Founded in 1995, a tavola is one of the city’s best restaurants, bringing Chicago an intimate and authentic dining experience. At a tavola the emphasis is, appropriately, on the food. Authentic dishes from Italian regions are re-created using Italian cooking methods and the finest imported Italian products.

    Gnocci and cacio pepe were outstanding tomatos out of season needed grape tomato in salad to give some sweetness

    Let me start by saying the mushrooms were insanely good. But $15+ for two mushrooms is kind of crazy. The rest of the food was just ok. Ambience was great, cute spot. Will definitely do it again, but will try and do something that’s more with it.

    Everything was fantastic! This is such a cute date spot. The food was delicious- highly recommend the lamb ragu as well as the short rib, but I'm guessing you can't go wrong. Service was amazing. Thank you!

    Attentive to personal needs of diners, including allergies, reservation notes, timeline, and small comforts. Never rushed, excellently coursed. Good wine recommendations, beautiful plating; dishes with simple ingredients and preparation, but beautifully complex and layered flavors. Second best dining experience I've had in my life.
