100% of a hidden gem just waiting for you to discover. A small business who has been here since 1975 and serves an array of excellent Italian dishes. The inside is definitely a wonderful step back into time decor. This was a great dinner and cannot wait to come back for something different. Thanks Lawrence you made the dinner entertaining.

Tiny old school Vegas institution. Service was quick and friendly. Excellent bread , solid red sauce and generous portions of seafood. Could have used a bit more seasoning. Mussels and shrimp were cooked perfectly. We will be back to check out the classic dishes next time.

This tiny little Italian restaurant is unique in many ways, both good and bad, but undeniably has some charm. Chicago Joe’s serves good, not greats Italian cuisine. Service was very good and attentive, not snobby and uptight, very down to earth. Located in an old house, this place definitely has its wear and tear. Struggling for words, I would say this is a dive bar of Italian restaurants. But as we all know dive bars aren’t necessarily bad. I mean who doesn’t love a dive bar? The reason I say this is because the place is old and has its fair share of wear and tear. To get to the bathrooms you get a peek into the kitchen and the dishwashing area. My wife got the lasagna I got the pasta Angelo. Both dishes were very very good actually my wife loved the lasagna! Served with warm loaves of bread and yes you can get a second. Entrees come with salads with homemade dressing either Italian or creamy garlic. I would give this place a recommendation and if in the area with a hankering for Italian I would return.

This was the best meal I have had in Vegas after living in the valley for almost two years. The place is small and intimate, the staff is friendly and personable, and the food is wonder. We ordered the baked clams, baked tortellini (photo attached), and a special of crab raviolis and jumbo shrimp (photo attached). This is going to be a new favorite of ours but we will probably pass on the appetizer next time since the portions are big.

Neat find in downtown Las Vegas ,the restaurant is in a house like setting we made a reservation and right on time. Walking in we were greeted right away and seated towards the back. So part to why my rate was a little low was first we made the reservation for 4 adults and one child well we were first only given 4 chairs and when I asked for a high chair they don’t have any ,there was also no kid options or kid size servings on the menu and no changing areas in the restroom if you have an infant so not really a kid friendly place . We were able to steal a chair from a table of two that didn’t need it , we ordered and the food was delicious ,if you get a chance to go make sure to try the tiramisu its great. Now the other reason I had to put a low rate is its July in vegas triple digit weather and not sure if there ac is not working or its just needs to be better but it was way to hot in there the food is good but if your going in the summer you’ll be sweating . Overall good food and friendly waiter but definitely needs some work on making guests a little more comfortable.

To start our server was Darren. Quick, amazing service from him. Always on top of drinks, on top of the bread. Offered phenomenal suggestions. The location is in the heart of Downtown Las Vegas, off of 4th Street. A once upon a house, converted into one of the best (if not the best) restaurants I’ve ever eaten at here in Vegas (like better than Hells Kitchen). I was with a party of 3. One got the Fettuccine Alfredo, me along with another patron got the Seafood Joe (scallops, shrimp, lobster, mushrooms, in a garlic butter sauce served on a bed of linguine). All of the entrees were OUT OF THIS WORLD. The pasta is freshly made, the seafood was phenomenal. The Alfredo is made by scratch and you can taste it too. To start they bring you out bread, the bread was fresh, warm, tasty, no butter required! (But it is offered). We also got 2lbs of the baked mussels in spicy marinara. The mussels were large, there was pasta in the dish, and the marinara was phenomenal to dip the bread in. The pricing on dishes are also great! I have nothing but amazing things to say about Chicago Joe’s, if you’re a local or a tourist you MUST try this place out. Please make sure you have a reservation as well as making it well in advance!

Came to the restaurant due to the good comments. The overall atmosphere is fantastic. Has everything right including lights, decorations, and other costumers. I expected nothing less from the food, but not the case at all.

Classic old school Las Vegas Italian. This place had been a staple eatery for over 50 years. A converted house in the downtown area. Do yourself a favor and make reservations. The service is always great and so is the food. Wine and beer only. Thank you Chicago Joe’s. Until next time.

After hearing all of the hype around Chicago Joe’s my wife and I had to try it out. We had some simple dishes that you would expect to not be disappointed in. Well this assumption was wrong. I had the lasagna and my wife had penne in marinara sauce. The penne was over done and the sauce tasted old. The lasagna was Luke warm in the middle and the dish it was in was so hot it could not be touched. It was not bad but resembled a Stouffer’s Lasagna. Our waiter was okay but never came and refilled our drinks. I do not recommend Chicago Joe’s.
