"Yes, it’s an Italian chain, but it’s way better than Olive Garden. These people are serious about their bolognese. Stop in for a bowl and don’t miss the crispy eggplant Parmesan. Don’t want to go all in on Italian? The chef’s boards of Italian meats and cheeses are an excellent option. This bright, airy, and ample space comes with an outdoor patio, open-air bar, and an upstairs outdoor terrace with views into Victory Park." - Courtney E. Smith
