Wonderful service!!! Seriously top notch. The waitress was slammed and the manager came over and took care of us to help out her team. You can tell they really operate as a unit. Our waitress was also so nice. We loved the chicken parm and carrot cake. We cut our time
So close to catch a Broadway show and they made it happen and said “oh we will get you out of here on time to catch your show, don’t worry!” So sweet ! Would highly recommend

Had dinner before seeing Hamilton nearby. The staff is so nice and I love the ambiance. In the heart of the Chicago Broadway district. Definitely try it out before seeing a show.
10/10 must try truffle burrata. Also really liked the calamari starter. Brussel sprouts were a nice side too! I had the beef Ragu noodles, it was nice. Very big portion and quite meaty / rich so I couldn’t finish the whole thing. Nice atmosphere which had a little Italian feel to it.
Wonderful fantastic Italian food in the heart of Chicago theater district. Petterino's is a classic Italian restaurant serving handmade high quality foods and drinks. We loved everything that we had including the roasted brussel sprouts, handmade pappardelle pasta with Lamb and mint in the sauce, and the crostini with prosciutto, burrata cheese and salad.
Near faultless food, certainly for the price it would be hard to argue with either the burrata (highly recommended), the house salad (tastefully dressed), or the spinach-mint pappardelle in lamb bolognese (equally highly recommended). All were memorable. The mushroom pizza was tasty and toppings generously portioned, but did not excel to the same degree being let down by the cheese (noting though pizza is a divisive and subjective topic at the best of times). Huge respect to back of house for smooth execution, your team is clearly a symphony.
Unfortunately on our visit front of house let us down. There were periods with no service affecting multiple tables and the night was not busy.
Overall a great experience, excellent value and a memorable meal. An apparent Chicago icon - for good reason.

We drove into Chicago from Michigan on the Friday before Labor Day. After we parked the car, it was already after 8:00pm, so we found this place on google and since the reviews were good, decided to walk here and have dinner. It was 8:30pm when we walked in and there was no wait, in fact the place was fairly empty. The staff at the door were friendly and seated us quickly. My wife and I both ordered the Mafalde which is a pasta with Short rib sauce and my Dad ordered the Salmon Pesto. All of us really enjoyed our food, it was good. My 82 year old Dad is very particular regarding how much salt is in his food and he usually sticks to grilled fish. He said his Salmon was perfect for him and not too salty. We had a couple beers as well. The lady serving us was helpful when we asked about menu items and she had a very pleasant attitude.
The atmosphere of this restaurant is cozy/casual and we liked it. We would definitely stop in here again to try something else on the menu.

Classic Italian restaurant well located next to the Goodman theatre. Beautiful decor with some great sketches of famous actors on the walls. Service was good and the outside seating was a great place to people watch.
The risotto was very tasty but the mushroom Alfredo was a bit too one dimensional and lacked a variety of flavours and textures.

Pleasantly surprised that we were able to be seated earlier than our reservation, even though it was a busy Friday night.
The waiter was thoughtful by asking if we had time constraints for a show.
The bread was just ok and the cold butter was hard to spread.
But the pasta was amazing. It’s made fresh each morning and super flavorful. We enjoyed the vodka rigatoni with Italian sausage and mushrooms. And the squid ink seafood pasta.
Excellent and fast service. Highly recommend.
