We moved to Bensenville, just a few blocks from Mamma Maria's, and we went there recently. We'll definitely be going back. This is a classic Italian family-run place, not a chain. We got lasagna and eggplant parm and loved them both. The service is friendly and efficient but without making you feel rushed -- even though it was a Friday night.

Christy's is an adorable local diner in Wood Dale. Upon entering, we were greeted by head of the restaurant, and a waitress immediately got us a table. She was very kind, helpful, and polite, as were the other waiters and waitresses, who made sure the coffe mugs were always full. I ordered a ham and American cheese omelet and pancakes on the side. The omelet was delicious, and not overly greasy. The pancakes were good too, and had there own sweet flavor I knew I could only taste in Christy's. My omelet came with hash browns, which were absolutely irresistible. The bathrooms were very clean and nice. All in all, I loved the homey diner feel of Christy's, and the amazing food. It was a bit difficult to get to the restaurant due to construction, but not overly difficult if you have a phone GPS. Christy's was a good start to the day!

Ok first time here. I was not expecting a real diners look. Hard to decide what to eat it all sounds good so went with the Italian beef and fries. Good flavor on the beef had spicy peppers with it, the fries are the old fashion kind and nice and crispy. Overall was very good. I will go back

I never mind an Old School Italian eatery as after I moved from Chicago I have rarely got to experience this kind of nostalgic type of dining. I was ready for some carb overload so I ordered the campanelle pasta, but instead of shrimp, I asked for chicken. Why? Living in SC, where we get these crustaceans fresh from local waters minutes after being harvested, I didn’t dare order them here. The pasta came with fresh spinach in a tomato chive cream sauce.
The dish certainly had potential but in the end it was just too heavy. Italians never drown their pasta in sauce, but know how to expertly dress the noodles to reach the right balance. This dish suffered from too much liquid and as a result became a mish mash rather than a coherent symphony of ingredients. The pasta became gummy and eventually completely unappetizing. Would we return? Doubtful.

I stopped here after I flew into O'Hare since its so close to the airport. I wanted to buy a Swedish Flop but I got there too late and they were already gone. But don't worry, there were so many yummy treats there, I had plenty more to choose from. I bought several different kinds of fruit-filled sweet rolls, a few donuts and some kolaches. I'll be back some other time for more. Best bakery I've been to in about 20 years.

Enjoyed a fantastic evening at Gibson's with six co-workers. We started out as "that group" when two of our party ordered non-traditional, not-on-the-menu cocktails; both our waiter and the bartender rolled with it, and came up with fantastic options! Of course the steaks were out of this world amazing, and importantly, all served exactly to the temperature requested!! Sides were delicious, especially the brussel sprouts and mashed potatoes. Desserts--"as big as your head"--seriously! Great service, great food, great cocktails, great desserts--all add up to a fantastic evening!

De Campana is our go to sit down Mexican restaurant. Its small, personal with great service and delicious food. We're not crazy about the outdoor seating area as it is not closed off and really has no atmosphere so we seldom use it but the inside is very comfortable.
