    GNUDI DI SPINACI
    Sabrina S.

    Can't rave about this place enough. The inside was incredibly beautiful, and the view was impeccable. Every weight staff was very helpful and nice. The food was DELICIOUS!! You have to come here if visiting for the first time.

    Upscale pasta restaurant just north of the park. The entrance is on the upper level, be aware when you GPS yourself here as there are streets underground to navigate in this section of the city. Upon arrival, there is paid street parking available. Inside was nice, but it really came alive once the sun was gone. Tuscan vibes, but a little outdated. The service, was poor. The waiter was the kind of waiter that recommended the most expensive dishes on the menu instead of the ones he actually likes. There was a ton of people working yet I had my entree with no drink, not even water. The table next to us made a formal complaint about the service while we were dining. They were quick to make them happy, but it seemed like staff was avoiding our area after their complaint. My waiter would avoid eye contact when walking past my table. The food - some hits and some misses. The focaccia was too soft. The burrata tasted watery, the table side server added too much salt. The prosciutto was some of the best I've ever had. Salty and melted in your mouth. The meatballs, delicious. Great texture. Tasted like braciola. The corn pasta, light yet decadent. A must order. The beans, undercooked, horrible. The pasta of the moment, I loved the zucchini flowers, but it was very similar to the corn dish except it was over salted and too creamy. Doesn't feel dialed in. The pasta itself felt a little too al dente it needed another minute to cook. Really disappointed because I really wanted to like it. I wish the waiter would have tried to recommend I pick a pasta dish that was a little different from the one I already ordered, as I asked. The coke I ordered, $9 for off brand from a soda gun BS. The dessert, a free little treat. Delicious little bite that I wasn't expecting! Good way to wrap up the end of the meal. Overall, I think Tre Dita is overpriced. I think there are spots doing it better, for less. Good but not great.

    The vibes were great with the high ceilings, upbeat music, and beautiful dining room. It wasn't quite as dreamy as the daytime since you couldn't really see the skyline well at night, but it's still a gorgeous spot. 8/10. Service was good but nothing really stood out other than our apps coming out fast. 7/10. The Fiori di Zucca (4/10) had a thin crispy squash blossom and creamy ricotta filling, but it was lacking flavor. The Battuta di Manzo (8/10) was solid. The mini parmesan cubes were my favorite part, and the buttery toasted bread really elevated the tartare. The Strozzapreti alla Vaccinara (8.5/10) wasn't as mind-blowing as I remembered. It was a little oily, but the pasta had the perfect chewy al dente texture and the oxtail was super tender. The Linguine al Limone (8/10) was surprisingly creamy and bright from the lemon. I can definitely see why it's one of their most popular dishes. The Pesce Spada alla Ghiotta (7/10) had nicely cooked swordfish, but overall it didn't leave much of an impression. The Tre Dita Gattò (8/10) had great presentation with its chocolate shell and rich chocolate cake inside, but I wish there were a few more textures. Overall, it's a beautiful restaurant that's perfect for impressing someone. The handmade pastas are still the stars, but I didn't enjoy this visit quite as much as my first.

    Tre Dita is an absolute must-visit. From the moment you walk in, the service is warm, attentive, and genuinely authentic, making the entire experience feel special. The restaurant itself is stunning the décor is elegant with a sophisticated, high-end atmosphere that's perfect for a date night or celebration. The food absolutely lived up to the setting. Every pasta tasted fresh and homemade. We ordered the lemon pasta, the duck pasta, and the seasonal zucchini blossom pasta, and each dish had its own unique flavors while showcasing incredible quality and craftsmanship. To finish, we had the chocolate cherry cake, which was the perfect ending to an already memorable meal rich, balanced, and absolutely delicious. Between the impeccable service, beautiful ambiance, and exceptional handmade pasta, Tre Dita exceeded expectations. I would recommend it to anyone looking for an unforgettable Italian dining experience.

