Decent food but relatively pricey and less amount for what you can get in surrounding area that tastes relatively better. Food came pretty fast, friendly service but harder to find server once things got busy. For example, water took a while to refill after we finished the bottle. read more

I was a little disappointed given the price point. My bolognese was good, but not great. The pizza was fresh and clearly made in house, but I also couldn't really justify paying over $30 for each of these dishes since they didn't really wow me overall. I love the ambience and the service was good. Sadly, I probably won't come back after this. -AD read more

Love a good Italian food. Great food and cocktails. The cocktails weren't super fancy, yet delicious. The pizza was super tasty. The service was great and quick too. The ambiance was good, not super fancy but more like a fancy food court but ala carte. read more

I used to work at the Le Creuset boutique which used to be right next door to Eataly, but is now closed. On my breaks I would go over to grab a coffee, gelato, to-go packaged lunch and peruse the all the amazing Italian culinary offerings. Good times. Fast forward to Mother's Day 2025... my sweet daughter, in conjunction with a good friend, booked a dinner for us at Vino and we had a great meal and a great time. However, I'll have to say, our original server kept giving us strange looks after each request. As a former restaurant cook, I hear all the server complaints and I try so very hard to not be THAT person. However, our server kept pausing after anything we asked for additional. He was especially weirdish to my male friend, which we all tried to brush off as...well, weird.. But a few minutes later, a new server appeared and said she'd be taking over. She was very charming, accommodating and provided excellent service. When we asked what happened to the other guy, she laughed and said he had to go home. Oh really? Ok... On to the food...everything we had was excellent. For starters, we shared two orders of the calamari and the rucola salad. Delicious. For entrees, we had the whole branzino, the mushroom tagliatelle and the pasta with lobster special. Everything was spectacular! This place may be a tourist trap but it's one I'll gladly go back to! read more

My family and I ate here last night. Food was absolutely delicious! Our waiter was very friendly and helpful with when it came to the menu. He also made sure we never ran out of drinks, and asked if we needed anything often. This place is pretty big, with plenty of seating, and very well lit. We will definitely be back when we visit Chicago. read more

The Carbonara is to die for. The waiter was a gem. He recommended wine to go with my meal and it was not something I would have normally ordered but he did a great job. My daughter is not big on pasta so she had the wagyu burger which she said was great but she really adored the fries. The restaurant is in the middle of shopping, it's a little noisy. But I think it's intentional. Makes it seem less uptight even though it is a very nice place. Like it's living, there's energy here. Can't explain it but if you don't like... accessibility it might not be for you. read more

Great place , amazing food . Staff is excellent . I'll recommend to anyone - if you want great food and atmosphere visit will love it !!!

While visiting Eataly's store to shop, we made reservations for Vino & inside the Eataly Chicago. Our time was for 1:30PM and we got there a little early, but they took us right away, even though they were busy. Our server, Brian was great... Very helpful and attentive. I had questions about wine and he did a little checking with others to get the answers I needed. He also did a great job explaining the way various items were prepared. We started with their focaccia, which was made fresh to order and was incredibly soft, tasty, and came with a nice, light EVOO to dip into. Next up was a Margherita pizza, which came out with little delay and was beautiful! The flavors were great and it had a nice, slight char to parts of the crust. The toppings were great and the sauce was very fresh and flavorful. We really loved it! For an entrée we split their tagliatelle Bolognese... it was the perfect amount to split (especially for lunch). The pasta was perfectly al dente and the sauce was excellent! A friend of ours joined us and got the branzino, which he loved... I tried it and it was really fresh and tasty. The service was beautifully plated! Food and service was great... prices were decent... Definitely worth stopping in!! read more

My family and I came here for dinner on a Sunday night during the summer. We were going to eat at one of the other restaurants within Eataly, but they had a super long wait. Vino had a very similar menu, so we decided to give it a try since it's open seating. The tables are super tiny and we were worried about food falling the entire meal. We ordered the verde salad to start. Nothing was super special about this, but I did like the watermelon radish. We also got the Nerano pizza, which had zucchini. The pizza was super soggy and just not right. We also got the tagliolini al limone pasta. I liked the slight lemon flavor of this pasta. All of the portions were small and so overpriced for what we got. We also ordered a wine flight, which came after the food came. Service was pretty bad and restaurant just seemed unorganized. read more

My family and I went to Vino & for dinner and had a great experience. The service was fast and friendly, the wine options were plentiful and the quality of all the pasta and pizza dishes we tried were great. Punctuating this, the prices were quite good and nothing felt much pricier than any number of chain Italian restaurants. My only critique is that I do believe the ambiance of Vino & was not particularly spectacular. It was situated between another restaurant and the center of the second floor of Eataly which was a bit awkward. Overall, however, really great.

