InterContinental ChicagoSeptember 7, 2011Regional Italian, Bolognese-focused cuisine served in a Historic Townhouse. All pastas are made fresh daily and Chef Silvia often has a good selection of specials to go with the daily menu.
L KJanuary 25, 2018Some of the best, most authentic Italian (Bolognese region) in the city. Expensive, but delicious.
Lulu AAugust 15, 2014Equities dinner, outstanding tenderloin with aged balsamic, quiche, Panna cotta, atmosphere. Grazie
Gilt CityJanuary 17, 2012Chef/owner Luisa Silvia focuses on recipes native to the region Emilia Romagna, using ingredients like aged balsamic vinegar from Modena and black truffle from Umbria.
Leland BrewsterNovember 6, 2015A truly exceptional Italian restaurant. Trust the staff on specials; we've never been disappointed.
GrayJune 10, 2012Service is great. Make a reservation. Sorta expensive. Anything with truffle is awesome.
Tobi BSeptember 2, 2012Eggplant appetizer was yummy. Pasta with mushrooms a bit rich. Service was terrible!
Get the veal pasta with quail's egg and truffle oil. To die for.
Dan GurskaOctober 9, 2011This place is not good. My favorite menu item is the San Pellegrino. Run away...and never come back.
