Monteverde

Yes, you have to put in a little work to get a reservation and yes, you have to go to the West Loop but honestly? It's worth it. The service is lovely (shout out to Rhoda!) and the food is consistently great. Take your parents here! Live a little!

Honorable Menu Mentions: Buratta e Ham (a half order is perfect for two people!), Fusilli Con Ragù Alla Napoletana, and the Funfetti ice cream cake they bring out if you're celebrating something 🥳
