    Tiramisu Classica
    Morgan H.

    We came here for my birthday and everything was a 10/10. We made a reservation well in advance so we were seated with no issues. There isn't a bad seat in the house with all the windows! For drinks we got an old fashioned and espresso martini. Both were made extremely well with high quality ingredients. For the rest of the meal we got the schiacciata rossa, cacio e pepe and new york strip. The bread was amazing! It tasted like a fresh, fluffy pizza with a bunch of cheese on it you cant go wrong. The cacio e pepe was the best I've ever had. The noodles were thick and heavy with a buttery and salty taste. You could even watch them making it from scratch right when you walk in. The steak was also the best steak I've had from a restaurant. Being that we grill a lot its hard to say this about any restaurant for us. The steak was huge, and tender yet cut like butter. For dessert we got the tiramisu! I also got a free mini dessert with a candle! Both were fantastic with a light texture but a ton of flavor. The unicorn design on the tiramisu was cute! Overall we loved everything here. Our bill ended up being around $400 which is crazy high for 2 people in my opinion. Since this was a special occasion we were able to justify it a little lol. I would highly recommend coming here for any special occasion! We were truly impressed by every dish here.

    Upscale pasta restaurant just north of the park. The entrance is on the upper level, be aware when you GPS yourself here as there are streets underground to navigate in this section of the city. Upon arrival, there is paid street parking available. Inside was nice, but it really came alive once the sun was gone. Tuscan vibes, but a little outdated. The service, was poor. The waiter was the kind of waiter that recommended the most expensive dishes on the menu instead of the ones he actually likes. There was a ton of people working yet I had my entree with no drink, not even water. The table next to us made a formal complaint about the service while we were dining. They were quick to make them happy, but it seemed like staff was avoiding our area after their complaint. My waiter would avoid eye contact when walking past my table. The food - some hits and some misses. The focaccia was too soft. The burrata tasted watery, the table side server added too much salt. The prosciutto was some of the best I've ever had. Salty and melted in your mouth. The meatballs, delicious. Great texture. Tasted like braciola. The corn pasta, light yet decadent. A must order. The beans, undercooked, horrible. The pasta of the moment, I loved the zucchini flowers, but it was very similar to the corn dish except it was over salted and too creamy. Doesn't feel dialed in. The pasta itself felt a little too al dente it needed another minute to cook. Really disappointed because I really wanted to like it. I wish the waiter would have tried to recommend I pick a pasta dish that was a little different from the one I already ordered, as I asked. The coke I ordered, $9 for off brand from a soda gun BS. The dessert, a free little treat. Delicious little bite that I wasn't expecting! Good way to wrap up the end of the meal. Overall, I think Tre Dita is overpriced. I think there are spots doing it better, for less. Good but not great.

    The vibes were great with the high ceilings, upbeat music, and beautiful dining room. 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. 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. Overall, it's a beautiful restaurant that's perfect for impressing someone. The handmade pastas are still the stars, but I didn't enjoy this visit quite as much as my first.

    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. The restaurant itself is stunning the décor is elegant with a sophisticated, high-end atmosphere that's perfect for a date night or celebration. 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.

    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. The modern décor was elegant and tasteful, and the soaring 44-foot ceilings and dramatic 40-foot windows created a spectacular setting. 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. 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. 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. 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.

    Can't rave about this place enough. The inside was incredibly beautiful, and the view was impeccable. Every weight staff was very helpful and nice. The food was DELICIOUS!! You have to come here if visiting for the first time.

    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!

    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. The atmosphere was incredible. The place was buzzing with people, the energy was lively, and the space is absolutely beautiful. 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.

    My friends and I had to come back a year after our first visit because this was our favorite place we ate on that trip. Once again service was amazing, the apps, pastas, and tiramisu were all phenomenal. Will definitely come back again next Chicago visit!

    Came here to celebrate my husband's birthday, and overall I'd give it 3 stars. The restaurant itself is beautiful and has a great atmosphere. It was packed on the night we visited, which speaks to its popularity. 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. Overall, the service and ambiance were the highlights of the experience. 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.

    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.

    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. The atmosphere was nice and the view was beautiful. Our server was very attentive as well. This is my new favorite spot and I can't wait to try other dishes!

    The pasta was delicious! Overall, the ambiance and service were great. The only downside was the experience at the host stand. Both hosts came across as very serious and somewhat cold, which made the initial welcome feel a little uncomfortable and uninviting. Otherwise, we had a great experience.

It's a dark chicago pub looking place with dim lighting and mood lighting, making it look exactly like you'd imagine. We came for walk in at 4 and were told we could sit at the bar immediately or wait for a table. We chose to wait for a table because we weren't fully hungry yet, and got a callback at 5, perfect for us. We ordered the sourdough, crab avocado salad, dry aged ribeye, fried chicken, and mac and cheese. Sourdough: 10/10- ate the entire loaf before we even got the appetizers. Salad: 10/10- amazing flavor and unique. We usually never order salad but this sounded so unique and didn't disappoint - creamy, acidic, perfect appetizer. Fried Chicken: 8/10- above average fried chicken on mashed potatoes. Well spiced but nothing to write home about. Ribeye: 10/10- great steak and honestly not bad pricing. Great crust and flavor, would definitely recommend to split for 2 since it's big. Mac and Cheese: 4/10- pasta was not hot and was undercooked. I usually like al dente but this pasta was hard. It was barely cheesy and was like a alfredo sauce more than cheesy, and the crust on top was lukewarm and stagnant like it had been sitting there. Overall great experience but avoid the mac and cheese.

