“Great food and must go and a great addition to the neighborhood Definitely ask about the Gnocchi was perfectly delicious”
“I came in with two friends for dinner this evening and the entire experience was amazing from start to finish. We came to celebrate my birthday and had experienced traffic due to a concert at Wrigley field and I felt so bad to come in an hour before they closed but they welcomed us so kindly. The food was fantastic and the service was amazing. We were happily surprised that patio seating was available and enjoyed our time outside on a beautiful evening with ample space to enjoy our meal without being crowded by other patrons or staff. We shared the burrata and calamari appetizers as well as the beet salad and lobster ravioli special. It was all delicious. At the end of the evening our server brought over a wonderful banana flan for dessert. I had the best time and cannot recommend this place enough.”
“We had an absolutely wonderful dining experience at Piacere Mio Uptown! If you are looking for authentic Italian flavors made with high-quality ingredients at incredibly reasonable prices, this is the place to go. Every dish was beautifully prepared and full of flavor. What truly elevated our evening, though, was the service. Our waiter, Leonardo De Larosa, was phenomenal. He was attentive, warm, and highly professional, making us feel completely welcome from the moment we sat down. His excellent recommendations and genuine hospitality made a great meal truly memorable. Fantastic food, great atmosphere, fair prices, and top-tier service. We will definitely be back! Highly recommended.”

“This place is hot right out the gate. An easy to converse ambiance. A hot wine hot list and a solid menu. Impeccable service and food that makes you want to come back every day. Pictures are Cacio Pepe and the seared tuna. If you are in doubt, knock it off, get your butt here.”