    My friends and I had to come back a year after our first visit because this was our favorite place we ate on that trip. Once again service was amazing, the apps, pastas, and tiramisu were all phenomenal. Will definitely come back again next Chicago visit!

    Recently we celebrated our anniversary at Tre Dita, which is located on the 2nd floor of the St. Regis Hotel.  Our daughter recommended this popular Italian restaurant because of its stunning décor and ambiance. Knowing that reservations open only two weeks in advance, I booked ours as soon as they became available and requested a window table. The restaurant certainly lived up to its reputation in terms of design. The modern décor was elegant and tasteful, and the soaring 44-foot ceilings and dramatic 40-foot windows created a spectacular setting. However, the tables were arranged rather closely together, and by the time we left, even several tables set up in the hallway outside the bar were occupied by diners. Remarkably, the restaurant was completely full despite it being a Monday evening. The biggest disappointment of the evening was not getting the window table we had requested. The hostess initially led us to a curved semi-booth facing the open kitchen, where the heat from the wood-fired grill was intense and servers were constantly rushing past to pick up dishes. I declined that table, and we were offered another 3-person semi-booth farther into the dining room. Although this area was noticeably quieter and more comfortable, and we could at least enjoy views of the impressive windows, it wasn't the window-side experience we had hoped for. Our server, David, was professional, friendly, and attentive throughout the evening. When I asked for a recommendation for a non-alcoholic beverage, he suggested the NA Aperol Spritz ($16), which was beautifully presented, pleasantly sweet, and very refreshing. My husband and daughter each ordered a glass of Prosecco ($36 for two). To start, we shared an order of Schiaciatta Bianca ($11) and Gamberi in Salsa Verde ($29). The focaccia was light, airy, and fluffy, while the prawns were fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. For my entrée, I chose the Scottadita di Agnello ($66). The lamb chops were available in only two temperatures, either medium rare or medium well, and I opted for the latter, which turned out to be the right choice. The meat was tender, juicy, and full of flavor. If the edges were browned to slightly crispy, then it would have been perfect to me. The portion included four lamb chops. I shared one with my husband and still had one left to take home, leaving just enough room for dessert. My husband ordered the Branzino ($89), which was a generous portion. He described it as "OK," though in his vocabulary, that generally means it was quite good. Our daughter chose the Linguine al Limone ($29) and absolutely loved the handmade Tuscan pasta. The portion was on the smaller side, but it turned out to be just the right amount for her. She let us each have a bite, the pasta was light with a nice lemon flavor, it's quite delightful.  For dessert, we ordered the Tiramisu ($19) and a slice of Pistacchio Cake ($21), which David had recommended. As expected, the restaurant brought us a complimentary anniversary dessert with a lit candle. However, we were pleasantly surprised when David and another server came with 4 desserts, including a complimentary Cioccolato Gatto (Devil's Cake, a $21 value)! David explained that the extra dessert was their way of making up for our not getting a window table. What a thoughtful and nice gesture! All the desserts were very good.  While the Pistacchio cake slice was delicious and had a nutty flavor, it's relatively small and not worth $21 in my opinion.  The Devil Cake was rich and scrumptious, the dark cherries that came with it were fresh and complemented the cake very well, and it was a big portion.  This might be the first time that we were too stuffed to finish all the desserts.  It was very tempting to take the leftover Tiramisu and Cioccolato Gatto home, unfortunately, they were just too messy at that point and hard to box. The total for dinner was $429.51, including the tip. The restaurant also added a 3.5% surcharge. We considered asking to have the surcharge removed and adding that amount to the tip instead, but because the serving team had been so busy all evening, we decided not to. We hope that most of the restaurant surcharge ultimately goes toward supporting the servers. Restaurant valet parking was $36 + tips with validation.  That's reasonable for the area and was convenient. All in all, we had a good and memorable anniversary dinner, I especially loved the sweet ending.  So, 4.5 stars rounding up to 5.

