Come early to avoid waiting in a long line. This place is 100% worth the hype and wait! They have an extensive list of menu for everything. What's really nice is they offer half portion of pasta so you can try more in one visit. My personal favorites were the meatballs and all pastas. The pasta was freshly made and satisfies every moment of your meal. Staff were incredibly friendly. Service is great but could be on the slower side - it's supposed to be a chill and fantastic dinner anyways so don't rush through your meal just to make it for your next event. Enjoy!
To start, I made a reservation but wasn't seated until 30 minutes after my allotted time. My name got lost on the seating list? We were seated between two large parties and were not waited on for another 15, no water, bread or anything. The food was good for the price and came out in good time. But the service as a whole just made the experience stressful and on uncomfortable. Wish I had a better experience.
This place was pretty good! We ordered family style dishes, and I got to try a variety of the pastas, meat dishes, and of course the complimentary bread, which the waiters had kept bringing more and more, which we truly appreciated!! The menu is pretty extensive. The portions are not super big though for the price, I wish they were larger. Nevertheless, the food was fantastic. I really enjoyed the gnocchi dish, and the pasta alla vodka dish. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place had two floors, and I could tell is was super popular by how many people were dining in. There was like no empty table![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The servers were fantastic.
Exceptional service and small plates, the perfect dining experience all around. Nestled on the corner of N State Street Quartino is packed with great food and an enforceable dining experience...reservations are a must. We ventured out as a family of four, made reservations in advance for a Saturday night and were ready to feast. The wait staff was s vey accommodating, especially with how busy the bar and restaurant are, think packed in like sardines. Huddled around a small table barely big enough to fit 4 chairs and the abundance of plates, glasses bottles of wine not to mention the never ending small plates, you felt like you were at Sunday dinner. The menu is set up for sharing and you might think it won't be enough but you will still have plenty leftover. Starting with warm olives, minestrone, fresh burrata and tomatoes, and galleria white bean dip with plenty of grilled bread we were content, the flavors complimented each other and were full of fresh flavor. We then moved on to pasta, tortellini with peas and prosciutto, white clam linguine and tagliatelle bolognese, each one better than the next. The perfectly cooked pasta with tons of garlic and fresh herbs, meats and cheese were incredible. When we thought we couldn't eat anything else we were offered dessert. The warm hot chocolate cake with vanilla gelato was rich and delicious and the caramel bananas with biscotti and vanilla gelato were decadent and delicious! A truly great dining experience, totally worth the close quarters.
I had a reservation at Quartino, and we were seated but never assigned a server. The restaurant wasn't that busy given that it was 9:30pm on a Sunday, and we were seated for 30 minutes without any service until I asked someone walking by if we could place an order. Throughout the meal we never got any refills on our water, still didn't have a server, and weren't able to get our check. Luckily there are QR codes at the table so we were able to pay and leave after we finished eating. The Pappardelle Al Sugo Di Pomodoro pasta tasted fresh and the meat was flavorful, but it could've used more sauce and salt. The Campania pizza was bland, had soggy crust in the middle, and tasted like ricotta with some cherry tomatoes on top with a hint of garlic.
Came for dinner during the St. Patrick's Day parade, and it was a bit busy without a reservation. We waited about 20 minutes to be seated, so I would definitely recommend making one ahead of time. When ordering, the dishes came out one at a time as they were prepared, which worked well for us since we weren't sharing. I ordered the eggplant parmesan, and my boyfriend got the gnocchi. Both were good, but his dish was definitely more flavorful. Parts of my eggplant tasted like the skillet it was baked in, which took away from the overall flavor. The bread served at the beginning was also pretty good. Our server was nice and attentive, and the restaurant itself was clean. Overall, a solid experience with a few minor drawbacks.
So good my partner and I came back twice in one trip. I love that you can do half orders to try more. The Cesar salad has crispy crouton crumble. Can't go wrong with any of the pastas. And you have to get a tiramisu to end the night. The pizzas look really good too but we didn't get to try that. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Always very busy and noisy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Tables are a little small and tight space but the food is worth it[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] o
[[HIGHLIGHT]]Super busy and vibey spot for dinner.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We got the funghi pizza and pappardelle pasta to share. I thought they were both good but nothing too crazy or outstanding. My favorite part of the meal was the hugo spritz. It was the best compared to the limoncello and grapefruitcello spritzes. The service was excellent, quick, and attentive. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It would have been nice to be able to sit outside for sunset but the inside of the restaurant still felt cozy and intimate.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]
Everything was sooooo good. The funghi pizza is easily one of the top 3 best pizzas I've had. The pizza had a thin, crispy crust that wasn't dry at all. The mushroom flavor was perfect 9/10. The fondue was 8/10 and so good with the bread, though the bread itself was a little stale which made it a 5/10 on its own. The pappardelle with braised beef was also amazing. The meat was super soft and flavorful. The only thing that could make it better would be slightly more al dente noodles, but still a 9/10 dish. The vibes were amazing. Lively, fun, and perfect for an affordable casual date night in Chicago.
I went here to catch up with some friends, so I apologize that there is a lack of photos for some dishes, but it was all well appreciated at the moment. For reference, 5/10 is average for me. The ambiance of the restaurant is very cute- from my view there were cans of tomatoes and wines decorated on shelves. There are also TVs in the restaurant, but I didn't really pay attention to what they were showing. They also have a deli section in the restaurant which I thought was nice so you can view what meats they offer. Service was very attentive. One thing I didn't like about the dining tables is that there is a pile of plates that take up a good bulk of the space on the table. These plates are for sharing entrees and other dishes with the dining party but I thought the space it took up didn't compensate for the ease of sharing dishes. Additionally the dining area we were seated at was a bit cramped with some seats being directly behind another person's chair. Ambiance: 5/10. Service: 7/10. Espresso Martini: Super delicious and heavy on the espresso. Rich and dark. As a dark chocolate/ cacao lover, this was amazing. They did forget the espresso beans so I guess that means no health, wealth, and happiness for me :'( (lol jk). 9/10. Burrata: The burrata was fresh and creamy . The tomatoes were amazing- they were so flavored with the charred flavor from being grilled. I loved this dish for especially for the combo between the tomatoes providing acidity and some bitterness from the char which was complemented nicely by the mild and creamy burrata. 9/10. Veal Meatballs: Loved the flavor of the meatballs + was seasoned well. The tomato sauce it was in was also really good and tasted fresh and earthy. 7/10. Eggplant Parmigiana: I got this because my Italian coworker recommended it to me a while ago and I love eggplant. This was very good, but relied heavily on the mozzarella to carry the flavor profile. Still nicely seasoned and fresh, but maybe it's because I can't stop thinking about those grilled tomatoes from the burrata that I wish there was a bit more flavor from the eggplant. 7/10. Penne alla vodka: This was one of the best pastas I've tasted. The sauce was incredibly rich in flavor- sweet and acidic from tomatoes, savory from the garlic, and an undertone of spice from the red chilies. We added chicken on it which was also delicious since the chicken soaked up the sauce and the chicken was grilled, providing a bitter flavor to contrast the flavors from the sauce. 10/10. Tiramisu: I love tiramisu so I thought it was fantastic, but my friends who are also tiramisu-holics didn't quite like it. Among our feedback included that the mascarpone cream felt a bit heavy for the dessert and that there wasn't enough espresso to balance out the mild, creamy flavor from the mascarpone. 7/10. Overall: 7/10.

