About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Neighborhood gem
Our name, which means “little dream” in Italian, was chosen by partners Tony Priolo and Ciro Longobardo because it had always been their dream to open a restaurant of their own. “The restaurant fits our personal goal to get to the heart of Italian wine and food,” says executive chef Priolo. “You go to Italy for simple food prepared by hand with local ingredients. We wanted to bring that experience to Chicago.”

Piccolo Sogno features a menu of seasonally fresh rustic Italian cuisine. The impressive all-Italian wine list boasts over 400 selections to pair with your meal.

When the weather allows, enjoy al fresco dining in the hidden garden patio-regularly recognized as one of the best in the city.

Starting December 1, Monday-Thursday we'll open at 5 pm rather than 4 pm-just for the winter.

You are welcome to bring a cake to celebrate. If you do, we will charge a $3 fee per person cake-cutting fee.

Beginning January 1, all credit card transactions will be charged a 3% fee.

    We came here for our wedding anniversary and left disappointed. The food, including the day’s special, was bland and tasteless—not at all worth the high prices. A very unfortunate choice for a special occasion. Would not return.

    We sat out in a tent that was heated, but could smell fumes. The inside looked much nicer, but that isn’t where we were seated. I assume the menu and costs are the same, but didn’t check. Overall the food was ok. The black spaghetti with seafood had a spoiled clam. The Pasta with brisket was good, but could have added more food. The service was decent. Everything was served fine, but not attentive enough.

    The food was good. Beat outdoor patio in the city. We didn’t like the added in service charge.

    The food was good, but it was just luke warm. The salads were very small for the price. It was also extremely loud on the tent-enclosed patiom
