50 Best Italian Restaurants near Burr Ridge

“Probably my third time ordering from here for family gatherings at my house and it's ALWAYS been terrific.
From ordering to pick, is fast n easy. Food is on time, hot and delicious. Pricing is on point. I feed 10 and the full trays are more than enough and always left overs that taste even better the next day. Meatballs are outstanding. Rigatoni in vodka sauce is everyone's favorite but the sausage giambotta blew me away, perfectly done. My families smiles while eating is great! Also everyone is so kind and friendly there. ☺️

“AMAZING!!!

Decided on a vacation week! Chose Berwyn due to its proximity to Chicago. Glad we did!

What a great community!

We stopped in around 5pm. Nice greeting! Quickly seated.

We started with the Bruschetta. Instantly knew we were in the right place! Grilled bread! Not to hard not to soft. Fresh ingredients, great flavor.

I chose the lamb chops. Holy Smokes! Best I’ve ever had and that’s saying something!! I don’t know how they did it!!?? Grilled! Breaded! Crunchy! Tender! Perfectly cooked. Broccoli perfectly! Served with potatoes that were a little crispy with big flavor!

My wife had the Crab Cake. It was huge! Loaded with crab and perfectly seasoned and fried. The sauce paired perfectly with this dish. She also had penne pasta in their Marsala sauce. Again, everything was fresh and amazing.

Ended it all with 2 desserts because why not!
Tiramisu….Amazing
Crème Brûlée…Amazing

We ate all over Chicago, this was our #1 favorite!

Thanks for a great meal! I’ll be dreaming about those chops!! 🤤🤤😃“

“5 stars for HECTOR in Western Springs!!! Hands down this was the absolute best dining experience I’ve ever had! While the food was delicious and the overall ambiance and decor of the restaurant was cozy, it was our server that made this dining experience over the top, great! HECTOR, you are a gem, a diamond! You have an absolutely charming personality and made my mother in law’s birthday dinner an experience to remember! From your spot on suggestions, to your lovely rendition of “Happy Birthday”, to the funny banter, our whole family left talking about how wonderful you were! We will be back and we will be sure to come when you are serving! Thank you Hector!!!“

“Was perfect. Great wine great food. Great service. Will be back. Thank u.“

“Excellent food, great service, knowledgeable waitress“

“an instant superstar in this community, people will come from near and far for this quality of Italian.“

“I have nothing but compliments for this wonderful establishment! My fiancé and I went out to dinner last night and had a taste for authentic Italian. I found this place online and read nothing but wonderful reviews about the food, and service. Located in downtown Westmont. Parking was so easy (right across the street), and from the moment we walked in we were treated like royalty. The manager Sergio greeted us with a huge smile, sat us, and told us a little about the restaurant. Our server Alysa was nothing short of amazing, knowledgeable, and gave us wonderful recommendations. We felt like family! All of the food is made in house, pastas, sauces, and even the wine and desserts! You can taste the quality of the ingredients, and tell that every single person puts so much care into making sure every customer is happy. The whole experience was wonderful, and it’s so nice to see small (not chain restaurants) are thriving. It’s been a long time since we had an experience like this at a restaurant and we appreciate their hospitality! I think we found our new date night spot! We will be back!! OFTEN! If I could give 10 stars I would! 👏🏻🍾🩷🙏🏻🫶🏻“

“INCREDIBLE Italian cuisine. Everything was made fresh to order by the owner himself, who also was our server! Small quaint little spot, like your typical little old school italian eatery in Little Italy! Highly reccommend! Oh, the best Vodka Sauce I have ever had in my life. Try the wrapped eggplant in Vodka Sauce, Maddone!“

“Our Women of Impact group had a celebration dinner Thursday evening February 2nd. ✝️ We were treated like royalty. 👑 Delicious yummy food and the service was outstanding! 😋 Thank you Kristen and Tacho for your excellent service and helping us to celebrate! 🎉 We will definitely be back soon!💕“

“This was our second time dining at Positano’s and it was just as fabulous! The food here is superb, the wait staff are very attentive and we love the photos on the wall! The Seabass was to die for and the grilled seafood appetizer was divine! Our only regret is that we live in New York and cannot be frequent patrons of this wonderful establishment! Mille Grazie!!“

