Let me begin with Evan Funke is THAT MAN! I live in California and frequent Funke in Beverly Hills often. Tre Dita was recommended by a local but I had no idea until after the fact that this was EVAN FUNKE's restaurant! *Screams internally* We made reservations in the bar area and 10/10 would recommend it over the formal dining area. It feels alive and thriving with conversation and smooth music. Feels like those places you see main characters eat at in movies. Our server was so explanatory with every question we had and you could tell he really knew his shit. All the Italian names can make you feel a little dumb but our server was schooling us and teaching us how to say them correctly in a kind manner. Food...... Fried Squash blossoms are cool to order just to say you tried them. I wasn't like whoaaaaa impressed. But you know what DID have me impressed? That BRUSCHETTA. Omg. Blanching the tomatoes and marinating them?! I wasn't skeptical when it came out but after that first bite I felt like Remy in Ratatouille. The flavor was so simple and so insane. The focaccia was so soft it melted in your mouth but the bruschetta def the NEED TO ORDER app. We also had the panzanella which you can't go wrong. He also serves this at Funke and we get it every time. The pasta...there's nothing to say. It was fresh, flavorful, filling, vibrant! We had 4 different dishes and shared. The limon linguine was my absolute favorite, then rigatoncini, then strozzapreti oxtail, then pappardelle ragu. All rating above 8.5 but the limon is a solid 10. I'm not a big sweets person so I feel like my opinion about the desserts are invalid lol. I heard they were great! I also had the where Hugo I will follow and it is now my favorite spritz. I've shown this to bartenders to try and get this rendition of a Hugo spritz plenty of times. Overall. 10/10 experience. Expensive but absolutely worth it if you're truly a foodie. read more

Tre Dita is as good as people say it is. When you first walk in the room is STUNNING. Truly one of if not the most beautiful restaurants in the city. Everything we had was stellar. We started with both types of foccicia bread which was like eating a pillow. Just absolutely lovely. I do think I preferred the Bianca to the pomordoro, but both were excellent. We then moved onto the meatballs. These are breaded, possibly fried?, brisket meat that is an unreal experience. Then we had our mains. We ordered the filet which I was apprehensive about. I am here for the pasta and didnt want to get weighed down. This was possibly the best steak I had ever had. EVER. Like anywhere. Simply indescribable. Buttery, smokey, fatty, and cooked perfectly. The pastas were also special. Now the best pasta we had was cacio e pepe. Which sounds crazy because it's such a basic dish... but this is the cacio e pepe to end cacio e pepes. Thick bucatini noodles, creamy sauce and just a perfect al dente texture. What they do to this is just pure technique perfected. The next pasta we had was the tortellini. Peas and mint make a flavor explosion. The pasta itself is not the star, but the mint pea filling I could drink. This is a must order. We also had the gnudi. This was good. It was nothing too special but a nice dish nevertheless. The next dish was a Strozzaperetti in an oxtail ragou which was excellent. The oxtail was perfectly fatty and rich to complement the melt in your mouth dish. Finally we had the arbiatta which I tried and was a good dish but too spicy for me. It's spiced with Calabrian chilles and it is a step up from a basic spicy rigatoni. Finally we ended with the Tre Dita Gato which was a devils food cake with chocolate chocolate and more chocolate. No complaints. Just excellent. Overall the night was lovely and our server was perfect. read more

My husband and I came here to celebrate after our wedding and had a reservation for dinner. Overall, there were a few dishes we really enjoyed, but the meal as a whole didn't quite live up to our expectations. I chose this restaurant because he loves the building as it's very unique. The focaccia bianca was excellent when served fresh. It arrived warm, soft, and incredibly comforting. We also ordered the squash blossoms, which were delicious at first, though they became a bit too heavy and oily after a few bites. The grilled asparagus, which was the special of the day, was fine but not particularly memorable. My favorite dish of the night was the cacio e pepe. The pasta was perfectly cooked and full of flavor. We also ordered the steak strip, which was cooked to a perfect medium and exactly how we like it. Unfortunately, the tiramisu was the biggest disappointment. It tasted noticeably sour, which wasn't something I expected, and I wasn't a fan at all. On the bright side, the staff thoughtfully brought out an extra dessert to help celebrate our wedding. It was delicious and a very kind gesture that we appreciated. While the service was amazing/topnotch and the celebratory dessert was a nice touch, the overall food experience felt fairly average for the price point. There were a few standout dishes, but not enough to for me to return. The ambiance is really nice and we were seated by the windows where we were able to see the river and Navy Pier. Just unfortunate that the food wasn't up to our standard that night. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]The vibes were great with the high ceilings, upbeat music, and beautiful dining room.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It wasn't quite as dreamy as the daytime since you couldn't really see the skyline well at night, but it's still a gorgeous spot.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] 8/10. Service was good but nothing really stood out other than our apps coming out fast. 7/10. The Fiori di Zucca (4/10) had a thin crispy squash blossom and creamy ricotta filling, but it was lacking flavor. The Battuta di Manzo (8/10) was solid. The mini parmesan cubes were my favorite part, and the buttery toasted bread really elevated the tartare. The Strozzapreti alla Vaccinara (8.5/10) wasn't as mind-blowing as I remembered. It was a little oily, but the pasta had the perfect chewy al dente texture and the oxtail was super tender. The Linguine al Limone (8/10) was surprisingly creamy and bright from the lemon. I can definitely see why it's one of their most popular dishes. The Pesce Spada alla Ghiotta (7/10) had nicely cooked swordfish, but overall it didn't leave much of an impression. The Tre Dita Gattò (8/10) had great presentation with its chocolate shell and rich chocolate cake inside, but I wish there were a few more textures. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall, it's a beautiful restaurant that's perfect for impressing someone.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The handmade pastas are still the stars, but I didn't enjoy this visit quite as much as my first. read more

