Monteverde Restaurant & Pastificio Chicago Reviews
Excited to get a reservation for our wedding anniversary.
When we got to the restaurant, we immediately noticed the hostess lacking a welcoming personality. She showed us to our table for 2 and it felt so cramped. We politely asked to be moved and her face just showed it all, the impatience and annoyance. W

Great food and fun atmosphere
Loved the place! The food was delicious, the vibe was fun, and our waitress Maddy was super attentive. Quick service and good value for the money.

Finally snagged a reso here for my wedding anniversary! It took a village just to get this reservation on a Friday night at 7pm. Not sure why it's so hard to get one honestly, it didn't live up to the hype that was built up trying by to g
I'd go 3.
5 stars on this. Maybe my bar was too high given the hype. We got reservations two months ahead and couldn't wait. Came with two kids and they have a kids menu (wow!) Service was slow. They shared that it comes out as it's made which w
Amazing food and service during our visit.
The staff is so polite and our server was thoughtful in coursing out our order. The restaurant is lively and made for an enjoyable dinner experience.
Amazing experience at Monteverde! Great service, relaxed
Amazing experience at Monteverde! Great service, relaxed yet special vibe, and delicious family style plates. Only the tiramisu disappointed, but staff handled it wonderfully. Don't miss the burrata and ham appetizer!
One of our best dinners in Chicago!
We were staying in Chicago for 5 nights as my husband and a friend were running the Chicago marathon. We booked Monteverde for the night before the marathon and absolutely loved everything about it - firstly the location felt really neighbourhood and

The food here was amazing as always, one of my favorite Italian restaurants. First, we got the Njuda Arancini, which our server recommended we try. It didn't disappoint. It was like a fried ball with rice inside, super delicious. Our pastas c

Definitely close to a 5 star visit! Came here for a birthday celebration, and we were super grateful to have gotten a table reservation the day of (they usually book out weeks in advance!). The menu was varied, but we oddly had a hard time picking
It had been almost five years since I'd last had Monteverde
It had been almost five years since I'd last had Monteverde and I think it's even better now. We secured a reservation by compromising and eating dinner at 4:30pm (lol) but it was worth it. Every pasta was amazing - no notes. The crostino a
Monteverde's pasta is easily one of the best in the city.
The vibe is upscale and feels special -- the perfect spot to unwind with amazing food and drinks. I particularly went during happy hour and was very pleased. The happy hour wagyu beef skewer was unreal -- melt-in-your-mouth tender with just the rig
The burrata appetizer was great and the pesto gnocchi pasta
The burrata appetizer was great and the pesto gnocchi pasta was fantastic. The server was very friendly and overall my first time at Monteverde was a positive experience. I'll definitely come back.
I had the Steel Cosmo for a cocktail.
I find it so difficult to really like cocktails found on restaurant menus. This was okay but didn't really appeal to me. The Wagyu Beef Skewer although tiny was delicious. When you tried to grab onto one end it unfolded like an accordion. Sa

Recently moved to the West Loop, and this was one of the most highly recommended restaurants. When I looked at the menu, I was expecting to be disappointed--no pasta can be worth that amount of $$. But I was wrong and it was indeed worth every penny!

Was really exited to eat here.
There is a really cool seat at the bar where you can watch them make pasta and the people are nice, so it's got that going for it. Amazing meatball. Couldn't eat the pasta. It's well made but both dishes were swayed from what we wanted

Incredible food! It was a great atmosphere to welcome friends and family in Chicago. They were super impressed by the food and drinks (as were we). It was our second time there and we'll keep going back.

Wok fried arrabiata was amazing! Cacio pepe was amazing! Watermelon salad was great.Rose provided excellent service! Prices for food are extraordinarily reasonable. Best meal we had during our long weekend vacation in Chicago.
The place is well knows as the best pasta in the city.
..homemade pasta with Top Chef chefs. The waiter was great. The pasta entrees were sensational but not a lot of food. The $38 ham appetizer had more food but it was so big we wrapped it up then were hungry after the entrees. The dessert menu was unin
This was an excellent place with excellent service.
Sat on the patio which provided a really great ambiance. Drink selection and apps were great. Salads and pasta dishes were clearly a must. Favorites were the burrata and the mushroom/sausage pasta.