    Booked dinner for my bf's 30th birthday here, as I heard great things about the view and ambiance of the restaurant. Would have loved a welcome glass of Prosecco - most other Chicago restaurants offer this on a birthday which adds to the festivity. The food was great! The hostess helped us select our mains pastas which paired well with the heartier steak. I was so full by the end of the meal. They did come through with a little birthday dessert which was sweet. As we were leaving, we saw Scottie Pippen waiting for his table!

    We originally planned to stop by the bar at Tre Dita for just one drink before heading to another restaurant for dinner. The moment we stepped off the elevator onto the restaurant level from our room at the St. Regis, though, we knew our plans were about to change. The atmosphere was incredible. The place was buzzing with people, the energy was lively, and the space is absolutely beautiful. We managed to grab two seats at the bar and were greeted almost immediately by the attentive bartenders. I ordered the Hugo Spritz, and my husband had a Negroni. We honestly weren't planning on staying long, so I didn't even bother taking photos at first. Then we ordered the braised short rib meatballs... and that was the turning point. They were hands down one of the best appetizers we've had. In fact, I might go back today just for those meatballs! After that, we decided to stay for dinner. We shared the New York strip and the tagliatelle al ragù. The pasta was absolutely phenomenal--rich, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. The steak was good, though not quite as memorable as everything else, but honestly, we didn't care. Between the amazing food, the cocktails, the lively atmosphere, and the gorgeous setting, the entire experience was fantastic. If you're staying at the St. Regis or just looking for a great night out in Chicago, I highly recommend grabbing a seat at the bar at Tre Dita. It ended up being one of our favorite dining experiences of the trip.

    Videos don't do the entry into the main dining room justice. Everything just went up from there. If we were not getting a 32 ounce steak, we probably would've ordered more bread because that was the star of the show. The linguine was a little too lemony for us, but still an amazing pasta does our personal tastes. The rigatoni might've been the best tasting pasta I've ever had. The sauce just added an extra flavor that made that dish disappear quickly. Then there was the 60 day 32 ounce bone and ribeye. Done perfectly with little char on top. It did have a one or two fatty pieces, but I was too full to care at the end of the meal.

    My husband and I came here to celebrate after our wedding and had a reservation for dinner. Overall, there were a few dishes we really enjoyed, but the meal as a whole didn't quite live up to our expectations. I chose this restaurant because he loves the building as it's very unique. The focaccia bianca was excellent when served fresh. It arrived warm, soft, and incredibly comforting. We also ordered the squash blossoms, which were delicious at first, though they became a bit too heavy and oily after a few bites. The grilled asparagus, which was the special of the day, was fine but not particularly memorable. My favorite dish of the night was the cacio e pepe. The pasta was perfectly cooked and full of flavor. We also ordered the steak strip, which was cooked to a perfect medium and exactly how we like it. Unfortunately, the tiramisu was the biggest disappointment. It tasted noticeably sour, which wasn't something I expected, and I wasn't a fan at all. On the bright side, the staff thoughtfully brought out an extra dessert to help celebrate our wedding. It was delicious and a very kind gesture that we appreciated. While the service was amazing/topnotch and the celebratory dessert was a nice touch, the overall food experience felt fairly average for the price point. There were a few standout dishes, but not enough to for me to return. The ambiance is really nice and we were seated by the windows where we were able to see the river and Navy Pier. Just unfortunate that the food wasn't up to our standard that night.

