About this restaurant

Romantic
Neighborhood gem
Good for special occasions

Taste the difference at Mia Passione. Blending Old World flavors with American hearty fare, this culinary gem, mere minutes from Chicago's O'Hare Airport, features fresh pasta, steaks, seafood and classic Italian specialties. Mia Passione puts a little piece of heart in every creation, from the made-fresh-that-morning pasta to the savory, saucy pizzas, prepared fresh inside the restaurant's 6,000-pound wood-burning oven. Relax with a classic, craft cocktail inside a colorful, cozy dining area, complete with Frank Sinatra on the stereo. Food is fresh and hearty, made to the owner's exacting standards -- if it's not good enough for them, it's not good enough for anyone. Mia Passione is open for dinner only, Tuesday through Sunday.

The eggplant stack was excellent, as were the baked clams. The meatball with fresh ricotta was also excellent. Haven't had anything bad there. Good wines by the glass.
