Barnelli's Pasta Bowl is a classic Chicago spot where you can enjoy a solid, no-frills Italian meal in a quick-service setting. Known for its generous pasta portions and flavorful sauces, the restaurant offers options like the penne a la vodka, which is praised for its creamy, flavorful sauce and al dente noodles. The baked mostaccioli with meat sauce and garlic bread are also popular choices, providing cheesy, saucy, and satisfying flavors. The interior has an old-school, nostalgic vibe that combines elements of a diner and an Italian grandma’s kitchen, adding to its charm. While protein options can be extra, the dishes are so tasty that it’s often not missed. The restaurant is especially busy during lunch and shares the building with Portillo's, making it a convenient spot for a quick, comforting meal. Overall, Barnelli's Pasta Bowl is a great place to enjoy delicious Italian food in a friendly, casual environment.
