Had drinks at the bar, that's all most people are going to be able to manage through the rest of the year so I figure it's worth writing about. Reservations are only made 7 days in advance. This is definitely *the* place to see and be seen in Chicago right now. The hotel is beautiful and the drinks are fantastic--very high effort at reasonable prices. Lounge seats are not conducive to eating. read more

We went to Tre Dita for our anniversary, hoping for a special evening. Instead, it turned into a complete disaster. We had requested a window table. When we arrived, they showed us to a table in a hallway. After some conversation , they moved us to a "better" table -- still nowhere near a window. We brought a special bottle of wine -- over $200 retail, if you could even find it -- knowing corkage was $50. Fine. But apparently, the $50 doesn't even cover pouring the wine? We had to pour it ourselves. The food itself was good, but not remotely good enough to make up for the service failures. The ultimate insult: we ordered two glasses of cabernet. There was only one cabernet listed by the glass on the menu. Instead, they brought something else -- and when the bill came (mid-glass!), we found out they'd served us wine at $74 per glass! When we questioned it, the waiter passed us off to a manager, who "generously" agreed to charge $19 per glass instead. Then -- unbelievably -- they took away our half-finished glasses. Were they planning to resell the wine to someone else? The whole night was an embarrassing, overpriced mess. What was supposed to be a beautiful anniversary dinner turned into a disaster. We live in Chicago -- there are so many better places to spend your money and have a real fine dining experience. read more

This is a must if you're visiting chicago!! It's in the st regis and I recommend making reservations well in advance. To start, we tried the bread which was the lightest and most flavorful bread I've had! We also tried the bruschetta which was very fresh. For our meal, we got the rigatoni, lemon pasta, and the gnudi pasta which was to die for. I could not stop eating it! I will definitely be back to try other items. read more

We got the Schiacciata Bianca, Linguine Al Limone, and Rigatoncini All'Arrabbiata. The pastas were amazing. The bread was super fluffy, but probably wouldn't get it again there was nothing to dip the bread in. The tiramisu was great not overly sweet which was perfect. the interior of the restaurant is decorated beautifully and offers a great view of the buildings along the river read more

Review for Tre Dita We were really looking forward to dining at what we thought would be one of the top restaurants around. As we stepped into the grand entrance of Tre Dita, we were instantly transported into a luxurious, fairytale-like atmosphere. The decor is truly something to behold--an impressive and unique creation. We were celebrating my wife's 60th birthday with a party of six and were seated in the grand room with incredibly high ceilings. While the location of our table offered a fantastic view, it felt oversized for our group of six, making conversation difficult and leaving us feeling a bit disconnected from one another. Our experience started on a positive note with a friendly and energetic server who made us feel very welcome. We ordered the short rib meatballs and Focaccia bread, both of which were very good. For our main courses, we tried a variety of pasta dishes, and I opted for the filet steak. The steak was flavorful and tender, but I felt it could have benefited from a sauce and a more generous serving of vegetables beyond the small portion of arugula. The pasta dishes, though, were just okay--not quite worth the $30+ price tag, and the portions were on the smaller side. The portions and quality the food did not justify the extremely expensive pricing. My daughter brought along my wife's favorite cupcakes as a birthday surprise. When we checked in, the restaurant agreed to hold them and bring them out at the right moment. However, I was surprised to find a $30 charge on the bill for this service, which was not disclosed in advance, especially given that no complementary dessert was provided. Additionally, we had requested tap water but were served expensive bottled water instead, which added to the overall cost. The restaurant also included a vague $16 surcharge on the bill. After questioning these charges, the server and manager removed the bottled water and cupcake service fees, but our server's attitude noticeably changed afterward. She left us unattended for a long time and didn't refill our water glasses. As long-time fans of Lettuce Entertain You restaurants, having dined at all their restaurants for close to 40 years, I have to say this experience was mostly disappointing. The ambiance is undoubtedly stunning, deserving of 5 stars. However, the food was only worth 3 stars, and the service, unfortunately, earned just 2 stars. Overall, I would rate Tre Dita at 3 stars. I hope that my feedback will help you level up your food and service to meet your decor and ambience standards. read more

