Western Springs​のベストピッツェリア

Love the pizza at Piccolo Buco! The crust is fluffy and chewy, with a tad bit of crunch. Tip: they don’t have ranch for pizza since it’s an Italian Restaraunt, but we get a side of the creamy Italian dressing and the fluffy crust tastes amazing when dunked. We love that this place also accepts our Wine Club membership to Cooper’s Hawk so we can always get a bottle of wine for the table.

Tyler was great. Very attentive to our needs. Food was excellent as always. Price was fair for the value. The manager that night was very accommodating to letting us choose where we sit.

As fans of Rose Mary we were eager to try El Carciofi and willing to take a 4:45 reservation. This is as fun and as delicious as Rose Mary and shares the same approach to dining—shareable small plates. Interesting craft cocktails, sufficient wines by the glass, exceptionally well trained wait staff and very flavorful food. Gus menu was all Rome inspired so it was a little less diverse than Rose Mary. The artichokes were spectacular crisply Rome style. Every inch was edible. Two to an order but they bring you a serrated knife if you want to have them. We had one other appetizer (calamari), one pasta and one seafood main. The portions are great for two to share but if three or four order another something or two and expect to get just a couple bites not full servings. They have $8 servings of gelato and sorbet and a couple amazing deserts they offered to checkout coats.a nice touch in Chicago’s winter. It’s easy to spend $100 per person if you gave two drinks each and desert. We found street parking but forgot to feed the meter since the sign wasn’t obvious so double check

Although we had to wait awhile, Sarah our server was fantastic and so was our food!

Great food. I had the brisket sandwich.was fantastic. My wife had buffalo shrimp and she loved it. We both had wedge salads that were very good. Our server was very good, attentive and courteous. We will go back.
