Food was great! I'm not a big beef eater, I usually don't eat double burgers, but this one right here was delicious!!! The meat was cooked to perfection, juicy, moist, bun was soft, flavor was fresh really good, perfectly seasoned, the veggies were fresh. And the manager was a delight! Very positive friendly attitude.

“Labriola was such a win.”

Labriola was such a win. Highly recommend their salads, they were honestly our favorite part of the meal. We also ordered a thin crust pizza and loved it. Deep dish takes over an hour, so we skipped it this time, but the cookie skillet? An absolute must!!!

“Took my wife out to eat after having watched Phantom of the Opera at the Cadillac Palace Theatre.”

Took my wife out to eat after having watched Phantom of the Opera at the Cadillac Palace Theatre. We were in good spirits and hungry. We landed at Labriola during Happy Hour specials 3-6pm so took advantage of that while also ordering and enjoying the food we had intended on ordering regardless. We grabbed a 12" margharita pizza and a bottle of wine from the happy hour menu plus a goat cheese shareable plus I ordered the tagliatelle Bolagnese while the wife got the chicken parm. Everything was excellent, the staff was super attentive and they heard my wife say it was her birthday. Before I knew it they brought us desert but made it special with a flaming firework on top. I have a long history with Labriola bakery products long before the sale of the bakery and opening of the restaurant Our first experience at the restaurant was excellent and only ensures it wont be our last. We have many shows we will see this year and this may be our go to after each show. I was not aware that Labriola was also behind Stans Donuts which our daughter works at the Schererville location.

“The atmosphere and decor of the restaurant was very nice.”

The atmosphere and decor of the restaurant was very nice. It is well located, right off magnificent mile. The chicago style pizza was amazing, filled with tons of cheese and ingredients. Our server told us each pizza can feed 5 to 6 people and he was right! We ordered the arugula salad which was crisp, refreshing and delicious, salad dressing was evenly distributed. The calamari was crunchy on the outside and tender inside. Also very good. Servie was very slow and spotty. I think it was because we wnet during peak holiday season(?). Because we were party of 6 the service at 20% was already included which we noticed ourselves so be careful not to double tip. I went for happy hour too and that was also nice, but the calamari serving during happy hour is half serving as indicated in their menu.

“Came here twice on our trip.”

Came here twice on our trip! We dined in one night and did take out the other. The pizza is the best I’ve had! Who knew Chicago style would be so good! Definitely recommend the pizza with pepperoni and sausage!

“Was visiting Chicago and was fortunate to discover Labriola.”

Was visiting Chicago and was fortunate to discover Labriola. On our visit it was a busy Sunday night, but we were lucky enough to get an outside table with no wait. We started with the Toasted Ravoili appetizers which was an exciting combination of braised beef, cherry tomatoes and calabrina chili and I must say it was a delightful surprise. For our entrees we enjoyed Chicken Parmesan which was served with two generous portions of chicken breasts, spaghetti with freshly made marinara and topped with mozzarella. Having had this dish at several old school Italian restaurants I can say this was the best Chicken Parmesan I have had at any establishment. We also dined on the Spaghetti and Mama's Meatballs entree. This is a simple dish that I have enjoyed across the country. Their traditional take on this dish was authenticity wonderful with pasta, marinara and perfectly seasoned meatballs.

“I’ve been looking forward to trying Labriola’s pizza ever since I saw a sign it was the best in Chicago.”

I’ve been looking forward to trying Labriola’s pizza ever since I saw a sign it was the best in Chicago. We called at 6:15pm for 7:15pm first available reservation, but was also told if we arrived soon there may be a high top table, no reservation needed. We ended up getting a table pretty quickly, before our reservation time, when I just asked for the first available. Thank you to the efficient host for seating us! We started out with the Zucchini Fritte and it was so good, highly recommended! When the pizza came out, our server Rogelio showed us how to cut it to get all the delicious cheese on our slices 🍕he is a great server which added to our nice date night dining experience ❤️ I came with my boyfriend from Arizona and asked him of the three pizza’s we’ve had, what was his favorite and he said Labriola❣️

Oh man! The deep dish pizza was so good, I broke all my "don't eat leftovers" rules and finished it off the next day. We also had mozzarella sticks as an appetizer. A unique spin on the dish and they were likely the best I've ever had. Atmosphere is a great vibe. I would love to come back here in the warmer months and eat outside. Can't wait to visit here again!

“I am so surprised how good this place is.”

I am so surprised how good this place is. The pizza was fantastic and it was one of the best Cesar’s salads I’ve ever had w a nice piece of perfectly cooked grilled salmon. Really worth it

“It was really crowded but the service kept being on top of things.”

It was really crowded but the service kept being on top of things. We ordered a deep dish pepperoni pizza, Fetuccine with chicken, and a bottle of wine, and it was all delicious and the ambiance enjoyable. Came back home and immediately recommended the place for the holidays which they're already promoting

“I can see why this restaurant was so highly recommended by locals when we were visiting.”

I can see why this restaurant was so highly recommended by locals when we were visiting. I'll start by saying that Chicago deep dish isn't generally my thing... That said, their deep dish was really good. It has a nice chewy edge, it's not super heavy, and the ingredients are clearly top notch... The Burrata and Basil was one of the best takes on Margherita Pizza I've ever had. Now, this may be blasphemy, but the true star here is the tavern style thin crust. The crisp, cornmeal dusted crust is PERFECT and again, the ingredients shine. This is 100% a must go if you're looking for great pizza in Chicago!

“Skinny Deep Dish “Danny’s Special”.”

Skinny Deep Dish “Danny’s Special”. This is easily the best pizza. All ingredients are fresh. Sauce is made in house, mushrooms and peppers freshly sliced. Sausage was very good. Staff was busy but attentive. Our server was Ramon and made sure everything was the best.