Tre Dita is an absolute must-visit. From the moment you walk in, the service is warm, attentive, and genuinely authentic, making the entire experience feel special. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant itself is stunning the décor is elegant with a sophisticated, high-end atmosphere that's perfect for a date night or celebration.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food absolutely lived up to the setting. Every pasta tasted fresh and homemade. We ordered the lemon pasta, the duck pasta, and the seasonal zucchini blossom pasta, and each dish had its own unique flavors while showcasing incredible quality and craftsmanship. To finish, we had the chocolate cherry cake, which was the perfect ending to an already memorable meal rich, balanced, and absolutely delicious. Between the impeccable service, beautiful ambiance, and exceptional handmade pasta, Tre Dita exceeded expectations. I would recommend it to anyone looking for an unforgettable Italian dining experience. read more

Recently we celebrated our anniversary at Tre Dita, which is located on the 2nd floor of the St. Regis Hotel.  Our daughter recommended this popular Italian restaurant because of its stunning décor and ambiance. Knowing that reservations open only two weeks in advance, I booked ours as soon as they became available and requested a window table. The restaurant certainly lived up to its reputation in terms of design. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The modern décor was elegant and tasteful, and the soaring 44-foot ceilings and dramatic 40-foot windows created a spectacular setting.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]However, the tables were arranged rather closely together, and by the time we left, even several tables set up in the hallway outside the bar were occupied by diners.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Remarkably, the restaurant was completely full despite it being a Monday evening. The biggest disappointment of the evening was not getting the window table we had requested. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The hostess initially led us to a curved semi-booth facing the open kitchen, where the heat from the wood-fired grill was intense and servers were constantly rushing past to pick up dishes.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I declined that table, and we were offered another 3-person semi-booth farther into the dining room. Although this area was noticeably quieter and more comfortable, and we could at least enjoy views of the impressive windows, it wasn't the window-side experience we had hoped for. Our server, David, was professional, friendly, and attentive throughout the evening. When I asked for a recommendation for a non-alcoholic beverage, he suggested the NA Aperol Spritz ($16), which was beautifully presented, pleasantly sweet, and very refreshing. My husband and daughter each ordered a glass of Prosecco ($36 for two). To start, we shared an order of Schiaciatta Bianca ($11) and Gamberi in Salsa Verde ($29). The focaccia was light, airy, and fluffy, while the prawns were fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. For my entrée, I chose the Scottadita di Agnello ($66). The lamb chops were available in only two temperatures, either medium rare or medium well, and I opted for the latter, which turned out to be the right choice. The meat was tender, juicy, and full of flavor. If the edges were browned to slightly crispy, then it would have been perfect to me. The portion included four lamb chops. I shared one with my husband and still had one left to take home, leaving just enough room for dessert. My husband ordered the Branzino ($89), which was a generous portion. He described it as "OK," though in his vocabulary, that generally means it was quite good. Our daughter chose the Linguine al Limone ($29) and absolutely loved the handmade Tuscan pasta. The portion was on the smaller side, but it turned out to be just the right amount for her. She let us each have a bite, the pasta was light with a nice lemon flavor, it's quite delightful.  For dessert, we ordered the Tiramisu ($19) and a slice of Pistacchio Cake ($21), which David had recommended. As expected, the restaurant brought us a complimentary anniversary dessert with a lit candle. However, we were pleasantly surprised when David and another server came with 4 desserts, including a complimentary Cioccolato Gatto (Devil's Cake, a $21 value)! David explained that the extra dessert was their way of making up for our not getting a window table. What a thoughtful and nice gesture! All the desserts were very good.  While the Pistacchio cake slice was delicious and had a nutty flavor, it's relatively small and not worth $21 in my opinion.  The Devil Cake was rich and scrumptious, the dark cherries that came with it were fresh and complemented the cake very well, and it was a big portion.  This might be the first time that we were too stuffed to finish all the desserts.  It was very tempting to take the leftover Tiramisu and Cioccolato Gatto home, unfortunately, they were just too messy at that point and hard to box. The total for dinner was $429.51, including the tip. The restaurant also added a 3.5% surcharge. We considered asking to have the surcharge removed and adding that amount to the tip instead, but because the serving team had been so busy all evening, we decided not to. We hope that most of the restaurant surcharge ultimately goes toward supporting the servers. Restaurant valet parking was $36 + tips with validation.  That's reasonable for the area and was convenient. All in all, we had a good and memorable anniversary dinner, I especially loved the sweet ending.  So, 4.5 stars rounding up to 5. read more

