“We had the opportunity to stop here last minute on a Wednesday night. The food was amazing and we felt like we were back in Italy. It was reasonably priced and we will definitely be back!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely delicious. The prosciutto-filled tortellini was flavorful and perfectly cooked, while the Parmesan cream sauce was rich, smooth, and incredibly comforting without being too heavy. Every bite tasted fresh, homemade, and packed with authentic Italian flavor. Simple, creamy, and executed perfectly. I would definitely order it again. 🍝🧀👌”

“Fulton Market Vibes: Carbs, Conversation, and Chianti 🍝 If you’re wandering through Fulton Market and the smell of slow-cooked ragu hits you like a beautiful brick wall, you’ve probably found the Chicago Italian Homemade Company. I swung by recently, and honestly? My belt is still mad at me, but my soul is soaring. The Spread We didn’t just eat; we conducted a full-scale culinary investigation. Here’s the breakdown: * Charcuterie Board: A masterpiece of cured meats. I’m convinced there’s no problem in life that a thin slice of prosciutto can’t solve. * Meat Lasagna: This thing was structural perfection. It had enough layers to qualify as a skyscraper. Hearty, rich, and tasted exactly like a nonna’s hug. * The Drinks: We kept it classic with some crisp Italian beers and a perfect glass of Chianti that paired with the pasta like they were soulmates. * The Grand Finale: Finished with a Tiramisu that was light as a cloud and an Espresso Martini that had enough kick to get me through a flight to Rome. The Vibe The real highlight was the owner. We spent a good chunk of the night chatting about how much the neighborhood has changed. It’s wild to think this area used to be all meatpacking warehouses, and now it’s the heartbeat of the city’s food scene. It’s rare to find a spot that feels this personal and "old school" in such a trendy district. The Verdict: 8/10. I’m already planning my return trip. If you see a guy in the corner trying to marry a bowl of pasta, that's me.”
“Tienen buen sabor sus alimentos, ahí hacen las pastas. Vale la pena visitarlo”
“i just had both types of lasagnes delivered and they are truly gross. the veggie one is the wateriest italian dish i've ever had and the meat one is slightly better than terrible. they were both delivered in paper containers that leaked completely though before even arriving, ruining the salad that was packed at the bottom for some reason. kind of crazy actually for $20 price point.”
