Viaggio Restaurant Chicago

Went here for my birthday dinner, and the food was very good, but the service was excellent and attentive (especially the waiter bringing the drinks). The portion sizes are not the biggest for an Italian Restaurant given that the price of the food is between 25.00 to 45.00 a plate, but the food is freshly prepared, made to order with great presentation. My appetizer was the Meatball Salad (a must get item), and my dish was the Shrimp Scampi with added mushrooms which was an amazing dish. My family all got Fettuccine Alfredo with either shrimp or chicken which was also amazing. My suggestion is to do valet parking at 17.00 if you are driving here because the West Loop has terrible parking. I would come here again for a couple's date night instead of a family dinner night because of the higher price point for items on the menu, and because of the vibe, and atmosphere that is cultivated by the amazing people who make it to be a couple's special occasion restaurant versus a family outing restaurant.

What’s good? The food! Old school Italian entrees in a fast paced, vibrant atmosphere. This place is not trying to redo Italian, it makes good Italian food. Great first Alston in West Loop. It was full but not crowded and the there were all types of people—big parties, young, old, people on a date, family. Bread service free, a long wine by the glass list—thank you, plenty of apps, sides and the entrees you want to see.

The food was good, nothing mind blowing, but not complaining about that, the ambiance a usual Italian style… where I felt a little miffed was all the separate charges for all the little things… e.g. my husband ordered a vodka pasta and the waiter asked does he want sausage, peas, etc. as if it is part of the pasta, then when we got the bill each thing he asked about was all a separate charge. It’s the principle of the matter not the price of every little nickel and dimming. Also, what is this surcharge? What are all these hidden things? While the waiters were nice, even though I mentioned we were celebrating 2 birthdays at least 2 times as well as in the reservation…not sure why they only acknowledged 1 birthday. Unless again it was about the nickel and dimming. Also, as a side note, the little chocolate cake they offered my son was so small… yet they came with 5 dishes for sharing… Huh? So again the waiter “suggests” more desserts… thinking it would be small like that piece of cake, he steers us to 2 more desserts… they are HUGE. While that is theoretically nice… Most waiters at other high end places will mention hey they are pretty big, as to alert you in case you are full… but nope… Anyways, all in all did not like the feeling of being had in the end. Definitely would go elsewhere for good pasta and upfront pricing.

We went to Viaggio’s to celebrate my daughter’s 21st birthday and it definitely did not disappoint. This was our first time and we will be back, everything was absolutely wonderful from the food and atmosphere to the service, I had the lake perch which you can not get like this anymore and my daughter had the lasagna. We also had the side Caesar salad (minus the anchovies) and a side of tortellini with Alfredo sauce.

Absolutely amazing! We were struggling to find a restaurant in Chicago that would allow a group of 20 to dine and Viaggio was so welcoming! The food was incredible. We will be back!

I visited Viaggio Restaurant in Chicago’s West Loop and found the food comforting and flavorful with standout pasta dishes like rigatoni vodka and a well-executed meatball salad. While the portions were generous and satisfying, I thought a few sauces leaned slightly heavy or overly rich at times. The ambiance was relaxed yet lively, with a casual setting that felt welcoming and unpretentious. Overall, the experience was tasty and enjoyable—a solid neighborhood Italian spot that hits the mark

I dined at Viaggio Restaurant in Chicago and really appreciated how fresh the ingredients tasted, especially in their handmade pastas and vibrant tomato-basil sauces. The pork chops were well seared and flavorful, though I felt the herb seasoning was a bit muted in one of the meat dishes. The dining area was cozy and warm, with a lively buzz that made it fun, though at times noise from other tables made conversation hard. Overall, the meal was tasty, satisfying, with room for slight improvements.

