    My husband and I have moved to the Asheville, NC area and only come back to the Chicago area once a year to see family. We have been missing Quartino, especially because they can accommodate my lactose intolerance. This year, we decided that we had to go to downtown Chicago just so we could go the Quartino and Eataly. It was even worth the horrible traffic getting downtown!

    First visit since the place was converted from Ben Pao.. Beautiful feel (reminiscent of our beloved LEYE "Avanzare" restaurant). The music level was, in our opinion, too loud to maintain a pleasant conversation. It id not seem to affect other diners. Your Italian wines list is superb. We tried a bottle from Sicily (on our own but with approval from your in house sommelier).

    I went with a group of friends for my birthday, and it was the best decision I could’ve made! Although we were all late due to downtown traffic, the restaurant was willing to wait for my entire party to arrive while we waited at the bar. The food portions were outstanding! Everyone said that their food was delicious! The restaurant is beautiful, and it was an energetic vibe, but not too noisy. Our waiter was excellent. He went above and beyond even taking a picture of us outside. Although it is pricey, I would definitely go again.
