Petterinos — food in Loop worth a stop for the Calamari. Expect noise, energy, and a full house. The bartender knows what they're doing, and quick and efficient. Dr Enya Kalia: "The flavors were rich and perfectly balanced, and you could really tell it was made with care"

“Petterino’s understood the assignment.”
Petterino’s understood the assignment. The service was so good it felt like the staff had a sixth sense for empty glasses and indecisive menu staring 👀🍝 Friendly, attentive, and perfectly timed without hovering, which is a rare art. The whole experience felt smooth and effortless, like an Italian dinner montage in a movie where everything just works. If great service were a sport, this team would be going home with a trophy. Came hungry, left happy, and absolutely would return. Bravo. 🍷👏

“The food was excellent.”
The food was excellent! Service was friendly, but just a bit slow. We had to look for our server a couple of times, but that won't stop us from ever going back! Food and atmosphere are great! Thanks!!

“The best bar in downtown Chicago.”
The best bar in downtown Chicago! Stop by for a drink, a snack or get the happy hour deal- the atmosphere and the quality is amazing, my favorite place to be! Especially because of Jesse and his team, they mix the best drinks, just let them know your taste and the right drink will be served. Can’t wait to enjoy my next evening there! Thank you Jesse and the whole team for making every evening special!!

Pizza was great! This place is a must stop if you’re in the area! They have lots of homemade Italian dishes. The only thing I would say to the chefs is to keep the pizza in the oven longer the get more of a crisp on the bottom. The pizza was pretty floppy but that’s ok! It tasted great.

“I recently celebrated a good friend’s birthday at this restaurant.”
I recently celebrated a good friend’s birthday at this restaurant. I really enjoyed my time here! The food was delicious and the service was spectacular. Our entrees were served to us so quickly. Everyone was so attentive. You guys have very kind staff! Thank you for all the pictures you took for us. The food portions were generous. You won’t go home hungry after dining here. Both dishes were 10/10’s. You guys know what you’re doing in the kitchen. Kisses to the chef.

On a busy Friday night when we couldn’t get into anywhere until 9:00, this place popped up and gave us a reservation at 6:45! Really excellent homemade pasta, like this 4-cheese ravioli in sundried tomato cream sauce. The add-on salmon was oh-so-perfectly grilled. Plus excellent and quick service and nostalgic decor.

“Loved my experience there.”
Loved my experience there. Food was delicious. They make their own pasta, meatballs, and sausages. Service was fast and the waitstaff was very kind. They have caricatures all along the walls of famous people. Some of them were signed. It is a very chill atmosphere. You can dress up or dress down if you want. Highly recommend if you're in the area to try them out.

Hands down, the best pasta I’ve had all summer! The flavors were rich and perfectly balanced, and you could really tell it was made with care. On top of that, the staff was so sweet and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better!

“This was a wonderful date night spot, the service was amazing and the food was good.”
This was a wonderful date night spot, the service was amazing and the food was good. We went here before a show at the Goodman Theater so it was very convenient! We had the fried ravioli, an Italian beef, and the caprese sandwich. All the food was good and the drinks were nice. The part that stood out was the service, from the bar to the table service.

“I had a wonderful experience at this restaurant.”
I had a wonderful experience at this restaurant. The staff were incredibly friendly and provided excellent service throughout our visit. It's advisable to make a reservation, but we were pleasantly surprised when they accommodated us without one. The wood-fired pizza was outstanding—thin and crispy with fresh mozzarella that truly elevated the flavors. Highly recommend!