Booked dinner for my bf's 30th birthday here, as I heard great things about the view and ambiance of the restaurant. Would have loved a welcome glass of Prosecco - most other Chicago restaurants offer this on a birthday which adds to the festivity. The food was great! The hostess helped us select our mains pastas which paired well with the heartier steak. I was so full by the end of the meal. They did come through with a little birthday dessert which was sweet. As we were leaving, we saw Scottie Pippen waiting for his table! read more

We originally planned to stop by the bar at Tre Dita for just one drink before heading to another restaurant for dinner. The moment we stepped off the elevator onto the restaurant level from our room at the St. Regis, though, we knew our plans were about to change. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere was incredible. The place was buzzing with people, the energy was lively, and the space is absolutely beautiful.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We managed to grab two seats at the bar and were greeted almost immediately by the attentive bartenders. I ordered the Hugo Spritz, and my husband had a Negroni. We honestly weren't planning on staying long, so I didn't even bother taking photos at first. Then we ordered the braised short rib meatballs... and that was the turning point. They were hands down one of the best appetizers we've had. In fact, I might go back today just for those meatballs! After that, we decided to stay for dinner. We shared the New York strip and the tagliatelle al ragù. The pasta was absolutely phenomenal--rich, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. The steak was good, though not quite as memorable as everything else, but honestly, we didn't care. Between the amazing food, the cocktails, the lively atmosphere, and the gorgeous setting, the entire experience was fantastic. If you're staying at the St. Regis or just looking for a great night out in Chicago, I highly recommend grabbing a seat at the bar at Tre Dita. It ended up being one of our favorite dining experiences of the trip. read more

Came here to celebrate my husband's birthday, and overall I'd give it 3 stars. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant itself is beautiful and has a great atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was packed on the night we visited, which speaks to its popularity.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service was excellent throughout the evening friendly, attentive, and accommodating. To start, we ordered the focaccia bread and burrata salad. Both were delicious. The focaccia was easily one of my favorite parts of the meal, especially with the generous amount of Parmesan on top. The burrata was fresh and flavorful, although I do wish it came with some toasted bread or crostini to complement it. For dinner, we ordered two 8 oz filets, the ricotta ravioli, cacio e pepe, and lamb chops. The steaks were cooked beautifully juicy, tender, and exactly the temperature we requested. However, I felt like nearly everything was heavily salted. The pasta dishes and steaks all seemed to have an excessive amount of salt, which overpowered some of the flavors. The cacio e pepe was also a surprisingly small portion for the price. The lamb chops were probably my least favorite dish of the evening. The sauce itself was tasty, but the lamb lacked flavor and just didn't stand out the way I expected it to. For dessert, we ordered the Devil's Food Cake. It was enjoyable, but I'd recommend asking about the dessert ingredients beforehand, as some options contain alcohol. The staff was accommodating and able to make modifications when possible. A couple things were disappointing for a birthday celebration. We adjusted our reservation a few hours beforehand and arrived around 9:30 PM, but weren't seated until nearly 9:55 PM. I understand they were busy, but it was still a bit frustrating. I was also surprised there wasn't any acknowledgment of the birthday no candle or small celebratory touch. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall, the service and ambiance were the highlights of the experience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] While there were some dishes I enjoyed, the food felt overpriced for what we received, especially considering the portion sizes and heavy seasoning. I'd consider returning for the atmosphere and appetizers, but I don't think it lived up to the expectations of a special occasion dinner. read more

