Embark on the second stop of our Wine Dinner Tour through Italy, where we journey to the vibrant regions of Campania and Apulia for an unforgettable evening of food and wine. This five-course dining experience showcases the bold and diverse flavors of Southern Italy, expertly paired with hand-selected wines that bring each dish to life. Begin your culinary adventure with Mozzarella in Carrozza, a crisp, golden bite filled with Bufala, prosciutto, and anchovies, complemented by a velvety tomato cream. Savor the delicate balance of Risotto infused with organic lemon jam, clams, and lobster tartar, followed by a rich, truffle-kissed Orecchiette with Colorado lamb ragu. The journey continues with Black Angus Braciole, slow-braised to perfection and served alongside a decadent Fake Ragu and creamy Burrata. End on a sweet note with Pastiera Napoletana, a traditional ricotta and lemon tart, paired beautifully with Passito di Fiano. Each course is thoughtfully matched with wines from esteemed producers, showcasing the depth and character of Campania and Apulia. Join us on March 25th for an evening of authentic flavors, expertly paired wines, and warm hospitality. Reserve your seat for this exclusive event and experience the essence of Southern Italy, one sip and bite at a time.

Yesterday the food was not prepared well. Too oily, salty and just not at all the authentically Italian experience i have had here before. The drinks were too sugary. Quality was just not there…

Outstanding experience once again! Lovely hostess seated us immediately at our reservation time. Our food was utterly delicious, eggplant Parmesan and beef carpaccio, finished with a coconut sorbet to die for. Servers were attentive but not intrusive. Stephen and John went table to table greeting everyone warmly. A true standout in the crowded Oakbrook restaurant scene! Can’t wait to go back!

Deanna was the best server! She was patient, knowledgeable, and attentive. We would come back just for her service. The food was some of the best Italian inspired fare I've had in a while. The chef's dishes were all complex, tasty, and perfectly seasoned. The classic dishes didn't disappoint and the unique ones were just as amazing. House made pasta yum. Dessert special with a type of almond custard tart topped with fresh pears was to die for! You must try this place.

The food was delicious and the service was phenomenal. Food was a bit pricey for what we got and the size of the portions.
