    Had reservations for dinner after a show at the Goodman. Staff were outstanding at greeting/seating a crowd emerging all at once from the theater. Waiter was prompt, friendly, professional, and helpful, and kept things moving without rushing us. We ordered drinks, starters, and entrees and were served unbelievably quickly and courteously. The food tasted good, not “foodie” level but certainly fine for a casual early dinner with friends and an overall very enjoyable experience. Would absolutely come again.

    We hadn’t been to Petterino’s in a long time. We were surprised that it was so empty pre- theatre. The food was good as was the service.

    I’ve eaten at Petterino’s several times, and each time it has always been excellent. Since they do get a lot of theater goers, the service is fast without feeling rushed. The staff are always friendly, the menu has a lot of choices along with several specials, and I find the portions are just the right size, and everything I have had has been delicious.