For dessert, got the crème brûlée which the sever recommended to share thankfully with as large as it was.

    Butcher and the Bear is such a great date night spot! We loved the dark, moody ambiance, and the…read moreservice was amazing. Our server took the time to explain each dish, which made the whole experience even better. We started with the rosemary focaccia and Wagyu tallow candle for dipping, which was so fun and something we'd never seen before. The steak tartare with potato skins was another favorite and such a cool twist. For our mains, we loved the black miso cod and New York strip, and the Brussels sprouts were the perfect side. We finished with the s'mores baked Alaska, which was such a fun way to end the meal. It was a whole show and tasted just as good as it looked! We had such a great time here and would definitely come back for another date night.

The good: Salad was amazing with bits of nicely cooked pork belly mixed in and the salad dressing is to die for Focaccia bread was very good but nothing special but the bone tarrow butter was fantastic and carried this bread. Brussel sprouts were flavorful but greasy and overcooked... Beef cheek ragu noodle dish was heavy yet tasty.. Rib eye steak done medium rare was fatty and very very chewy so this was a complete fail, but seasoned very well...extra 10 bucks for some dipping sauce for the steak but worth getting to elevate the steak...Definitely don't do any steak under medium here... Lemon sorbet was the true winner of the night...Delicious without being too tart..... Overall like I said, not worth the $250 price tag before tip...._

From, the service, to the food, to the ambiance, everything was near perfect. Our reservation was at 6pm but we arrived about 10 minutes early. We were greeted and seated immediately. We were seated in one of their semi-private tables surrounded by sheer curtains. Alex was our server, he greeted us right away, and started us with waters. Alex gave us time to look over the menu before taking our drink orders. We did let him know it was our first time dining at Penumbra and would like anything recommendations he had to offer. He provided his recommendations, which were the jalapeño shrimp, the ribeye, and the salmon. My husband went with the surf and turf (ribeye and lobster), and I went with the salmon. Before our meal they serve you a complimentary sipping soup (potato rosemary bisque). We also ordered drinks. He had a mojito and I had a caipirinha. It took a little time for our meal but not more than 10-15 minutes. Everything was prepared as we ordered it, hot, and delicious. If you're in Chicago and looking for a good meal, nice romantic ambiance, and good food, you will not be disappointed with Penumbra.

    Perilla Korean Steakhouse -- Chicago…read more We had a very successful brunch at Perilla. The Kimchi Bloody Mary was definitely one of the highlights. Being from New Orleans, I personally like my Bloody Mary a little spicier and with a little more of that NOLA kick, but this was still a really good option and a fun Korean twist on a classic brunch drink. The food was excellent and gave us plenty of variety. The Korean tray was a great choice, along with the bibimbap and avocado toast. Everything came together really well, and there was enough variety that everyone could find something they enjoyed. Overall, it was a great brunch experience with good food, interesting drinks, and a nice atmosphere. Definitely worth checking out if you're looking for something a little different from the typical Chicago brunch. We were looking forward to the Korean donuts unfortunately they sell out early sometimes so if that's something you're getting for For, you might want to get there earlier in the day. We had reservations at 12:30 pm and they were sold out. The service was good.

It would have been nice to sit by the bar as the inside of the restaurant was beautifully decorated but there was no space inside. The server was very friendly and helped me make the decision on what to order. She recommended the double smash burger with the sauce on the side and I got a Mai Thai (not pictured). The food was tasty. The drink was just okay. Overall, enjoyed the restaurant.

After receiving the wrong order and waiting an excessive amount of time for our food, we ordered the seafood baller which we were told would accommodate six people. That was absolutely not true. The platter came with maybe three shrimp, barely any scallops, and mussels that were mostly empty shells with no meat inside. It was essentially a large platter of shells and nowhere near enough food for six people. When we asked to speak with the manager, he came to the table while I was in the restroom. Although six other people were sitting there and available to explain the problem, he chose to leave and never returned. Without speaking to us or offering to replace the meal, he took it upon himself to remove the seafood baller from our bill. We weren't looking for free food we wanted the meal we had ordered so we could eat. After sitting there for hours, we still left hungry and somehow had a nearly $700 bill for a couple of sides, two steaks, and drinks. Our server was amazing and did the best he could, but the management and overall level of professionalism were unacceptable. When a guest's order is wrong, management should communicate with the table and make an effort to resolve the problem not simply remove the food without discussing it. We absolutely will not be returning. The experience was nowhere near worth the money.

Our server, Jacob, was helpful and his recommendation of the Lyonnaise Potatoes did not disappoint. We had the small whale, an aged ribeye sandwich, and I got the filet mignon with bone marrow butter. The chilled seafood was delicious, especially with the house mustard sauce. My partner said the steak sandwich was the best they ever had. The filet was easily the best steak I've ever had though the dry-aged ribeye at Abrasado in Mendoza, Argentina is a close second. The grand martini was a perfect pairing for the chilled seafood. They threw in a complimentary brownie with ice cream for a bday dessert which was appreciated on multiple levels. We're not affluent and a meal like this was definitely a splurge but I have zero complaints and would 100% come back for a comparable special occasion. Everything was perfect and I'll remember this meal forever. Thanks, Joe's!
