    We were seated at an row of tabkes in the corner in back of the restaurant. We felt squished. We asked to move the only table available was a high top by the opening door of the restaurant. It was very cold wind coming in from outside. The food was okay had a hamburger. The location is excellent and was disappointed of where we sat. I would go back to Peterrino's with more people.

    We try and get reservations here every time we come into Chicago for a show or performance. As always, everything was excellent. I do wish they would serve a really good Italian bread or selection of breads with olive oil and Parmesan cheese instead of plain focaccia and cheese butter. I feel it would add to the Italian experience and a lot of people are trying to cut out butter.

    We have dined many times at Petterino’s in the past, especially because it’s so nice to have a meal there before attending a nearby theatre and Petterino’s offered free valet parking for the meal and the duration of the show too . We were very disappointed that now they charge valet parking ( it was $18 for lunch parking) and that they not longer are part of Lettuce Entertainment You so we couldn’t use our LEYE gift cards. We didn’t know of either change until we arrived. And this restaurant that was always so crowded in the past, was almost empty. Very disappointed

    Had a great time at petterinos, we came in after the rush, and had excellent food and even better service from our server Melissa! Can't wait to be back! The short-rib Mafalde and Chicken Limone were amazing.