Tre Dita has been on everyone's list and who could blame us? The view is incredible. Reservations were a little difficult to get but we were able to snag one on a Sunday night. Though the restaurant is incredibly beautiful, only a few tables are against the window where you can see the Navy Pier. For appetizers, we shared the gnocchi fritti, which was nothing too special but overall had good flavor, and the steak tartare. The steak tartare was great and I really enjoyed the crispy onions for the play on texture however only downside is there was not enough bread for the tartare. For our main dishes, we shared the tortelli and cacio de pepe. Both honestly were underwhelming. I was most excited about the cacio de Pepe because it looked so bouncy but it was undercooked and hard to chew and it was way too oily. As for the tortetlli, the plating was really messy.. not sure if that was from the kitchen or the delivery to our table but it didn't feel like we were eating a dish from one of the most beautiful buildings in the city. We were really disappointed since we were anticipating this to be a great experience. Not too sure if we would come back as service was also not as attentive as we had hoped for. read more

Yikes - sad to say that this was a super disappointing experience. We were very much looking forward to coming here since recently moving to Chicago. This place is WAY overhyped and even more overpriced. The food is mediocre, the best thing we had was the focaccia. We also ordered the squash blossoms (they were fine), cacio e pepe (tasted exactly like velveeta Mac&cheese), and a steak (nothing special). Overall the food did not live up to the hype in any way. I don't understand why people are going crazy over this place. The ambiance feels like you stepped back into the 80s in terms of design. It's definitely upscale, nice marble and furniture, but everything feels very dated, even though this is a brand new hotel so that must be what they were going for? Service was okay. We ordered a bottle of wine and were pushed toward the most expensive option by the server ($300+). We did not order that bottle, but went for a more reasonable option and it was again okay/not amazing. Seems like they've really tapped into the influencer market to hype the place up, but it does not in any way live up to anything it promises. So overall, save your money and go to one of the many many other Italian restaurants in town and you'll have a much better meal/experience. I would've given a 1 star but the focaccia was pretty good read more

Loved the food and ambience. We are vegetarian. We LOVED the fried squash and spinach pasta. So different unique and the fresh pasta and cheese just melt in your mouth. The fresh focaccia bread was good too. Will hope to visit again and try the other pastas too! Amazing service too read more

Making a reservation was very easy thanks to their staff and despite being alittle bit late due to parking reasons, we were able to be seated with no wait. Pictures don't do the place justice as the aesthetic to everything is elegant and regardless of what your choice of food is, there's no wrong choice. Me and my girlfriend were able to celebrate our one anniversary there with a complimentary dessert to top the night of. Would definitely recommend and be a returning customer! read more

Food was good, cocktail was a little on the strong side, I know that's not usually a problem for most people, but it definitely destroyed the flavor of the drink. Our waiter spoke no English, so I wasn't sure if he understood anything I was saying. Didn't feel like there were a lot of gluten-free options, but I couldn't be sure Because he didn't understand gluten-free. Hopefully they'll get that ironed out. read more

Tre Dita is a sleek spot that brings a taste of Tuscany right to the St. Regis in Chicago. I went in with high expectations and left pretty satisfied--though my wallet felt it. We started with the Schiacciata Rossa, which was crisp and flavorful, followed by the Tagliatelle al Ragù that had rich depth without being too heavy. The star of the night was the Bistecca alla Fiorentina--a massive porterhouse cooked rare-plus, perfectly charred and juicy, though it set us back $220. Dessert was the Tre Dita Gattò, a decadent chocolate cake that hit the sweet spot. Service was attentive, and the lake views from the dining room added to the upscale vibe. All in, we spent about $350 before tip. It's a splurge, but for a special occasion, it's worth it. read more

My wife has been wanting to go here for quite a while. Her birthday is coming up in December. I wanted to surprise her and take her here for her birthday. Like most people when something is important like a birthday and a very popular restaurant I you set the reservation up months in advance. Apparently these guys don't let you do that. You can make the reservation 14 days in advance. So I set a reminder on my phone. Attempted to make the reservation and the earliest was 10:30 at night. Are you kidding me? Called the restaurant and was told they had a partial restaurant buy out. This is not right. This totally ruined my plans for her birthday dinner. Horrible policy especially when you allow partial restaurant buy outs. read more

The ambiance alone could warrant a 5 star review. Stunning floor to ceiling windows in the dining room looking over the river elevate the dining experience. Service is very professional and helps you with the cadence of the Tuscan dinner, coming out in courses. Food is also of great quality. Can't wait to come back at our next occasion to try some more handmade pastas. read more

