Cole Kennedy: Aw yeah. The tagliatelle puts happiness in your belly. The fresh pastas are all good, as is the diverse red wine list, but the pizzas aren't special.
Keith Peltason: House red and white are both tasty and a steal at $6 / Quartino (8oz)
Stephen: House red is so great. Some of my faves: white bean spread, asparagus risotto, orrechiette, pappardelle, romaine hearts. Great service, very reasonable prices.

Janet: Kevlyn was our server and accommodated my dislike of red wine with the wine pairings. She was a wonderful server and tolerated us (me) inebriated.
JenKudu: It seems the food is overlooked by the whiskey menu. Had the 2 course tasting menu and it's great. Devils on horseback and oysters Rockefeller are decadent. This menu def holds its own. Well done!
Eater: This 1920s-era speakeasy offers a swank lounge, private cabanas, live entertainment space and an enormous whiskey library with over 300 choices.
Stephen Lawrence: Get the fried calamari, frutti de mare and of course the tiramisu!!!!
Time Out Chicago: The toughest part of Mom's brunch here will be choosing between the smoked salmon omelette, the eggs Benedict and the fried eggs with spicy pesto.
troy vo: Great food but don't be on a timeline. Took over 2 hours for two of us to eat on a wednesday and we ended up skipping dessert cause we ran out of time.
