Bar Siena expands to Chicago's North Shore suburbs with their most recent location at Old Orchard Mall. Located next to Nordstrom, the new restaurant boasts an 8,500-square-foot interior along with two expansive patios. Much like its West Loop sister spot, Bar Siena North Shore combines the quaint charm of trattorias in Siena, Italy, with the industrial aesthetic of Chicagoland. The restaurant, in collaboration with Top Chef Fabio Viviani, brings the flavor, flare, and energy of casual Italian-American dining to the Midwest. Whether you're joining us for brunch, lunch, pizza, or pasta, Bar Siena North Shore is perfect for birthdays, groups, romantic dinners, or a casual date. Enjoy cocktails, happy hour, dessert, and Italian food in a vibrant atmosphere, whether you're celebrating with friends at the bar or indulging in a cozy dining experience.

Arguably the worst dining experience we have had at a restaurant booked through open table. Astoundingly poor service, dirty utensils and mediocre food.

Very good food and excellent service. We tried the restaurant because of the Chicago Restaurant Week menu, which was a great value - good choices and good portion sizes. Much of the restaurant is noisy, but we asked to be seated in a quiet area. We enjoyed the experience!
