Food was good as always, I had the Italian Pot Roast and The House Salad Nice ambiance and athmosphere Busy as always Service was very good, my server was nice My only disappointment every time I come to Lettuce Restaurants is the Surcharge they charge ... for what ? Covid Time it's over You can ask your server to have it removed and they will take it off

Memorial Day Monday was also their special spaghetti and meatballs with bolognese, delicious and pretty crowed. We also had the whitefish which is also terrific. Some new items on the menu including shrimp scampi which we can't wait to try. I'm not issue was it was extremely cold in the restaurant everyone in the adjacent dining room was cold.

We come here all the time. I love so many of their dishes. Today we had the Caesar salad. Sliced Parmesan, crushed croutons, and nice mix of lettuces. We had the cavatelli with sausage ragu - swirl pasta, marinara sauce, sausage blended in with basil. It was recommended by our server. Definitely a 10! Prices are extremely reasonable. We sat on the deck, with a beautiful day, a perfect choice! We always love the service here. A great choice for lunch or dinner.

Very nice Italian wine bar in the Oak Brook shopping mall. We happened upon this restaurant during their Happy Hour which extends until 5 pm, and the timing made the visit even more worthwhile. While dinner can be pricey here, Happy Hour sells most of the common wine selections at half price - for example, Chianti for $8 per glass, instead of $16 ... so it can save you a lot. This is another of Rich Mellman's Lettuce Entertain You Enterprise restaurants. We have had great luck with Mellman's LEYE places, and this outlet was no exception. Our favorite LEYE Italian restaurant is Il Porcellino in River North in downtown Chicago, and this Antico Posto came close to being as good. One of us had the Salmon Vesuvio (a 4 star offering which had a nice Vesuvio sauce for the crispy potatoes, with the fish just a hair overdone) and the other in our party had the Spaghetti Bolognese (a 3 star offering but only because it paled a bit in comparison to the same dish at Il Porcellino; very nice spaghetti, but the dish missed because it needed more of the Bolognese). A few things need calling out: First, the crispy bread with olive oil and house-made giardiniera (a 5 star starter; didn't think I'd like it, but it really wakes up your taste buds ... and it comes with the meal so you don't have to pay extra for bread). Second, we shared the Tiramisu for dessert (another 5 star offering, mainly because its lush, and decadent, and not overpowering with the alcohol). So we had 5 star starters and enders. The only other call out is the 3% surcharge they tack on to your bill ... too bad they followed the herd and simply don't raise prices a bit across the board to crowd-source the difference. Just a slightly cheap thing for an otherwise classy place.

This is the type of restaurant you will love coming back to. I know it's in a mall center, but the moment you step inside, you're taken somewhere else altogether. Whereas The Olive Garden makes an attempt at transporting you to Italy, the veneer is too thing to be effective. At Antico Posto, everything feels as if it's been this way for years and years and is instantly comfortable. Every item on the menu will tantalize, and the smells that waft around will make it difficult to settle on just one dish. And the bread with olive oil and house-made gardiniera? Heaven-sent. If you're needing a break from shopping, or just an escape from the busy highways, bring yourself here. You will not be disappointed.

I have been to Antico Posto twice; once on a date night and once with our family of 6. It has been outstanding on both occasions!! It always seems to be busy so please consider a reservation in advance. Service has been wonderful both times and I've had a chance to try many of their dishes!! If you are looking for a great go-to Italian place, look no further. We love both the Brussels sprouts and calamari appetizers. And obviously the pasta is to die for! Definitely worth checking out, don't let the crowds scare you.

Came here for a birthday dinner with a friend and left feeling satisfied and full! We made a reservation beforehand and were seated right away upon our arrival. Since we marked we were celebrating a birthday, our table was set up with a cute happy birthday card, which is the first restaurant I've seen who has done this gesture! Overall, I thought the food was great and portions were fair. We ordered the Margherita pizza, linguini with shrimp, and the arugula salad. Out of all 3 dishes, my favorite was the pasta -- so so flavorful and appreciated how the shrimps were actually big! To top it off, we got a complimentary birthday dessert; brownie (I think it was at least lol) with vanilla ice cream to share! Great spot for small and large parties!

Part of the Lettuce Entertain Enterprise,this cozy Italian cafe is located in the Oakbrook Center . Came on a Saturday night for our Anniversary. Made reservations for 530pm and were seated immediately. Reservations are highly recommended. This place was hopping! Tables are very close to each other and they turn them around fast. The waitress was very helpful in explaining their daily specials and menu items. Prices are on the higher end. My wife is Gluten Free so they had a special menu. You start with fresh Italian bread and olive oil with giardiniera. They offered to bring a slice of gluten free bread but it never came. Nice selection of wine..only about 4 beers offered and various cocktails. A glass of wine averages about 14.00 and we did wait for our drinks to be served. Started with the grilled calamari with garlic and chili flakes served over arugula . A little chewy in our opinion. My wife ordered the whitefish with mashed potatoes and spinach with a herb butter sauce. Very good portions and flavorful. She asked for the sauce on the side but it came with it already on the fish. Also ordered the cavatelli with sausage in an Arrabbiata sauce which was a little spicey but very good. Again large portions. We finished the night with their homemade Turtle Gelato which was creamy and delicious. Surprised they didn't do anything special for our Anniversary but maybe going on a busy Saturday night was our mistake. Very crowded and seemed rush but the food was very good. They also do not let you redeem award dollars on Saturdays! Will go to another Lettuce Entertain You restaurant in the future to use our points but probably not back to Antico Posto.
