Best Italian Restaurants in Lake Villa

Warmly greeted upon our arrival and immediately shown to our table. Our sever, Kyle was super attentive and got our drink and app order in for us right away. We had a mozzarella appetizer special that was delish! We each had a different pasta dish and all did not disappoint! Very generous portions too!! We come to Bottaios regularly and have never had a bad meal! A true gem of Libertyville!

Had a very nice dining experience last evening. Food was excellent! Our server Ryan did a nice job and was very personable!

Sarma was exceptionally attentive and made my birthday perfect! She was great with my family and made us feel at home in a restaurant of luxury. We got the calamari and Polpette Della Nonna that was spectacular!! My favorite vegetable which is full of vitamins was the beet salad! Sarma recommended wonderful tasting food and she even said the Lobster/Shrimp Ravioli was delicious which then once I tasted it my mouth watered and was epic to taste with the sauce! My family loved the ambiance and not being rushed to eat. It felt like we were at home enjoying an Eastern European Meal with the family! Her name even means “Wrapped” in Croatian. Which is incredible since I just made those and Dolmas for a recipe for my book. She made my birthday special!!!! Thank you Sarma, we will come back after we bonded over Sparkles too hehe wonderful recipes and felt inspired to paint tonight! ❤️❤️❤️🥳🥳🥳🥳

It feels awkward to leave 2 positive reviews for the same restaurant, but here it is. We took out our best friends for a Christmas dinner and Coppolillo’s delivered! The reservations were perfect, the service was , again , most pleasant and attentative and the food was outstanding. Appetizers were crab salad and Italian sausage. So good that we could have skipped the entrees. But, we didn’t! We had the skirt steak, the lamb chops, the filets and the eggplant parmesan. Absolutely delicious. We aren’t mentioning the Canoli desserts, because nobody would believe we actually ate that much, but we did! Please give this place a try, you won’t regret it!! Thank you Coppolillo’s!!

This was my first time dining at Main Street Social and it was a great experience. The food was absolutely outstanding and the atmosphere gave a very fun, chilled but elegant vibe. I highly recommend the Burrata as an appetizer and the salmon as an entree. We will be back for sure.
