Since 1992, Coco Pazzo has been an award-winning, Tuscan-inspired Chicago favorite. Menu items include the Porterhouse Bistecca alla Fiorentina and whole Mediterranean Sea Bass filleted tableside. Additionally, find housemade pasta, hand-tossed pizza and daily risotto and seafood specials. Enjoy the wood-burning oven while you sit and eat at the bar. As close to Italy as you can get, you'll enjoy dining in this 1905 former warehouse loft space.

Soaring ceilings with theatrical lighting, blue velvet drapes surround the dining room. Sit near an open window and enjoy passersby in this vibrant River North neighborhood. Steps from the Merchandise Mart and a short walk over the river from the Loop. Feel the welcoming and warm hospitality of this Gambero Rosso Top Italian Restaurant & Best Italian Wine List recipient and Wine Spectator award winner. Outdoor patio open weather permitting. Whether you join us for a romantic date night or corporate event, we look forward to hosting you soon!

    Been my favorite restaurant for 15 years and remains. Excellent food and service and tables are spread apart enough you are not hearing the next tables conversation.

    We love Coco Pazzo. Everything about it creates an elevated but relaxed dining experience. The food, the service, the ambiance and noise level that doesn’t interfere with conversation all contribute to a wonderful dining experience.

    I had not been to Coco Pazzo in years- it just has been on my “radar” - there are SO many good restaurants. My friend suggested it and as soon as I walked in the good memories came back. It has a warm, subtle elegance in its decor… the food was also was good as I remembered and the service was first-class. Our server happened to be fluent in French and Italian as well as English. We stayed for 3 hours and no one suggested we should hurry up or leave. I’ll be back soon.

    One of the top Italian restaurants in Chicago downtown for a long time. Great menus and drinks. It was very unfortunate that service of the waiters and staffs were below our expectations. Silver ware was not clean and requested to replace. Hot water we ordered was colored by the previous coffee stain. Waiters are not communicated well. Did not feel they are team players. Bad attitudes were recognized. We would like to go back there due to the food quality, but need to address their service before making a reservation.

    Great food, a beautiful restaurant. The octopus appetizer was superb…the risotto very good and all of the pasta dishes were exceptional, the cocktails, however, were all subpar. Their wine list was excellent—I would suggest to you to skip the awful cocktails here and just go straight to the wine!
