Nice place. Comfortable atmosphere, food was very good & the opera singers were an unexpected super-bonus! We will go there again for sure.
A great "old-style" Italian on the north side, Via Veneto is one of those places where you can describe a recipe, and the kitchen will execute it as you wanted it. Excellent veal and pasta dishes, complemented by a strong wine list, and excellent desserts.
A quiet neighborhood Italian restaurant in the heart of Lincolnwood. They will spoil you with some of the best food outside of Italy, and their desserts are indescribable. Even the coffee is good.
This is the best Italian restaurant we've been to! Chef Anthony makes memorable sauces and they only serve the freshest, highest quality ingredients. My favorite is his Funghi Risotto -I'm salivating merely typing it and I'm not even the biggest mushroom fan!! Great service, warm, welcoming staff, comfortable, stylish decor and tons of easy parking. Oh, did I mention that the food was YUMMY!?!
The italian food is really tasty, but be prepared for a very heavy meal. Via Veneto serves all of the typical Italian (American) dishes, so this is a great neighborhood restaurant to try if you're in the mood for Italian. The service can be slow, but the servers are usually very polite and knowledgable.
