This restaurant has always been a family favorite, but the service lately has elevated it to an entirely new tier of quality! Our server tonight, Audrey, was incredibly sweet, attentive, and helpful. Both the pacing of our service and the quality of our food really impressed the whole family—even after decades of experience eating here. Huge thanks to Mia Francesca for the great meal, and to Audrey for going above and beyond! This truly is a special spot!

No notes. My experience was fantastic. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted and treated warmly by the staff. I spent my evening dining al fresco—sipping on perfectly balanced specialty cocktails, devouring delicious dishes, and savoring some sensational Chianti. Salute to the entire team at Mia Francesca!

“We went here for our office holiday party.”

We went here for our office holiday party. We were a group of 17 people. We had our own room. There was plenty of room, and the room was decorated festive. I spoke to the private party coordinator Katherine 2 months prior to the event. We picked out the menu and seating arrangements. It was a successful evening. The staff were great and the food was delicious. Also a member of our staff had an egg allergy and they were very accommodating. Jack was one of our servers and he was great. No one ever had a dry drink.

“Some of the best Italian food I’ve had in Chicago.”

Some of the best Italian food I’ve had in Chicago! I decided to go here for dinner on a Thursday, and it was a great experience. I had the vodka sauce pasta and was very pleased with it, not only was a single dish enough for an entire dinner (which is not the case for many restaurants), it also was very tasty, the pasta was perfectly cooked, the sausage was in small crumbles, the sauce was creamy and flavorful, and it was plated beautifully. While it was a bit expensive ($24) it was well worth it. Our waiter was very polite and explained everything. The atmosphere was very unique, and the restaurant was pretty, but the tv screens and music made it feel a bit sports-bar like, still cute.

Had dinner here on Sunday and everything was on point: Service, Vibe, and Food. Definitely give their patio a try...its a total sleeper and super cute. If they have any specials TRY THEM. We were fortunate enough to try the roasted squash. The Prosciutto appetizer was highly addictive. There also was a risotto special that excellent. Great selection of reasonable priced wines....will definitely be back!

Decided to try this spot while passing by and didn’t know it was this famous! We decided to try seafood linguine and four cheese mushroom pasta dish. We thought both pasta dishes could use more flavor but it was good nonetheless. Wiped clean our plates with bread and left no crumbs and sauce. The atmosphere is amazing, both cozy and fancy at the same time and the service was amazing. I’ll be back to try more entree dishes and drinks!

Known of this spot for a long time (such a Chicago classic), but finally had the pleasure of trying it out a couple weeks ago on a Friday night. The experience from top to bottom was great! We sat at the bar where the cocktails were well balanced and bright and the bartender created some beauties based on likes and dislikes we mentioned. For such a well established restaurant, it was especially cool to see them pushing with the food as well; the menu was clearly getting some new additions and updated twists on old classics. We had quite a few dishes (all great), but a few of our favorites were from the specials menu which changes quite often I believe. Some really beautiful stuffed squash blossoms were a favorite: crisp and delicate on the outside with a punch of creamy flavor inside. Another dish I keep thinking about was the sword fish with lentil risotto and a garlic purée. The seasoning and texture of everything was right on point; each lentil was perfectly intact, suspended in a rich earthy stock and highlighted by a bright creamy garlic purée and a meaty swordfish steak. We were too full for desert but we are looking forward to going back and trying them out!
