    pancetta restaurant
    Marc F.

    The other night we had a reception in the Bar. It was put on by Marriott. I had The best mahito ever! Excellent meat/cheese plate. The small plates of steak, were so good. Saled was served in a jar. It was a pleasent surprise! The entertainment was just okay though. Good Time for Free! Fortunately I was informed of the event by other guests in the concierge lounge. NOT STAFF! The Restaurant serves, just average food. Fine for breakfast. Gold/Diamond Elite eat for Free. This is where it gets weird. If you don't eat by 9:00 a.m. this is what you get... Juice, coffee, 2 eggs. Potato, meat, and toast. No substitution. Eggs every day, lol "Service is better than the food"

    This little restaurant and bar located adjacent to the lobby of the Renaissance Hotel turned out to be a very, very pleasant surprise. Tired after a lengthy day, we decided to visit the bar for a drink. Great bartender - courteous, cordial, non-intrusive. Samples of the beers on tap were the most generous I've ever been served anywhere! Prices for all drinks were extremely reasonable. And as we sat at the bar, we were able to order from the restaurant (located right through a door next to the bar). Convenience while staying at the hotel, but not a real destination for dinner. Nonetheless, both thumbs up!

    This place is located inside of the renaissance hotel in Northbrook. The service was great! The food was good not amazing. I had the steak and eggs !

    I always come here for a breakfast buffet. They have eggs Benedict on Sunday, cheese with strawberries sauce crepes, and breakfast burritos on Saturday. They also always have fruit, eggs, potatoes, ham or sausage, pastries, juice and coffee. Everything is very fresh and tasty. The staff is excellent, especially Anna. It's my family favorite breakfast place.

A good wine list too. We the fresh baked bread is a nice touch with parm and EVOO. It was a packed house and our server was trying her best but just couldn't keep up -- there were long waits between service steps and the lack of attention to water refills became annoying. We enjoyed our food-- the Caesar salads were fresh and crisp and the entrees were generously portioned-- the spinach ravioli, vodka sauce rigatoni, shrimp linguine, and eggplant parm. My EP parm was excellent -- still crispy with tasty marinara sauce and a nice portion of gooey mozzarella-- the side of linguine with tomatoes and spinach was a nice surprise. We enjoyed the Santa Julia Malbec bottle too. They tack on a 3% charge that the staff doesn't share in so we asked to remove it. Overall good but the service needs to level up!

He loved it, though he wasn't a fan of the sausage mixed in. I had the eggplant Parmesan, which was tasty, just a bit too saucy for my liking. The menu has a lot of options, which made it easy for both of us to find something we wanted. The service was great--friendly, attentive, and on top of things even though the restaurant was packed. It was a Thursday night, and the place was buzzing, but everything still came out smoothly. Overall, we enjoyed our meals and the atmosphere, and I would definitely come back to try more dishes.

The calamari is tasty. Have had fried and grilled. My favorite dish is the vodka penne with crumbled sausage. Great deserts. My wife always finds a good wine. This place is an absolute GEM. Bravissimo!!!!

    Love love loved it!…read more The limoncello cocktail was a great start to the meal, along with the warm, fresh French bread. My main entree of linguine with mussels, clams, and calamari (which I don't usually like unless it's fried) was DA BOMB. It's called fettuccine con frutti di mare, for my future reference. Super flavorful, well balanced, and that white wine sauce was chef's kiss. I looked forward to eating the leftovers the next day, without a doubt, and it's one of my favorite entrees anywhere. That says a lot! Michelle was our attentive and friendly waitress on our first visit. Husband got the chicken limone on both our meals here, and my kids devoured the cheese pizza and fettuccine Alfredo. We have yet to try dessert here because the allure of Graeter's across the street is too great. The dining room seats maybe 20 tables, and there's a small bar area in the back. Easy to make reservations online and recommend doing so, as we tried to walk in around 5:30pm on a Saturday and were turned away as all the tables were reserved, despite the dining room being 85% unoccupied. Patio will be open soon for dining al fresco!

The decor is so cozy, it reminds me of my grandmas house in here haha, I love it. My partner and I split a pizza and it was plenty of food for the both of us. I also got a diet root beer , which is typically pretty hard to find so I loved that. We only waited maybe 10-15 mins for our order. Definitely recommend checking this place out!!

I ordered and paid for two small pizzas at the counter, and learned I had to go to bar for drinks. The same cashier came over to take my drink order, where I paid separately. In about 15 minutes, our pizzas were ready at the counter: One with only cheese, and the other with sausage. We immediately noticed the ruffled-edge crust, which looked more like a pie for dessert. We both took a bite of each pizza, and immediately disliked the cornmeal crust. It tasted to me like it was made from Jiffy corn muffin mix, with a cardboard-like hardness. My wife disliked it so much she barely ate one small piece of pizza. I liked their cheese and sauce, and especially liked the sausage. I managed to eat two pieces thinking I'll give it a chance, but hated that crust so much I couldn't eat a third piece. There are plenty of other items on their menu other than pizza, which are the only things we will consider for any future visit. The dining room is large with a dark, traditional wood decor. Parking is free in their own lot. Having no table service, other than cleaning tables, logically results in a tip and cost savings. Now that I know this is how Barnaby's operates, I am not down-voting them based on service.

    We came for the first time on a Wednesday evening. We sat outside because the weather was decent,…read morethe only issue was the cars are parked so close to the tables, that if someone has just pulled into the parking spot, the heat emanates from their car right onto your chair. Wish the tables were a little bit further away, or maybe along the wall, anyway, that was probably the only issue with the tables outside. The menu is extensive, with a wide variety of dishes. My better half got the pork chop, which was pounded thin yet still on the bone. It had a very nicely seasoned breading with lots of garlic and a few herbs. It also had three or four fresh cayenne peppers, which were sautéed with a butter type sauce and poured over the pork chop. It was nicely spicy with very good flavor. My entrée was the chicken Milanese, which was virtually identical in preparation as the pork chop, except obviously no bone, and no peppers or spicy butter sauce and was served with an arugula salad, which was delicious. Our two table mates got salads, one with grilled chicken, which was nice and warm and the other with shrimp. We also shared an order of the sautéed broccoli. It was amazing! It had nicely crisped and toasted garlic pieces, some lemon and olive oil. It was one of the most delicious broccoli side dishes I've had at a restaurant. Even though I took a pass on dessert, they ordered the cannoli which came two to an order. Am going to have to say that the cannoli shell itself was not very good. I tasted a tiny piece of it, and it seemed to have a little stale/refrigerator flavor and was not crisp or fresh tasting. That was the least favorite part of the meal. Everything else was delicious. Service was solid and there were a decent variety of wines by the glass available. We will definitely return to try other dishes that sounded great!
