Thank you to Via Carducci! We recently held our small wedding here. Not only is the food fantastic, but the event planner Maria is simply the best. She and the staff helped us pull off a wedding and delicious meal without a hitch. I recommend this restaurant not only for an awesome date night or small celebration, but also for your larger events and parties. Genuinely friendly people and good food - you simply can't go wrong. Saluti!
We went there last night and got really lucky and got a table for 2 inside! The service was great and very helpful, everyone was nice and was making sure guests were having a good experience! The food was fantastic and the portions were very generous. We also got a bottle of Chianti and it paired deliciosly with our pastas. The restaurant was warm and welcoming and I really can’t wait until we come back again!
The highlight of the visit is the food, the portions are very generous and the food is pretty good. Drinks were awesome I tried their and limoncello drink (forgot the name) besides that the service wasn’t first class, waiters weren’t 5 stars but they might be having a bad day.
Wouldn’t say it’s a place I would frequent, but definitely enjoyed the food but not as highly rated as it wants to be
Legit one of the best meals I’ve had in a long time. Especially for Italian food. Pasta Napoletana hit the spot. Plus a dry Martini (gin). You always know when a place is good when they bring her bread out warm! Highly recommended!
Enjoyed the atmosphere and the service was great during a busy weekend dinner. We liked all the food and felt it was a fair value. The alfredo hit the spot, but could use a little more salt. Cocktail was a bit too strong (pomegranate martini). Overall, a place we would return to!
Went here for dinner with my husband. I got the Italian kiss cocktail and he had a glass of cab sauv. My cocktail was very boozy. The calamari was fried perfectly and not greasy. I had the chicken Parmesan and thought it was very good. My husband had fettuccini Alfredo and we thought the sauce wasn’t very robust tasting. We wanted more flavor. I love the hole in the wall ambiance of this restaurant and the menu is full of delicious sounding dishes. Staff is very friendly and attentive.
I have been going here off and on for years. The owner, Giovani, is very hands on and friendly and the staff reflects the same vibe! Very excellent food , service, and friendly atmosphere. Today was my wife’s birthday and we went for lunch. Haven’t been there in years. I was greeted by two familiar faces which were the same two very professional waiters that are always there. Consistently great!!!
Food and service exceeds expectations!!
Solid food and even better service. Definitely worth visiting if you’re looking for a lunch or dinner spot in Wicker Park. Reasonably priced and good portions sizes, not much more you can ask for. Dog friendly large outdoor area
I try go here every time I am in Chicago. The staff are so lovely and accommodating, the atmosphere is traditional and cosy and the food is so so good. We always get the grilled calamari to start as they are the best ever. And the eggplant parmigiana is perfect every time. Great wines, and a great location on bustling Division tops it off.
As part-time residents of the neighborhood, we dine here every time we are in town (about 2-3 times a month). Food and service is always excellent. Atmosphere is cozy, a nice neighborhood feel. Would highly recommend
Via Carducci is one of my favorite restaurants in the Midwest. I love their pasta and other vegetarian dishes. I enjoy their decent wine selection, specifically their Zinfandel🍷
I always request the same waiter. I don't know WHY I call him Andrew...and have been calling him "Andrew" for YEARS...but that is not his name. He's fantastic and offers lovely, elegant, professional service and is quite knowledgeable about the dishes and the wine.
I will be bringing more out-of-town guests here as the holidays approach.