    Came here to celebrate my husband's birthday, and overall I'd give it 3 stars. The restaurant itself is beautiful and has a great atmosphere. It was packed on the night we visited, which speaks to its popularity. Service was excellent throughout the evening friendly, attentive, and accommodating. To start, we ordered the focaccia bread and burrata salad. Both were delicious. The focaccia was easily one of my favorite parts of the meal, especially with the generous amount of Parmesan on top. The burrata was fresh and flavorful, although I do wish it came with some toasted bread or crostini to complement it. For dinner, we ordered two 8 oz filets, the ricotta ravioli, cacio e pepe, and lamb chops. The steaks were cooked beautifully juicy, tender, and exactly the temperature we requested. However, I felt like nearly everything was heavily salted. The pasta dishes and steaks all seemed to have an excessive amount of salt, which overpowered some of the flavors. The cacio e pepe was also a surprisingly small portion for the price. The lamb chops were probably my least favorite dish of the evening. The sauce itself was tasty, but the lamb lacked flavor and just didn't stand out the way I expected it to. For dessert, we ordered the Devil's Food Cake. It was enjoyable, but I'd recommend asking about the dessert ingredients beforehand, as some options contain alcohol. The staff was accommodating and able to make modifications when possible. A couple things were disappointing for a birthday celebration. We adjusted our reservation a few hours beforehand and arrived around 9:30 PM, but weren't seated until nearly 9:55 PM. I understand they were busy, but it was still a bit frustrating. I was also surprised there wasn't any acknowledgment of the birthday no candle or small celebratory touch. Overall, the service and ambiance were the highlights of the experience. While there were some dishes I enjoyed, the food felt overpriced for what we received, especially considering the portion sizes and heavy seasoning. I'd consider returning for the atmosphere and appetizers, but I don't think it lived up to the expectations of a special occasion dinner.

    This is my new favorite Italian restaurant! The texture of the pastas were all amazing. We started off with a few mocktails. I liked both La Pernaccia and Garibaldi-ish, but La Pernaccia was on the sour side so I liked Garibaldi-ish better. The meatballs was brisket texture, it was good. We had the patate fritte as well and I loved this side dish. I can probably finish it on my own... We got 3 pastas. First we had the papardelle al cinghiale and it had wild boar. It was good. Second we had the strozzapreti alla vaccinara and that was with oxtail. This was my favorite pasta!!!! The pasta was a little chewy (which I enjoyed) and it is not too salty or anything. I will definitely get this again. Lastly we had rigatoni con guanciale e pomodorini and it was good too. It was a little more salty tho. Would be amazing if it isn't as salty. The tomatoes were very juicy. Then we had dessert which I did not include in photos. We had the tre dita gatto which was like a choco cake and it's got some dark cherries on the side. It adds a nice touch. The chocolate itself would've been too sweet, but with cherries it was amazing. I'm not a big sweets person normally but I really enjoyed this cake. It was suppppper smooth. The atmosphere was nice and the view was beautiful. Our server was very attentive as well. This is my new favorite spot and I can't wait to try other dishes!

    Beautiful interior at blue hour

    Revisited for Mother's Day weekend this year and it did not disappoint! If youre having trouble finding a reservation, I recently learned you can snag an easy one in the main room if you have a Mastercard. Just type in Google "Tre Dita Mastercard" and it should pop up - super easy! Ordered the GAMBERI IN SALSA VERDE since I saw a bunch of people love that and it was also recommended by the waiter. Really good - idk how they made that green sauce, but I was drinking it by the spoon haha. Wish I would've ordered the bread to soak it all up. We also ordered the PICI CACIO E PEPE, STROZZAPRETI ALLA VACCINARA and GNUDI DI SPINACI pastas. All were amazing! You can tell the pasta is handmade and it is thick and has such a lovely chew to it. Seriously tastes like elevated homemade pasta. The oxtail rage one had to be my favorite, but the cacio e pepe was a very close second. Last but definitely not least, for dessert we ordered the TRE DITA GATTÒ & highly recommended by the waiter DOLCE AL PISTACCHIO. Honestly, I had seen so much rave on the chocolate cake online I was so excited for that one, BUT that Pistachio CAAAAAKKKE. O.M.G. That one blew me away. With all the Dubai chocolate pistachio cream hype, I was expecting a sugar bomb, but this was nothing like that. This cake was sooooo good and very subtly sweet. It had such a rich nutty flavor to it - easily my favorite dish of the night! The service was amazing, we were seated by the window with a beautiful view of the city. We arrived before sunset and left at dark - it was so beautiful to see the vibes change in real time. Once again, if you're looking to go out for a special occasion, this is the spot!