This is my new favorite Italian restaurant! The texture of the pastas were all amazing. We started off with a few mocktails. I liked both La Pernaccia and Garibaldi-ish, but La Pernaccia was on the sour side so I liked Garibaldi-ish better. The meatballs was brisket texture, it was good. We had the patate fritte as well and I loved this side dish. I can probably finish it on my own... We got 3 pastas. First we had the papardelle al cinghiale and it had wild boar. It was good. Second we had the strozzapreti alla vaccinara and that was with oxtail. This was my favorite pasta!!!! The pasta was a little chewy (which I enjoyed) and it is not too salty or anything. I will definitely get this again. Lastly we had rigatoni con guanciale e pomodorini and it was good too. It was a little more salty tho. Would be amazing if it isn't as salty. The tomatoes were very juicy. Then we had dessert which I did not include in photos. We had the tre dita gatto which was like a choco cake and it's got some dark cherries on the side. It adds a nice touch. The chocolate itself would've been too sweet, but with cherries it was amazing. I'm not a big sweets person normally but I really enjoyed this cake. It was suppppper smooth. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere was nice and the view was beautiful.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our server was very attentive as well. This is my new favorite spot and I can't wait to try other dishes! read more

Our group of 8 had the most wonderful meal and spectacular service. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's all about sharing which is why there is a lazy Susan on the table.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] As good as the food was Alfredo gave us his full attention and suggestions. The drink and wine service was outstanding. With our group size we were able to really work the menu. We tried both of the Schiaciattas(focaccia)my favorite was the Bianca. For appetizers we loved the squash blossoms and ordered 2. The blue prawns were also amazing and ordered 2. We then turned to the pastas. After a big discussion we ordered 4, linguine al lemone, rigatoni arrabbiata, cacio e pepe, my favorite and we needed another for the table. Maybe I took too much! Also the spaghetti with clams. Still more! We've had the New York Strip Steak before which comes sliced so we can easily grab a slice and ordered it for the table and it was perfectly cooked. We saved room for dessert and had pistachio gelato, tiramisu, lemon cookies. [[HIGHLIGHT]]What a wonderful evening. The room is spectacular and we were there on a Wednesday when Navy Pier has fireworks. What a view![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] You have to look at the picture of the team taking our group picture! read more

Revisited for Mother's Day weekend this year and it did not disappoint! If youre having trouble finding a reservation, I recently learned you can snag an easy one in the main room if you have a Mastercard. Just type in Google "Tre Dita Mastercard" and it should pop up - super easy! Ordered the GAMBERI IN SALSA VERDE since I saw a bunch of people love that and it was also recommended by the waiter. Really good - idk how they made that green sauce, but I was drinking it by the spoon haha. Wish I would've ordered the bread to soak it all up. We also ordered the PICI CACIO E PEPE, STROZZAPRETI ALLA VACCINARA and GNUDI DI SPINACI pastas. All were amazing! You can tell the pasta is handmade and it is thick and has such a lovely chew to it. Seriously tastes like elevated homemade pasta. The oxtail rage one had to be my favorite, but the cacio e pepe was a very close second. Last but definitely not least, for dessert we ordered the TRE DITA GATTÒ & highly recommended by the waiter DOLCE AL PISTACCHIO. Honestly, I had seen so much rave on the chocolate cake online I was so excited for that one, BUT that Pistachio CAAAAAKKKE. O.M.G. That one blew me away. With all the Dubai chocolate pistachio cream hype, I was expecting a sugar bomb, but this was nothing like that. This cake was sooooo good and very subtly sweet. It had such a rich nutty flavor to it - easily my favorite dish of the night! The service was amazing, we were seated by the window with a beautiful view of the city. We arrived before sunset and left at dark - it was so beautiful to see the vibes change in real time. Once again, if you're looking to go out for a special occasion, this is the spot! read more

Tre Dita is a beautiful restaurant with delicious food! The interior is very elegant and makes the meal all the more enjoyable. The staff are all amazing and great! To start, we ordered the Flori de Fiori di Zucca ($26), Schiacciata Bianca ($11), Polpette di Brasato ($26), and Burrata e Crudo ($34). I forgot that the Flori had ricotta inside so that was a surprise when I bit into it. Our waiter cuts the burrata and pours the oil on top. The burrata was delicious and great to share. The focaccia was very light and delicious as well. No need for butter on the bread. The Polpette was good but nothing amazing. I would say that I would skip the Polpette and Flori next time. For the pastas, we ordered the Linguine al Limone ($29), Trofie al Pesto ($42), and the Strozzapreti alla Vaccinara ($34). All the pastas were delicious! We loved them all. I would say that they are on the smaller side and I was still hungry after eating our apps and pastas. Fortunately we also had a couple steaks coming which filled me up. For the steaks we ordered the King River Ribeye (wagyu) ($220) and the Costata Alla Fiorentina ($240). The Australian Wagyu was my favorite. It melts in your mouth and was amazing. It made the other ribeye just taste not as good. The other ribeye was delicious, but didn't compare to the wagyu. Even though we were full, we still ordered a couple of dessert. We ordered the Dolce al Pistacchio ($21) and the Tiramisu Classico ($19). Both were delicious and very beautiful. The Tiramisu caught all of our eyes as the top showed the firehorse as it is the year of the firehorse. It was fun as the top you get to crack open for the tiramisu. We enjoyed our dinner very much and everything was delicious! I highly recommend this restaurant as it is great for a lovely dinner with great food. read more

