Best Italian Restaurants in Niles

Great food & great service. Rosebud Restaurants are always a great experience!

We love Bar Siena, the food and service never disappoints. Last night we attended a special event with Chef Fabio Viviani where he cooked and taught about beloved Italian recipes. What a fun night! Looking forward to attending another of his cooking demos.

Going to a restaurant on Valentine’s Day for the first time is always a risk, as it’s usually their busiest day of the year and service isn’t always the best. But there were no lapses whatsoever during our experience, with the exception that the host didn’t notice our request in the reservation for a booth instead of a table. Thankfully they were very accommodating in making the shift. Our server was fantastic, as was the food. We thoroughly enjoyed the chicken limone and calamari linguine. We split their house salad, which was delicious, as was the sundae for dessert. Giving single stem roses to all of the ladies and playing 80s love songs was also a great touch! We will definitely be returning to this location again! Kudos to all of the managers and staff for making this Valentine’s Day dining experience one of our best!

The service was excellent. The food was very good. We had the meatball appetizer and 2 pasta dishes. I had a glass of pino noir and my friend had the pomegranate drink. I can’t remember the name. Both were very good. The valet service was also excellent. My only complaint is when I booked the reservations there was only a 2:30 and a 2:45 seating. When we came in there were a lot of open tables. We left at 4 and only a quarter of the restaurant was full.

The oysters on the half shell were big and fresh - best I’ve had in years.