First time at Viaggio, and it was amazing! We were seated on time 😊 the decor, and atmosphere was lovely. Drinks were on point. Whiskey sour was delicious. We started with the Caesar salad to share, and it was great. For appetizers we ordered clams, and shrimp, and they were very tasty. For dinner we ordered vodka cream with shrimp, and it was outstanding. One of the best I've tasted. We also ordered veal Parmesan and it had the perfect touch of crispy, and deliciousness. Also ordered the braised beef pasta which was very good. If you're a sweets kind of person, the cannolis we're outstanding. Look forward to coming back for the vodka cream, and tasting other dishes. .

With Monteverde across the street, it could be easy to pass by this spot. Don't! A more traditional Italian spot comparatively, it's more cozy and lower lit. Our larger party was greeted warmly and immediately welcomed by our server. She answered our many questions and provided recommendations. For appetizers, we had the mozzarella smothered in fresh chopped tomatoes, almost bruschetta style. Yum! Calamari and the Ceasar salad were also tasty. The popular dish is Sunday Pork Gravy with pasta. Fall apart soft pork shreds in a tomato sauce. Big portions and enjoyed by friends. I had the lobster ravioli in tomato cream sauce and added broccolini. Usually ravioli portions aren't enough but I couldn't finish these. Good amount of lobster in every ravioli, delicious sauce and the broccolini still had a nice bite to it. Not soggy. We were stuffed but got the strawberry cake to go. We chose wisely!

I tried this spot again because I was in the mood for some good pasta in the west loop area. The restaurant is pretty! It has a sleek vibe yet gives off old school Italian vibe. You feel like a boss dining in. Here's what we ordered: Vodka rigatoni pasta with chicken-my friend had this and said it was good but chicken was underwhelming. And if you add protein, it's 10 dollars to add it to your meal! That's pretty steep. Shrimp with linguini-colossal shrimp with a light, lemon like flavor. Decent, bland in flavor. At price point, I wouldn't order it again. Service- Good. Server was kind; reminded me of being in Italy and gave us some Italian charm. Overall, I tried it twice, and it was decent. Nothing to write home about. I'm not sure I'll make a third trip.

3.5/5 stars for the service! I forgot his name but he was excellent and hilarious with jokes! Service was also fairly quick and friendly. It was definitely an upscale restaurant vibe with plenty of seating but you'd need a reservation for sure. There are immaculate details from the lighting to decorations. The food was okay. It wasn't anything incredible. The vodka sauce needed more taste and tiramisu was basic. To be honest I've had better store bought tiramisu. The eggplant also had poor texture and was not crispy at all. It was more cheese than anything. Pleasant experience but I'd try another place.

Our party of 3 ate here recently and had an amazing experience. We had a reservation and were seated in a corner booth. Our server arrived shortly after & took drink and appetizer orders. We chose to start with bruschetta, which was delicious. For entrees, we had the chicken limone, rigatoni vodka, and chicken Marsala. All were incredible! This restaurant is beautiful and has an authentic old-world vibe. Service was excellent. My daughter says Viaggio is one of her faves, and I concur!

Update : our waiter ended up next to us at the Katy Perry concert! He made such a good impression on us. It was just added to the fun night and apparently we made a good impression on him. How fun was this! Marcos and the kitchen knocked it out of the park tonight with the Seabass and lemon caper pasta! Also the chicken limone whist linguine was just as zesty flavorful. And the bread, oh we love our bread! Fresh out of the oven and perfectly crusty with roasted green peppers. We are now ready to party with Katy Perry. I didn't understand the up charge for capers? Didn't realize capers were a delicacy all in all it was a great experience and a very special dinner.

Made a last minute booking about an hour before the reservation time on a Friday night. We were seated without a wait. As you walk in, there's a beautiful bar and cozy velvet blue booths throughout the restaurant. A complimentary basket of warm bread and a plate of roasted peppers was served. My friends and I ordered: * meatballs (10/10) - the tomato based sauce was savory and delicious. I highly recommend this as an appetizer or side. * Parmesan chicken (10/10) served with tortellini alfredo was a table favorite. Such a good balance of flavors between the parm and pasta. * linguine with clams (8/10) was garlicky and perfectly al dente pasta. The clams were well seasoned. * gnocchi (7/10) - the flavors were a bit flat, but the gnocchi was perfect. This was the least favorite dish. We had a great experience and enjoyed the food. Definitely left carb loaded!

