    Found this cute spot before we flew out of O'Hare, and we hit the jackpot. We got there early so it was pretty empty, but that was no indication of how great the food and service was. It has a modern and classy aesthetic. We sat in a very comfortable booth with 4. The service was attentive, good came out quickly. We had the burrata app, muscles and a beer salad to start. Amazing- only thing is it isn't to ate season so can't hold that against them. The main course we had the seafood risotto, rigatoni, a mushroom tagliatelle and we thought we ordered a truffle pasta. They brought a different pasta and once we said we wanted the truffle, they said no problem, left the lobster tagliatelle and brought the truffle as well. They did not charge for the extra meal! Each pasta was better than the last. Highly recommend this spot to locals and visitors!

    Everything about this place was great! The food was delicious and the service was amazing. We all ended up ordering different dishes and shared them. Proportions are moderately sized and we ended up taking leftovers for the next day. Staff is super kind and ended up bringing out limoncello for us all to try.

    Branzino fillets in white wine sauce Fantastic!

    We found a real gem!!! The restaurant packed on Monday evening is a very good sign Under the new ownership for 3 years, this neighborhood favorite is shining! We absolutely loved everything: warm and personal greeting by the owner, the cozy atmosphere of the small neighborhood restaurant, the non pushy and warm welcoming service and , of course, the most important the wonderful cuisine. I ordered branzino from the special menu. It was served perfectly prepared with the well balanced sauce and melting in the mouth texture. My husband's veal parmigiana was abundant, carefully seasoned and not heavy in comparison with the other Italian restaurants. The half-priced on Monday bottle of wine of the excellent wine list complemented our great dinner. We finished our culinary experience with delicious gelato. This restaurant is a must if you like Italian cuisine! I highly recommend! Cannot wait to come back to try new dishes!

    Top Italian restaurant in the area This place is new as of 2023, in the old Gaetano's location. Highly recommend a reservation as it's not a big space. The tables are packed relatively tightly and the noise level is fairly high. Food was excellent. They bring fresh focaccia bread with a humus dip when you first sit down. They have an excellent wine selection as well. We got the pollo Milanese, veal with lemon caper sauce, tonno carpaccio, and a traditional spaghetti with tomato sauce (plus one bottle of red wine, $140 pre-tip). Each plate was outstanding. The menu has a lot of diversity to it without being endless. Very impressed and will be back asap

    Tagliatelle con Aragosta

    Food was 10 out of 10! So glad that we found this place, because I feel like this is my new go-to for AUTHENTIC pasta. It was our first time here and the pastas we ordered were DELISH and SAVORY! I got the Tagliatelle, and figured I'd only get one lobster tail, but boy oh boy, I got TWO! Husband got the Rigatoni and he thought it was very flavorful, and a good ratio of noodles to meat/sauce. Though not listed on the menu, they were able to accommodate a small butter/parm spaghetti for our toddler. We got there before the dinner rush, and they were able to seat us right away. From the photos, we thought we were super under dressed in our athleisure attire, but we got there and did not feel as so. We will be back!

    I want to hear last night and we didn't have a reservation, but we are promptly seated in a booth. The ambience and decor in the restaurant is very modern, chic, and bright. The sweet staff is very knowledgeable and helpful. They bring out really good bread and this oil Parmesan dip first starters that was pretty good. They recommended trying the calamari, and I can't recommend it enough. The sauce that is used for the calamari is delectable. I ordered the pasta dish with lobster and shrimp and my date ordered the pasta with beef and cheese. Both are very good and super filling. I would definitely go back and try some thing else. The only thing I would recommend is having more mood lighting and warmth for the dinner hours.

    Great weekend lunch place. All of the food was fresh and tasty. Service was friendly but not overwhelming. It was conversation friendly. Dress code is casual. We were told if you like anything from the dinner menu, they would prepare it for you

The bread service was fantastic. The tomato focaccia and the baguette were both excellent and I had to remind myself not to fill up on it before the main meal! LOL! We started with the calamari which was very well seasoned and clearly not the typical frozen version you often see from foodservice distributors. It tasted fresh, was crispy, and well prepared. For dinner I ordered the margherita pizza which was simple and delicious. I ended up ordering a second one to-go for my partner who couldn't make it to dinner. He also loved it - even after it sat for ~30 min or so while we chatted more, then drove home to the Maywood area. I would imagine their delivery is pretty good based on that! My mom had the rigatoni vodka with added crumbled Italian sausage which she loved, and my dad ordered the Marcelino. He loved the generous amount of seafood and how well seasoned it was. My parents are big wine drinkers and my dad was especially impressed with the wine list and the selection available. Oscar was an incredible server!! He struck the perfect balance of being attentive while still letting us enjoy a relaxed, unhurried evening. The support staff and food runners were also fantastic and very friendly, making the entire service experience feel polished! I also loved the kitchen was more open which gives you confidence in the quality and care that goes into the food. The dining space is inviting with a nice bar area and an additional room that looks perfect for busy nights or private gatherings. Overall a great restaurant that we would absolutely return to!!

I loved that they had a small outdoor patio to enjoy the weather and be connected with the busy downtown. Their menu had starters, pastas, pizzas, and entrees in a curated format. They serve wine and beer regularly but have a rotating specials menu for cocktails and food. Our server let us know that the bruschetta rotates weekly which is cool. For mains, I got the Ricotta Gnocchi. All of that pastas are clearly homemade. The gnocchi was certainly pillowy and paired nicely with the creamy truffle sauce. My husband got the Orecchiette pasta which could have had a more prominent sauce to it. Overall, the pasta was fresh and ingredients tasted of good quality. The portions for price point seemed a little off as dishes didn't come with a bread basket nor side salad. I wish we would have gotten either a bit more pasta or something else to make the price feel of value. Either way, this was a nice spot to enjoy good company at. Our server, Nina, could not have been nicer and more attentive to our group.

They do have a semi-private back area for smaller celebrations. I'd say attire is a bit dressier than your casual wear given the vibes. Complimentary bread and oil with Parmesan cheese to start. The bread was warm and moist, not hard like most Italian bread I've had. APPS: I would definitely recommend the calamari and meatballs for appetizers. Calamari was perfectly breaded and tender, not chewy like most, and came with 3 dipping sauces. The meatballs were moist and covered in cheese and meat sauce. Entrees: the rigatoni bolognese was the fan favorite of the table! Also had the beet salad and pork tenderloin and all of them were 10/10. Dessert: Tiramisu, salted caramel gelato, and fried donuts. All of the them were great, especially the fried donuts that come complimentary for buying a dessert. I was somewhat surprised by how good they were with the gelato. Service was quick and great, no complaints. Looking forward to coming back in the summer and sitting on the patio. Think this will be my new favorite Italian spot in Oak Park!
