Laid-back eatery offering inventive Italian cuisine and wood-fired pizza, plus weekday happy hours.
"The original Etta is one of our favorite restaurants in Wicker Park, but they aren’t open for lunch. Luckily their brand new location in River North is. You can still get their delicious house-made pastas, pizzas, salads, and sandwiches, and they have a bakery case where you can pick up some fantastic pastries too. We haven’t been here yet, but want you to know this spot exists." - Team Infatuation
"A prototypical neighborhood restaurant and easily scaled, a second Etta soon opened in River North." - Ashok Selvam
"Etta River North has closed citing challenges in Downtown Chicago. The location, which opened in 2020, was a spinoff of the original Bucktown location. It was intended to replicate the initial success but faced difficulties due to the pandemic and other factors." - Ashok Selvam
"Etta, a high-profile daytime spot known for brunch and food cooked in a wood-burning oven, has closed its outpost in River North after more than three years at 700 N. Clark Street. The news came as a surprise to employees, several of whom say management alerted them just hours before their shifts were scheduled to begin." - Ashok Selvam