I'm a pasta girlie, I love Italian food and if someone were to ask me what I want to eat, I always pick Italian. My family and I have been going to Viaggio for years. We frequented their last location, and love the new, more modern location, which goes with the West Loop vibe. Anything you order will be delicious, trust me. But of course, my favorite thing is the rigatoni vodka. So saucy, the noodles are always perfect. For apps, we always get the crispy calamari and the sausage and peppers. Staff is so nice and welcoming, even in the newer space that is a bit more upscale. When you're at Viaggio, you'll always feel welcomed. The portion sizes are hearty and the food is good, old school Italian food. Not a lot of frills, just some good food. I've had great experiences every time I come here. And I love that they've changed up the drink menu and that there's more cocktails on the list now!

Meatballs 5 of 5: Real nice flavor in the meatballs and sauce. Perfect amount of sauce for the dishes and it all pairs nicely. I recommend dipping the each bite in the sauce. Gnocchi w/mushroom and truffle: 4 of 5: Almost a perfect dish for me, but it was lacking in flavor of the sauce. It was missing that standout flavor to put it at a 5 of 5. I'd say more truffle flavor and salt. I usually don't complain about salt, but in this case the sauce was really plain. The Gnocchi and mushrooms themselves were cooked perfectly though. Chicken Parm 4 of 5: Chicken dish was cooked perfectly, but the sauce on the included pasta is still lacking a bit in flavor. Service was fast, but we were lucky to find an open reservation, so I recommend to book with a lot of time ahead. Overall, great experience and will return at some point.

Amazing! The food was truly exceptional. From the complimentary fresh bread/oil/parmesan to the most delicious calamari, linguine with clams (so fresh and flavorful), linguini carbonara and tiramisu. In addition, the Lemon Drop martini was the best I've ever had!! Marco was our waiter which made our great experience perfection. The ambiance and decor is lovely and I can't wait to go back.

Omg I love this place so much I came twice in a week with friends. The servers are super nice and the food is phenomenal. They give complimentary bread as well with the meal, and you could get well for more if you'd like. They keep it warm so it comes out warm and crispy! Every dish I've tried here has been so good. I loved the calamari and all of their pastas. The portion sizes are good too. Can't go wrong with any of them. It's a nice and quiet restaurant, relatively easy to get reservations compared to other places in West Loop too. Happy to be able to stop by on short notice for such amazing food and vibes. The service is also great!

Such a great spot. Came here around 8pm on a Saturday and was seated right away. First off, the service was incredible-very friendly and helpful. The decor was cute and welcoming. They give you complimentary bread and roasted pepper. Then, to start we had breaded mozzarella. It was really good! Generous amounts of tomato and basil. I had the rigatoni with Sunday pork gravy. It was one of the better pasta dishes I've had! There was a good amount of pork and it was very tender. The portion size overall was great. My sister had the eight finger cavatelli and really enjoyed that as well! I will have to come back to eat here again.

5th time coming here! celebrated my boyfriends birthday with his family. As always inside is stunning. Service is good. Our waiter was very nice! We got the baked clams to start and the sausage and peppers. Both of these were great! I loved the baked clams with a little Tabasco. For my main I got the fettuccini and my bf got the vodka rigatoni. This rigatoni did not tasted like vodka sauce. Something was very off about it. It was not good. Fettuccini was average. Seemed a bit overcooked the noodles stuck together and were hard. I want to love it here but lately it has not been hitting. The birthday celebration was nice. They brought out tiramisu with a candle and sang. The Tiramisu was amazing.

I enjoyed my time here! The food was good and the restaurant was cute. However, we were kind of rushed through dinner and were in the restaurant for maybe 30 mins which felt super fast.

