus. Garlic bread had a nice crunch exterior and softness in the middle. It was buttery and garlicky and good. The grilled octopus was super tender and had a char to it. I personally prefer more of a char but it was still very good. The tomatoes were slightly blistered and again, for my tastes would have preferred a little more char but I would easily order it again. Pasta dishes came with a choice of lemon chicken chowder or minestrone. Both soups were pretty chunky and had good taste. The margarita pizza dough was nice a chewey with a slight char from the brick oven. It was a little wet for some reason but tasted good. The spaghetti with bolanese had good flavor and the sauce was quite hearty. Overall you could tell from all the dishes that they were made from scratch. Bontà really delivers on food and service. I can't wait to come in for lunch to try their sandwiches. Parking is plenty as they are located in a strip mall.

Unfortunately, this was not a great experience. The food was overcooked and lacked the quality I…read morewould expect from an Italian restaurant. The biggest issue, however, was the music. Live music should enhance the dining experience, not make it difficult to enjoy your meal and company. We didn't hear it at all. Overall, the combination of disappointing food and under noise made this a 2 out of 5 experience for me. I would not be rushing back.

It came in a large bowl of iceberg lettuce with onions, black olives and tomatoes.

We also had chicken scampi, chicken alfredo and spaghetti with marinara. And of course the breadsticks, soft and garlicky. Overall the food was good, packaged to retain the heat and enjoyed by all.

Even though it was busy, the line moved quickly, and the employees were friendly and efficient. The food was fresh, hot, and full of flavor. Everything tasted like it was made to order, and the portions were generous. It's easy to see why Portillo's has such a loyal following because the quality and consistency really stand out. Overall, this is one of my favorite places to grab a meal. Great food, fast service, and a welcoming atmosphere make Portillo's well worth the visit. I'll definitely be back again.

The decor inside is always so fun for each location. You can either order at the kiosk or walk up to the counter and wait for your number to be called. My go to is the beef and cheddar with hot peppers and their classic cheese fries. You can't go wrong with their classics. They also have decent ribs, you will need to wait about 20 minutes or so for it but it's delish if you've got the time! Although I've been convinced that I need to try their pasta with vodka sauce with chicken. That might be the next move. All in all, I love this location because it's always a perfect dinner spot when we're done running our target errands. Their drive through line always look long but we've never waited more than 5 - 10 minutes to order and get our food both drive thru and inside.

So we had to spend some additional time reviewing the regular menu to pick out some items. The waitress who was great did apologize for the issue. We started the evening with the Cherry Pepper Calamari. I thought it was pretty good, especially the bites with the peppers. I ordered the Dinner-Cut Pork Chop and it was just amazing. So soft and delicious. My wife ordered the Certified Upper Choice Ribeye and she said it was very good and cooked just the way she asked for it. We shared the Loaded Whipped Potatoes which were very nice. I also had a Perry Berry Mule and a Rare Rita. Both were fantastic, amongst the best I have ever had. We finished the meal with a Fudgy Chocolate Cake which was rich and very tasty. All in all, a great and memorable evening.

Stunningly delicious. Sliders were good and the star of the show was the steak and tater tots. Top it off with great $9 app price tag and we ate like kings.

The restaurant is located in a cute little downtown area, and we had a wonderful time sitting outside on their patio. There is also a convenient parking lot right across the street, which made arrival a breeze. The service throughout our visit was fantastic. When I informed our server that I have celiac disease, they were attentive and accommodating. I ordered a glass of the Moscato and the gluten-free rigatoni, and it turned out to be one of the best plates of GF pasta I have ever had! I also really appreciated that they explicitly acknowledged my dish as gluten-free when it was set down at the table. Regarding the menu and bread service, items are not specifically marked as gluten-free on the menu, though a gluten-free pasta substitution is available. They didn't have or offer gluten-free bread for the table, and instead brought out regular bread. Overall, this is a fantastic spot for patio dining with incredible gluten-free pasta and attentive servers. With just a bit more awareness regarding dedicated GF bread for celiac guests, it would easily be a five-star experience. I will definitely be back!

The first tricky part is finding the entrance because it's not really obvious as expected in long grove There's no real signs. Further, the next tricky piece is finding parking if you can get it on the street or find it in the lot now luckily both are free. Once I managed to find a door to the place, it turned out to be the back door and so I had to climb up a bunch of stairs in order to get to the front part of the restaurant to actually check in for the reservation. And yes, please make a reservation. This place does get packed even for early times. The service was really friendly and very nice however, I will say overall the food was OK but nothing really standoffish. For example, if you look at the pictures of the food quite bluntly it just looks like they slapped food onto a plate. There's really no thought that's been put into the presentation. There's really been no thought also to just the pure amounts of cheese and sauce that are also creating a swimming pool on the plate. We ordered the grilled octopus for appetizer and even that was swimming in olive oil and balsamic vinaigrette and too much of everything I think the food is OK but nothing fantastic. Considering the overly saturated Chicagoland market of Italian restaurants I wouldn't necessarily say this was at the top of my list.

The waiter checked on me throughout and was prompt. I ordered the cheesy beef sandwich that comes with fries and soft drink for a very reasonable price. But before my food arrived a loaf of warm bread with butter and Parmesan came to the table. This is exactly what makes a place 5 stars. The extra little bit! The bread was perfect. Crisp exterior with a warm flavorful center. My cheesy beef came out pretty quickly and was also on an excellent bread. The beef was tender and flavorful and even though a serving of au jus was provided, I actually liked it better without. The fries were hot and crispy with chives sprinkled on top? Also wonderful. This is a great place for lunch for sure. Worth the trip.

First of all when you enter through the revolving door that entrance area is so cramped and so tiny partially due to the pick up area being set up there along with the Amazon area being set up there as well. I wish this place had a bigger footprint in order to make that entrance more welcoming as well as more accommodating for the amount of foot traffic that they have my second complaint here is that every time I come here anytime I come anywhere near the seafood cases the entire area, including the vitamin area smell smells like fish now this might be due to poor ventilation, or it could be due to bad quality fish, but this has been very consistent at the smell fish outside of the fish area is disturbing. However, let me just say that this place is incredible. I keep coming back here because of the great selection the great layout and I still believe in some of the Whole Foods high-quality all natural healthy products.
