    Fettuccine Alfredo w/chicken

    I ordered the fettuccine Alfredo with chicken and it was very good--creamy, flavorful, and a nice portion size. I was looking forward to getting their sangria since I've had it before and really enjoyed it, but unfortunately they didn't have it this time. I tried the Paloma instead, but it wasn't great for me. Still, the pasta made the visit worthwhile.

    This restaurant has a nice large patio seating. The service was decent and staff were friendly. I tried the Caesar salad which was typical but a decent size for $10. I also had the cup pepperoni artesian pizza. It was good but I couldn't taste the hot honey as much as I hoped.

    Recently went for a Sweet 16 party and had a pleasant experience. Staff was so kind and on top of drinks and food. The food was pretty tasty overall as well! We're excited to come back to try other food options.

    My favorite restaurant in the riverside area- I have always had an exceptional meal here. The white fish piccata and Leon's lemon chicken are my favorite dishes. The flavor and freshness is very high quality. I could piel my whole plate the Picatta sauce is so delicious! For pasta I highly recommend the dinner menu the LINGUINE ALLA VINGOLE makes me feel like I'm back in the BOSTON Italian are of east end, that is how authentic and exceptionally tasty the dish is. The rigatoni bolognese is also very yummy! Their Chopped salad is the best I have ever had! Even when I go to LA I can't find a better chopped salad. Also on the summertime they has a watermelon salad which was to die for, I hope they bring it back every year. Needless to say I love this place it is in a beautiful little neighborhood and the restaurant is the main reason I drive all the way their from where I live downtown.

Reviews were good so we came in on a Monday evening. The interior is so cute! Velvety comfy green chairs at the wine bar, smaller lounge tables and couches in the rest of the place. There is a separate room for gaming. We sat at the bar and were warmly greeted by Aria L. She was so courteous and helpful, offering us suggestions on the wines and snacks. They have a great happy hour from 4-7p for $20 wine bottle which is fantastic. The house white was good, although they ran out after a glass and I went for the Simi sauvignon blanc which was so good. The parmesan truffle fries are a MUST. Just $8.99 for a nice sized bowl of crisp, tasty fries with fresh parmesan shaved on top. MM! I had the 12" cheese lovers pizza which had burrata cheese on top oh my GOSH that is gooooood. It's rich so I had plenty of leftovers for the next day. My friend got the 12" Diavola pizza which she loved. My other friend got the Italian panini ($13.99) which he said he was not that crazy about, but he did enjoy the atmosphere and the Guiness. It is a chill place to have a nice conversation without having to compete with loud music or chatter. We are planning to revisit the next time I am here, this was a very enjoyable evening.

The place was relaxing and cozy and welcoming. I do have to say I hated the slots, but that seems to be the thing in North Riverside now. They're turning into a mini Vegas. I will return and sit outside. I need to try the coffee next !

Posto 31 is located in Lagrange Park which is just slightly outside and west of the city. Their restaurant week deal is $45 per person for dinner and every adult in the party is required to participate. We tried the following: 1) Pork belly with a brown butter sweet potato mash and apple slaw - This was a delicious and refreshing appetizer. The fat isn't excessive and there is a good sear with the pork belly. I think it was different in a sense that it didn't exactly go with the Italian theme. 2) Arancini with chicken, parmesan, mozzarella, and marinara. This is the standard fare and you can't go wrong with this selection. 3) Faroe Island salmon with squash puree and Brussel sprout slaw. The salmon was well executed and I loved how it was paired with the slaw. 4) Arrabbiata with squid ink linguini and jumbo shrimp. This was the star of the night and what drew our attention when we first reviewed the restaurant week menu. It is rare to find squid ink linguini in the city and neighboring suburbs. The portion was huge and the flavors were absolutely delicious. We are already planning a return to order this again. 5) Tiramisu was the standard fare and once again, the portion was huge. We demolished it though. 6) Cookie skillet had a square of chocolate chip cookie topped with candied pretzels, vanilla ice cream, and whipped cream. We did not get to try it because our girls just took it to town. So needless to say, it was thoroughly enjoyed. We also ordered the kids' an eight inch pepperoni pizza. It was more than enough for our two girls to share.