Great service. Amazing food. It does come out at different times. You can also order half plates to share! The gnocchi was amazing. The lasagna was a showstopper. read more
Make reservations or take a chance that there might be a few open seats at the bar. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We were there at 7:30 on a Thursday. The place was hopping and there was a line of people waiting[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant has dim lighting.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]We sat at a high top table in the bar and it was hard to read the menu.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Lots of people seem to order pizza but we had a few other dishes. We started with the GIARDINIERA ROMANA - really good! We then shared the Artisan sausages and the Orecchiette. We finished the meal sharing a HUGE piece of delicious Tiramisu and Limoncello. Service was spotty. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It is dark and loud in the restaurant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Was it the best Italian food we ever had ...no. Was it good, yes! read more

Oh how I've missed thee! What an amazing meal. This place just doesn't miss! We ate so fast I forgot to take pictures! Shrimp Risotto...gone. Asparagus... best I've had. Penne alla vodka..wow!! Simply the best! We will definitely be back! Well done! read more
Dined solo at Quartino on a packed Saturday night, and the place was buzzing -- definitely popular. It was packed and loud. Unfortunately, the service wasn't great. It was slow, and my server didn't check in much, but when he was there, he was nice and offered suggestions. I ordered a half-and-half pizza, and that part was solid -- flavorful and worth ordering. The bread and olive oil, though? Not good. I hate when restaurants bring plain oil with no herbs or seasoning. I realize this was too much for solo dining but I wanted it so for dessert, I finished with the Gran Coppa. It was just okay. The biscotti was hard as hell -- like, I'm not risking my teeth for this . Overall, the food was hit or miss, and the service definitely dragged the experience down. This visit didn't really wow me, if I lived in Chicago, I might give em another shot but as a visitor, there's more to explore. read more

