This place, yes this one! Are you looking for great Italian food anywhere in Chicago? It’s this place! I am amazed! My wife and I stumbled upon this place and it’s sister restaurant across the street when we were looking for an odd recommendation of pizza pot pie, when we got turned away from the pizza pot pie place we decided to try this places sister restaurant across the street. I specifically said let’s see if we get lucky and oh my did we! The other restaurant is supposed to be the more upscale place but i have to respectfully disagree. We came back to try this place knowing it was the sister restaurant and we were absolutely blown away by the level of warmth and service by the staff, not to say the sister restaurant was bad by any means this was just so amazing. We came back to see which we would try again, we passed by the sister restaurant saw our server, he waved and smiled but here we walked by and they said “Are we doing this again tonight?”, it felt like a family member asking if you were hungry and wouldn’t let you leave even if you weren’t, phenomenal! We had such a great time, I’ll post pictures of the food and the wine but I really cannot imagine these fine people serving anything that is not up to par. Be sure to tell your server what you like and what you don’t, trust their recommendation and enjoy the best Italian and probably the best meal and service you’ve ever had. I’m so grateful Chef Riccardo hasn’t opened one in Houston where I am from because I would be enormous, and not have a dream of opening a real Italian restaurant there! Prove me wrong by naming a better place, until then I will remain haunted by this one and hope you will too!

While this was my 1st visit Riccardo’s Enoteca to celebrate a special occasion, it will not be my last!

Highly Recommend: the food, atmosphere, and service were all great! On weekend nights make sure to make a reservation as the place is not big and can fill up. From what I had I would definitely recommend gazpacho and bucatini carbonara. Fava beans as well as tiramisu were alright to try, nothing particularly special, about them, yet good.

Been there twice and that is the best Italian restaurant I’ve been to in Chicago! The food is delicious, I had some risotto once and some mozarella the other time and also tasted the carbonara pasta. The place is nice as well, and the workers are very professional and agreeable. Love this neighborhood-restaurant atmosphere!

We have been a regular customer since it opened. I cannot say enough in praise of the ambiance, food and service. I live in Lake Geneva Wisconsin much of the time. I keep trying to get them to open a sister restaurant there. To no avail. I recommend Enoteca without reservation, unless it becomes too difficult to get a table

First visit… won’t be the last. We had an exceptional experience. The food was excellent – all four of us ordered different entrees and everyone was happy (that lasagna…yummmm…no words!!!). And we received superior service from our gentleman server, who elevated the entire experience. What a special little neighborhood restaurant.

The fried mozzarella with arugula, tomatoes, and balsamic was delicious. We both enjoyed our pastas – the lasagna was very rich and hearty. Lots of meat sauce and cheese. The pesto pasta was a hit too!

While the food was AMAZING, my party and I couldn’t help but notice the different treatment between us (all people of color) and other guests. Our waiter was quite passive aggressive and even impatient with us at one point after a simple request. Afterwards, we observed how the waiter was much kinder to the other people in the restaurant, who happened to be predominately white. I hate to assume the worst about someone, but after reading someone else’s review detailing a similar experience, I unfortunately cannot recommend this place despite the good food. However, I will say that the host we briefly interacted with treated us kindly compared to the waiter, and I can say the same about the other host from the other Riccardo establishment across the street.