Visited Tre Dita for Valentine's Day and everything was beautiful...from the view and decor to the overall ambience. The food was delicious; I had the pappardelle al cinghiale and really enjoyed it, and the wine was great as well. Our service was really good and made the experience even better. My boyfriend was obsessed with the bread (he ordered 3 loaves lol). My only wish is that adding protein to the pasta dishes was an option. Overall, a great experience and I'd definitely go back! read more

(Kari's Rating 9.25/10) Came with a friend without a reservation on a Tuesday evening at 4 PM for an early dinner. Even though we didn't have a reservation, we were seated right away in a small corner spot. We got a small spot in the corner and it was so beautiful with the sun setting. We were seated in our server Mark greeted us right away. He was having critically knowledgeable about the drink menu, and I ordered the L'Inizio. They gave us a little shot of vermouth as a palate cleanser. Mark told us that the food would just come out as it was ready. We ordered the deep-fried gnocchi, the Burrata salad, the tomato focaccia and for our mains we ordered a New York strip and the parpardalle a ragu. You can definitely tell the pasta was homemade, and the sauce was very light. The New York strip was delicious and cooked perfectly as I always get it medium rare-more on rare side. It was a lot of food as always and I had plenty of leftovers to take home. I was between the double chocolate cake and the pistachio, but I decided to go a limb and get the pistachio cake to go. I was pleasantly surprised how delicious the pistachio dessert was and I definitely continue thinking about it. Would come back for the vibes and the server as Mark was incredibly personable! read more

YUM!! The bread is the best bread I've ever had I think. I could eat the whole loaf myself. Gnocchi was lovely for the app. Pasta wise, I enjoyed the arrabbiata a lot more than the linguini because I felt flavor fatigue faster with the linguini. That being said, they were both so delicious in their own right. Tiramisu was fantastic! Our server, Josiah, was super accommodating and helped recommend the dishes as well! The restaurant was packed as expected for a Sunday night so it was still a little wait even though we had a reservation. The views of the city from the big windows are spectacular. I'd love to visit again sometime! read more

Me and my boyfriend came here for our 2 year anniversary this past weekend. I had heard of the restaurant on social media and we decided to try it out. We got there late for our reservation, but they were still able to seat us. It may have been because we went in the afternoon around 5pm since reservations are pretty hard to get here. We had to try both steak and pasta, which were probably the best we've had! It was so delicious, but my favorite was their asparagus side! I believe they have seasonal or temporary asparagus dishes at the moment, so I would definitely give it a try! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The interior is beautiful and upscale, so definitely come here for special occasions or celebrations.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I'm hoping to get lucky and have a later reservation in the future so I can enjoy it one more time! read more

The best pasta I've had in the United States! First the restaurant service is amazing. They remember your face and find you to personally walk you to your seats. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The bar seating was fantastic and it's such an elegant place to have dinner.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The menu prices also align with this but the quality of service is great. The servers themselves are a little slow and slow to refill water but personalities are pleasant. The food was excellent but there were some missed items. The mocktails were too sour with too much lemon. The tiramisu also was filled with too much coffee and had condensed milk. Overall not to my tastes. Now the pasta was amazing! The arriabiata was fantastic with a good kick. The pesto pasta was delicious without the pesto overwhelming. And the ravioli was incredible. The star of the show was the focaccia which felt like a cloud and melted in your mouth. Definitely plan on returning here! You will not regret it read more

Upscale, elegance and very diligent service match perfectly with the handcrafted menu that knocks it out of the park. The restaurant has exceptional views over the Chicago river, and even better hospitality. It's a bit pricey, but you can tell that they make every dollar worth it. I'm excited to return soon. My recommendation is to get as many different pastas as possible. read more

Great dinner. Really cool restaurant with great atmosphere. Awesome view. Popping on a rainy Monday night! Tried a few different dishes and everything was excellent. They recommend the foccacia. Definitely a good call because it was really good. Super soft too. Ordered the rib eye steak which was cooked perfecty. Only complaint was that it was too salty. Service was very good and friendly. read more

