Simply incredible! The best food I have had in the Chicagoland area! The servers were hospitable and very charismatic. The food presentation was top-notch. And the atmosphere was amazing! I highly recommend making Passero one of your dining destinations.

We came here on Monday for dinner and I was surprised by how bustling the place was. Despite having a reservation, we still waited for 20 minutes for our table. The food was quite delightful. We ordered Brussels Sprouts, carbonara, and a pizza. Each dish had an interesting blend of flavors that tasted good. The outdoor patio offers a lovely view overlooking the downtown train station.

The service is excellent and the food is awesome. Pictured here are the arancini balls and Loretta’s salad with shrimp added on. Drinks are also amazing, with several delicious alcohol-free options.

Absolutely delicious, beautiful setting. Can get a little noisy but well worth it! Pictures are of the arancini, whipped ricotta, and tartufo pizza. Yes, we had carbs with cheese the whole night!

Had a nice dinner with friends. The server was nice but at times a bit pushy. The pasta and seafood was good. It had a very small piece of mahi mahi and only a few shrimp. I was a little disappointed in that however the sauce was amazing. Overall a great place looking forward to next time. @food_from_the_usa

I took my mom here for the first time for brunch this morning on Sunday, August 20 around 11:30 AM. The service was beyond atrocious. I had to go up to the hostess and ask who our waiter was, because after we were served water, no one came by for over 20 minutes. On top of that, my glass of water simply just broke out of nowhere without even touching it. Thank God I wasn’t drinking it or holding it in my hand. Otherwise, I could’ve seriously been injured. The staff could not have cared less. There was no apology or anything regarding this. The waiter told me that this happens all the time where their glasses just break??This was really bad. I’m very shocked because I used to come here all the time and it was so great but the service was terrible. I give it two stars for the food because the food is good, but the service is just too atrocious to come back. I’ve never been to a restaurant where a glass just breaks with water in it without touching it. Not a good first impression for my mom – I was embarrassed that this was my mom’s first time here because I was raving about how great it was but this was a terrible experience. They also charged a credit card processing fee even though we paid cash? We tried to find someone to ask about this but couldn’t flag anyone down, of course so we just ate the cost and left. I won’t be back.

Brunch was good. The whipped ricotta and Brussel sprouts were great. The margarita pizza was perfect with roasted wild mushroom. The chicken was ok, hence the 4 star.
