Great casual River North option. The wine is reasonably priced and many of the pastas are homemade. It can be a little noisy, but so are most places in the neighborhood.

You're not going for the decor, but the food is excellent! I found the restaurant because I was taking dance classes down the block. Now I go back for the food! (Also - BYOB)