I've passed this place all the time but never went in and I'm so glad I did. A few of my coworkers and I decided to have a holiday dinner here because no one has been and wanted to try this new place. Beautiful classic Italian food with a classic speakeasy vibe. I won't lie, they were so many options and everything we tried was delicious. Especially for the price! Our server was so kind and patient with us. She gave suggestions and helped us based off dietary restrictions. Even if you don't want to eat, there's a lot of different bars within the restaurant where you can sit by a cozy fire, the bar. This is a nice place to pregame and have dinner before the night starts or for a celebration. I will be back. read more
Just stopped in for dessert and a drink at the bar. Waited on right away and our treat came out fast and drinks were very good! We got the Coppa Alla Banana, it was 2 big scoops of Gelato (delicious), with a couple of pieces of caramelized banana and all the other delicious toppings. It's a VERY top heavy dessert, so take care. Enjoyed it, but would have loved a bit more banana. Margarita was expertly prepared and delicious. read more

The service here was amazing. We had a big group, and the servers made sure that all of our questions and concerns were answered. They explained the specials of the night well and they were all very welcoming. The complementary bread and butter with olive oil oil definitely helped fill me up. One of my favorite dishes was the Parmesan chicken. It was pretty small though. They said that it was shareable among the table, but I could've ate it all by myself ha ha. It's also very dark inside. And to get to a table was very narrow not a lot of open space. Makes sense because it was very busy. They did have some outdoor seating near the entrance, but it was too cold to sit outside. read more
Affordable and smaller portions so can try different dishes. Perfect for family style. Ordered - tortellini - wild arugula salad - chicken parmigiana - penne alla vodka - orecchiette My favorites are the wild arugula salad and the orecchiette. I love a good zesty and fruity salad. The orecchiette has a good texture and well seasoned. It's good customer service but can be a bit difficult to get your server's attention because every time I've gone, it's always busy/packed. read more
Definitely not what it used to be. We came here to celebrate an anniversary and were seated upstairs -- it was unbearably hot and stuffy. Our drinks took over 20 minutes to arrive, and our food took over an hour. When it finally came, one pizza was cold with hard cheese while the other was so hot it couldn't be eaten right away. The table didn't even have olive oil for the bread (which was a nasty loaf) and the entire space felt dirty and hectic. Our server never once asked if we wanted another drink or needed anything else. We were honestly shocked at how bad the service, atmosphere, and food have gotten. Sweating our entire meal. read more
9/29/25 Monday We called to confirm if they could accommodate a party of 9 around 8 PM and they were surprisingly able to do so despite the late hour and dinner crowds. We waited about 10 minutes before being seated. Service was great. The food was overall great. We ordered a lot so I'll just speak to the ones that I tried. - Calamari hot and fresh and tender but really salty. - Steak was overcooked. We asked for medium rare. Both dishes were not medium rare. It also a bit too salty. Broccolini was a little tough. - Gnocchi was tasty and chewy. Sauce was seasoned well. - Shrimp: small portion of actual shrimp. The dish was mostly tomato sauce. It had a kick. They should note that the dish is spicy. - Gelato vanilla good but didn't really stand out. The strawberry gelato is pretty sour and sweet, more like sorbet than ice cream. - The Tiramisu was my favorite dessert. Creamy and lightly sweetened. Tip: You can order affogato even though it's not technically in the menu. Ambiance: Dimly lit Italian restaurant located in a tourist central area. There's indoor and outdoor seating. read more
Food is HEAVEN! Cozy, homey vibes. We stumbled upon this restaurant during our spring break staycation for our girls. Looked at the reviews and they did not disappoint! . The server came up to our table and apologized for the wait even when we didn't even have wait at all so I knew immediately that the service was going to be great! And it really was such good service. Our waitress was so sweet and patient as we had a few questions about the menu. Once we sat down, they brought out bread immediately! And the condiments they have at the table are a great touch and so fun because you get to create your own dip for the bread! The assistant manager, Grant, is so awesome and friendly. He came over to talk to us and gave us some background information on the establishment! And what made dinner even BETTER was that he is a PACKERS fan and he was so generous for giving us a treat! The food came out in a very decent time considering how busy they were for a Tuesday evening. Everything was so fresh and hot! We ordered the calamari, one of the best I have ever had (and I order calamari everywhere I go, if it is available)! My husband had their Funghi pizza and he is picky about his pizzas but he ate just about the entire pizza! Our girls split the Alla vodka with meatballs and ate every last bit! I ordered the linguine with clams and the shrimp fra diavolo! PERFECTION!! I ended up mixing them together and it was top tier! Their non alcoholic drinks were very refreshing too! Especially the lemon basil snash and the No-jito! HIGHLY recommend this place! The table next to us (they live in Indiana) we took a picture for them and they said it's one of their favorite places every time they come to Chicago! It's now a place we will definitely bring all our friends and family too! read more