I thought the food at Viaggio is just ok! Chicago is known for having the best restaurants so we truly are spoiled here. They have an appetizer of burrata and ham but the bread served with it was so hard and not enjoyable. The pastas were good but nothing to rave about. They kindly split up our bowls which was nice! Staff is nice and it's always crowded.

We cam here cuz we Monteverde wasn't available. SO our hopes were high. Four of us arrived on time and they seated us right away. The service level was great. They had a great wine list. They brought water and bread right away. We ordered the sausage and peppers appetizer. OMG this was the best Italian sausage I've ever had. The peppers were perfectly cooked not wimpy and had some mozzarella cheese melted on top. I had the chilean sea bass atop of spinach. It was amazing as other reviews have said. OMG a large portion size of flaky and yummy sauce. My wife had the clam linguini and she thought i was just okay. The portion size was excellent so much so that she couldn't finish it.

Such a cute neighborhood pasta spot! Love the string lights, and ambiance. The service is amazing and food is great too! Cheese Ravioli 5/5: so good. The red sauce that comes with it is so delicious and perfectly balanced the ravioli with its tang. Would highly recommend! Rigatoni Vodka 4/5: pretty good, but it was a little creamy for my tastes so I would recommend adding crumbled sausage or something to break up the creaminess. Meatballs 3/5: not my fav, but not bad!

I went here the other night and loved it! The ambiance is cozy and intimate, which made it great for what we were looking for. Immediately upon sitting down, we were taken care of. I don't think I've ever had service this attentive anywhere else. Our water glasses were always full and each course was timed well enough to where we didn't feel rushed but we also weren't waiting a long time, despite the restaurant being pretty crowded. If you're a martini fan, try the French Martini - it was a great start to my meal. The food was delicious. We started with the bruschetta which had generous portions for our group. The creamy mozzarella on top changed the game for me and now I don't want bruschetta any other way. I ordered one of my go-to faves at Italian spots - Rigatoni Vodka. Much like everything else, it was incredible. The portion was generous enough for me to have leftovers for the next day! Our group shared the tiramisu and cannolis and from the few bites I had, those were winners too.

Tried this place for a second time and was not disappointed with the pasta. It had good flavor and service was good. The only thing that was not great was the stale hard bread they served us. I was able to make beats on my plate like a drum with how hard the bread was. The ambiance was nice, Mob icon vibes. I would come back and try other options. Not a bad place at all!

Attended an event while working and what a nice cozy place. And the staff second to none. A special shout out to a hard working bartender / server amazing human being named Angela whom I had the pleasure of meeting and chatting with. Great food Great staff Stop in relax and enjoy You'll be glad you did

Very hit or miss. I ordered the carbonara which was phenomenal, and my friend ordered the limone with chicken and it could not have had less flavor if they tried. The kitchen had swapped our, meaning I went home with the limone pasta instead of my own and was incredibly disappointed and did not finish the leftovers due to the lack of flavor. The service was outstanding which is what keeps my rating at a 3 instead of a 2. Our waiter was incredibly friendly and helpful and managed to check in with us throughout the meal despite being slammed. The restaurant was incredibly loud even at 9 pm, so we basically had to yell across the tank to each other.

Great service and nice atmosphere. Decent food... took my staff there. Enjoyable experience.

Cannot recommend Viaggio enough to anyone looking for outstanding Italian. The restaurant itself is beautiful. The experience we had was outstanding; from the delicious food, and kind service. Marco was so kind, and an exceptional waiter. Recommend the sausage and peppers, veal Parmesan, and vanilla bean cheesecake. Everything was marvelous, we can't wait to come back.

Went to Viaggio to celebrate my daughter's graduation from college. What a great experience. We were seated without delay. Marcos, our server, was on point from the very beginning. Cocktails were fresh; the wine selection was on point. We had the Meatball salad & Fried Mozzarella for the appetizers & they were delicious. I had the lobster ravioli in vodka sauce & it was some of the best I have had. They gave my daughter a dessert to celebrate & the owner gave us an after-dinner shot that was a nice touch. We had cannolis & tiramisu that topped off the evening! They treated us like family! I can't wait to get back to Chicago and go again! Thank you!

