   Way too overpriced for what you get. Great pizza for a good price but starters were not good and very expensive. Bruschetta with figs and ricotta is priced at $28 which is ridiculous at its own. We asked for prosciutto as an add on and they charged an additional $11 bucks for three slices of prosciutto. Not worth it. Tuna tartare was dry and seems to have been sliced, prepped and cooled a day in advanced. Also wine list is very much lacking, $24 for a simple and plain chianti. Much better Italian places with better food and value for money in Chicago. Only people with bad taste like this place

    This is not the first time I've been to this restaurant and they have over-booked reservations, so sadly this is a trend and we will not be going back. This was a special night out to celebrate my friend's birthday and she left feeling rushed, stressed and heart broken. I planned ahead and booked this reservation 2 months in advance, and we arrived on time, so to be told after we sat down that our group of 7 has an hour to order and eat because there was a private party coming in, was extremely disappointing. If you are going to put such a short time limit on tables, that should be communicated when making the reservation. I can look past the moving tables mid-dinner, but to be constantly reminded we needed to be out of there ASAP and the manager being rude to us, I have never been treated that way at a restaurant before. Our bill was $800 and we couldn’t even enjoy ourselves, so disappointing.
