Best Restaurants for Birthdays in Portage Park

The food was wonderful and the service was perfect. Unfortunately, and it was not the restaurants fault, there was a table behind us with two children running all over and very loud. But because everything was so nice we tried to ignore it. I know the waiter tried everything he could to diffuse it.

Dining experience at The Little Gem was excellent. Service was smooth and appetizers and entrees were spaced nicely. We were a party of six and everything was seamless. Good menu choices and excellent preparation.

My girlfriend and I had a wonderful time here. Charming host who told us all about the Piemont region. The food was excellent and on Thursdays they have half off on a lovely selection of Piemontese wines. Will be coming back!

The restaurant is super cute. The music volume was a bit loud for a Wednesday due to the crowd, but i get if it was a Saturday with a busy crowd. Overall the food was great! The empanadas were fried to perfection almost pastry like. Will definitely go back in the summer

Lovely. We enjoyed the pizza with an unpronounceable name, the Bolognese, and a side of fire roasted veg. Each was excellent. The service was fast and pleasant. We sat in the front of the restaurant nearest the street and that was certainly quieter than the main dining room. We'll be back.