We sat at Vino and I'm not the type of person to write reviews, but I just had to for this place. We had amazing service, she was very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. I will say everything is expensive. We paid almost $100 for 3 things. We requested to see a manager to tell them about how dirty the bathrooms are. Unfortunately, we never spoke with one because she was not able to find one for us. I would've given it a 5 star rating but the things we had issues with were sanitary concerns. The bathrooms are so dirty and there wasn't even soap in the restrooms, the place overall also looks disorganized, just look at what we saw! This is such a bad look for their establishment. We started to mistrust the cleanliness of everything after we left. read more

reading the reviews i was beginning to regret my decision to make a reservation here. however, we had a great experience. came for an early dinner on a sunday before a show at the cadillac palace theater. the service was great and the food, though expensive was really tasty. we had the chicken milanese, butternut squash ravioli and davila pizza. nothing crazy out of this world, but a good meal none the less. ambiance was interesting seeing as the restaurant is in the middle of the store (but sectioned off). give this place a shot! it is just as expensive as many of the other italian restaurants in river north and the food is really tasty! read more

Loved the fresh bread with rosemary olive oil, it was soft and warm when it came out! We ordered the pesto pizza and it was good, but slightly bland and the middle of the pizza was a bit soggy. I agree with the other reviews stating that the tables were pretty small and a bit uncomfortable. read more

We had an amazing experience at Eataly in Chicago! It's a huge and has a grocery, wine, food stalls, desserts, fresh pasta and breads, etc! We stopped by Eataly and were so surprised by all the offerings. We decided to eat at Vino &, which is located upstairs. It's an open restaurant surrounded by other restaurants and food stalls with fresh offerings. Our server explained items come out at different times since different stalls make the food. The menu has wine, antipasti, pizza, and pasta offerings. We started with cocktails and wine. Warning - this place is on the pricey side! I ordered the sparking wine flight for $25 and was surprised by the amount and the different types of wine I was offered. Would recommend if you like sparking and want to try something different. Food - We started with the burrata ($23) and focaccia ($8). It was beautiful and so delicious. We ended up ordering another focaccia, because it was small and the best focaccia I've ever had! It was light and fluffy and paired perfectly with the burrata. For our entrees, my friends ordered the Cavolo Nero salad ($19) with added chicken. The portion was large, but they didn't love the protein. I chose the Tagliolini al Limone ($22) and loved the fresh pasta and bright flavor of the lemon zest and basil. A delightful, but expensive meal. Would highly encourage you to check out Eatlaly! read more

A true 3.5 rating. It was a packed night, but we still had good service with a reservation. Overall it has great ambiance, very beautiful presentation of food, and it was a nice romantic date. However, I didn't feel the value of the food we were getting was worth the price. I found the flavors a little lacking. For example, the hanger steak came with grilled onions and it was quite a strong flavor that wasn't enjoyable. read more

I adore the whole concept of Eataly that worships Italian food and vino in such a noisy and bustling way. But who is my main server? I did not like the "team" approach at all. Hard to get someone's attention from beginning to end at Vino &. I am patient and was, but that is my con. Delicious flight of whites finally poured and things start looking up. Three great wines and each a full glass--good value and great flavors. The peperonella pizza was fabulous. Half saved for lunch next day. Bought some wine and other treats from the markets. In downtown for a conference and so nice having Eataly a few feet from hotel. I adored Lydia's TV cooking show and some of her family's restaurants in Manhattan. They have built a good Roman Empire in US. I want to buy some of their caviar for Easter...but just too $$$. Maybe I'll change my mind! read more

I had a wonderful experience eating at Vino & Eataly. I was so surprised to find out that they had a gluten free pasta substitute and also had a gluten free pizza crust! I ordered the tagliolini Al limone with gluten free noodles and the sauce was bright and creamy. The noodles also held up very well for being gluten free. I also ordered the norcina without sausage on a gluten free crust. The crust was so light and airy I was concerned that it wasn't gluten free! As someone who eats gluten I would have had no idea this was a gluten free crust. The pizza itself was delicious and perfectly balanced. Service was quick and my server was really sweet about making substitutions/edits to the dishes. I will most definitely be stopping in again as I was really really impressed with this space. read more