A girls' night meet with lots of laughter, catching and delicious food! It was my first time here and I will definitely be back!

Great service! We celebrated my husbands birthday and it was great. We had five other couples with us before a show. They made sure we had time to eat and drink.

I don't normally like to pay for fancy Italian food since my mom makes better than most. BUT LET ME TELL YOU. this was so worth it. Cute location in west loop, indoor is more swanky Italian than crowded cubby hole (IYKYK) and it's really charming. Good spot for a family dinner or a date, there were children there but I was personally surprised since the menu was more like elevated Italian. I got the chicken parm with tortellini and what a fun combo that was! Chicken was tender and juicy, cheesy perfection. My friend got the salmon and it was also really good! Really lovely food and atmosphere, I will have to bring mom next time and see what the chef herself thinks!

Best Eggplant Parm ever! Warm inviting atmosphere and great vibe! The staff were a friendly bunch. We sat at the bar and got great advice on a wine selection and meal choices. I highly recommend a visit to this authentic Italian homestyle cozy West Loop eatery.

Viaggio is an old school Italian place offering great service and comforting standard dishes. Delicious linguine with clams, veal parm, mussels all hit the spot. Definitely worth a repeat visit.

The linguine and clams is one of my all time favorite dishes and keeps bringing me back. The meatball salad is also a must have! I love the feeling in the restaurant that it's a family restaurant where people all know each other. Service is always great and friendly.

Marco was an amazing waiter! Lots of places to choose from in west loop, but this spot has great food, and great ambiance. We will be back!

Lovely Italian spot! Interior and vibes are really nice. Staff was friendly and welcoming. Food is flavorful and perfectly cooked, my favorite was the orecchiette!

Visited the new Viaggio's for my Mom's Birthday on 6/3/23. My dad has been to the original location and kept wanting to bring us here and I'm so glad we stopped. We had an early reservation (this is definitely the move, there was basically nobody in the restaurant for the first 30 minutes we were there, then it got packed). We ordered - French Martini (not pictured) - Black Walnut Old Fashioned (not pictured) - Meatball Salad (not pictured) - Mussels in the spicy red sauce - Eggplant Parm - 3 Specials from that night - Pistachio Gelato and the Blueberry Cheesecake (not pictured) I highly recommend doing what we did and have everyone order something different and share. I was so impressed with how good everything was, I genuinely have no notes for this place. Our waiter was extremely knowledgeable and attentive, the ambience is awesome (on the darker side), and the food is incredible with extremely generous portion sizes. I will definitely be back here!

Tremendous experience tonight at Viaggio! We had a group of 27 in need of a last minute dinner reservation. I was able to effectively communicate with the restaurant via email hours before they opened and they were able to accommodate us. We received tremendous service and very friendly attitudes during our meal, and the food was delicious. I cannot recommend Viaggio enough for a great dining experience in the West Loop!

Viaggio's is one of the best Italian restaurants of Chicago. They bring the authentic version of Italian. Gourmet food and great service making this a dining experience a time to remember. 5 out of 5 stars!

First off hands down THE BEST Italian food I've EVER had! Service was top notch! This family run business is a hidden gem you better not miss! Excellent decor, excellent service, and out of this world food! The fact that Dave was there himself greeting guests table to table speaks volumes for a business! Top notch service from right from the inside out! Started out with the FAMOUS meatball salad (don't skip this) and baked clams (wonderful)! Additionally the bruschetta was above and beyond! For entrees had the chicken limone and chicken Milanese! Every bite is filled with flavor from beginning to end! Don't forget the dessert menu! Gelato galore! Thanks so much Dave and a huge thank you to our amazing server Niko! GRAZIE!

