Formento's

Sunday gravy is a must. A big juicy meatball and links of fennel sausage are bathed in a magnificent meaty red sauce , and it's all spooned tableside over housemade pasta . Read more

600 bottle wine list , and excellent food to accompany the great selection. We recommend the relish tray , the meatballs and the rigatoni alla vodka & having the sommelier pair the perfect bottle

You have to try the Timpano, it is to-die-for. Quail Saltimbocca is absolutely exquisite. Fontina-Creamed Escarole is a Yasss! So is the calamari . Oh, and ALL THE DESSERTS! Great wine list !

What a great place! Just came for the second time and was even more impressed than the first! Had a large party and everyone loved it! It’s a must visit! The best food and first class service!

The Wedge Salad is dressed in a sweet vinaigrette & loaded with antipasti (salami , provolone , mortadella and pepperoncini ) this wedge salad marries fresh & hearty flavors in the most delicious way. Read more

What a great place! Came here for a friend's 40th and will definitely be back. The octopus is the best I've ever had and the wine selection is sure to impress. Highly recommend!

The sandwiches at Formento’s in Chicago — including a sub with salami , and mortadella , a ciabatta roll with zucchini , mozzarella , and pesto , and an eggplant Parmesan baguette — are oh so satisfying. Read more

Great cocktails , wines , food and service. Ordered the chicken , carbonara , mozzarella antipasti , and was given complementary calamari . Loved everything.

The Canestri with Sunday Gravy  is spaghetti , organic eggs , savory guanciale (cured pork ), with a kick of black pepper and Pecorino Romano . Read more

This place is amazing...you can't go wrong with the shrimp scampi ...and the Sunday gravy ...but try it all..I know I do ????

try the carbonara but get it to share with the table because it's so rich! And the chocolate cake is good (I don't generally like cake )

Overall a good place. I didn't love it but I'd go again. Items start around $18. Calamari is def a get. Meatballs are pretty great. My pasta dish was a miss.

The shrimp scampi is a splurge. The massive New Zealand langoustines will set you back $26 or so, but it’s a terrific product. Read more

Get the Grasshopper cocktail for dessert . Seriously. It has the flavor and consistency of melted mint chocolate chip ice cream . That's a good thing.

Fun retro ambiance and spectacular service. Check out the "Fifty Wines under $50" on the extensive wine list . Loved the relish tray .

Limited menu but great wine and champagne options. Perfect plates.....not your typical HUGE American portions. Neighborhood gem , but service can be a bit slow.

Happy hour at the bar and patio 4:30-6:30. Half price glasses of wine , half price antipasti . The best.

Impressive wine list , great fresh pasta , and I highly recommend the whole fish !

Some of the pasta servings were very small. Had meatballs and frito misto (calamari ) - both were good. Tiramisu was very dry and no liquor in it. Service seemed rushed.

The server and service were good, but they had didn't have a lot of patience pointing out their vegetarian options and they did have some on the menu. Just take time to read through it.

I don't know what supersedes the other, the food or the ambiance. Love this place!

Best pasta I've ever had. Tremendous service, great vibe.

Amazing pasta made from scratch & great service

The wine list is extremely diverse...it feels like I'm at home here

Tasty food, small portions, expensive . It all adds up!

Amazing food, atmosphere.

Excellent lamb

Pretty standard italian restaurants . Honestly, none of the dishes really stood out to me

Carbonara ????

The carbonara .

Nothing is good here . Just a good location, hip neighborhood but the food is awful and extremely pricey !

Food was terrific. Service was meh.
