    Italian Sub
    Andrew P.

    Wonderful family owned bakery with weekday lunch options. In a strip mall with other choices to dine in and then stop here and grab a dessert or some bread for dinner. The staff were nice and the insides felt like a traditional Italian joint. Everything I had was fresh and delicious! I didn't bother waiting for dinner and just finished it when I got home. Italian Sub: a grinder with salami, cheese, lettuce, tomato on a crunchy and soft roll. Great for lunch. They make it out back, so let them know you want one while being tempted on your dessert options. Cannoli with custard : crunchy with a nice creamy filling. It was great, but lost out to its brother. Cannoli Sfogliatelle: this was a religious experience for me. The layers were crisp and crunchy. ASMR worthy. The filling was absolutely delightful. You need, not must, need to try one of these. If you don't like it, I'll question your culinary taste. :p

    What a surprise find! I was excited to try the Arancini and I was so glad we did. They were better than most in the Chicago area with lots of filling in a couple of peas. I would've like more peas I was told they are fresh fried every morning And heated up great when I got home. I added a little extra Romano cheese, but that's just me as a cheese lover. Also wanted to try the.Sfincuni it was a little different and salty. I thought the cookies were pretty expensive at $17 a pound so I didn't get any but I also got a.zepolli and it was very good. Ate them all also fast but I didn't get a picture.

    I came across this place through a mention by The Hungry Hound host, food writer & critic, Steve Dolinsky. He had talked about shops around Chicagoland that sell Sicilian pizza slices and I am always on the look out for them. So it was a no-brainer for me to check this place out. I got here between 2:30 P.M. - 3:00 P.M. The first I asked was what Sicilian slices they had and unfortunately to my luck, they were all sold out. That was a big bummer as I had set out to get them and really wanted to have one. The lady who helped said that usually they sell out after lunch time and my take away from that was that they probably don't make a whole lot and when they are gone, they are gone (unless they have the dough to prep and bake fresh ones). Anyway, I was determined to get something from there and not leave empty handed as I liked what I saw in their pastries selection. I ordered one of their Cassata Cake Slice, Sfogliatelle, Pasticciotti and Canneloni. All of these pastries were good and scrumptious. My favorites were the Canneloni and Sfogliatelle the most. They also sell homemade gelato and I tried a couple of flavors which were nice. But I wasn't in the mood for it so skipped it. I am dessert fan and love Italian pastries among others so I left a happy camper despite the bummer of not getting the Sicilian slices. Plus, the service I received was good as well so that also helped leave as a happy camper and return someday soon for more of their delicious goodies. From what I saw here, in terms of their selection variety and price point, it is definitely a must visit place, especially, if you haven't been here before. It's a locally owned mom & pop type bakery shop. And they seem to have a loyal following which is well warranted. I highly recommend checking this shop out.

The restaurant is not busy at all. We were seated right away. Our server was nice and attentive. We ordered pizza and pasta. Pepperoni and Whipped Ricotta Pizza - cooked perfectly, fresh ingredients and delicious! Served hot! Short Rib Pappardelle - to die for! This is very tasty, the pasta is cooked al dente. The short rib sauce is ssosooo delicious! We sat by the bar overlooking the open kitchen. It was nice to see the chef make the pizza and make the pasta.

Normally I hate those kinds of large group dinners, but this was the perfect spot for it. The service was absolutely wonderful. I don't know how our server stayed so cool and calm with a group that size. We got a variety of things. EVERYTHING was amazing. If you have seen any of my other reviews, I always get a meatball when I'm at a place that has them. They almost never live up to my expectation. But this place has the new gold standard for a meatball. It was everything you want. It is fork tender, full of flavor, no chewy ground up bits. The pizzas were authentic and thin. With fabulous house made red sauce that wasn't too thick and overwhelming. The flavor was A+ The cocktails were so good! All made from scratch with love. The ambiance was cozy and comfortable. Perfect for a group or a date. They have a full bar, and also great seating with perfect lighting. This is a new favorite for me in the city.

Boneless Chicken Vesavio, 4/5: My only complaint it the butt ends of the chicken was dry and tough. Otherwise, the sauce is very good, it's savory almost like porridge. The peas surprisingly added nice flavor to it. Wish all the potatoes were crispy tho! Burrata Lasagna, 3.9/5: Good but wouldn't get it again. TBD tastes similar to frozen lasagna. The sauce was nice thick and it had structural integrity to it. Birthday Gelato, 10/10 : Genuinely one of the best things I ate in Chicago. I wish I knew what flavors we got, it was 3 diff kinda.

Every shared food item we purchased from the happy hour menu was savory and memorable. We had the mushroom arancini, rib sliders, prime beef meatballs and whipped ricotta. The happy hour pricing is attractive. Service was top-tier, and the inside is quite inviting. Everyone seemed happy to be there and took care with every step of the ordering and serving process. The bar was full when we arrived, but the host told us that spots at the bar open up rather quickly. This proved to be true, so I am so glad we waited for a few minutes. However, I wouldn't recommend this happy hour for a group of more than 2 because offerings are available at the bar only, and I suspect it would be hard to get four seats together.