Loved the bread service and it honestly might have been the best part to me. Their dishes allowed for lots of adjustments so you could switch up the sauces per your preference or order a half portion. Asides from the personalization and bread service, nothing really stood out to me. I felt like the sauce was just slapped onto the pasta. The steak was redone twice and still tasted like one of the worst steaks I've ever had read more

Italian food is always a hit. Quartino is a great spot for groups, a beautiful ambiance with dim lighting and seats for large parties. Food is delivered to the table as soon as it's ready and that does mean the party might be disconnected eating, which can be slightly awkward. Staff is pleasant and definitely knows their stuff. Pappardelle Al Sugo Di Manzo - pappardelle was al dente and soaked up the sauce well. Braised beef was tender and flavorful, very savory with a nice touch of saltiness. I do wish there was a way to get additional protein, but I believe the only offer additional chicken and our server recommended against it, which is totally fair for this dish. read more

I came here due to a friend recommendation, but can't say I'd pass this recommendation onto others.. My friends and I had a reservation, but the line for walk in's + reservations were all jumbled into one line at the entrance/door area leaving no separation or efficient system for seating. Despite the reservation, we were sat a bit late due to the delays because of the disorganized check in system. It was SUPER packed on a Wednesday evening and the service was great! Even though it was super busy, our server was attentive and took time to give us recommendations and would check up on us as much as she could have. The space is a bit tight for larger parties and think it would be better suited for a party of max 4 people. I ordered the Polenta fries and Pappardelle al Sugo di Manzo. I could've gone without the Polenta fries, they were a bit dry and overall just not my taste in food. The pasta was good and loved that it was house-made pasta, but I don't think it would've been worth the wait if I did not have a reservation. Someone in my party ordered the Eggplant Parmigiana and I think this was the most outstanding dish I tasted from here. read more
We ordered to go for our pasta and it was pretty busy especially for Valentine Week. The fettuccine Alfredo and bolognese were good with so much flavors but the sausage is a little salty. The ambiance inside is so nice and makes it so cozy. Will definitely come back and try their other things on the menu. read more

I'm so glad we made reservations! The location was also perfect. It was only a block away from the hotel. I HIGHLY recommend making a reservation. We went on a Sunday night and they were BUSY!! The place was packed and buzzing with people having great conversation over their meals. It's perfect for family and/or friends gathering. It really gives let's order different things and share! I heard the pizza is good. But it was only two of us so we didn't order a pie. Ok so I was so excited to eat I forgot to take pictures (I know I know lol). I started with the Bruschette, and for our main. We had the Gnocchi (house made pasta) and Penne alla Vodka (imported pasta). The food was fresh and absolutely delicious. There's a lot of options on the menu. read more

Okay I forgot how much I like this place! I used to come here all the time as a kid with my parents and it's such a cozy atmosphere! They have TVs playing all Italian films all over the restaurant and the decor is very old Italy esc. The best part about this place is the price is because they are so affordable for river north. The pastas are max $20 and most of the pizzas are $15-$20 as well. Considering lately pizza and pasta seemed to cost $30. I would consider this a Steele for the area. We got the Tuscan cow salad, polenta fries, and I had the mushroom risotto. I loved the polenta fries and would definitely order them again. The soda was pretty good overall, but next time I would probably try the pasta. The tiramisu was excellent and a really nice sized serving. Definitely would recommend this for anyone and they have endless complementary bread on the table (Again something you just don't see a lot of anymore). The service was excellent, and even when the servers were busy, the manager stepped in to help us. I'll definitely be back for happy hour or another easy meal with friends. read more
Quartinos is a popular casual Italian spot in the heart of river north to go with friends. The plates are generously portioned and very cost friendly. We went on a weeknight and the place was packed! I would recommend getting a reservation or trying your luck at getting a seat at the bar. We shared the burrata, the pappardelle, fettuccine Alfredo, steak, and the gran coppa. The gran coppa was massive and a delicious dessert to share. If you're up for going out after, redhead piano bar is just around the corner! read more

they don't have any special dress code
Do I need to make a reservation?
Depends on the day. We were able to eat at the bar as a walk in, but a wait for a table was 3 hours one evening. So I'd make reservations to be safe.

No, they have a 550 degree oven and cook the thin crust for a matter of minutes.
