    I used to live in Chicago 30 years ago and this was one of my favorite places. Pleasant surprise to find it’s still alive and serving great paella and sangria. Went to Jaleo a year ago and surprised it has closed. Guess Chef Jose Andreas has too much on his plate.

    We visited Saranello’s with a plan of having our rehearsal dinner at their restaurant and getting a feel for the place. Not only was Mary (the Events manager) a delight, she answered all of our questions and gave us pointers for the event. Our dinner afterwards at the restaurant was DELICIOUS, and our server Joann was a firecracker in the best way. Not only does the restaurant have great food and a welcoming atmosphere, you really get the sense that the team likes one another and have a nice time while still making the customers feel like VIPs. 10/10 would recommend for dinner and or your private event needs, these guys are pros. :)
