Oak Lawn​のベスト地中海料理レストラン

Joe Flamm did it again. His restaurants feel like the perfect place to gather with friends while not feeling like a stuffy table cloth places where you can’t relax. Service is mindful but not over bearing. We ordered 10 plates and didn’t have one I didn’t like - the gelato to end the meal is a must

EXCEPTIONAL. Wonderful server that was so kind and attentive. Food was coursed out flawlessly and everything was flavorful and exceeded all my expectations. This place is a five minute drive away from me, and I cannot believe it took me so long to get in and have a meal. Already eagerly awaiting my next visit to Elina’s.

The food is excellent. We were with another couple and ordered the cauliflower, zucchini pancakes, baked clams, tortellachi, brandzino and duck. Everything was delicious. Our server was very attentive & brought two samples of wine to taste. It was an extremely cold night & the tables near the door are drafty. Avoid if possible. Also no valet parking so plan to look for parking in the neighborhood.

I was so happy we were able to get in last minute. We looked at reservations for tonight around 11 am, the only thing available was 9:15. Maybe 45 minutes later a 6:45 pops up and we were able to snag it. We had the short rib humus, whipped feta, hamachi, pork belly, steak & frites, fried halloumi and two kabobs. Perfect for all 4 of us hungry eaters. 100% will be back- if you can get in I highly recommend trying anything and everything on the menu. Service was impeccable. Food was courses perfectly and everything came out hot right out of the oven. If you have been to Bavel in LA you will love this “sister” in Chicago

Always great! Christmas Day Dinner is usually stressful and expensive at a restaurant. It was perfect at Francesca’s last night. They did a great job allowing off the menu selections, friendly service and a beautiful atmosphere. But, pls for the love of Italian food, bring back the old Ceasar Salad. The new recipe is not good. The old one was perfection!!!
