"Italian food and Astral may not be the likeliest of combinations, but soon you could be using tequila and tortellini in the same sentence. This cozy corner eatery where Oak Lawn transitions into Highland Park has been wowing neighbors with its pasta dishes and veal specialties for years. Add to your repertoire an Astral Italian spritz, made with Astral Reposado Tequila, which could (and should) be your new pre-dinner go-to." - Steven Craig Lindsey
"Cozy Southern Italian trattoria serving warm, homey dishes that evoke a nonna’s cooking; standouts include polpettone (Italian-style meatloaf), lasagna Bolognese, and spaghetti and meatballs. Owned by Julian Barsotti of a Michelin Bib–listed restaurant, the menu and inviting atmosphere emphasize traditional, comforting flavors." - AFAR
"A neighborhood Italian joint can be Michelin-worthy. This spot on Oak Lawn Avenue is a gem in an area packed with great restaurants. Open for lunch and dinner, it serves red-sauce pasta inspired by Southern Italy: A go-to for Sunday gravy, chopped antipasti salad, lasagna Bolognese, and the chicken Parmesan with vodka sauce. The food relies on rustic inspirations and the restaurant’s decor follows that lead with funky wallpaper and oversized red booths that make the dining room feel like a home away from home." - Courtney E. Smith
"In Oak Lawn, it dominated the news cycle with its rebranding from being called Carbone, after the New York City phenomenon made a splashy debut in town in 2022." - Courtney E. Smith
"Owned by Julian Barsotti, one of his Italian restaurants landed recommended status; the write-up notes his two Italian joints quietly serve excellent food day in and day out, reflecting steady, every-day quality rather than fleeting trend-driven popularity." - Courtney E. Smith