It was a lovely evening that was highlighted by the exceptional service. Decor was elegant and seating was comfy in the bar (although we thought it wouldn't be when first arriving). We decided to try Restaurant Week even though previous reviews of this event weren't great. We were pleasantly surprised by the portions - we had leftovers even - and everything was high quality and tasty. The desserts were weaker, but absolutely fine. Cocktails were fantastic. Obviously a good value during RW, but bring your wallet for the regular menu. Tip: Park Whiz at the Coast building next door for a much cheaper option. read more

Delicious meal, great ambiance, attentive service (shoutout to Megan), but yes it's expensive. Wish we also had a table by the window but it was a great view and people watching regardless. Loved the pasta bar and watching them hand make the pasta. What we got: - squash blossoms - came highly recommended by Megan as it's not a typical menu item. Was pleasantly surprised, almost like an elevated and Italian take on a jalapeño popper - braised short rib meatballs - so good and they look deceptively small but it's very meat forward - pappardelle - prob our fave dish of the night, also meat fwd and great flavor - Arabbiatta - amazing heat that builds. I usually go for a pasta with protein but this was amazing and a nice contrast to the richness of the pappardelle - chocolate mouse - Megan sent over a nice chocolate mousse to end the meal even though we were too full to order dessert and perfect nightcap - old fashioned - good but nothing to write home about and hate when places don't have the big rock ice - French 75 - nice and sour Already planning on coming back to try the rest of the menu and hopefully snag a table with a view. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]this is such a gorgeous space with so much attention to detail as far as decor goes.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]we were seated in a cute little corner with a velvet couch in the bar lounge area with gorgeous views of the river. it was so intimate.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] the fresh focaccia was unlike any other focaccia i've ever had- light, air, and almost tasted like a classic glazed donut without the sweetness. drinks were great with a very extensive bourbon list which my husband appreciated. the spaghetti alle vongole was absolutely the star of the show. perfect al dente noodles, loaded with clams, and the vino bianco sauce added the perfect level of acidity. i would go back specifically for this. we were pretty disappointed with our steak for the $240 price point. we ordered the costata alla florentina which is 32oz prime bone in ribeye. we ordered it medium rare and it came out overcooked with little very little redness. it wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special compared to other restaurants that we've paid similar price for. the arugula salad that came with it was simple but so delicious- tangy and citrusy. the potatoes were also great. we finished with the dolce al pistachio which is a very light pistachio cake that was perfectly balanced. we will definitely be back solely for the pasta and ambiance. read more

My mom and I had a lovely evening dining at Tre Dita. We were hotel guests and requested reservations ahead of time. The restaurant is absolutely beautiful and we were glad to have a table by the window. The service was A+ and they really made my mom feel special (as she was celebrating a special occasion). We wanted to try so many things on the many but wanted to be cautious and not order too much food. Here are my thoughts on everything that we tried! Fiori di Zucca (squash blossoms): So delicate and yummy! Schiacciata Bianca (focaccia bread): Soft, warm and delicious. I wanted to order a 2nd! Polpette di Brasato (meatballs): Delicious! Again, I wanted to order a 2nd but my belly was getting full. Cacio de Pepe: I would have preferred a smaller pasta and more cheese/pepper flavor, but it was still a good dish. Gnudi di Spinaci: Oh my, so soft and flavorful! I think this was my favorite dish. Dolce Al Pistacchio: Surprisingly good pistachio cake!! Tiramisu Classico: Whoa! This was amazing and so balanced. I typically don't like tiramisu, but this changed my mind. Very well done! read more

We loved our experience at Tre Dita but holy $$$$ get ready to spend some money. We got seated around 5 PM on a Saturday night and had a good view of the river/buildings. We were seated promptly and given menus and quickly ordered cocktails. Not sure if they were short staffed but from the time we ordered our cocktails to receiving cocktails and ordering food was at least 15-20 minutes. After this no other issues. What we ordered: -Schiacciata Bianca (5/5): Must have at the table, delicious, light, and warm -Gnocchi Fritti (4/5): Wonderful cheesy goodness -Alici Marinate (2.5/5): Anchovies were overly salted but the salsa verde made up for it -La Panzanella (5/5): The burrata made me feel like I was back in Italy. The cherry tomatoes were so crisp we were fighting over them. -Gnudi Di Spinaci (4/5): My husband loved these as they were made out of ricotta cheese but I thought there very heavy being made of ricotta. Still good but harder to eat. -Tiramisu (4/5): Decent and huge but beautiful read more