“Food is fantastic with great portions. Get you some good food here.“

“My first time dining experience was amazing 👏🏾 Our server Madeline was super sweet and so attentive to our party of 5. It was my first time but not my last time.“

“Been here a handful of times ..
The pizza is th Star !!
Last few times the food was not as on par with the first 3-4 times.
Staff was slow and food was slow.
The first few times i went was when they first opened.
Seems service went down a bit!“

“I have loved this place my whole life! Best pizza on the south side!“

“Love this place. Great flavorful food, great wait staff. Our “goto” place for great comfort food.“

“Pyszne jedzenie, miła obsługa bardzo pozytywna atmosfera. każdemu z czystym sercem polecę. owoce morza pychota. Bywam prywatnie i z grupami i każdy wraca zadowolony“

“Great place to dine and great food“

“Solid food every time! Had great risotto last night, their pastas are always good & great cocktails. Take home family meals are delicious and a lot of food for the money. Recommend!“

“Had dinner on 12/17/2023 service and food was excellent. Gluten free menu available.“

“Ohmygoodness... From the get-go, we knew this was going to be a wonderful venue for our daughter's bridal shower. To start, I met Steven and Karen at an exciting fundraising event many months ago. We dined at Lucca several times thereafter. Each time we experienced the food and service to be impeccable! We then met Sonia, the Sales Manager, who was lovely to work with! We were assured that that our event would be terrific! Indeed, Karen and Shannon were amazing at anticipating our guests' needs. They seemed to know exactly what everyone needed at the exact time they needed it. Our guests were so impressed with the delicious homemade dishes and the attentive service! I can't speak highly enough of the entire experience at Lucca!“

“My husband made reservations at capri a great surprise. I love seafood and pasta. Great place to celebrate a special occasion.“

“Great service and always consistent food. They have a partnership until August 23 with @makeawish“

“We go often but I must comment on how the hostess greets us every time we come in no matter how long it's been between visits. She is so happy to see us. She's such a joy. Then, of course, we get our favorite waitress, Tina, who is always smiling. And then there's the extra large piece of lasagna and chicken Caesar salad and don't get me started on the warm bread. I just wish we were younger when we used to be able to eat appetizers and desserts in addition to our meals instead of taking half our meal home :(“

“This restaurant makes you feel at home. The owner and staff are very welcoming and friendly. The food is also delicious and made with love! My favorite place to go after watching the Chicago Fire!“

“I have been wanting to go Rosemary and Jeans for the longest time and I am so so glad we made it! The overall atmosphere of this place is incredible! It's homey, inviting, and all around makes you feel welcome. The staff here also brings out the best of the restaurant. Attentive, great suggestions and so so kind.

Now the food! It was amazing! Flavorful, fresh, and all around delicious! I cannot wait to get back here and sit outside on their gorgeous patio!

If you're looking for a great Italian stop with a great feel and good food, check them out! You won't regret it! We'll be back!“

“Josephine, our server, was great; she remembered serving us two years ago! And she made perfect food and wine recommendations. We ordered the lasagna and the orecchiette-both delicious. The tartufo was something new for us and didn't disappoint. Roberto's is a lovely restaurant and we definitely will return again next year when we are in the Chicago area.“

“Excelente servicio y comida deliciosa“

“We were a fan of the fabulous food already. But when my husband and daughter planned a surprise Birthday party for me, we were VERY impressed. They said whenever they asked Ricardo for something the only thing they heard was: No problem! OR… Whatever you need! And ALL of our guests complimented the food and most took home doggie bags. If you need a party room and want to work with the most accommodating staff - give Ricardo a call. If I could give a 10 star rating - I would. I promise you won’t be disappointed!“

“We always enjoy visiting with Bill and enjoying their delicious dishes (especially those crazy good wood fire pizzas!) Amazing!“

“I love this place. The atmosphere on the outside patio is so nice with the lights and tents. The serves are so friendly and helpful. They have fun drinks and the food is delicious. Such a great place to go for dinner. You feel like you're on vacation.“

“This is a hidden gem.

The Italian sub was very delicious along with the meatball sub.

If you haven't been to Jullianni's Puzza, you are missing out.

