This is the one place I enjoy visiting each time I travel to Chicago, especially during the Holidays. Atmosphere is festive. I usually grab something at the bar, pasta and wine, and then meander through the store for gift ideas. This time I decided to grab and dessert and coffee too. It's got everything... chocolates, pasta, wine, cheese and other food items you would expect in an Italian store. Next time you are in Chicago, be sure to stop by... Ohio Street, 2 blocks off the Magnificent Mile (Michigan).

Great Italian food! Fried calamari was well seasoned and fried perfectly! Pizza had a great combination of cheeses and crust had a perfect chew. The spinach stuffed ricotta and tomato was fresh and simply delicious! The olive oil cake and lemon sorbet was a great end to a great meal! A little longer than expected, but we ordered from different places.

The best experience ever! We asked them if they could do our gender reveal and they were awesome. The manager went above and beyond! The food was delicious as well. Staff was very friendly.

I really enjoyed my experiences. The young man with a bald head at the restaurant whose name I do not remember was incredible. He was patient and accommodating, and the food was stellar!! Can't wait to return!

Wednesday is a busy night at the restaurant. It took a while for our order, then for dessert and the bill. The bruschetta was wonderful with zucchini and fresh ricotta. The mushroom papardelle were cooked perfectly, the seafood pasta needed another minute to cook, very few shellfish for the price. We tried the olive oil cake, which was good. Pricey, I'm not sure I'd return as I didn't love it.

I didn’t eat here.
The wine experience and the sheer volume of Italian goods were incredible. We chose to guess the wine and enjoyed the bottles tried. We weren’t successful, but we were close and we enjoyed the company.
The server was very kind, patient, and funny. We enjoyed ourselves greatly. Thanks so much.

Not our first time at Eataly. This time our food was marginal. The pasta under cooked or sat under a heat lamp too long. The Pizza Margarita was unimpressive. The service was great and our waiter Chris very attentive. The tiramisu was very good.

Every Italian ingredient you can think of. Two floors of goods and eats. We had some pizza that wasn't heated up long enough and the staff didn't seem too attentive to the customer. Overall I wasn't too impressed. But if there is a hard to find product, this place should have it.

One-stop italian shop for food, groceries, desserts, wines, and many more. Loved the ambience and freshness of the food we tasted. We ordered veg pizza, focaccia, and seafood pasta.
Tried a few desserts.

We love this place… You could literally spend a whole day there! They have groceries from fresh produce to seafood to cheese and all kinds of bakery items. They also have a bar, several restaurants, café, pastries, and dessert, bar, and many other things. They have a wine cart on weekends where you can order a glass of wine to drink while you peruse the amazing selection of the store. You could actually get everything you need for a home-cooked meal here.

This is my second time eating at Eataly now bringing Chicago visitors and it was just as good the second time! The food, vibe, and service were all wonderful! We ate in the Pizza and Pasta section and ordered 4 different kinds of pastas. My personal favorites were the ones without pomodoro/tomato base with the gnocchi with pasta being my number 1.

Tomato Focaccia and pasta were really good. Truly not a alot of protein options on the menu. Apart from the restaurant, they have various markets and item to buys if you love or enjoy Italian cuisine. Will definitely be bringing my partner here for a date next time we go to Chicago.

Yes, you should definitely check out Eataly. A “don’t miss spot” when in the area. Walking through the store is an adventure in itself. Check out the beautiful meat, seafood and cheese cases. I wish I took more pictures! Buy a loaf of amazing, fresh bread! Try the pizza! The coffee! The gelato! Try it all! My only complaint is that there aren’t cashiers at the grocery check out. I can’t stand having to do self check out if I don’t want to. It also bugs me that they don’t accept cash. Other than those 2 service issues- Eataly is a blast!

Eataly is a perfect marketplace where you can find everything for a delightful dinner. We truly appreciate their extensive selection of goodies, including prosciutto, cheese, Italian sweets, chocolate, pizzas, and desserts. If you are near Eataly, definitely go there, as you'll be able to discover something delicious for you.

This is one of my favorite places in Chicago. I recently came back from Italy 🇮🇹 and Albania 🇦🇱 and I miss my European flavors. I definitely recommend checking out the restaurants upstairs, especially the Vino &. Some of my favorite dishes are the Caprese, the Branzino, the Pistachio dessert and the Limoncello drink 🥂. Make sure to check out the market on both floors and taste Italy 🇮🇹 again

The best place to eat before or after running the Chicago marathon. The attention is first class and the best Italian food in the city. For the runners they make a menu where they serve you pasta with sauces that are not very elaborate but delicious and with their double version. When you come, ask for Malik and Alvaro, which are excellent.

This review is specifically for the “Vine &” restaurant. For those of you not familiar with Eataly, this place has a number of restaurants, a cafe, and a grocery/gift store. “Vine &” has good pizzas, pasta, and fine wines (** a disclaimer that my opinion on “good” Italian cuisine should be taken with a grain of salt due to my limited exposure). We loved the pizza, the calamari fries w/ zucchini, and the complementary tiramisu (not always offered!). We didn’t quite like the cocktails. Not the best place to expect great cocktails from I guess. Next time we will surely try their wines. My impression is that this place is understaffed, so wait times after you order could be longer than expected. Loved their atmosphere! Visiting again for sure!!
PS. Try the Espresso con panna from Lavazza (ground floor). This was great!
Patricia Schmidt
PISTACHIO and HAZELNUT! These flavours are incredible tasty! You will not regret to follow this tip, I promise! I’ve already tried their Milk gelato and it’s not so great.. So put your focus on Pistachio and Hazelnut! Lol
If they have available the cone, you should order as well!! They worth as well!
Negative point: Eataly is ALWAYS crowded! So besides possible lines, there is also the possibility of not having a place available to sit down… nevertheless, I still believe it worth to go there!

This was my 3rd time visiting and again it was wonderful! The BEST gluten free pizza and pasta I've ever had anywhere! Our server was excellent, he knew the menu very well, including the gluten free choices! Thank you Eataly so much for having delicious pizza and pasta for us gluten free people��

I went there with my two young granddaughters and one wanted pasta the other wanted pizza. The little one got the bunny shaped pizza which was so cute and according to her so delicious. She ate the whole thing. The older granddaughter ordered spaghetti with red sauce and of course she ate all that as well. I ordered a tagliatelle with brisket Bolognese and it was to die for. It was probably the best pasta I have ever eaten. I have been to Eataly before but this was the first time I had the pasta and it was absolutely delicious. I can’t wait to go back and try it again.
Julie Frazee-Mayo
Such a wonderful place. 2 floors of Italian deliciousness. Gelato, ravioli, vino and so much more. A must when visiting Chicago!!

Service non existent.
Pizza was a hunk of bread with non tasting tomato sauce and cheap mozzarella. We picked the wrong place - skip Birreria better places to eat in this establishment. Sorry �
