    First time for our family to dine in. Our table was just perfect for us to eat and enjoy a good conversation over food. Everything we ordered were delicious. Ambience was warm, cozy, and inviting. Even the noise level was perfect enough to cancel out other people’s conversations. We will definitely be back to dine again soon.

    Lovely experience today. We wanted a non-traditional Thanksgiving and this was perfect. The lamb meatballs come with 4, perfect to share and were excellent. I got the SPAGHETTI, AGLIO, OLIO E PEPERONCINO, which is spaghetti with olive oil, garlic, pistachio and chili flake and it was fantastic. Not too heavy at all, not too spicy but spice was present. Crunch of the pistachios offered a different texture. For my next dish I went with the TAGLIATA DI MANZO, sliced beef ribeye, salsa verde, arugula, cherry tomatoes, Parmigiano potatoes. Steak cooked medium as requested, seasoned well and the potatoes were really good. Lastly I received a birthday tiramisu that was a nice surprise. It came in a glass jar. I am not a big dessert guy but I would absolutely get this again on my next visit. My only small gripe would be there’s one men’s toilet for the whole restaurant. Women’s appeared to have more, not much can be done with how the building is I suppose. I will definitely be back.

    My husband and I have moved to the Asheville, NC area and only come back to the Chicago area once a year to see family. We have been missing Quartino, especially because they can accommodate my lactose intolerance. This year, we decided that we had to go to downtown Chicago just so we could go the Quartino and Eataly. It was even worth the horrible traffic getting downtown!
