I would give less than 1 star if it were possible. Not sure what part of Chicago you are from but this food is not in any way comparable to a good authentic Italian eatery in the city. The food is mediocre at best. The prices are over inflated - especially for the area. I know the parking lot (small as it is) is always packed, but I think it is because people are either just used to going there for "fine dining" or really have no clue what good italian is.

i am originally from the city of chicago, and to all my fellow chicagoians in the lake county area, if you want good italian food, visit this place! the food is phenomenal with very generous portions, the staff is friendly, knowledgeable about all dishes/drinks and accomodating, the owner is always there visiting with customers and most of his family is part of the staff and are equally welcoming and friendly. The atmosphere is elegant and has a home like feel. Depending on what you order, could be on the pricey side, but otherwise reasonable. I have never had a bad meal here and always leave with a doggy bag. If you visit plan on skipping dessert, I doubt you'll make it!

The food is exceptional. The steaks are superb. Everything is delicious and the wait staff kind and courteous. I believe this is the best restaurant in the area.