I have only ordered takeout, so I cannot speak to the ambiance or service. However, I can speak to the food. I have mixed feelings because there are some things I strongly disliked and some things I really liked. I have not had good experiences with the appetizers. For example, both the Baked Clams and the Fried Calamari were very fishy and we were not able to eat them. And I LOVE seafood. I love clams, mussels, oysters, scallops, calamari, squid, and all types of fish. But these were not good. However, for entrees, I have gotten the Veal Limone and it has been fantastic. I swap out the linguini for spaghetti since I am not a big linguini person. The lemon sauce is delicious and I also ask for capers to be added (veal piccata is not on the menu, so I make substitutions to get veal piccata ). But the serving size is big and can last me 2-3 meals and it heats up just as good as the first meal. It comes with around 3 big things of veal with the pasta. I highly recommend! For dessert, I am not a big cheesecake person, but decided to try the Vanilla Bean Cheesecake. I am surprised by how much I like it. I have now ordered it multiple times and I still love it just as much. I love the texture of the cheesecake and the chocolate on the top. The strawberry drizzle adds the perfect pop of taste that compliments it perfectly. So in summary, stay away from seafood, but the rest of the food and the cheesecake and phenomenal!

Viaggio is a great spot for a special occasion dinner. The food is great, the atmosphere is cozy and intimate, and the service is pleasant. It was very easy to book a reservation via OpenTable for our Thursday post-work dinner, although I'm not sure reservations were totally necessary, as we were only one of a handful of diners. We were greeted warmly when we arrived and promptly taken to a cozy table. Our server stopped by quickly after we were seated, took our drink orders, and shared the specials. We each ordered a pasta dish and both were phenomenal. Everything tasted super fresh, which was appreciated. Prices are a little high for the portion, but are on par with other West Loop restaurants. We split a Caprese salad to start, which was $13.00 for 3 slices of tomato, which felt a little steep, but the fettuccini alfredo was $23 and the espresso martini was $16, which is about what I expected for this area. I was disappointed to see that there weren't any happy hour specials, which makes Viaggio more of a special treat, rather than a regular spot to catch up with coworkers and friends. I'll certainly be back in the future. This is a great spot to bring out of town friends or for a date night.

We were greeted enthusiastically and given the vast menus. Service was faster and better than in any restaurant I've been in in many years. The food was flawless. The fun part was being recognized by several groups of diners on our way out from being on the Jumbotron at the Blackhawks Rangers game. We shall return.

Amazing food and awesome owner. This is our go-to for Italian in Chicago. We love the ambiance and the staff is great too. If you've never had a meatball salad go I highly recommend.

Excellent food and atmosphere but the eggplant lacked textur otherwise it would have been 5 stars. Wait staff was courteous and black walnut old fashioned was great. Meatball salad is always a winner as marinara very flavorful. A rad bit pricey$$$$

Was happy to get a 7:30 reservation last minute on a Saturday night for a party of 5 . Restaurant was very busy when we arrived they do have ballet but when we arrived ballet was not out front we waited awhile thinking maybe they were parking or getting a car waited about 5 minutes still no valet. Spot in front opened so parked there At first service was very slow no one came to table we were not in a hurry so it was ok Prices are on the higher side but portions are larger. I got the chicken Milanese it was very thick definitely not thinly pounded as it should be . Had a nice arugula salad with it and side of pasta thought for price and portion good deal Others had Sunday pork gravy Alfredo and bolognese they were all ok nothing very wowing It was our Son's birthday and wait staff came out singing happy birthday with a chocolate cake slice and candle that was nice

I was able to get a reservation fairly last minute & glad I did. Food was great, service was good as well. I got the filet medallions & the sauce was phenomenal. My boyfriend ordered the vodka pasta & it was also delicious. Overall great experience & would definitely recommend.

Made a last minute reservation here on a Saturday evening. When I walked in, I loved the atmosphere. Very romantic, dim lighting, and instrumental music playing. I had the chicken vesuvio, and it comes with 2 large chicken breasts, peas, potatoes, and a white wine garlic sauce. The sauce was delicious and clearly homemade. My boyfriend had the chicken Marsala, which he said was also great.