Staff is very friendly.“

“One of my favorites in the west suburbs of Chicago.“

“Great place- very good food, Old Neighborhood Italian 🇮🇹 classic ambiance!“

“Had a birthday party with 18 people July 3, 2025 and it was an excellent experience. We were set up in a private room and our server was outstanding (I wish I had written down her name 🥲). She helped us order family style entrees in just the right variety and quantity. Food was delicious. No one had to wait for a drink - our server was always there to take an order. What a perfect evening!“

“If you're looking for a perfect date night spot, this is it! We did see families enjoying their dinner too, so great for families. The atmosphere, service and food is top tier!!! 💯 Hands down, best filet and chicken vesuvio! They have live music on the weekends, which makes it fun for a night out with friends too!“

“Very nice. Highly recommend. Excellent food, very good service, great atmosphere and ambiance. Will definitely be back.“

“Pablo, our waiter, was exceptional. During our first visit here, he warmly welcomed us and showcased impressive knowledge of the menu, even extending to items not listed. He encouraged us to customize our meal to our liking, and he certainly delivered! For starters, we chose the grilled calamari and Rockefeller oysters. The calamari was tender and impeccably cooked, steering clear of the typical rubbery texture. Opting for balsamic instead of oil was a perfect choice. The oysters were superb, not overwhelmed with cheese. I ordered the veal picatta from the menu, expecting a thin slab, but was pleasantly surprised by the generous portion size. The angel hair pasta complemented the dish well, although I could have done without the mushrooms – a personal preference, which I should've mentioned. Nonetheless, if you're a mushroom enthusiast, they give you plenty. My boyfriend ordered off-menu, enjoying the Zuppe di Pesce with shrimp, clams, extra calamari, and rigatoni Diablo style in red sauce. It was absolutely amazing and satisfied his taste without being overly spicy. To accompany the meal, I had a glass of the house Chardonnay, which was light and buttery. Even my boyfriend, who doesn't typically drink wine, enjoyed it. Our heartfelt thanks to Pablo and the owner/chef Giovanni for an outstanding dining experience, both in terms of the meal and the service.“

“Our first visit very delishes food reminds me of the friends who lived in the Italian neighborhood here in Chicago. Thank you all! Ed & Peg“

“SUPER LOVE THIS LITTLE GEM!!! Burgers, Fries, Salads, Chicken Pot Pie and Tomato Basil Soups, Salmon, etc. are amazing!!! Peppermint Bread Pudding is TO DIE FOR!!! Great service! Sadly, their one stall restroom is a bit distant. But their food makes me SOOOOO HAPPY!“

“Asked for a slice of sausage pizza, one small order of fries, and grape crush soda. Paid and took to the restroom to wash my hands. Came out with two slices of pizza and two cans of grape soda. I was confused. Asked the register lady if she charged me for two and she said no they cut the slice in half and it comes with an extra can of pop. Was charged $14 bucks. Not what I ordered. Pizza and fries are fire tho. AC was on point.“

“Since we moved to the area in 2017 this has been our go to spot for my wife and two daughters, last night again did not disappoint - the food , service is on point every time! It’s nice to have a place to go to and wind down after a long week!“

“One of the best spots for authentic Italian and the best traditional atmosphere and great service and customers!“

“Absolutely loved dinner last night and can’t wait to return. Very authentic flavors. All four dishes were well prepared. Chicken Special w/Prosciutto & Fresh Mozz was wonderful. Fettuccine Alfredo - fantastic. Marinara Sauce - spot on. Table salad was delicious. Cocktails were delightful! Tiramisu Cannoli’s IT Ice - all just perfect. Our server made wonderful suggestions and was very attentive. The entire staff was very friendly and welcoming. Excellent experience all around. Really had a great time! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Ordered DoorDash...pick up. Pops sends text, order ready..
Yet my husband was in there for 7 minutes. Soups are not listed on online menu. Aka..DD.onion rings..mediocre...no crackers with soup and chili. Beef great..pepper sandwich..good. needs garlic..olive oil..burn then a tad.“

“Everything there runs better when MARY is working. She is friendly, efficient and seems to be able to multitask better than most employees at the Oak Lawn location. She’s the best !“

“A delivery app made a mistake with my order. LaBarra took charge and the general manager personally delivered 2 delicious pizzas to make up for the outside apps mistake. Above and beyond! Thank you!“

“very good razonable prizes“

“Food was good. I had the spaghetti with meatballs...nice portion as well. What you see in the picture is what I'm bringing home so easily enough for 2 modest sized meal. My gf loved the pomegranate martini and had two....she said she caught a nice buzz“
