Labriola Ristorante - Chicago

We were staying at the International and looking for a place to eat. Labriola was next door and Italian sounded good so we decided to check it out. The place as packed but with just two of us we were sat right away. The place was very loud but we were served right away.
The food was excellent. We shared the stacciatella to start, which was kind of like an Italian charcuterie board. It was very good. I ordered the Richie's Lemon Chicken and my wife got a salad. The portions were huge and the lemon chicken was amazing. It was so moist and flavorful. I can't wait to go back and get it again.

This pizza might just be the best I’ve ever tasted! Every element is spot-on—the fresh mushrooms, crisp peppers, savory sausage, and house-made sauce all come together in perfect harmony. The crust? Pure magic. Our server Ramon was awesome, keeping an eye on us even in a busy restaurant and making sure every slice was enjoyed to the fullest. It’s the kind of pizza that makes you grin with every bite, and honestly, I can’t wait to come back and devour it all over again!

Food was really good. Wish we would have had the skinny deep dish. Had a good blueberry cider.

We had the deep-fried pizza and it was delicious. Highly recommended! The server jasmine was also very friendly and easy to chat with. Definitely go here if you love pizza, but if you order the deep-fried pizza, don't add anything extra, because it's a lot.

Very nice Italian restaurant. The servers were attentive, but not intrusive. The food was fresh and well-prepared. Overall, a positive experience.

We had a reservation & we're seated immediately in a very busy place👍 Everything on menu was not available & we didn't know until we were placing our orders for items they didn't have. Steak not prepared as ordered. Pasta bland, disappointing. Long wait to place order & to be served at our table (2.5 hrs there with kids). Waited an hour for a glass of wine. One appetizer was eventually prepared & packaged for us to take home since it wasn't ready until we were done eating our main course. Our server was sweet but very overworked, stretched thin(?). As we were paying , we eventually noticed that tip was factored into our total. We had already added tip to it. We were able to fix it, but especially annoyed after our experience through the night. We definitely take responsibility for tip, just not a great experience from start to finish in a Chicago restaurant.

Food didn't taste great. Atmosphere looked nice, but the waitress spoke so quiet like it was a whisper and we couldn't hear her. The only plus is that the food always came out fast.

Another great visit to Labriola. Food was excellent and service was great. They even made a drink from the Christmas specials that wasn't on the menu anymore. Really nice people.

Deep dish was great, the sauce was great and crust was perfect. Fried zucchini chips were a great appetizer, meatballs were a little dry but taste was decent. Lemon chicken was good, not a fan of the potatoes it came with. Good service, very nice ambiance.

Took our 8 and 10yr olds to the city for the night—Made a reservation through Open Table mid-afternoon, to hopefully get-in in a timely manner. We were seated right at our Reservation time. Restaurant was full, but not overly noisey. We all loved the food, as well as the service. Ambience was cozy. Yasmine was our server and was OUTSTANDING. Ask for her if you go!

It was our second visit. We enjoyed Happy Hour which was till 6 PM. Great service and food.

Atmosphere was amazing Food was ridiculously good Ozzy our server was on point all night!!

The deep dish pizza wasn't fully cooked, almost like it was rushed and the half/half was more like 3/4-1/4 . We've been here dozens of times, this was not their best effort. Service was pretty solid besides a few hiccups. Maybe it was the later reservation, closing time, or the holiday rush but something was off.

This is a nice restaurant with great service and excellent food. The portions are well sized and taste fantastic. Also, he service was very good and provided for a great evening. I would say that this is a restaurant that I would definitely put on my preferred places when I visit Chicago.

We had reservations and was seated right away. Overall service was great! Servers were friendly and the food came out so quickly. We enjoyed their toasted raviolis, goat cheese dip, deep dish pizza, chicken Parmesan and their fettuccine alfredo. It's a fun place to bring family/small groups. Would come back here again.
