In 1943, on the corner of Ohio and Wabash in downtown Chicago, Uno Founders, Ike Sewell and Ric Riccardo, created the original and legendary Chicago Style Deep Dish Pizza. They combined authentic Italian recipes with the finest meats, spices, vegetables and cheeses and baked them in a unique and delicious deep dish crust, creating a hearty pizza like no other. Today, Uno’s Deep Dish Pizza is still made as it was then, with dough made fresh daily, hand stretched and covered with meats, hand-cut vegetables and freshly shredded mozzarella cheese. We put that same attention to detail in all our menu items, including pasta, salads, burgers, steaks and seafood and our new Love All, Feed All™ menu – which includes our 600-calorie-or-less Uno De-Lites, as well as our Gluten-Sensitive, Carb-Conscious, Vegetarian and Vegan offerings. So come by and let us help you create memories with your family and friends at Uno.

    Very lovely tea service but a bit pricy for what you get. I wish they would make the teas from loose leaf and more finger sandwiches.

    We tried this restaurant last night and had the best time. The food was amazing, but what was really amazing was our server Rene and the staff. The staff was so on top of it, and the food came out so fast. It was our friend's birthday, and we were trying to surprise her. We had ordered a cake but needed to figure out a way to get it there without her noticing. When my other friend called the restaurant, they were able to hold the cake for us in the morning and then bring it to the table as a surprise. Rene was already informed by staff, so when we arrived, he was already in on the plan. At the end of dinner, the cake was brought out, and it was such a nice surprise. Special thanks to Rene and the staff at Quartino—you are all amazing.

    We appreciate an authentic Italian ambience and fantastic service. Rosebud consistently wins with great food and drinks! We have enjoyed rosebud in both large group settings and intimate meals for 2. The patio, downstairs and upstairs dining rooms each offer different dining experience which the staff has tailored well based on our group sizes. Highly recommend for a date and night out with close friends.

    Great casual spot that always delivers. This time around we ordered the burger and ahi tuna bowl, both delicious! Service is always attentive and friendly. We asked to sit on the patio where it was a little easier to talk becasue there was a live preformer being broadcast throught the restaurant. It was warm and cozy-you would never know it was 30 degrees outside.
