Siena Tavern

Very underrated and the food was excellent. Highly recommend.

Great restaurant in River north! Beautiful dark walls, booths and fun vibe! Chef was very visible and mingled with the guests! Service was very attentive and described menu selections well.

The bar seating area was WAY too crowded for these COVID times.

Really busy at 2p today, very few open tables... Almost to busy in these times. Ordered the truffle omelette and added the pancetta bacon and then the king crab hash. The hash looked more like an app sized dish but delicious. Food was great overall and service excellent.

the food was absolutely amazing. We were a group of four and we all ordered different kinds of pasta and they were all phenomenal in their own right. I think we all were still dreaming about the dessert the next day. HANDS DOWN BEST ITALIAN IN THE STATES!

They did a great job of socially distancing the restaurant. Christian was a phenomenal server and I would recommend him to anyone! Food was amazing as always, get the gnocchi, you won’t be disappointed.

I love it there! The spaghetti is magnificent

At first I questioned the price, but everything I had was completely worth it. Our server patiently and kindly answered my abundance of questions and requests for suggestions. They know food. I’m convinced.

Quick bite, quick drink. Always a great place to go

My absolute favorite Italian in the city. Add to it the lovely staff and patio heaters and I would dine here everyday!! Also great for special occasions. Indoors is kind of loud so stay outside!

Service was great and the food was even better!

The food was good, -octopus- but the service was mediocre from start to finish. He even gave us the wrong check and we waited another 10 minutes to get the correct one!

In this day of COVID, this felt like a real restaurant experience, despite ample spacing and plenty of plexiglass. Food is excellent, and it was a fun night out.

The food is always stellar here. Nothing disappoints.

Meh.. picked this place because their menu was somewhat unusual and interesting. Had truffle garlic pizza and squid ink pasta, pasta was very overcooked and was very blend. It was really bad.. Mushroom pizza was ok but nothing special. Place looked nice but if you can’t make flavorful dishes, why bother.

The food was delicious, service was outstanding and they had a very nice and comprehensive wine list.

Great place given the food is always good and the service is always warm.

Love this place! Food and service was amazing! Had an amazing birthday dinner!

went for a casual lunch with a friend- did not disappoint

Juan was amazing! The food was perfect and everyone should try the weekday wine brunch! Would go everyday if I didn’t have to work! So great!

Food and drinks were great! Service was great .

Everything was great except that we had to wait almost an hour even with a reservation. People sitting outside would not leave and we had to wait for a long time to be seated.

The steak and eggs was extremely bland, the restaurant was nice, but the food, was not that good at all.

Never disappointed with Siena Tavern. Food and service is always phenomenal! The scallops are amazing!

We just had a wonderful dinner here this evening. My squid linguine was amazing!!!! Our friends short ribs were so tender, they were able to cut them with a fork. Although my husband's crab spaghetti was also good, he was quite disappointed when he saw & tasted their short ribs! Our socialite & hot toddy drinks was the icing on the cake! I can't forget about my kale Caesar salad that I said I'll come back for anytime!!!

I also left this review on YELP.

We sat outdoors and really enjoyed our cocktails (the black Manhattan was fantastic!) and dinner (gnocchi is highly recommended). Amy was our server and she was wonderful!

Always an excellent dining experience. Great service and the food was delicious. We really enjoyed the burrata and carbonara in a jar. Our favorites were the sausage and brussels sprouts pizza and the brick chicken.

I can’t wait to go back

The outdoor patio is perfect for covid-dining! Food was delicious and service was excellent. This is (still) one of my favorite restaurants in the city!

We took advantage of the Wine Lunch and boy was it worth it. So much fun and delicious food.

Great food and great vibes all around.

Amazing! The food was spectacular! I can’t wait to visit again. The gnocchi was outstanding!

The food here is always great, but we sat outside and I asked our server to turn up the heaters 3x and he said he would. He didn't. I froze my *** off. It will not keep you from going here.

This review is based on food and experience decor and ambience are 4 stars after being seated our total wait time to be greeted by a server which I had to ask a manager for was a total of 19 minutes , waiter was mediocre The restaurant didn’t seem that Busy for the service to be that slow, the food did come out fast , Drinks were ok I had to hunt down server to take my order and get my check the food was ok I would not return ,,,,, we ended up going across the street to Harry Carey’s where we received better service and turned our night around.

Had the best time! Our server was so attentive and she had great suggestions. We had the carbonara and lasagna to share and they were so good!! We also had the lemon meringue and tiramisu for dessert and it was an absolute treat! 10/10 recommend and will definitely be back!!

The whole staff was incredibly polite and helpful. We ordered the “forget about it” tasting menu and the food was outstanding from start to finish.
