Best Italian Restaurants in Oak Park

Lovely experience from the service to the flavors to the presentation, it was just a lovely evening. Thank you all -Melanie, Antonio and everyone else. I left the restaurant exactly as I would want - sated from the food and feeling appreciated by the staff. I left you a smile!

Food was excellent. Service from Carlos was excellent & didn't feel rushed. The volume was low so you could hear your conversations. They sat us at a table near the window with view of the patio which was nice. I'd say the only criticism where drinks are a little pricey and valet $ for being so close to the door.

All of the pasta dishes were cooked perfectly and enjoyed to al dente perfection. We ordered 5 dishes -- Gnocchi di Patate (good, but was expecting really over the top and it wasn't); the bucatini, spaghetti de mare, lumache, and the casarecce, were all exceptional. The salad and frito misto were fantastic. The burrata was disappointing, in that it was a ball of burrata and there was nothing served with it (e.g., bread or cracker of something) to eat it. The vanilla semifreddo was the best dessert and the chocolate mousse was good. The budino was odd. The pinot grigio (Klaus Lensch) was great. The rose was so-so. Overall, a good night and an exceptional meal and experience.

We had a party of 8, and everyone enjoyed the night. It has become one of our favorites even though we live about 40 minutes away. Everything is good here food, service, quantity, value, and atmosphere. We will try to get back whenever we can.

I came here with two of my girlfriends and Mitchell was our server. He was outstanding, hilarious, kind, and was always there and ready. Truly the epitome of perfect service!!!He had wonderful service. 10/10. Food was outstanding too. The greca, ribeye, bronzino, cacio e Pepe, and the banana dessert. Loved it.
