"Earlier this month, 93-year-old Joseph Monastero died. The Trib last week published a tribute to the man who ran Monastero’s for 55 years on Chicago’s Northwest Side. Monastero’s is an iconic part of Chicago’s Italian American history and closed in 2017." - Ashok Selvam

The food here is delicious and fresh. The staff and owners are warm and knowledgeable. When my child got wiggly they were helpful. When a couple arrived for their anniversary the staff clearly knew them and welcomed them warmly. There were regulars as well as families. In addition, there was a pianist who was wonderful. Thanks for making date night with my child so wonderful!

Absolutely amazing place. The food is authentic and delicious. Came here for a friend's wedding and felt like I had found a hidden gem. My only regret is not learning about it sooner! The mandatory valet parking was a bit of a hassle for someone not used to such formalities, but the staff was fast and pleasant to interact with. If I lived closer I would definitely be a regular here. I thoroughly enjoyed my time and would recommend this place to anybody in the area.

If you are looking at Monastero's to host your wedding ceremony/reception, look no further. We had the privilege of having our wedding (ceremony and reception) at Monastero's -- and they helped us making our wedding vision and dreams come true (at an AMAZING price-point, nonetheless!) Maria is incredible -- she worked with our budget and exceeded our expectations. Her attention to detail and kind heart made the wedding planning process so much easier (and enjoyable!) for us. We truly feel blessed to have been able to work with her! Our guests continue to rave about the food -- from appetizers to main courses, drinks to cake -- everyone loved it! I am certain nobody left hungry! The staff at Monastero's were consistently kind, thoughtful and attentive (especially Martin!) Monastero's is a true gem. We could not have been happier with all they did to make our wedding such an amazing and memorable day. Thank you!!

Best meat sauce I've ever had on spaghetti! I was reluctant to try it because I wanted something filling and I have at least four stomachs for all pasta, but I was full and perfectly satisfied overall. Not only did we get the full Italian experience including dessert and coffee (which blew my mind how perfect the combination is after a great meal) but we were audience to a beautiful operatic song sung by one of the owners.

Classic Italian/Sicilian restaurant. Great service. Tasty, filling entrees in generous portions. I love the thick minestrone soup and the tiramisu. Great pizza, too. We had our wedding reception in one of their banquet halls. I will miss them after they close on November 18, 2017.

Old school family Italian restaurant, this place is delightful. Classy and elegant this place never disappoints. There's most always live music...singer and piano. The food is delicious and fairly expensive, but so worth eating here. Perfect place to take a date for an intimate evening.

This place is really good! I felt like the service could have been a bit better (somehow less intrusive and more responsive). But, that being said some of the food here is amazing! Good, quality food that definitely tastes home made!

I never write reviews .. But for this one, I had to .. I came here for a bridal shower, by the pics and other reviews I was excited .. But nope, didn't like it .. They brought out the pop AFTER, we had pasta, salad and appetizer .. So we literally had just water. The food sucked.. The only good thing was salad, "you can't go wrong with salad" .. Nope won't suggest it to anybody !!
