Excellent food and drinks! House chianti is excellent, as are the bartender-recommended cocktails. We were socially distant, safe and warm and we look forward to returning.
We are so happy that you enjoyed! Thank you for the review.
Absolutely delicious! staff created a safe environment with a lot of cleaning and precautions. Highly suggest the brussel sprouts!
Sophia, The safety of our team and guests alike is a top priority. Thank you so much for taking the time to review our restaurant!
Just moved my son into chicago!
Our experience was fabulous! The food was amazing. We lucked out with great weather in November for outdoor seating, and our waiter was wonderful. Was attentive and knew the menu well. He even was kind enough to take a picture for us at the end of our meal.
Thank you!
Loved the happy hour wine deal as well as the garlic bread
Thanks Maddie!
Food was delicious and so were the drinks. I had a chicken Parmesan and it was amazing followed up with a tiramisu for dessert! Wish they had one in Atlanta.
Get the cheese bread!! Chicken Marsala a little bland. Chocolate cake amazing. Not a large selection of beer
Great food, felt very safe with windows open and outside seating, just a super windy night.
Went here for a Saturday night dinner with friends who were in town. Service was excellent, server was friendly, funny and charming. Great recommendations for wine and food. Food was excellent as always and the outdoor dining was delightful.
It was amazing. Best bread and lasagna I’ve had in forever.
We requested an outdoor table but they gave us an indoor table. They also made us pay for the tiramisu when it was supposed to be free for the birthday occasion.
Really felt like the restaurant was taking the right precautions with everyone. The food was outstanding
Always delicious- I tried the Ravioli de Forno and it was fantastic! Can't go wrong with the meatballs as an appetizer as well!
Really nice restaurant overall. Great ambience with the lights and decore. Food came out a little too quick although we were there for early dinner at 5:30. Not the most authentic Italian food, but still good. Wine was great as well right during happy hour. We left happy, typical cost for a Chicago dinner.
The food was great and the drinks were really well mixed all at an affordable price.
Excellent food and ambiance, we had the grilled calamari, the spicy scampi and the Pasta Alfredo. All really good.
Every time I visit Chicago we must have dinner here! (Sometimes we end up here twice, especially after a long day of work at the Merchandise Mart!) One of our favorites.
Classic Italian American food perfectly executed with great service. Can’t go wrong
This restaurant is perfect for a date night or even dinner with a couple friends. We got the burrata, Rigatoni and Spicy shrimp pasta. the Rigatoni and burrata were my fav and the other one was still great. Overall great ambiance and a great experience.
Great service. Joaquin was fantastic.
Excellent food at a good price. Great service by Beestra!
We were told we had a high-top table reserved but instead got shoved into a dank corner in the back room
Fantastic!
Loved the food and atmosphere. A bit pricey but worth it.
Thank You il Porcellino for another incredible dining experience. With covid on the rise we were nervous about dining out but wanted to celebrate our 10 year wedding anniversary. They checked temperatures, enforced the mask policy and had seating spaced apart. We felt safe. The food was outstanding! We appreciate the celebratory things you did for us for our anniversary!
Proposal celebrating
Went with some friends and had a great time! Always great service & high quality food!
Staff and service was good but quality and taste of food was poor/fair. Not worth the $65 spent on food and drinks. Could have cooked a better homemade rigatoni alla vodka. Mela mule was weak. However, grilled calamari and stuffed mushrooms were good.
First time in Chicago- this place was awesome with amazing food! Server was great!
James portrayed amazing service. The food was amazing, I recommend the truffle fries.
Nice food with a good atmosphere, music selection was a little all over the place. Overall was a nice experience and the food was beautiful.
Food was awesome. Soooo good. Service was a bit slow. For them to tell you that your party has 90 minutes to eat, they pushed it, not my party
The food and service was outstanding, this is an excellent Italian restaurant
Service was a bit slow, and I was looking forward to more gluten free pasta options besides fettuccine. Overall, food was great and ambiance was on point.
Terrible service, waited forever for drinks, food came first.
Sooooo good. Staff very attentive. Wish I lived in Chicago, so I could come often.
From service, to drinks, to appetizers , to entrée and dessert...spectacular! Very covid compliant! This first time customer will be back!
Amazing food, good happy hour n lovely atmosphere!
It was amazing.
Delicious food, friendly waiters, amazing ambiance. We loved our time there and will surely be back for more!
