Our party of 4 arrived on a lively Friday night and were seated well within the 10 minute wait time we were told. I've been here before and they never fail to serve a good meal with plenty of food and a fantastic staff. Spinato's really does strike that optimal balance between making you feel like family while still being a business.
Last night I had pasta with meatballs, as always, a good, tasty, meatball spiced juuust right with the spaghetti cooked properly (neither over or under cooked). So much I took home half.
I'm an especially fond of their Chicago- style thin crust pizza (love "da Greek"). I recommend it. Their Italian beef is the real deal, too.
My only single note of caution is their red sauce (aka "gravy" where I come from), you had better like it Chicago-style, which is slightly sweeter than other regional styles (NY or NJ, for example).
I've never been disappointed at Spinato's. Kudos to the family for keeping it both high quality & real.
