A Classic French Bistro in the heart of Edison Park has been a dream of Executive Chef and owner Joe Calabrese for several years. Joe was professionally trained at the prestigious Culinary Institute of America located in Hyde Park, New York. Before opening his other restaurant, Zia’s Trattoria (located one block west of Café Touché at 6699 N. Northwest Highway) in 1997, he was sharpening his professional – and knife – skills at several well-respected Chicago dining establishments including Ambria, Spiagia, Un Grand Cafe and the Park Hyatt. Joe lives in Park Ridge, a few short miles from the restaurants, so expet to see him in both restaurants assuring a quality experience for his customers. On days off, Joe can be found at home with his wife, Mary Kay and their 3 boys. Reservations by phone: 773-775-0909. The only reservation restrictions are on Friday and Saturday, parties of five or more only. Café Touché is located at 6731 N. Northwest Highway, Chicago (Edison Park), I

Mirabella is an Italian steakhouse in the same location where Mirabell Restaurant once stood in the heart of Irving Park. Mirabell, a local staple for nearly 40 years, could not be easily ignored or forgotten; so when the new Owner, Chef Arturo, left his career of 20 years as Head Chef at one of the best steakhouses in downtown Chicago, he felt it was important to recognize Mirabell's unique and longstanding contributions to the community. Mirabella is proud to honor the history and integrity of the former restaurant, while serving the cuisine that Chef Arturo is so passionate about. We welcome you to join us in the celebration of life, love, happiness and delicious food from our famous Grilled Calamari, Chicken Mirabella to our most popular dessert Banana Foster. Mangia!

Speak easy vibes set the feel of this old school Chicago tavern. Mix in live music Thursday through Saturday and your environment is cool and complete for a great dining experience. Think Supper Club. Dinner at the bar is also an option with the full menu available. Ribs, Steaks and Seafood front the fare along with fantastic sides and soups. Don't sleep on the Burgers... served with fresh cut fries. The Baby Back Ribs take top billing and you can pair them with your choice of seafood including fried shrimp, steamed crablegs or half a chicken. Quality and consistency in both food and service are worthy of your dining dollar. A recent make over of our side room has inspired Club 45. A perfect private room with a mix of seating arangements for lunch, brunch or dinner affairs. Let us host your next gathering of 20 to 50 guests. Free parking is available right next to the restaurant in the Huntington Bank lot. We thank you in advance for joining us,

Piacere Mio never disappoints! Every time I dine here, I’m reminded why it’s one of my favorite spots. The pasta Bolognese was absolutely incredible—just as good as (if not better than) what I’ve had in Italy! The flavors were rich, the pasta perfectly cooked, and every bite was pure comfort. Beyond the food, the service is what truly sets this place apart. The staff is always warm, welcoming, and attentive, making every visit feel special. Whether it’s your first time or you’re a regular, they treat you like family. I love this place and can’t wait for my next visit! If you’re looking for authentic Italian cuisine with amazing service, this is the place to be.
