    We are regulars at Siena Tavern on Sunday afternoons and the food and wait staff service are the prime reasons we return. The gnocchi and cacio pepe are excellent as are the pizzas and brunch. The one spot where Siena Tavern could improve is at the host stand. On Sunday afternoons, no host is ever present -- and we have waited for up to 15 minutes for someone to greet us. The wait staff is properly focused on their tables so they don't have time to greet and seat. And there's not a manager anywhere within sight. If this happened just once, I'd guess the host needed a bathroom break, but it happens every Sunday afternoon. So, this is an opportunity for Siena to improve -- and we are hopeful that they do.

    We enjoyed a delicious brunch with expert service by Theodora! We loved the octopus appetizer, Brussel sprout salad and rigatoni ala vodka. The mimosas were delicious. We will return next time we come to Chicago.

    Very good drinks and Apps. Good service, nice environment and good value. Unfortunately, quite disappointed in the pasta. Under cooked, stiff, cold. :-(

    Siena Tavern was AMAZING! Our drinks were delicious, I especially loved the espresso martini. My husband loved the squid ink pasta. he said the grilled lobster was fabulous. The mushroom pizza and the margharita pizza were delicious. The burrata appetizer was my favorite, the tomato sauce that came with it was out of this world. So happy we came here for our anniversary!

    Tried this restaurant and we were not wowed by their food. Ordered the tuna appetizer and it was the size of 2 fingers for $18. Not even that good and nothing like other similar tuna appetizers. Don’t bother ordering it. It’s a waste of money. The lasagna was good. The chicken Milanese dish was dark meat. It had flavor, but disappointed that it was not a chicken breast. People next to us didn’t like their gnocchi dish and sent it back. Won’t go back. This is mainly a pizza and drink place.
