Ciao Amore

I had the chicken with porcini mushrooms was wonderful. My daughter had the ravioli with lobster and arriabiata sauce, which she said was delicious. The wait staff and owner were very congenial and checked constantly to make their patrons were taken content.

Another BYOB Chicago Gem -- grab your favorite yummy reds and head for Pilsen without delay. Ciao Amore has a deceptively tiny store front entrance that opens on a bright, eclectically appointed double dining room running the length of the building. We found C.A. trolling MetroMix for somewhere new to celebrate my husband's birthday after a chorale concert at the Benedictine Monastery a couple miles south. Three hours and three hundred dollars later [including tip] SEVEN of us had licked our plates and bowls after appetizers, salad, entrees, dessert, and coffee. The service was perfect, the sauces were delectable and distinct, the gnocci to die for and the experience delightful. We'll be back.
