About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Neighborhood gem
  • Charming
Good Food, Good Wine, Good Shoes, Makes Life Better.

Born in Naples, Italy and raised in Milan, Bruno Abate was inspired at an early age by his parents for his passion for food and fashion. Bruno opened his first company in Milan, selling fish and caviar to high-end restaurants. His extensive travels around the world helped him appreciate fine food and design and eventually led him to Chicago in 1999, where he combined his passions. In Chicago, Bruno brought together his vision to marry authentic Italian cuisine with a modern design when he opened his first restaurant Follia, in the meatpacking district and currently, Tocco in Winnetka.

The concept was simple, make authentic Italian Cuisine with the finest ingredients and give diners an experience like they were in Italy.

    I usually don’t bother with reviews but this was such a delicious pleasant fresh meal served by gracious unobtrusive servers that I had to share !!!!! Truly one of the best meals I have ever had. The floral arrangements and space design were over the top gorgeous and original. Thank you, Tocco!!!!! I’ll be back as soon as possible.

    Really good food and drinks in a pretty setting. We had a vesper as our cocktail - which is a generous pour - followed by the beet salad, pappardelle bisanzio and the branzino with the tiramisu for dessert. All were prepared perfectly. The waiter was attentive and knowledgeable.

    Food very average, and not as good as past visits. Service was marginal with no olive oil or butter served with the not great bread. Overall, disappointing.

    Server pushing to turn table. Had to ask for bread, had to ask for olive oil, then $3 charge for oil, plus service charge. $165 for pasta and 2 glasses of wine? Surprised no fee for silverware. Won’t be back.
    ToccoResponded on June 13, 2025
    Hello, We appreciate your review. The service fee added covers the cost of the credit card processing fee which many restaurants in the area charge. The receipt states that we would be glad to remove the fee for you if asked. We use the freshest ingredients and import everything from Italy except our vegetables and meat, which we get in fresh daily. Our olive oil comes directly from Calabria, Toscana, Puglia and costs $24 per ltr plus transportation, storage and tariff. Our goal is to make our customers feel light and not having any problems with digestion; having to depend on TUMS to control the acidity. We appreciate your visit and I will be more than happy next time to offer you a free bottle of our olive oil. - Looking forward to seeing you in the future, Chef Bruno Abate
