    We have dined at Made in Italy a few times now and every time was an excellent experience having interesting, not typical Italian dishes and very good quality at reasonable prices. We highly recommend Made in Italy as a must try Restaurant experience.

    What a great night we had at your restaurant as always. Our friends first time and they were blown away at the high quality of Italian Food they had just like their much younger days growing up in Melrose Park! That is quite BIG compliment from those who know best. I am grateful I picked here and we got in with our reservation ahead of time= KEY! Their Veal dishes were fabulous along with our Crab cake and Shri mp and Pistachio Sausage GF Pasta. Salad are always fresh and the wine is superb. I know we will be back to support this Great Glen Ellyn Establishment. Keep it up and THANK YOU.

    Made in Italy is a true local gem with outstanding food, a nice wine selection, and very fair prices. The dinner specials are always a treat with very full portions. One of our favorite restaurants! And their A&G Sub Sandwich Shop is equally as good!!

    This may become our go to place for Italian cuisine. Two family members ventured from the city to the burbs and absolutely loved everything. Generous portions of great food and outstanding service. The motor scooter in the entrance is really charming.

    As an Italian this is one of the very few Italian restaurants I trust with my favorites! My veal piccata was delicious and the burrata and bruschetta appetizers were perfect. I can’t wait to come back this summer for stuffed squash blossoms! Thanks for being delicious as always!
