This place is one of the best Italian restaurants I've dined at. It's all about the food! The first time I went there I ordered fried zucchini for an appetizer. The breading they use is so delicious! Not breaded too much and the zucchini is cut thick and has amazing fresh flavor. I also ordered the "Chicago" pizza. Thin crust loaded with the works. Delicious! My friend ordered fried cheese ravioli and the kids had spaghetti! I sampled both! The marinara sauce that came with the fried ravioli was very flavorful and the spaghetti sauce was divine! After that night I craved it two days later! I had my boyfriend meet me there for dinner! We ordered fried zucchini, of course, chicken parmesan, and a sausage pepperoni calzone! OMG to die for! The chicken was cooked perfectly, breaded with delicious breading, amazing sauce and came with a side of spaghetti and garlic bread! The calzone tasted so fresh and cheesy and the side of marinara topped it off perfectly! My boyfriend lived in Chicago for 4 years and said the food tasted really good and was just like Chicago! We left full and with left overs! I never eat the left overs but I definitely did this time! The ambiance of the restaurant is ok. Plenty of seating and a bar. Small flat screen TVs through out. I don't mind the ambiance though. I'm there to eat, not be entertained or distracted by decor and sports. This place also has take out! I will be back very soon!
