Get the sea bass if they have it. The gnocchi is amazing as is the vodka sauce. Trust the waiters. They will take care of you.
Building may look run down but the food is awesome. There's always a long wait so make sure you have reservations. Best Gnocchi in town (pair it with their Arrabbiata sauce)
Must order the gnocchi alla vodka & any of the risotto's! This place is a must, when in Chicago
Squid ink linguini, short rib ravioli, gnocchi and baked lasagna --> sooo good!!
Gnocchi was delicious! Brick chicken wasn't great. Portions aren't big enough to share. Excellent service. Outside and bar seating doesn't require reservation per out server. Would go back.
Gnocchi, Osso, and Bomboloni are excellent!
Absolutely have the wagyu tomahawk if they have it. Talk about mouthwatering goodness! Gnocchi is supreme as well.
When I return, I will sit at the bar and eat the gnocchi - order a bottle of Italian wine and sit in bliss. Everything is good, the gnocchi was shockingly good for a steakhouse.
Bone-in filet, black truffle log crab gnocchi, lobster mashed potatoes... Oh and rose Chandon as the house sparkling wine. Not bad at all!
gnocchi <3
Portions are the perfect size. Gnocchi and steak are both superb. The beignets for desert are pillow like fluffy paradise in your mouth.
Excellent small bites - recommend the provolone stuffed peppers. Additionally, the sweet potato gnocchi is excellent.
Get the gnocchi ask for the server Angela
Gnocchi is amazing
Get the dish where you top the bread and the ricotta gnocchi
I was lifted from my chair after eating the lamb gnocchi in a red pepper tomato and mint sauce topped off with Greek yogurt.
Seems that brunch is the thing here vs. dinner. Gnocchi was excellent as were the scallops. Nigerian shrimp were large but didn't taste like anything special.
Octopus app is FAB, gnocchi is amazing and Branzino fish perfection!
Especially delicious grilled octopus starter recommended by the staff
Get the mozzarella bar
Cucumber Loco similar to a margarita. Very tasty. The Barry White has the flavor profile of a Paloma. Green Tomato Rings take on fried green tomatoes very good. Ricotta gnocchi this is delicious.
Great brunch options. Loved that the entree came with a drink
Best brunch cocktails, good skillets - too heavy for my taste though 😛
The gnocci is to die for!
Stellar pastas and veal! Great with accommodating serious food allergies and restrictions, too.
The mayor recently dined with CNN’s Wolf Blitzer, straight from his Situation Room. “Generally we know where he likes to sit,” owner Jack Weiss says. “It’s a special table near a window.” Read more.
Everything. Try the whipped feta, the grilled broccoli , and the ricotta gnocchi.
Excellent meal, make sure to get the fried pig ears and the butternut squash créeme brûlée for dessert. Many great options with an equally extensive wine list
The Spanish octopus is to die for. The pork slade is also great. Good drinks. Very crowded, they don’t take reservations, it took us 1:20 to get a table for 2 on a friday night. Worth it though.
Tapas, gnocchi
Great place for groups. Everything is good. Big fan of the sharing concept. Veal meatballs (feel guilty about this😢), pastas (pappardelle, gnocchi, linguine with clam sauce), gelatos... all so tasty!
Food is AMAZING!!! Gnocci and pizza is a must!!!
A wonderful hole in the wall (compared to neighbor trump tower). This is a delicious no-fuss place that focuses on great food made from scratch. And too it off with some gelato!
What an awesome! Spot for a delightful pizza spot in the heart of Chicago :) I reccommend this place to anyone visiting Illinois.I will Return! Back to Chicago and this place will be my first stop.
The fish n' chips, and the gnocchi were amazing!
They know the good toiletry brands :-)
Meatballs, falafel, lamb, cocktails and the gnocchi
The fries are amazingly salty and delicious. French dip is great as well.
The beef tartar, lamb and roasted chicken were great. As was the potatoes bravas and corn. The pork confit was meh in comparison. We ordered all of the desserts for our party and loved the avocado ice
Il Porcellino in River North is justifiably popular for its pastas, especially the feather-light dumplings that go into the menu's gnocchi Bolognese. Read more.
I got the gnocchi here- it was really good! Pretty expensive place though, and they hide any deals they have (we found them though 😊). Great wine- go to their happy hour!
Great little find… nice food with friendly staff. Order the garlic bread.
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
