Even if you can't sit on the city's best patio all year, chef Tony Priolo's pizzas, housemade pastas and grilled meats make a trip worth it even in the dead of winter. Read more.
Everything was amazing! Lobster caprese, carbonara, Juliana's Italian salad, prawns, truffle garlic bread, mama's pasta, and the fig, marscapone and almond dessert! Ask for Justin as your waiter!
Pappardelle arrabbiata is fresh and tasty with a generous portion. Great bartender, friendly patrons, a couple of curated local taps and other nice drink choices. Great neighborhood find.
I loved the Buffalo Mac & Cheese. It's a one-dish with pasta on the bottom and crispy bits of chicken and breading on top
The service was excellent. I had the best fettuccine di mare with Parma martini, grilled octopus, and caprise salad. The portions just right and the items shareable. I'd recommend this place forever.
Potato gnocchi with beef heart Bolognese: know that the heart, makes for a wonderfully robust, tangy, meat sauce that, spread across a gentle bed of gnocchi, adds up to a soul-warming winter dish. Read more.
I loved the Ravioli Milanese, the sauce was absolutely fantastic. The filling was so flavorful and it was the perfect portion size! A great Italian spot in Andersonville
If the Obamas are in Chicago there’s a chance they'll be dining at Chicago’s only 4-star Italian restaurant. Chef Tony Mantuano has been serving handmade pastas here for nearly 30 years. Read more.
It's all good. Seriously can't go wrong here. Highlights for me are the coccoli the meatballs and the truffle gnocchi. There is a great back room for business lunches/presentations as well.
It's fun to sit at the dining counter and be able to watch the chefs work. It will also give you the chance to pick out what you think looks best. Lobster Spaghetti is fantastic, as are the crudos.
Ravioli is hand made and delicious. Pork chop is really good as well. Texas mule is a delicious cocktail. Save room for dessert, the tiramisu is probably one of the best I've ever had. Sharable.
Pasta Armani... whether it's on the menu or not, they will make it for you and you will love it.
Arrabiata pasta & truffle pasta are the best! So delicious & tasty. The service is good here too but come early to avoid waiting.
To start: the bruschetta (the best I've ever had). For the main, the pasta is molto bene. Portions are huge, so feel to share. Best part: BYOB, no corking fee.
Hand crafted pastas! Arrabbiata and Tortelli Verde are both full of flavor and delicious! You feel hip just being there!
There'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.