After a few failed attempts at securing a reservation, I finally was able to snag a spot on a Saturday night. The staff were so friendly and helpful, and the ambiance was gorgeous. The Schiacciata Rosa was so soft and light. Loved the panzanella salad - I highly recommend! They make all their pastas in house and we thoroughly enjoyed Cacio E Pepe and rigatoni arrabiata. The Trodie al pesto was on the salty side and only dish I wouldn't recommend. Tiramisu was delicious and one of my favorites that I've had in the city. Prices can get expensive, but worth checking out for a special occasion! read more

Just left the restaurant about 20 minutes ago and felt like now was the perfect time to leave a fresh review. Shout out to Mark from Michigan--he was honestly the saving grace of the night. He was kind, attentive, and really made me feel better throughout the whole experience. My husband and I came here to celebrate our anniversary and had requested window seating in advance. We checked in about 10 minutes early, but somehow, everyone who came after us was seated before us. We were like, okay... whatever, let's be patient. When we finally got seated, we walked past four open window seats... only to be placed right in front of the kitchen--literally in the hottest corner of the restaurant. The heat was so intense it could've melted my ONESIZE setting spray. We kindly asked to move because we didn't want to spend our anniversary in a sauna. We got moved, but the table was tiny and sandwiched between two other groups. At this point, We just let it go, but honestly, the vibe was off the whole time. (Not to mention anyone that had color pigmented skin was given a seat in the back. I thought maybe that can't be right until 2 other groups of pigmented color in their skin showed up next to us in the back) **DO NOT SPEND YOUR MONEY WHERE THEY DON'T WANT YOU TO ME SEEN AS A CUSTOMER** This is so disheartening in CHICAGO it's disgusting this place is even advertised. This place could have potential, but it was a one-and-DONE for me. If it wasn't for Mark, we probably would've left. Thank you, Mark, for literally carrying the whole restaurant on your shoulders and doing your best to turn the night around. As for the rest of the staff who made those seating choices--just ask yourselves how you'd feel if that was done to you on your anniversary. read more

Amazing ambiance, impeccable service and exquisite cuisine. The house-made pastas are a highlight, steaks are great, the focaccia toscana, braised beef short rib meatballs, wild boar ragù and OMG, the tortelli de zucca really stood out. The restaurant's decor, tapas style dining and city views really enhance the experience, making it a must-visit for date night or business meetings. read more

THIS IS A MUST!!! I've never had a waitress tell me I should indulge in my entree asap which I don't blame her because that bite and every after was taste bud numbing! Their main dining room is magical. I was in awe the moment I stepped in. Beautiful restaurant in a gorgeous building. read more

Tre Dita - Heirloom spinach ricotta wild mushrooms brodo di funghi paramigiano reggiano - Italian Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

So let's start with the ambiance....stunning on the restaurant side. Reason for my low star rating is that we were the second table that got seated, however we were seated in an area with no view and our backs towards the windows. It was only 2 of us and we were put in a gigantic booth with no view. Part of an experience at a restaurant is the ambiance/view. Disappointed. Now the the food...The focaccia was delicious. Salad was ok. Tortelli di Funghi was rich but tasty. The papparadelle Al cinghiale was good but nothing out of the ordinary, but we enjoyed it. Service was good. Waiter and staff were knowledgeable and friendly. UPDATED: Tried some different dishes. Tried the lemon pasta, cacio e pepe and the rigatoni arrabiatta. All were amazing! read more

Food, service, and views were all fantastic. The vibes were immaculate. I will definitely be returning here. The espresso martini was subpar but everything else I had was absolutely fantastic. They were able to accommodate me at the bar on a busy night without a reservation. read more

Reservations are tough to get if you don't stay up until midnight a week in advance for their release. The food - we had the focaccia, squash blossoms, a couple of pastas and one of their steaks. The focaccia, squash blossoms and pastas were good. Probably a little overpriced for what they were. You can find pasta just as good if not better at restaurants slightly easier to get into. I will say the steak was impeccable and well worth its price-would come back just for that! The ambiance & staff were both great! Gorgeous views and friendly, professional and attentive servers. The one thing I would note is that their kitchen is open which I think is what led the dinner room to be quite warm, would recommend dressing accordingly. Overall worth it if you can get a reservation just to see the views and interior there but food wise plenty of other great Italian spots in the city that are comparable or better. read more

I've wanted to eat here for a while and as a good Chicago foodie I made the commitment. The commitment to set my alarm at 11:50pm and get ready to make my reservation at 12:00am 7 days in advance. And yes, It's worth the hype as Chicago's "it" restaurant at the moment. The decor is stunning, our server Ryan was outstanding explaining the menu and providing warm and attentive service. The Food was thoughtful, well cooked and well seasoned. Highly recommend the Focaccia and Squash Blooms to start. A+, will return again and again and again... read more

