*Update to 07/23- this restaurant maintains a great experience and food. We had orecchiette allá pugliese, just divine!
As always great service, we love the waiter, he is always so nice. Environment is excellent. Truly Italian experience all the way around. We sat in the back patio.
**Great experience! We have been here twice, dinner and brunch. Decent prices and good food. Very distinct from other Italian restaurants.
Dinner was amazing service was very good. Brunch menu is great. We asked for prosciutto side which wasn’t on the menu and we got it. So, you can always ask.
Flavors are so fresh and natural. Nice to have different type of vegetables than the usual, natural bursting flavors. Thank you chef!
Service and environment is great.
We were very satisfied. Will definitely go back.

A great place to hang out with friends and family. They have a dim lit super looking ambience ideal for someone wanting to spend quality time.
There is a bar, all in all very unique to itself. You are greeted by polite and friendly people who get into meaningful conversations with you.
They have some excellent spirits and great Italian food.

Mike K is single handedly is the reason why we decided to dine at this fine establishment. He saw us reading the menu outside and gave us the entire history of the building and restaurant before he invited us in less than 30 minutes before the kitchen closed. We just had gotten to the city after a long 7 hour drive and he made us feel right at home. He even gave us a tour of the original upstairs dining area that survived the old Chicago fire. Most importantly, the food was perfectly on par for what we needed. I recommend the Fried rice balls and pork shoulder dish they have. A most when I’m the Gold Coast neighborhood

Great restaurant. Food was great here. Went for thanksgiving. Staff was very nice and accommodating. The outdoor area was nice too, only downside is that they need some music out there and a couple more heaters. The tent they have is awesome, but wind and cold air still finds its way thru. Overall, pizza was great, pasta was great too.

Great Italian traditional restaurant with a great personal touch. We sat on the patio and the night was beautiful. The wine was great, the music was perfect. We ordered the tasting chefs courses. The Tomato soup was the starter, it was great. We had whole wheat linguini. Then we finished with the chocolate mousse, the mousse was amazing, very think and very good. You can tell it was authentic and made fresh. Overall the service was good, fast and professional. The setting was cozy and wasn’t crazy busy on a Friday night around 9. Highly recommend, the chefs courses were only $28 which was super reasonable for the amount of food we ate. There is an amazing mural on the inside, must see,
Fernanda Nunes Ramalho
Everything was delicious… very well prepared, beautifully served, and prepared quickly as well.
The service was quite slow though… there was only one bartender so she was definitely overworked and drinks took a while…
We’d definitely go again for the food!
Louis Müller
Awesome restaurant! Great Italian atmosphere with excellent service. The food was amazing. The shrimps in the Cioppino were outstanding. Good for a date night but also for small groups. Large wine menu and a couple beers available. The Menu has pizza, a variety of starters pasta, seafood and meat. It was hard to decide what to eat because everything looked delicious. Can absolutely recommend this place.
John Weber
Great time with friends. Slav, the restaurant manager was able to accommodate our party of 20 when we reached out earlier in the week and we had drinks and appetizers in the front room. The staff was very nice and the calamari and espresso martinis were amazing. Thanks again!
Armando Cornaglia
Great food and atmosphere, friendly staff NB and clean tables. Dessert was the star, the veal was amazing, but would have been S+ with just lemon and salt. Didn't need the breading. All and all pretty dang good.
Cj Robards
Seafood (calamari, octopus, shrimp, scallops) on black noodles in a perfectly blended tomato base orange sauce. So good! And slow roasted pork shoulder, melt in your mouth. Mike was a wonderful host, everyone made us feel so welcome and special. Beautiful outdoor seating.

Had the Gnocchi genovese and Orechiette pugliese and both were excellent. We are from RI and hard to please given there is a huge italian influence on food in RI. Excellent. Highly recommend.

My family had a memorable experience. The service was warm and excellent. The food tasted as great as it smelled. We ate outside and it was so relaxing. Thanks for a the great time.

The best restaurant in Chicago for sure.

They deserve 10 stars!

