ben mMarch 31, 2015Ok, so it wasn't my best judgement to bring a kid (she loved the pesto though) but the staff was super nice about it. Great food and solid beer list. We will be back, well for date night next time.
ChicagoistJuly 20, 2015Waffles vs. pancakes is one of brunch's eternal battles, and here they are locked in delicious détente. You should probably bring at least one person with you so you can share rather than choose. Read more
Redeye ChicagoDecember 4, 2014This West Town restaurant and bar opened in mid-October with Three Aces chef Matt Troost at the helm. Try out their local brews, hand-crafted cocktails and long American and Italian wine list. Read more
AbiNovember 2, 2014The "Because Winter" cocktail is a nice mix of rum and grapefruit. I had their steak and was very surprised at the presentation and the quality. Great restaurant. Hope they stick around.
- L KDecember 8, 2014Great place for foodies. The black pepper rigatoni, sweet potato angolotti w/ venison, the polenta...all incredible. Not what I expected, but I'll go back in a heartbeat. Great for special occasions.
- ChicagoistJanuary 21, 2015This fancy spot has a gorgeous Victorian-style interior and a menu featuring beautifully crafted pasta and tons of meat. Try the rabbit casconcelli covered in luscious brown butter and plump raisins. Read more
- Redeye ChicagoJanuary 22, 2015There's no question that Charlatan is a neighborhood gem serving incredible pastas. Expect moist meatballs the size of tennis balls, swaddled in a nest of al dente spaghettini. Read more
StephenApril 10, 2017Super cozy and cute. Attentive, friendly and knowledgeable servers. Great food - could not stop talking about the mashed carrots in the grilled octopus starter. Incredible.- Redeye ChicagoMarch 12, 2015At this West Town restaurant, you can satisfy your sweet tooth with lemon-ricotta pancakes served with bourbon maple syrup, lemon zest and milk jam that resembles dulce de leche.

Emily JurlinaNovember 20, 2014The beet bruschetta was excellent. Pastas come in half sizes so order lots to share. Their meatballs were great and the sweet potato venison pasta was rich and delicious.
Chicago TribuneJuly 17, 2015One not to miss is the grilled octopus: good-size pieces over romesco sauce and beef-braised carrots, topped with a crunchy-sprinkle of marrow-fried ciabatta bits. Read more
- ChicagoistFebruary 19, 2015The rotating option on Tuesday is the burger, made with tender beef, blue cheese, creamy garlic rosemary aioli and crispy fried mortadella on a house-made bun. Read more
Spencer SOctober 31, 2014Their Meatballs & Spaghetti were recommended by Zagat as a top Chicago Comfort Foods dish
ISC ChicagoMarch 24, 2016The pig's head is ridiculously good and very popular; everything else was equally amazing; very loud, though- Chicago TribuneJanuary 15, 2015When bread reminds you of cracklins, applause is an appropriate reaction. Charlatan, manages to bake focaccia as light and crunchy as fried chicken skin. Read more
It's A Major PlusJune 18, 2017Everything is made in house and farm to table. The burrata is excellent.
Every pasta dish I tried was delicious, but pass on the focaccia which was too crunchy and came in a stingy portion.
Great for brunch or a date night. Get the pepper pasta
Just get everything. The house-made pasta is ridiculous. Fernet Branca-menta on draft!