Was only able to have cocktails here but heard you have one of our favorite managers Brad Gates working there so of course we had to check it out. It was absolutely beautiful. The cocktails made by Michael were delicious. We met Kim the bar manager, who was so helpful with answering our questions about different cocktails, we might enjoy. Once again, it looks like Brad has a given his golden touch to yet another restaurant. We look forward to going back for dinner soon! read more

Tre Dita - Absolutely delicious cocktails - Italian Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I'll begin this review by saying, believe the hype! I came on a Wednesday night, for my birthday dinner, and it did not disappoint. The food was 5/5, the ambiance was 5/5 (great views, beautifully decorated, and overall, just sexy); however, our waiter was the only reason this experience didn't get 10 across the board. He saw a group of women of color and immediately thought he can go 'sister girl' on us, not to mention how very condensing he was. I'll do him the favor and not state his name, but in the future, I think it's important to treat all patrons with the same respect and level of decorum. Now, back to the food. Sadly, I didn't take any pictures because we immediately indulged, but here are the items I ordered and can't wait to go back to get eveyrhing again: SCHIACCIATA BIANCA bread and the beef tartare for starters. My mouth waters just thinking of both. For the entree, I ordered the TAGLIATELLE AL RAGÙ pasta, along with the ribeye, which just melted in your mouth! Everyone else also loved their entree meaning it was all delish. The tiramisu is also a must get item, and don't even get me started on their red wine selection. Overall, I had a phenomenal experience and look forward to Going back! read more

Awful experience here. Would give zero stars if I could. From the moment we walked in the staff were condescending, rude, judgmental and acted like we were children who couldn't afford to be here. Mind you we are 30 years old and were dressed for the occasion. Never once have I been treated like that at a restaurant whether it be fine dining or a casual spot, let alone a restaurant inside a luxury hotel. The price point is insane for mid Italian food that you can get at one of the various Italian spots in Chicago. God forbid in actual Italy where no matter where you go it was delicious. Seemed like a bunch of conceited wannabes who enjoy a haughty crowd rather than a classy polite environment with mutual respect between customers and service. read more

I'm hesitant to leave this review because I'm going to make it even harder to get a reservation!! When I say everything about this experience was excellent.... I mean EXCELLENT!!! The room is spectacular!!! It's has breathtaking views and is so luxurious and classy. Many restaurant groups could take note; HOSPITALITY was top notch from the host, bartender, busser and especially our waiter Mason! He was knowledgeable about the menu, coursed our meal perfectly, and remained warm and welcoming the entire meal. I can't say enough about his level of service. Now to the food, the Cacio de Pepe is the best we have ever had, comparable to what we ate in Rome. The focaccia was so well balanced, light and flavorful. There was not a miss in the entire meal. We also had a ribeye, lemon pasta, braised kale, short-rib meatballs and the pesto pasta. Every single item was a culinary experience. This is hands-down one of the BEST dining experiences from beginning to end. Tre Dita, keep doing what you're doing! Thank you for a wonderful experience!! read more

Loved it all. Swanky place with a great view. Thought it would be higher up in the hotel but still perfect. Amazing service and loved our waiter, forgot his name- maybe Antonio? He was great and I loved his recs. We were debating the pesto dish or not and he really gave us good guidance about the pasta being made out of chestnuts so we stayed away from it. Short rib meatballs with the marinara sauce werw delicious. Focaccia bread melted in my mouth i could have had 4 more orders. Prosciutto and burrata were fresh and tasty. And we enjoyed both pasta! Very different flavors but great. Could tell the pasta was handmade. Overall just really enjoyed the place. Wish a reservation was a bit easy to get but no regrets! read more

Ambiance was super bougie. People watching was spectacular lol. Service was great as well. Lots of good recs and right amount of attentiveness. The food was decent. It wasn't bad by any means but for the price you're paying I expect it to be better/more standout-ish. There are plenty of other Italian spots in the city with more flavorful dishes at a lower price point (but I would also be happy paying more for those dishes because they're tastier). But I will say the dessert torta Della nonna was fantastic and would definitely come back for that!! Drinks were upwards of $22 and again, regular cocktails with no special element. read more

Dined at Tre Dita for a second time and it was as lovely as my first time! Everything is made from scratch, comes out fresh and is flavorful. The hospitality and service was amazing as our server answered all our questions and had great recommendations. Our reso was at 5 when the sun was about to set and we ate dinner until nighttime. The ambiance was classy and exciting when light out but becomes warm and intimate at night. Is really one of my fav restaurants in Chicago! read more

One of my favorite spots in Chicago. Every pasta is top tier and the drinks were so good. Love the views and the service as well.

