Love this place. It's great for small plates, large groups, sharing food, etc. My favorite is the octopus but the pizza selection is great too. Great atmosphere and even better location!
4This is on the tourist strip and is full of tourists. It is so loud. The food was average at best. It simply was not a comfortable experience.

Cons: Too loud
This is not a place to go if you have a large group. We had a reservation for 15 at 6:00 PM. We arrived and waited an hour past our reservation time to be seated. (It was a Wednesday night.) They told us everyone in our party had to be

Pros: Excellent food and drinks
Cons: Food comes when it's ready
This is a great Italian resturant. I went there with my sister in the summer before we saw Wicked. We sat on the patio. The prices were very reasonable and the wine was so good!!! You can create your own antipasto tray which was nice.

This is a GREAT place to go with friends! Excellent food, wait staff is usually good, prices are fair! .. Be prepared that they bring food out AS IT IS READY, not together with the rest of your table. So this wouldn't necessarily be a good

Pros: Comfortable, upbeat, good food, appetizers & pizza,
Cons: Noisy, food doesn't come together
I have been to quartino's twice, and both times, the service, and food was great. Just yesterday, I went with a group of 16 people, and although we had reservations, we had to wait an hour. To accommodate for that, the manager gave us A LOT of free wine and free appetizers worth $100. The manager tried everything to make sure we left out of there happy, and he did a great job. The food was great, but i recommend the cheese fondue. It is so creamy and rich, and I have gotten it both times I have been there. The price was also very good. I recommend having each person order a different dish, and then sharing that dish with 5 or 6 people. We did that and it was only $17 a person with tax and gratuity, and the food was amazing. If you are looking for an Italian restaurant with great food at a great price, quartino's is the place to go!

I've been there a number of times, and each time has been worthwhile. One time the servers passed out free appetizers, we got 3 free! Everything I've had there has been above average. I love the white bean with garlic spead ( $4.00)

My husband and I stopped by for lunch a little before 11 am on a Thursday but the posted hours were 11:30 am. We thought we were out of luck because we were on a tight timeline for the airport but the chef was in the entryway and insisted

Service was great, but the food was just average. Ordering wine by the liter is a fun concept, but the quality of the wine wasn't anything to write home about. The pizza was bland; risotto undercooked; and several other pasta dishes seemed

We walked into this restaurant for lunch, as Pizzeria Uno and Due had a line out the door. It is about a block west of "Due." What a great find! The food (pizza) is authentic NY Italian and delicious. The wine is reasonably priced,

Pros: Service, Location, Cavatelli

This is one of my new favorite Italian restaurants in town. The sharing portions make each meal a fun and new experience no matter with who you are dining. The mozzarella is about as fresh as it can get, and the Toscana Pecorino it

Pros: Great Value, Fun Dining Experience, Bellinis

Pros: Unique restaurant concept in the Chicagoland area.
Cons: The uninitiated may find it daunting at first.
I have no idea how they're pulling this off for these prices! This restaurant would be a great value if you walked up to a counter and ordered your food, but instead we had great service and a lot of fun!

Pros: Lots of reasonable wines by the caraffe
I have been to Quartino a hand full of times and each experience tops the previous one and that's hard to believe. The food is as good as it gets in Chicago with a price tag everyone can afford. The Valet is even inexpensive. The crowd

Cons: noise, crowd on Friday night
I am writing in regards to our bartender that served drinks to us while enjoying a night out at Quartino. First off, he was pleasant. When we sat down he offered us a drink right away. I wasn't quit sure what I wanted so he made me one

I recently visited this spot with some family from out of town. We had a BLAST! The food was great, the wine was wonderful, and the service was very helpful. While you're here, be sure to check out the bathrooms for a surprise!