Great birthday dinner and top notch service. I never usually order specials but the pork chop special was fantastic and enough food for days. Everyone loved their dishes - rigatoni vodka, lasagna, and penne bolognese. Portions are generous and the ambiance gave the feel of a neighborhood joint with great Italian food, catering to locals and void of any pretentiousness vibes.

Really great Italian spot! Expect a typical menu but the flavors were incredible. The initial peppers and bread they give is tasty. The Eight Finger Cavatelli was really good, and the Spaghetti Carbonara was delicious! The pasta was really fresh and the portions were on the larger side. Also got the house Lemon Drop which was quite strong - always a plus. Service was great too! Will definitely come back here when I'm craving pasta - it truly hits.

This was my first time finally experiencing Viaggio. We started at the bar w adult beverages served up by a fantastic bartender. She was excellent & even was quick to let us know none of the 24 beer taps had a keg connected to them as we were looking for the draft list. Thanks for the heads up bc I would have been looking high & low for days. To management, get kegs for those taps; there are great Illinois & Wisconsin, shit Colorado craft brews you have rotating on there. Any ways we went with some Caymus red & other Savignon Blanc, which was great. Cool looking long bar with a nice wine & cocktail list. Minutes later, we headed to our table and awaited the rest of our guests to join us for dinner. The highlight of the night besides the exquisite food was the amazing service from Marcos. Marcos was so on point and attentive to everyone. I have not seen exquisite service & attention to detail has he offered since when restaurants flourished pre-covid in big cities like NYC. LA, Chicago etc. It's so great to see someone care about their job so much and create a spectacular experience for the diners as he did. This just doesn't happen anymore. The food was fantastic, at the table was bread and marinated green bell peppers, which were delightful. Tonight we decided to dine on the Eggplant Parm, Gnocchi, and Fettuccine Alfredo. All were really good. The portions were very hearty and fulfilling. The decor is very Italian casual with pictures of the Rack pack & Marlon Brando. If you are in search for some tasty Italian food drop on in, you won't be disappointed.

The service was out of this world. The waiter was so patient and kind, gave us the best recommendations. The owner stopped by our table twice to check on us and make sure everything was up to his standard. Food deserves 100/10 stars!

I ordered delivery from here last night on Uber Eats, they completely screwed up my order in sending me chicken INSTEAD of the Veal Milanese that I ordered. The chicken itself was entirely inedible, far tougher than tire rubber, and the cowards running this outfit REFUSE to answer their phone, going into voicemail mail boxes. Uber Eats refunded me an absolutely PATHETIC $7.01, less than the tip for my courier, please just go out of business now!

This is one of the more challenging reviews I've had to write, largely because of the current climate. I'll start at the top. Quite simply, Viaggio is barely even trying when it comes to the city's mask mandate. Other than a place like Richard's Bar, which has always operated a bit outside the law, I haven't seen such blatant disregard for the mandates since this all started nearly two years ago. Our server did not have a mask. Nor did the bartender. The host and manager (?) more often than not had theirs around their chins. Customers weren't expected to put them on when walking through the dining room. Most who entered didn't even bother putting them on. It was almost like it was understood that this isn't a place where that matters. The bussers and food runners, yes, they did have masks. But it very much felt like a rebellious act that they were doing so. On the bar side of the restaurant? It felt like some other time, I half expected to see people lighting up. On the restaurant side? Still not much regard, but at least the occasional modest attempt. The food was above average, from the complimentary bread to the sizeable portions of chicken parm and pasta. The pasta was a bit overcooked, but overall the sauce was very good and the food was well seasoned. The issue, besides the lengthy description at the top, was that Viaggio purports itself to be fine dining, when the experience is anything but. This wasn't table service where wine choices are suggested with your entree, this was more like a bar that happens to serve good Italian food. And hey, I'm all for a more casual atmosphere, but then I shouldn't expect to pay $100 for two entrees and two glasses of wine. The food? Pretty close to four stars. The ambience? A solid 2. The blatant, almost proud disrespect and dismissal of statewide laws? An obvious 0.