Was pleasantly surprised with how good the food was as we had assumed the appeal was the wine. The environment is very open concept, you seat yourself, and the staff was quick to come by once we sat. We had both focaccias to start and were all blown away by how fresh it was! The favorite was definitely the Focaccia Rossa al Pomodoro, so if you're debating between the two i'd go with that one. As for the Ravioli di Piselli con Prosciutto, I thought it was actually comparable to the ravioli I had in Italy- mostly because you could tell it was homemade & there is a very light portion of sauce (as opposed to many Italian places in the city that drown the pasta in it). I myself didn't try the wine but my friend had the Pinot Grigio they recommended and thought it was good as well. Definitely will be coming back now that I know this isn't just a good place for wine! read more

The food, drinks, and service was excellent. Fernando was our waiter and gave us great recommendations and we had a wonderful time.

The service was the worst!! We had a reservation at 7:30, it was 8pm and the sever finally came, no water or anything. The worst part... food was not even good and it was our anniversary they did not check on us at all, we finished our water and they never came with more. I understand it was busy but other people were treated better than us read more

Absolutely terrible. 30 dollar each plate. Staff were so rude they will not serve u a utensil. Treat us as thought they are looking down on us. Would give zero star if possible. Never eat here if u have other choice read more

We were craving some delicious Italian food that Chicago is so well known for. I've always wanted to eat at Eataly, but didn't have a chance when we lived there! Since we were staying in the area, we thought it would be the perfect occasion. The menu is by no means expansive, but there are a handful of items that even a picky eater can choose from! There were lots of wines to pair with your meal for those looking to wine and dine! I chose the handmade gnocchi. The dish was delicious!! The portions were tiny for the price. I feel like you'd need to order 1 entree and an appetizer! read more

We visited Vino & and *will* be back because of Fernando A. The food was good, what you might expect from a place like Vino &-- simple, but fresh and made with good quality ingredients. Fernando was exceptional-- professional, but playful and and joy to have around. He checked in on us over the course of our meal; very attentive without hovering, which seems hard these days as waiters are either almost intrusive or completely ignore guests. Again, the food was enjoyable, but had it not been for Fernando A, the experience would've been forgettable. We hope to come back and eat here many more times, so long as Fernando is around! Thank You Fernando! :) read more

Just a phenomenal evening! Everything from the recommendations to the banter to the grated parm made the experience a true joy.

I don't know what happened to this place but the service the past couple of years has been absolute garbage. Party of 5, came in for lunch and it was very slow. It took them 15 minutes to greet the table. Once they did they gave us water and said nothing. The waiter then came back and just asked if we're ready. No greeting, no suggestions, didn't even ask if we wanted drinks. We didn't see the waiter again until we flagged him down for the check. He returned w the credit card machine and just set it down, saying nothing. Food was fine, not good, not great, fine. I wouldn't come back. read more

This evening I stopped for dinner at the round bar upstairs and ordered the spaghetti pomodoro. The quality of the dish was on point as (almost) all ingredients are imported.

Sophia and Bruce are the best thank you!!! I ordered the pollo Milanese - my favorite to order and the wine, Edda, recommended by Sophia was excellent.

To say I was underwhelmed would be generous. Each of our party spent 150-200 for an average to lame dining experience. In no way was the pasta fresh. If it was, then I wouldn't have complained in any form or manner. Because fresh pasta makes a pasta dish amazing. Everything served is from a can and microwaved. I can't respect this place. read more

So for starters, the server was very nice and had lots of recommendations which we appreciated. It's a fun place to visit and the vibe is great. Drinks were fine and we didn't have to wait long for them. The rosemary focassia bread was delicious. Unfortunately all of our main courses were fairly underwhelming for the cost and hype. One person had the linguine and clams and enjoyed it. Everyone else felt underwhelmed. The rucola salad w/chicken was "too much arugula and not enough of anything else", the tagliolini al limone was "bland", and I ordered the tagliatelle alla bolognese per the recommendation of our server. It was very underwhelming. I've had more flavor at an Olive Garden. It lists an ingredient "18-month Agriform Parmigiano Reggiano" which was by far the best thing about this dish, but it was about 3 chunks of it. The rest was bland marinara and minimal pork and beef, with a ton of pasta. read more
