Everything was amazing, enjoyed our experience. I will say the pasta entrees are on the smaller side. Everything tasted amazing. Some of the best GF pasta I’ve ever had.

We had a fabulous dinner at RPM. The service, food, and drinks were all exceptional. Standouts were the frito misto, Caesar salad, veal chop and branzino. We will definitely return on our next trip to Chicago!

Outstanding dinner. The Sommelier was able to assist in choosing an excellent bottle of wine to fit our budget and compliment our dinner. Our waiter was attentive and anticipated our needs. A perfect dinner to celebrate a special day. I highly recommend RPM Italian.
