Our name, which means “little dream” in Italian, was chosen by partners Tony Priolo and Ciro Longobardo because it had always been their dream to open a restaurant of their own. “The restaurant fits our personal goal to get to the heart of Italian wine and food,” says executive chef Priolo. “You go to Italy for simple food prepared by hand with local ingredients. We wanted to bring that experience to Chicago.”

Piccolo Sogno features a menu of seasonally fresh rustic Italian cuisine. The impressive all-Italian wine list boasts over 400 selections to pair with your meal.

When the weather allows, enjoy al fresco dining in the hidden garden patio-regularly recognized as one of the best in the city.

Starting December 1, Monday-Thursday we'll open at 5 pm rather than 4 pm-just for the winter.

You are welcome to bring a cake to celebrate. If you do, we will charge a $3 fee per person cake-cutting fee.

Beginning January 1, all credit card transactions will be charged a 3% fee.

    We didn’t know we would be seated outside. You should add the option when making reservation there’s an outdoor seating and indoor seating options. In the corner of the restaurant there’s a draft.

    A wonderful Valentine’s Day experience! We loved the Pulpo, Funghi Al Forno, and the branzino. The Piccolo Sogno cocktail and the ricotta cake were also delicious. Highly recommended!

    We had a great dinner at piccolo sogno. The food was excellent (especially the gnocchi) and the ambience was lively but not loud— so you felt like you could have a conversation at your table. I also really enjoyed that they pre-split the salad and entrees for my partner and me to share. I would absolutely come again!