Absolutely loved this restaurant!! My friend asked me to go to dinner with her because she had reservations and couldn't cancel last minute. Glad I was able to go because it has been on my list! It was busy when we arrived but we only had to wait a little bit until we were seated. It was packed but was not really loud. You could still hold your conversation without raising your voice. Loved everything we ordered. We got 2 salads....yes, we really ordered 2 salads. We both love salad and couldn't decide so we got both to share. We also got filet mignon and pasta to share! Everything we ordered was delicious. We definitely cleared both of the salads!! Loved the little spicy kick to the pasta and it was cooked to the perfect texture as well. The filet was perfect portion for the both of us. Of course, we both loved the arugula that came with it also. We were both so full but of course, there's always room for dessert! We decided on the olive oil cake. I've never had it before so I didn't know what to expect. My friend assured me that it was good and nice and light. When it came out and I tried it, I think I was hooked!!! It was delicious! Definitely was not disappointed and I want to come back again for other items on the menu we didn't get to try! read more

TL; DR: Amazing Pasta, Top Notch Service, & Nice Views I visited this place on a Tuesday night. We had a lovely table with a view of the river and felt well taken care of by Quinn, our server. Although the space had some tall ceilings and many tables, the volume of the restaurant was never too loud. I will point out that going on a Tuesday did mean a little bit more business wine and dine tables than usual, but it was still great. The drink menu was vast and listed multiple signature drinks, wines, and spirits. The pasta was delicious and would go back for more. The short rib pasta was recently added the menu and is rich and amazing. The arrabbiata was fresh and the cacio e pepe was a classic. I was also was shocked to know it was a Lettuce Entertain You spot (great for racking up points!). Can't wait to revisit and try more pastas! read more

Absolutely stunning restaurant located in the St. Regis. The bar alone is gorgeous, and I would have been perfectly happy dining just there, but the view of the city from the dining room is truly to die for. Service was good, though something felt slightly off. Maybe just a bit awkward. The hostess came across as a little snobbish, though that could be my expectation for the usual warm, smiling welcome at most establishments. Our server was friendly and attentive, but there was just a subtle, hard-to-describe vibe that felt off. The food, however, was phenomenal and hands down some of the best Italian I've ever had. Battuta di Manzo: 9.5/10 Hits all the taste sensations-acidic, fatty, salty, and umami. Only reason it's not a 10 is that the crostini was a little hard to bite, but I would definitely order this again. Fiori di Zucca: 9/10 The best stuffed squash blossoms I've ever had. Perfectly crispy and not overloaded with stuffing which I appreciate, as I'm not a huge ricotta fan. The herb seasoning on top added a great depth of flavor. Linguine al Limone: 8.5/10 Perfectly balanced citrus that wasn't overpowering. Cooked al dente! Rigatoncini all'Arrabbiata: 8/10 Again, perfectly al dente with a flavourful sauce. Could have used a bit more spice. Pici Cacio e Pepe: 10/10 My favorite dish of the night. Perfect in every way. Not much else to say other then that you have to order this! Steak: 9/10 Honestly don't remember the cut, but it was incredible-perfectly cooked, super beefy, and easily one of the best steaks I've ever had. read more

I had am amazing experience at Tre Dita! My friends and I ordered: Apps- BRUSCHETTA CLASSICA POLPETTE DI BRASATO Main- LINGUINE AL LIMONE TORTELLINI ALLA PANNA NEW YORK STRIP Everything was cooked to perfection, and we left full and satisfied. For my birthday, they also gifted a lovely dessert, which was a sweet surprise. They do have a restaurant surcharge, but that can be easily addressed. Our server Levi was amazing, the service in general was top-notch, and the ambiance was breathtaking. Overall, a fantastic dining experience. read more

The food was good, but the attention to detail was very disappointing. We came here to celebrate my boyfriend's birthday, and I handed birthday candles to the host to give to our server. Unfortunately, the server completely forgot about them. It wasn't a busy night--it was a weekday--so that made it even more disappointing. For the prices they charge, I expected much better service and attention. I can see why most of their awards are for their architecture and not quality. read more

Lettuce Entertain You has never let me down. Tuscan Italian handmade pasta. Second floor views of Lake Michigan and Chicago River. Marble, high ceilings, intimate and elegant style to this place. Thank you to the wonderful bartender for assisting me with a deep bourbon selection and explanation and opinion of the menu. I love this place. Thank you Tre Dita team and Chef Funke! read more

