- CCarrie1 review5.0Dined todayDelicious deep dish pizza that took about 35 minutes. Appetizers were tasty, one pasta dish that was super as well as a huge serving. Christmas decor made it so special along with low lighting and music.More infoPizano's Pizza & Pasta - MadisonPrice: Moderate• Italian• Downtown / Loop•4.6

- MMary JoChicago / Illinois •8 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoI would give this 5 stars except for the price - a bit steep for lunch -,but the food was amazing except for the risotto which was too sweet for a main course. I have just returned from Italy and I would say this food was very authentic. The calamari was exceptional and I’ve ordered it in a lot of places. I loved the ambiance and appreciated the quietness of the restaurant especially given that so many places thrive on a high noise level. We also enjoyed the music selection.More infoAcantoPrice: Expensive• Italian• Downtown / Loop•4.8
- CCaseyIndiana •2 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoFood was fantastic! We had chicken breast and the beef agnolotti, both were great. Focaccia was delicious. I had the 203tini (espresso martini) and it was so espresso and chocolate heavy- in a good way. Our server was pleasant. The restaurant was very quiet and intimate. We were happy we chose it.More infoMiss Ricky's TrattoriaPrice: Moderate• Italian• Downtown / Loop•4.6
- MMeleesaChicago / Illinois •1 review5.0Dined on Dec 16, 2024The pizza was the best ever! The crust was light and fluffy on the inside and beautifully crisp on the outside. The drizzle of hot honey on the pepperoni option was fabulous. Everyone was soooo friendly and welcoming. I can't wait to visit again!More infoMillennium Hall RestaurantPrice: Moderate• American• River North (Chicago)•3.7
