Food was absolutely delicious.

Very easily could have spiraled out of control as we arrived at 415, for 430 reservation. No room at the bar, a bit frustrating. However the tides changed quickly! First off the reason why we had reservations to begin with, was due to the fact that we dealt with the restaurant through email, after the Resy app, said there were none to be had. The food and the service was absolutely incredible. Wanted to try the plates that were enjoyed on “ somebody feed Phil “ Chicago episode on Netflix, but knew we couldn’t take leftovers, due to show, so they showed us how to order ala carte. If we ever come back to Chicago, this is a MUST stop!

Well done. Of you can find a place that can make a proper Bee's Knees as a cocktail than you have found a well thought out venue that aims for perfection. The service is brilliant, and only because it is so tasty the food actually exceeds the service. The Gnochetti is not to be missed...Likely the best thing on the menu. The chicken was outstanding, as well. Skip the Risotto Balls..it has been done. What makes this Argentina/ Italian fusion work so well are the sauces. Incredible. Get reservations as this place has a great vibe and is jammed.

Many friends have recommended this place to me many times so here I am. This is my honest review: everything was too salty for me and my friends, and everything we got were just... average. I got the cacio e pepe and it was probably one of the worst I've had. It tasted like boxed Mac n cheese and I felt really bad after having a few bite and decided it's probably best to stop eating. The meatball and sausage were okay but nothing special about them. Mushroom salad and stuffed cabbage were too salty. My other friend also felt really bad after dinner. Overall, the vibe and service were great, but food was just average you can probably get the same things at whole foods, would not recommend it.

I saw this restaurant featured on Netflix Somebody Feed Phil and couldn't wait to eat there when I planned my trip to Chicago. I tried for weeks trying to get a dinner reservation on Resy and setup notifications in case of last minute cancellations and I was able to get a reservation for lunch on a Friday. They are open for Friday and Saturday lunch and they do take walk-in's and I noticed open seating at the bar and the dining room close to 2pm. They also offer delivery and takeout!BURRATA E HAM $28rosemary tigelle, prosciutto di san daniele, mostarda, burrata; add prosciutto butter $4*it comes with 4 tigelle and if you've never had tigelle it's similar to an English muffin but very dense, 4 slices of prosciutto, nice size ball of burrata and the prosciutto butter is a must! it's worth the $4 which adds a unctuous buttery porky flavor to your sandwich. This was our favorite bite during this meal but one of the most memorable during our 4 day visit.SOPPRESSATA MEATBALL $7 per piecemangalitsa pork, pomodoro, wild oregano*the meatball needed more structure, it's a very loose meatball, a bit undercooked for me with a lot of pink, and neither of us were a fan of the texture or flavor, we each had a couple of bites and didn't finish itEGG YOLK RAVIOLO $23ricotta & beet green filled, speck prosciutto, sage, poppy seed, balsamico*one large raviolo which had a beautiful yolk that ran out, the accompaniments were lackluster, I would not order this dish again for the price point and also the fact I was still hungryTIRAMISU $17espresso soaked lady fingers, mascarpone, marsala zabaglione, cocoa*a bit soggy for me, and I don't think I've ever spent $17 on tiramisu but the portion was very largeNerello Mascalese Rosé $15TENUTA DELLE TERRE NERE 2020*this rose had a slight pink tint but honestly didn't have much flavor, it reminded me of a sauvignon blancSERVICE/ATMOSPHERE:I noted on my reservation I was celebrating my bday and they were nice enough to bring me a slice of cake with a candle. Lunch was ~$100 and it was an energetic atmosphere in a very modern space. The selection for lunch is smaller than the dinner menu but I would definitely come back for dinner to get the tigelle appetizer and some pasta.

It was absolutely delicious. The best meatball I have ever eaten in my life

Plate after plate was excellent, the service was terrific, and the overall atmosphere was warm and inviting. The Arancini, Burrata Ham, and Chocolate Torta were memorable.

Sometimes a restaurant cannot live up to its accolades. In my view Monteverde exceeded my expectations. My family sampled several dishes including the Creste di Gallo, a sensational pasta, and shared the Ragu Alla Napoletana. This was incredible and easily feed the three of us. Since my son took me there for my b-day, the restaurant treated us to a slice of the birthday cake. My family agreed that this was the best birthday cake we have ever eaten. We cannot wait to return.

After years of never being quick enough to snag a reservation, I was finally able to grab a last minute lunch this week. I'm happy to say it was an incredible meal that lives up to all expectations.I absolutely loved the artichoke and sunchoke crostino. The arancini was tasty, though a bit heavy - I'd definitely recommend splitting this among 2-3 people. The egg yolk raviolo was one of the most unique pasta dishes I've ever had - very lemony, incredible textures, and quite filling. I can't wait to return!
