    I had a wonderful time at Quartino. The food came at lightning speed and the service was excellent. We loved loved the Tuscan kale salad, you must try at all costs. The penne vodka chicken and veal meatball app were delicious but I found the fettuccini Alfredo to be very eggy and unpleasant. Our server Christopher was friendly and quick! The zeppole were cooked in old oil and were immediately noticed by all of us at the table. Their nojitos are yummy, I recommend the passion fruit. I will come back especially with these awesome prices!

    I've had dinner and lunch here with family and friends multiple times and every time the service, quality of the food and ingredients, and ambience are consistently excellent. The staff is always pleasant and my group and I are always able to be seated right away. Beautiful setting anytime of the year, and it helps that it's sooo close to our office in River North.
