    Wow! Best lamp chops EVER! But the service was also outstanding! Anthony was our waiter and wish I knew all the other waitstaff because they were all “on top of things” from refilling water, bringing out warm bread the minute we were seated, Picking up dirty plates…such great service! Also Steve and I were in a bit of a hurry but That didn’t faze Anthony one bit! I Also noticed how your waitstaff treated Each other as well as the chef (came to visit the table seated next to us) So so friendly and seem to Work as a happy team! Like I said….best lamb chop I’ve Ever had!

    The rack of lamb was the best I have ever had! Bravo Executive Chef Benítez! I can say that having Christian take care of me at the bar was also the best choice to have made yesterday evening. I give Chicago Prime Italian 5 stars for great food, great drink, and exceptional, attentive, personalized, and professional service bar none! I am impressed!

    Overall, it was OK. There were just a few moments of frustrations. I had to ask several times for a menu. I wanted to pre-order appetizers for my party. I even went up to the hostess stand and still got no menus after that until finally, I asked another server, but I asked for menus about five or six times. Also, I’m the only non-alcoholic drinker so I asked for a lemonade 30 minutes later I had to give the server a reminder he apologized but still When my sweet potato fries came out, they weren’t even hot. They were lukewarm. I ended up just putting them in a box to take them home and I would just reheat them in the air fryer. It was also hard to have conversations the restaurant had someone playing piano and singing, but it was a bit loud Overall, the experience was OK

    Quick Valentines Day dinner before a meeting. Food as always was excellent, and the service was great. We always enjoy our time at Prime Italian, and can’t wait to return. Seafood carbonara was excellent, and Penne ala vodka with sausage crumbles is a go to.

    This was my 2nd visit and I wanted to try the pasta. The filet I had on my first visit was better so I was a little dissappointed...still good but I was left unsatisfied. We were also visiting on Valentine's Day for a work dinner - so it was BUSY and loud. We still received great service and all of the staff were personable and great!!

    Service and food was excellent. I’m thrilled to have more halal steak options in the burbs. Nice upscale restaurant without the snooty service is a win! Only negative was having to wait to be seated for 20 mins even though we had a reservation.

    The service was top notch. It was a birthday celebration and they pulled out all the stops. One small exception to the incredible experience. The music was odd and way too loud. We couldn’t have a conversation at our table it was so loud. But everything else made up for it and it’ll be a memory for years to come.

Fresh Italian food, prime steaks and friendly staff. Highly recommend Chicago Prime Italian. You won’t be disappointed.

    Made reservation and had to wait 30 mins still after we arrived to get a table. During that process the host was incredibly rude. The music was cranked up to levels similar to a club so it was difficult to converse. Food was good - but the rest - won’t go back.
