Die besten italienischen Restaurants in Winnetka

My server recommended a dish I thought exquisite. The service and the food was excellent. Great portion on the mussels. My server was polite and informative and helped to make a great Christmas Eve.

Great experience. The waitress was great. Food was good and can’t beat the value.

a nice relaxing early afternoon Christmas eve late lunch. Food was prepared impeccably. Well done by the chef.

Being in from Boston for a quick holiday trip, we were pleased this place was open on a Monday for lunch. Valet parking, quick & polite for under $10. Hostess quickly seated our party of 3 in a covered, sunken garden terrace type dining room . Comfy seating but the youngish crowd was pretty noisy. We are older but I didn’t feel over dressed in my black blazer. The room and the attractive crowd would have been a good setting for a Jeff Lewis or Housewives episode. I got an Amalfi Blue ($16) good, tasting, fizzy lunch cocktail that didn’t leave me pulverized. Casa Lena Burger($18) was delicious. My wife got the Ahi Tuna Sandwich ($24) Looked like big portions, and our guest had the Steak sandwich, also big & she brought half home in the restaurant’s distinctive take out bag. Panettone (it’s Christmas time) and Passion fruit sorbet. Perfectly prepared . The attentive service people were professional and striking looking.

I just love this restaurant. Love it a little bit more when I can eat outside as the noise level is very high. A little tough to carry on a conversation. Other than that, though, perfect place. Always good food and always good service.