We got lucky and snagged a reservation for a Thursday evening at 6:30. We were seated promptly, shown the pasta lab on the way to our seats and for a chance to walk through the beautiful ambiance and decor around the restaurant on our way to our seats. What an incredible ambiance!! Beautiful and so picturesque. Great for a fancy date night, girls night or whatever you're looking for. We started with the Schiacciata Bianca (focaccia), the gnocchi fritti and gamberi in salsa verde (prawns). For pastas, we got the rigatoncini all'areabiata, cacio pepe and strozzapreti alla vaccinara (oxtail ragu). For meat, we got the pollo alla toscana (chicken) and for dessert we got the tiramisu. When I say that everything was esquisite I mean it. The focaccia is a must order. It's light, airy and fluffy. The gnocchi was basically cheese curds but in the most incredible sauce ever (I think it was the caccio pepe sauce) and when I say I could drink that sauce...oh my. The blue prawns were a complete hit too. The salsa verde is so herby and tasty! Couldn't help but keep the sauce and dip our bread in it. All 3 pastas were delicious! The pastas are all made fresh and you can tell. No bloating here! The arrabiata sauce did have a slight kick, but we loved it! Caccio Pepe was a classic, but this is one of the bests I've ever had. Still, my favorite was the oxtail ragu pasta. It was so incredibly flavorful that I couldn't help but ordering one to go. Finally, our meat dish was the chicken. I think this was my least favorite dish of the evening. Personally, next time I'd go for steak but we had a member of our party who doesn't eat beef and the waiter recommended the chicken. The flavor was good, but I didn't enjoy the texture. It felt a bit soggy and the sauce was missing something. Chicken wasn't the most tender I've had either. Slightly overcooked. Finally, the tiramisu was great! Not overly sweet, a bit strong on the espresso flavor but oh so delicious!! The service was also top notch between explaining the menu, giving recs and taking our picture we loved them!! read more

This place is very close to my work so I met a friend here for a girl dinner. It's pricey but the vibes and views are really cool. Unfortunately we didn't get a table by a window but the inside is beautiful to look at regardless. Service was attentive. We started with the focaccia which I would skip next time so make room to split another pasta dish. We then had the aranchi which were so fluffy and light, I could have definitely eaten more of these. For the pastas, we both agreed the STROZZAPRETI ALLA VACCINARA was our favorite but the others were good too. Finally ended the night with the tiramisu which I wasn't a huge fan of. It was a bit bitter for my taste. Overall great good and company in a moody vibe! read more

A few days ago, I went with my family for dinner at Tre Dita to celebrate a birthday. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance was just as nice as you'd expect, with a great view that unfortunately isn't as great for photo lighting.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The waiting area as you enter is gorgeous, with beautiful gold lighting and elegant marble floors. There was even a velvet rope separating the dining area from the waiting area![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] To start, we ordered a schiacciata bianca, which was super soft, airy, and just the right amount of salty. My family was very tempted to order another! It was filling without being too heavy, and it made the wait time seem short. For reference, we waited around 5-10 minutes for the bread and another 10 minutes for the rest of the food. I ordered the rigatoncini all' arrabbiata. Overall it was alright, and the pasta itself was good. However, there was a large portion of what looked like pure oil sitting at the bottom of the dish, and the dish came with too much cheese that made it hard to appreciate the pasta. I'd recommend asking for lighter sauce and cheese on the side. Also, the pasta wasn't as spicy as I hoped (or expected, from the literal pepper on the top), so you might want to ask for pepper flakes on the side as well. My sister ordered the linguine al limone, and I stole a few bites (but forgot to take a picture...). This dish was incredible! The pasta was chewy and delicious, and the sauce had a lemon flavor that made every bite taste fresh and light. This lighter sauce definitely brought out the handmade pasta's quality better than my dish. Lastly, we ordered a New York strip for the table. The spices in the meat's crust were excellent, but the dish cooled very quickly because it was sliced, and it got hard to eat the last few bites. The service throughout the night was lovely, and our waitress gave my mom a free small dessert with a cute candle! We ended the evening satisfied. I took off one star for the subpar pasta I ordered, but otherwise, this restaurant was the perfect way to celebrate my mom's birthday. read more

Heard from a friend that visited Chicago about the focaccia and pasta. I would say I enjoyed the salad, meatball & pasta the most. The focaccia was airy and doughy. The linguine noodles were good texture but it was very lemony, almost too much. The salad had great dressing. The service was great, our waitress checked in on us and gave us a run down of the menu for our first time. Unfortunately they ran out of tiramisu but she was kind enough to give us complementary cookies instead. Love the lounge and bar side, didn't get to see much of the view but the low dim lighting and furnitures felt perfect for an intimate dinner. read more

I wish I could have this everyday three times a day haha . My favorite thing I've had at this restaurant so far :) Tortelli di zzuca - which I loved but I'm glad it wasn't my main course. It's definitely very sweet and more of a shareable pasta . Still delicious :) Tagliatelle al ragù- this one was my favorite . Simple, classic , delicious . Pappardelle al cinghiale- also yummy read more

We tried the lounge as it was difficult to find a late night dining table. Truly lovely setting and ambiance. The service and hosting were great. Unfortunately the desert menu is great but not outstanding so you're definitely paying for the vibes here. The pistachio cake did stand out because it was exceptionally well made. I will return to try their dinner menu! read more
