Suzanne BeckmanJuly 25, 2013The Arugula salad with shrimp and grape tomatoes was flavorful and lite. The Grouper with tomato sauce and polenta was excellent as well. Flavor and presentation were both well executed!

Ellen FitzpatrickApril 9, 2014We had the tasting menu - a lot of food, but the risottos and pastas were amazing. Great service, lovely atmosphere, not rushed at all.
Janet TabinJuly 9, 2017First time here. Everything we tried was amazing. The grilled octopus was the best we've ever had.- ISC ChicagoAugust 20, 2018Love the decor, and they have small stools at each table for purses. Brilliant!
Kathryn JanicekAugust 15, 2010Service: excellent. Food: entire party more than pleased (I suggest the grilled seafood plate w/seasonal veggies, best seafood I've had in the city in months). Valet: SLOW - skip it and walk- Chicago magazineMay 8, 2012Veal-filled ravioli in a pistachio cream sauce and braised-beef risotto in a red wine sauce with gremolata travel in a higher plane.

- Wen YaoJanuary 12, 2013Don't attempt to try the chef's tasting menu unless u r reallyyyyy hungry. Loll. But overall the food is satisfying , def should give the pasta a try.
Brett SharpSeptember 15, 2010The grilled seafood plate is fantastic, fresh and very authentic. Five different types plus potatoes and vegetables. Delicious for the adventurous!
Peter SJune 3, 2013Mick Jagger walked in when I was there, so they must be doing something very right. Or very wrong, depending on your point of view.
David M.March 19, 2012Amazing, try the pasta sampler as an appetizer that won't fill you up before the main course.
Showtime NetworkApril 1, 2011Several of Pope Alexander VI’s cardinals had wives and children. A hidden restaurant like this would have been perfect for their servants’ nights off.
Crain's Chicago BusinessJuly 22, 2010Two courses are $22 and three courses $28, but expect little extras, like an amuse-bouche of breaded mozzarella-anchovy on carrot purée. Read more
