Italian restaurant · Streeterville

"Locanda is an Italian newcomer inside the Residence Inn by Marriott in Streeterville that "deserves a bigger audience." Phil Vettel writes the plates "not only are unfailingly pretty, but also often feature extra touches that speak to value and commitment." The "super-rich, delicious" burrata is balanced by a pool of tomato gazpacho while "excellent" pastas include ravioli stuffed with a liquidy truffle filling and an "especially good" frutti di mare pasta. Among the entrees, there’s "well-made" osso bucco along with a "delicious" branzino over wine and fish-stock sauce. The "star dessert" is the peach-almond tart featuring a custardy filling and goat-cheese gelato." - Jeffy Mai

Spiaggia

Italian restaurant · Gold Coast

"We’ve made the difficult decision not to re-open Spiaggia and Café Spiaggia. We were very much looking forward to welcoming back our family and guests. Unfortunately, we were unsuccessful in our efforts to restructure our lease, which was necessary to reflect the realities of operating a restaurant in an office building, post-pandemic. It’s been an incredible journey, and we are beyond proud of, and grateful for, 37 remarkable years. From the moment we envisioned the restaurants, our passion has been to elevate fine dining Italian cuisine. The endless number of special occasions, the most passionate staff and the amazing talent still delighting guests around the country, will remind us that Spiaggia and Café Spiaggia will live forever."
