Chicago Trattoria is a modern Italian café serving original Italian cuisine, pizza and weekend brunch. Here you can enjoy some good Italian cuisine during lunch or dinner. At Chicago Trattoria, they make their pizza in an authentic Valoriani pizza oven and only the best ingredients are used to top the pizzas and pasta.
Chicago's menu is very expanded - from antipasti to salads and from pasta to of course a very wide range of pizzas. Other than that, Chicago offers many delicious cocktails, mocktails and desserts. Chicago also offers many vegetarian options.
My favourite pizza is the Pizza Parma; for pasta, I would recommend the Pappardelle al Pomodoro. If you want to try a real Belgian beer while visiting, I would recommend you try the Leopold blond beer.
Chicago offers a cosy ambience and also has a very nice terrace to sit outside when the weather permits! This is an affordable place with good quality food and generous portions. On top of that, you will be served by polite, cheerful staff!
Oh and by the way, within walking distance from Chicago Trattoria you'll find Chicago Café, an all-day brunch bar that will never disappoint you!
