The food and drinks were delicious. The staff were very attentive and helpful. The atmosphere was casual and fun. The only negative was the price for a side of rice. That seemed high for a small bowl that typically comes with the meal. But overall it was a great dining experience.

Food was good, service was ok. I shared that it was a b’day celebration on the reservation and was surprised when nothing came of it not even a happy birthday! So not sure why it was a part of the reservation process.

Dropped in to our favorite spot while in Chicago. We are always greeted like family and the atmosphere is relaxed and friendly. The pasta is fresh and full of flavor. I had my favorite Linguini Vonogole which is always wonderful blend of light, balanced flavors, garlic, clams and EVOO! Always leave OGGI feeling the glow from great food and wonderful community!