The onion rings were the frozen crumbly kind not the fresh beer battered kind and so that's a big "no!" for me. The dipping sauce was okay. Service was friendly and I think the guy was new but it wasn't good enough for a place like that at the top of the building. There were two servers so I'm guessing one was training maybe. They didn't make it to my table to check to see if everything was okay while I was eating and it even took them a while to notice that I was done eating. It's was slow so I don't think they were stressing with too many tables. That kind of place should knock your socks off - but it was on the low end of mediocre. I wouldn't go there again for food. Maybe it's a decent place to go to the bar but since I don't drink I can't help much on that end.

    Great food, drinks, and view. We came on a Sunday and ordered some drinks to start, as well as…read moreBrussels sprouts. There were a small portion but delicious. Not too crispy but still tasty. We also shared the half chicken and Ceasar salad with shrimp. There were only 3 pieces of shrimp for the extra money we spent; but otherwise the food was delicious. Definitely on the pricier side because of the rooftop and area.

    Was craving a burger and a beer and with such a cool name, how could I not check this place out! I…read moresat at the bar around 5pm and it wasn't very busy. They played good music and wasn't too loud. You could easily carry on a conversation or , like me, continue listening to a podcast. By the time I finished, the place was completely full and a bit noisy, but not bad. I started out with a 10oz Birds of Prey Pilsner. It was very nice. Light and crisp and very easy to drink. I followed that up with Melodious Maibock and ordered the CBG burger with fries. I didn't have lunch so I dove right in and forgot to snap a photo. It was a very good smash burger. It was cooked well and I really liked the combination of pickled onion and caramelized onion. I didn't see it until later but you can add bacon. As much as I loved this burger, bacon would totally take it up a notch! I started chatting with the bartender about their different beers and decided to have the Super Melodious Jalapeño Maibock with the burger. It's soooo different, but in a good way. It paired so well with the burger. You get green bell pepper on the nose and a hint of it on the palate. When you swallow you get a little heat at the back of the throat. It was so good! Great bar. Great food. Great beer. Go check them out!

    Good, not great, beer…read more Good, not great, service. Awesome location! We only came for beer and sat at a table (bar was full). This place seems to be much better as a dinner spot. If you want to hang out at a brewery and drink amazing beer, I'd probably choose one of the other breweries in town.

    Order the Guinness first. Ours came out exactly the way a pint should, an unhurried pour, cool and…read morecreamy with a proper head on it, and that one glass told us the people behind this bar take the details seriously. Now the honest part, because I think it helps to know before you walk in. We came in hunting for an old Dublin snug, the dark wood and low ceiling and worn brass kind of place, and D4 is not that. To be fair to them, they never claimed to be. The room is modeled after a Dublin townhome, bright and open, traditional details sitting alongside modern ones, with two fireplaces and a garden patio out back. It is handsome and it is comfortable, and it also reads more American pub than Irish local. If you were hoping to feel like you ducked in off a rainy side street in Ballsbridge, set your expectations accordingly. The room was the one letdown of our night. The kitchen made up the ground. The fish and chips are enormous, easily enough for two, beer battered Icelandic cod that arrived crisp and clean instead of heavy and slick, which is a lot harder to pull off than it looks. Add the shoestring fries with truffle aioli on the side. Worth knowing, and it earns them some credit on the authenticity question: this is a neighborhood-owned place that has been on Ohio Street since 2007, and co-owner Brendan McNeill is actually from Ballsbridge, right inside the Dublin 4 postcode the name comes from. Four stars. If you want atmosphere that feels imported from Ireland, keep looking. If you want a perfect pint of Guinness and a genuinely good plate of fish and chips in Streeterville, this will take good care of you.

I cannot taste any sweetness from it... We ordered large portions of appetizers: cocktail shrimps, house chips and fruit salad. So when it came to the actual dinner, we were all full... I ended up with a chopped salad, which turned out to be good. (Not that it contains peanuts.)
