I love this place so much! The food is beyond outstanding, the servers are so accommodating, and the ambiance hip yet welcoming. The owner must never sleep as he’s always there and taking care of his customers as well as staff. It’s a very delicious and well-oiled machine. Bravo!

It was my Birthday, and I was visiting my son’s family. I have never been there before and the experience was wonderful! The appetizers were perfect. Everyone loved their meal. When we all finished we got desserts and it couldn’t have been better.

We celebrated our wedding night with close family at iL Mio and it was so amazing! The food was incredible (as always) but the staff made sure to make the entire evening memorable! We will absolutely be celebrating more special moments here in the future!

Stopped in for a few drinks after golf. Beautiful little bar with an outstanding and attentive bar staff. They kept an eye out for when I needed another Manhattan.

Disappointing Dining experience~ Food was good.
Clarendon Hills location
You can find good food at many places but it is the good service that makes a restaurant standout and keep you coming back. This one failed.
*We went there on Wednesday Sept 11, to celebrate my birthday. Six adults and 2 grandchildren. We had reservations, and were seated outside, all good there. The problem was the service was terrible. Water came quickly and then we waited and waited and no one came to greet us so after 15-20 minutes and then I asked someone to please find our server. Roberto came and took our drink order and when he returned with our drinks we quickly ordered 2 appetizers, worried he might not return for a while. We like to eat slow and enjoy each others company so we were not in a hurry, I just like the waiter to check in on the table every so often. The grilled calamari and the Ricotta with toast points were very good. The bus person did an amazing job of clearing plates and such in a timely manner. But again our waiter did not return to take our food order, after waiting another 25 minutes I again I asked someone to please send our waiter to us. We ordered our main courses and another drink. Food was brought out hot and was tasty.
* Being my birthday my husband asked for a piece of cake to be brought out. The grand kids were looking forward to the Chocolate Lava cake. He brought out expresso panna cotta and charged us for it!! I could see if it was complimentary but we had to pay for it and the kids could not eat it as it is loaded with expresso. Very disappointing experience.

Il Mio was recommended to me to try their business while I was completing a 10 mile endurance event. I visited the business with a coworker and sat on the Patio. The decor and look of Il Mio is relaxing yet modern.

I ordered the short rib parmigiana. The meal was flavored well and very satisfying. I travel to this area for business occasionally. My experience was good and I will be returning to try other items on future business trips.

My family is beyond grateful to Rich Ciota and his incredible team for ensuring that our daughter's bridal shower was pure perfection! Our friends and family could not stop gushing about the fabulous food, gorgeous venue, ambience and customer service. The waitstaff and bartenders could not have been nicer or more accommodating. Thank you, Rich, for your excellent communication, guidance in planning, attention to detail and kindness throughout. We always felt like we were in great hands!! I highly recommend Il Mio for showers, rehearsal dinners, brunches, or any special event!!

Cute neighborhood and AMAZING FOOD! One of the best lamb chops I’ve ever had and the pasta was amazing too. Had the best date night :)

I appreciate the demand they have but made 7pm reservations and wasn’t seated until 7:45pm. You expect great food with that long of a wait plus the higher end price point and everyone’s meal was very mediocre. Good people and staff was doing their best but put in very difficult situation with the lack of organization. Was disappointed and will not be going back.

Great atmosphere. Friendly staff. Food and drinks are always on point.
