DeMarco's Italian Ristorante might be the best Italian meal l've ever had. Everything from start to finish was incredible. The bread was fresh and flavorful, the mozzarella was unbelievably good, and the veal was cooked perfectly. even discovered a new beer loved while was there. Great atmosphere, attentive staff, and food that seriously stands out. be coming back for sure.

With so many excellent Italian restaurants in the area, there is no reason to ever go back to DeMarco's. Oddly, the restaurant ran out of wine glasses! We ordered a bottle of wine which our server brought to the table along with four wet, dirty wine glasses - as if the glasses had been quickly rinsed. They were full of lipstick stains and hand prints. We waited 15 minutes and still no wine glasses. I went to the bar and asked the bartender for 4 short glasses. He told me he'd get them in a minute, then ignored me, as he continued to make drinks. I finally told him to forget it and walked away after standing at the empty bar for 5 minutes. Another 10 minutes later our server brought 4 clean, very warm glasses. So we added ice to them and poured our wine. Food was mediocre. Server was pleasant. No ambiance at all. Felt like we were in an inexpensive diner; yet an appetizer order of fried calamari is priced at over $18. Pasta was overcooked and mushy. Eggplant Parmesan tasted like it had come out of the freezer. Disappointing overall.

Stopped in today for lunch, had meatballs and bruschetta for apps and the tortellini Al Sugo for a main. All of it was amazing, but the Al sugo was superb, huge portion but I found myself trying to get in every bite. I’ll definitely be back to try the rest of the menu.

I had an amazing experience at DiMarco’s! A special thank you to our server, Mario — he was incredibly friendly, always had a smile on his face, and paid close attention to every detail. His recommendations were spot on, and thanks to him we enjoyed some of the best dishes we have ever had.
The grilled octopus was perfectly seasoned and unbelievably tender — truly to die for. We also tried the Wailey fish, which was so fresh, and my client tried the four-cheese ravioli, bursting with rich flavor.
Overall, this was a fantastic five-star dining experience. Huge thanks again to Mario for making it so memorable. I’ll definitely be returning very soon!

I've lived in the western suburbs for decades and I've eaten at A LOT of Italian restaurants over the years. In all this time, I have yet to find a local Italian eatery to rival DeMarco's. The food is always top notch. They serve my all-time favorite chicken parm and lasagna. Like many other Italian restaurants (looking at you Dimaggio's), the portions are ridiculously generous, well worth the price. Cannot recommend highly enough. Comfort food at its finest.

First time visiting, calamari was excellent, as well as the deserts, particularly with the bread pudding. Service was excellent, and very professional.
We will definitely be returning.