A great place to go on a date. Great food , amazing ambience and lovely drinks. The dishes might look on the higher side but definitely worth it. I would love to go back again.
Josh Wolfrum
Amazing food. Fantastic service. Reasonable prices. We visited later into the night when it was slower, and we loved chatting with the bartender. We ordered food, including dessert, and took another meal home. They brought us the to-go meal just as we were leaving. Perfect timing. Will definitely be back!
Laura Ltt
Cocktails not the best if you're more of a vodka based drinker instead of something like bourbon, but the food is plated beautifully, the patios are charming, and the food is delicious! Would come back to try the other dishes
Melissa Reneé
We stumbled upon this place by accident while visiting Chicago. We were just walking around looking for a place to eat. The outdoor patio looked inviting and there was no wait for a table despite not having reservations. We were more than pleasantly surprised. Our waiter was fantastic and recommended everything we ordered and even weighed in on our wine selection. The staff was incredibly attentive and we never had to wait for a thing. The food and dessert was impeccable.
This will be the first place we visit on our next trip to Chicago. �����

Highly recommend! Came here to celebrate my sister's birthday and from the moment I checked in with the host to leaving the restaurant, the service was 5 stars! Everyone is so friendly and professional- it left me in awe. Our server was amazing- knew everything about the menu and was so friendly. Timing for water service and bread was on point and everything flowed really well! They clearly know how to provide great service- and the food was absolutely delicious~ hats off to the chef. We ordered the meatballs, rigatoni with lamb sausage, and the mushroom risotto. Cocktails are refreshing and light- I ordered coming up roses and it was so refreshing. This place deserves a Michelin star already in my opinion. Thank you La Storia for a great evening and also for the olive oil cake for my sister's birthday. :) Will be sure to continue recommending and come back again!
Cassie Soelke Chytracek
We had an amazing dinner. The service was top notch and the food was right there with it. Every bite was absolutely delicious - I loved the cauliflower starter, the grilled octopus was surprisingly delicious (my first time trying), the raviolis just melted in your mouth and tasted amazing, and we won't even get into the dessert 😋 I can't wait to go back!
Harvey Hoffman
Wonderful menu and wine list! Interior and ambience is beautiful. Enjoyed the Grilled Octopus and Rabbit Risotto! Recommend stuffed Branzino entree as well as Seared Scallops and Little Neck Clams. Exceptional service from Bill and Jenna as well as our server. We'll be back! 11/27/15
Michael Joseph
Dined with a party of 4 and sampled most of the menu. Each dish was bursting with flavor! Thank you for a wonderful evening. We will definitely be dining here again!
Luann Purin Sweeney
Wonderful food, great service. Pasta and fish were fantastc. Best capresse salad ever and calimari was so light crisp.
Héctor R Colón
Always nervous about trying out a new place but this was absolutely AMAZING. Most remarkable were the interesting flavors; everything is on the salty side, but wow, delicious. Service was outstanding, the GM had a lot of input in the huge wine list; he loves to talk about it and help you pair a nice wine with your meal. We were very impressed that he recommended a bottle way below $100.
Scott McGowan
Excellent food and service, also the fresh oysters were huge, creamy and great.
The spring pea gnocchi with lobster was excellent.
Kathryn Micek
Loved this boutique restaurant. Delightful! The wait staff were engaging and attentive. Food was luscious, and not too much.
Susan Klein Bagdade
Yum, yum, yum! A fabulous place to celebrate ones birthday!
Ed Mrowiec
I visited La Storia for the first time last evening. .There were 11 of us celebrating a dear friends birthday. .What an incredible meal...everything was excellent. ..Well done La Storia..
John R Dallas Jr
Thursday was my fifth or sixth visit. Truly outstanding.
Among various dishes I thoroughly enjoyed, Scallops are cooked the best that I've ever had outside of New York.
Service is taking on a more elegant tone, pace, and feel, less obsequious and more natural; maturing with experience. More genuine smiles, and less nervousness that often comes with the startup culture of a significant new restaurant.
Servers are becoming more predictive of customer wants. Check-ins by managers appear quite genuine.
Yes, five stars. Love it! Enjoy it all.

Great experience! From the Mussels, to the Brown butter Gelato, it was great!! Kyle, I think, was a great server also! all the way around!
Ruth La Sure
This is a great restaurant, I loved everything about it, the ambience with its murals on the walls, the attentive wait staff, and the Food!!!!! I hope it is in my neighborhood for a long, long time!
