Gussie's Handmade Italian is a fantastic restaurant known for its amazing food and great service. The garlic bread is delicious, and the pasta is some of the best around. The atmosphere is unassuming yet elevated, resembling an old diner transformed into a charming Italian eatery. Customers enjoy the authentic Italian touches, including limoncello, and the location is convenient, directly across from Second City for a comedy show. The service is attentive, with staff, including the host, providing excellent care. Portions are generous and great for sharing. Gussie's offers a variety of delicious pasta dishes, such as Linguine all'Limone con Gamberoni, Pappardelle with Wild Boar Ragu, and Spaghetti Carbonara, all made with fresh, high-quality ingredients. Recent diners have praised the unique flavors and excellent appetizers. Whether in a rush or looking for a casual dining experience, Gussie's is a highly recommended spot in the city, where customers have had wonderful experiences and look forward to returning.
