Best Italian Restaurants in South Elgin

The food is absolutely delicious. I had the steak which was done just perfectly and my wife had the linguine which she said was perfectly al dante. We also had the calamari,which was very good. Our server was outstanding, and the noise level was very low, so you could easily carry on a conversation. The only negative I would possibly have would be as we were leaving. I told the hostess that we had a great server and that it seemed to me like she was working the whole room. She snapped back that our server was just a drama queen. I think she thought the server was complaining to me, which was absolutely not the case, as she was incredibly professional. Rather, it was an observation on my part. Kind of left a final bad taste on an otherwise perfect evening. Maybe the hostess was just having a bad day. We will absolutely go back and enjoy another meal there. Maybe they'll be a more professional hostess next time.

Our meal was outstanding. We had the Parmesan crusted white fish with potatoes & roasted vegetables which I believe was the best meal ever. We ate dinner in the Speakeasy before the show and would go back again for dinnet even if we weren't attending a show.

I wish I was allowed to give La ZaZa Trattoria 10 stars because this place is fantastic! Everything cooked perfectly, great service and reasonable prices for what you get. The Wagyu Steak special was one of the best steaks I’ve ever eaten, (cooked perfectly to order) and I’ve dined at some of the finest steakhouses in the country. If I lived in the area, I’d be here every night!! Awesome restaurant!

Wonderful food and service! The music was loud, but bearable given the food was amazing.
