- MMiriamChicago / Illinois •4 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoGreat experience from start to finish! When I made the reservation, only outdoor tables were available so I left a comment requesting to be moved inside if anything opened up - and immediately on checking in, the hostess offered a table inside. The decor is classic and welcoming. Drinks were brought almost immediately after ordering them. Enough staff that someone was always attending to us. Food was delicious, especially the cacio e pepe. Highly recommendMore infoSammie's ItalianPrice: Expensive• Italian• Downtown•4.8

- BBradChicago / Illinois •1 review5.0Dined 5 days agoWe celebrated my wife’s birthday here last night and from the get go felt like we were taken care of. The hosts seemed sincere and cheerful wishing her a happy birthday, and that set the tone for the night feeling special. I’ve worked in service, and I know it’s not always easy to be festive on someone else’s behalf when tons of birthdays are celebrated every day, and the kindness of the staff stood out. Sandra took wonderful care of us, comped a dessert for the birthday and made sure we had everything we needed while giving us our time and space to enjoy the meal. We will be back!More infoAba - AustinPrice: Very Expensive• Mediterranean• East Austin•4.8
- KKarivipAustin •1 review5.0Dined 5 days agoThe food is out of this world and our server was attentive in the most balanced ways and knew the menu well! Ask for Vincenzo, he’s an amazing server! Its my #1 place to take guests who are in town, but you have to plan ahead!More infoRed Ash ItaliaPrice: Very Expensive• Italian• Downtown•4.9