Gorgeous space with excellent service, food quality, & a great scotch menu. Must have is actually the pillowy sciacciatia bread. Steak surprisingly on par with local steakhouses. read more

Ambiance is great. Drinks are great. The service is atrocious. We had a 9pm reservation that we didn't get seated until 20 mins later. Then we ordered drinks that took another 30 mins. We ordered appetizers that were nothing special. Then ordered wine for dinner that took forever to get. The pasta we ordered was not great either. I'd say this is a great place to come if you are excited about the view and want to get expensive drinks but nothing else is worth the price. We were there for over 2 hours and were very disappointed. read more

Thanks to a recommendation I did Tre Dita Restaurant, it was even better than described! Everything just makes your taste buds leap for joy! Very upscale and top-tier vibe. Service was fabulous! read more

I dine out a lot and lazy to write reviews. unless super impressed by the place or super pissed off by a place. Tre Dita absolutely made my night every time i foot in there. was dine dining room menu 2 times and bar couple of times. This place impressed me big time. and makes me fall in love with italian food again. been there for my b day. The second walk into dining room I got impressed by the stunning set up. But when then the food and drinks show up. it took whole experience to another level. I am always on diet so never had carbs for years. somehow I ordered the pasta. first bite I fall in love with it. It is small size but perfection flavor. then surprise come one and another the prawn, veal, all the cocktails I can describe all of their dishes as fine... con, super hard to make reservation. the wine pour is on the small side. read more

I waited over 30 min for a salad and after waiting 1 hour for an order of pasta that never arrived (after being assured it was "the best"), I gave up and left. Staff really didn't seem care that that the food was delayed after I spoke up several times. It's a damned bowl of pasta, doesn't take a long time to make. Never coming back here. Cocktails were decent. read more

I'd give 3.5 stars. I rounded down due to the general apathy I experienced from staff. My wife and I were excited to come here when we found out Funke's newest restaurant was opening a few weeks before a planned Chicago trip. Having recently eaten at Motherwolf and Felix, we had high expectations going in. Unfortunately we weren't able to get a reservation for 2 in the main dining room even after logging in right at midnight to make a reservation. We settled for a table at the bar. The setting is beautiful above the St. Regis facing the Chicago River. I was bummed they kept the drapes over all windows -- why not open at 8pm to enjoy the beautiful city nightscape?!? Unlike Funke's other restaurants, Tre Dita's menu is more Tuscan than Roman, which I didn't think would matter to me as much as it did. Not having pizzas on the menu was a major disappointment. For me the standouts were the apps: focaccia and polpette are must haves! Overall food was good, but service was not what I've experienced at his other restaurants. I would like to see if this is improved sitting in the main dining room. However, I'm not inclined to rush back. read more

Food was superb, service impeccable, and the ambiance was unbelievable! I am understating our dining experience. Will be back soon! read more

I came to Tre Dita for my birthday dinner with my husband and from the moment we walked in the experience felt special. We were warmly greeted by the host who took our coats and made us feel really welcomed. The space is absolutely beautiful and so well designed. The only thing I was a little disappointed about was the pasta station. I was hoping to see someone making fresh pasta but there was no one there which kind of took away from the vibe. Besides that everything else made up for it. Our server Nina was so sweet and full of light. She gave amazing wine suggestions and really went out of her way to make the night feel special. When we sat down they offered us complimentary shots and even though my husband doesn't drink they brought him a non-alcoholic version so we could still toast together. That thoughtful gesture really stood out to me. The plain focaccia bread was really good. A bit salty but nothing too serious. The meatballs were incredible with the perfect texture and that crisp bread coating. My husband ordered the Pesce Spada Alla Ghiotta and really enjoyed it- I thought it was just ok. I had the NY Strip with potatoes and it was perfectly seasoned. The potatoes had a spicy kick that I loved. At one point I asked about a baby Guinness shot and Nina didn't know what it was but instead of brushing it off she looked it up with me and even found a bartender who knew how to make it. It came out perfect and I was so grateful for that extra effort. Overall I had such a great time and it was worth every dollar. I'd definitely come back. read more
