Mia Francesca features the zesty, earthy cuisine of Rome and the surrounding areas of Tuscany, Umbria, and Lazio. It was one of the first restaurants in Chicago to encourage the lively art of dining with a contemporary, casually sophisticated trattoria ambiance, simple, rustic cooking, friendly service, and fair prices.Waiting for a table at the beautiful antique bar is part of the charm of Mia Francesca. The plush upstairs dining room and lounge can be reserved for private events, as can the more intimate coach house tucked away behind the restaurant. In the summer, al fresco dining is also available on a charming cobblestone terrace.

Everything was full-flavored without being too spicy. Creative and beautiful plating, and all the flavors worked really well together. Generous portions and thoughtful service! If we didn't live a few hours away we'd be back weekly! Easy to find free parking nearby.

We had a great experience at Akahoshi Ramen. Casper was wonderful and attentive! We sat at the counter and enjoyed sipping on our delicious cocktails as we watched the ramen being made! My husband enjoyed the midwestern ramen and I had the Akahoshi. It was SO delicious that my husband had a second round of ramen. HIGHLY recommend and cannot wait to visit here again. Until then, I’ll be dreaming about it.

We lived in Italy for 5 years and lived the Neapolitan style pizza in Milano and Modena. Forno Rosso is #1 in Chicagoland and absolutely the best authentic Neapolitan style pizza we have had since moving back to the States 10 years ago.

Amazing food, service and look of the place. Music was perfect once it was changed to Sinatra. I love Christmas music but it’s a bit early for it. Overall experience 10/10.

Excellent Czech/Boehmian food in a city that used to have so much of it and now has very little. It doesn’t look like much, but that doesn’t matter. Show up, take a risk, have a great meal you literally can’t have anywhere else in Chicago anymore. Spring for the herbal aperitif shot on tap and the Karlovarsky dumplings. Dont ask, just do it.
