Piccolo Sogno — reliable italian in Fulton Market that keeps people coming back. No shortcuts. You can taste the intention. Service that's warm without being over the top. "The vodka cream is not on the menu, but asked for it, and they made us one of the best" — Nina Gorges

“We’re already looking forward to coming back because the food and the overall experience were simply fantastic”
We booked our NYE dinner here 2 months in advance to have a nice night with our family.
Food was great and the drinks were good as well. However, the service was slower than expected.

“We visited this restaurant during a quiet time, and it was the perfect choice.”
We visited this restaurant during a quiet time, and it was the perfect choice. The place was spotless, cozy, and had such a pleasant atmosphere that we could truly relax without any distractions. The service was excellent—the staff was attentive and welcoming throughout our meal. As for the food, the ravioli I ordered were hands down the most delicious ravioli I’ve ever had in my life! We also tried the lasagna, which was equally tasty. We finished with dessert, and it didn't disappoint either—everything was flavorful and well-prepared. It’s definitely not the cheapest place, but it’s worth every penny. We’re already looking forward to coming back because the food and the overall experience were simply fantastic. Highly recommended!

“This amazing Italian restaurant is a MUST.”
This amazing Italian restaurant is a MUST! The service and food were top notch! I will definitely be going back! I highly recommend this Italian restaurant! Went there with my friend/family on a Monday afternoon. They have valet parking too. The food was GREAT! We had the Burrata (Hand-stuffed, Pugliese mozzarella, Italian mortadella, pistachios, aged balsamic marinated roasted grapes), Prosciutto Di Parma (Nineteen month aged Prosciutto di Parma with sliced melon), and Frittura (fried shrimp and calamari). I had the Lasagna Tipica Di Bologna, which is a traditional lasagna with a meat sauce with green pasta sheets, layered with bechamel. I also tried their mushroom risotto and the oxtail stew on a bed of grits! All were AMAZING! For desert I had a chocolate lava cake with a hazelnut sorbet…FANTASTIC!

“Out of all the Italian restaurants in the Chicagoland area, we decided to chose piccolo sogno for...”
Out of all the Italian restaurants in the Chicagoland area, we decided to chose piccolo sogno for our 5 year anniversary dinner. So happy that we did! Drove down and found parking right away. They also have valet. We were greeted very kindly at the door and were seated even though we were early for our reservation. Ambiance in the restaurant is very chic and nicely set up. Waiter came straight to the table as soon as we sat and introduced himself. We decided no drinks for the night and went straight to the specials. They sounded so good that we ordered 3 things of the specials menu. Started with the pizza with spicy salami and basil. It was so fresh and light. I could have ate another one! Dough was very airy and thin and the sauce was super flavorful. I ordered the lamb shank and my wife went with the truffle ravioli. The lamb shank was pipping hot and fell right off then bone. No need for a knife! Meat was so tender and juicy. So happy I went with that. My wife's ravioli was delicious! One of the best pasta dishes she's had out. Very fresh ravioli with ricotta and truffles. Taste was just amazing. The only downfall was that the bread was not fresh but the oil and balsamic vinegar at the table made up for it. Overall great experience. 100% recommend!

“My second time at PS.”
My second time at PS. The restaurant is so pretty, especially their outdoor patio. I felt like I was sitting in beautiful Italy. The staff is so friendly, and kind. Didn't wait long for our food. For food, we tried the Blanco pizza which was amazing, and so tasty. The fried shrimp, and calamari was really yummy, with a great dipping sauce. The vodka cream is not on the menu, but asked for it, and they made us one of the best. Look forward to coming back when in the area. Cirro the owner is also very sweet, and probably.

“We can here for team lunch.”
We can here for team lunch. We walked here. There was paid valet parking. Not sure about other parking. This place is big. They have outdoor sitting area. We ordered some appetizers and they were great. I ordered a chicken and it was good too. The only thing was I had to ask for drink refills. Overall it was good place.

“Great Italian food with a beautiful garden out back and tons of seating.”
Great Italian food with a beautiful garden out back and tons of seating. Food was amazing, well portions, and while expensive; it was more then good enough to justify the price. Wine and drink selections were good and they do also offer free bread with dipping oil with your meal.

We enjoyed a nice evening on the patio at Piccolo Sogno. Food and drinks were delicious. The service was a bit slow, but in fairness, they were slammed with guests.

“Just had an incredible dinner at Piccolo and our experience was made even better by our amazing waiter, Alex.”
Just had an incredible dinner at Piccolo and our experience was made even better by our amazing waiter, Alex. From start to finish, he went above and beyond—constantly refilling our waters without us even noticing, offering spot-on recommendations, and splitting our starters perfectly without us asking. He even surprised us with complimentary ice cream at the end, which was such a thoughtful touch. His energy, attention to detail, and genuine kindness added so much warmth to the night. Alex has the kind of presence and service that elevates the entire dining experience—he deserves to be front and center where guests can truly appreciate the full Piccolo experience.

“It had been a while since we dined at Piccolo Songo, and did not remember how much we loved it.”
It had been a while since we dined at Piccolo Songo, and did not remember how much we loved it. Last night we the most an amazing dinner on the terrace. Everything was delicious. I loved the gazpacho and the gnocchi and my husband enjoyed the peach salad and the salmon. And although the terrace was packed, It felt like we were dining in an oasis — a serene garden. We will be back soon!