Excellently prepared food that's clearly made with care and thoughtfulness. Monteverde is a lovely modern restaurant. Service was excellent with good wine pairing recommendations. Prices are reasonable to slightly high compared to other Italia
Good but not extraordinary.
We decided to have lunch there after reading all the good reviews. I tried several times to book, and this time it was the right one. We were eager to go. The restaurant is very noisy. We had two sharing plates, all small. The burrata with ham, the a
A meal to remember!
A truly memorable meal! We started with drinks and the arancini, which were perfect - followed by salad and the gnocchetti con pesto. All of the ingredients played so beautifully together, and no one flavor overwhelmed the dish. We had the butterscot

LOVE IT
Third time here. Meatball ravioli was fantastic and going in my to ten list. Cacio Pepe was bland and not distinctive. Great service, tough reservation.
Great food, great service, great experience
I went with my wife for lunch. We were seated promptly, treated to delicious food in a friendly and professional manner, and the atmosphere was enjoyable. You could see folks making pasta by hand in the main room of the restaurant. Most importantly,
Super Yummy!
Outstanding food and service! We had a variety of appetizers and entrees, the gnocchi and meat entrees were amazing. We also ordered dessert and variety of cocktails, everything was delicious.
A Consistently Outstanding Italian Experience
Monteverde consistently impresses on every front, from the drinks to the dining experience. I kicked off lunch with a perfectly spiced Bloody Mary, followed by a glass of the Beconcini Chianti Reserve—a stellar pairing for what was to come. For lun
Best Italian food in Chicago
Best Italian in all of Chicago - subtle but flavorful, with unexpected twists and layers. Everything is fantastic but the pasta is the star.
One of my few 5 star ratings.
Five of us came here for lunch. Our reservation got us a table in front of the pasta TV. We got to watch them make the fresh pastas. It was amazing how thin they rolled out the pasta sheets. We were all in awe. The service was immediate, Johnny se
Exceptional experience.
Great-tasting authentic Italian food with superb service. After watching Somebody Feed Phil, we decided to visit the same place and weren't disappointed. Definitely going back the next time we're in Chicago.

Everything was amazing.
We got a table inside near the area where they make the pasta and you can watch them through a big mirror which is really cool. The service was perfect with people refilling our drinks and making sure we were good. The food was also incredible. It wa

I've never eaten a scallop dish and then thought, "the scallops were unnecessary." Sure, the scallops were large and perfectly cooked, but the rest of the dish was not taking a back seat. There is a cheffy focus on each thing that makes it
Snacks were ok but all main courses and pastas were amazing.
Loved that you could see the pastas being made, definitely made it feel special .
Service and food were spectacular.
Get a reservation, and eat this pasta. Fabulous! The chef was kind enough to pose for a picture as well.
Some of the best pasta I've had in my life.
Little pricy but well worth the money with amazing quality and good portion sizes. The service was very helpful with recommending dishes and brought out the plates at a good pace.
Outstanding food, but very loud
Fantastic food and service. I had the Texas Redfish with tahini, zucchini, fruit and chili crisp, which was exceptionally delicious. The pappardelle with lamb sugo was also superb, as was the tiramisu for dessert. The only drawbacks were that it w
Great Chicago Restaurant
Monteverde is one of our favorites in Chicago. The burrata and ham plate is outstanding, cocktails are tasty, and we will get back soon to try the Ragu. Also don't sleep on dessert, the chocolate sorbet with a forgotten cookie is a perfect finish.
Another Outstanding Meal
When we come back to Chicago we try to include this restaurant while there. We had special surprise birthday, and they accommodated a group of 14. The pre-fix menu they served up was out of this world. Service excellent. You really should try this

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Monteverde Restaurant & Pastificio Chicago at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Monteverde Restaurant & Pastificio Chicago page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $5.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $5.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* EternalAnt36, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $5 bid.
* EternalAnt36 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to EternalAnt36 for any questions Peter may have as EternalAnt36 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* EternalAnt36 now uses their connections at Monteverde Restaurant & Pastificio Chicago to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If EternalAnt36 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, EternalAnt36 receives the $5 reward which is credited to EternalAnt36's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Monteverde Restaurant & Pastificio Chicago!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
