Lovely, local Italian dining with a vibrant, cozy decor. Delicious homemade pastas. Good variety of menu items. Attentive service. Both indoor and outdoor seating available. Love the brussel sprouts. On occasion we find a dish slightly saltier than our preference but the depth and complexity of flavors are excellent.

We came here on Monday for dinner and I was surprised by how bustling the place was. Despite having a reservation, we still waited for 20 minutes for our table. The food was quite delightful. We ordered Brussels Sprouts, carbonara, and a pizza. Each dish had an interesting blend of flavors that tasted good. The outdoor patio offers a lovely view overlooking the downtown train station.

Passero is a spot where making reservations, whether for a weekend or weekday dinner, is a smart move. The ambiance inside is stunning, beautifully decorated, and inviting. Now, onto the dishes—the Brussels sprouts without bacon unfortunately missed the mark; they weren't cooked thoroughly and had an overload of honey. However, on a brighter note, the fries were a winner! I mean, who can go wrong with delicious fries, right? The fusilli was the real star here—a truly delicious pasta dish! Pro tip: ask for extra Parmesan to elevate the flavors—it's a yummy feast! Overall, Passero offers a beautiful setting and some tasty highlights, like the fantastic fries and mouthwatering fusilli. Just a heads-up, though: the Brussels sprouts might need a bit of improvement. But all in all, a pleasant dining experience is worth a reservation.

Simply incredible! The best food I have had in the Chicagoland area! The servers were hospitable and very charismatic. The food presentation was top-notch. And the atmosphere was amazing! I highly recommend making Passero one of your dining destinations.

My overall grade for Passero is: A- I came here for lunch. I will return for dinner. Ordered fried calamari- delicious & perfectly cooked. Nice sauce that comes with. I almost never order cheeseburgers, but my friend Jay insisted that their burgers are great. So, I ordered one with bacon. I gotta say, really, really good cheeseburger. This facility used to be a California Pizza Kitchen, and they kept the pizza oven. I will also return to try the pizza. Beer selection was probably good for beer lovers. Mine was good. All-in-all, good selection for lunch. Parking is not readily available very close by. There is an underground lot about 100 yards away.

The service is excellent and the food is awesome. Pictured here are the arancini balls and Loretta's salad with shrimp added on. Drinks are also amazing, with several delicious alcohol-free options. 🥰

Absolutely delicious, beautiful setting. Can get a little noisy but well worth it! Pictures are of the arancini, whipped ricotta, and tartufo pizza. Yes, we had carbs with cheese the whole night!

I have been coming Passero for the past few months after some yoga friends were raving about the Loretta's chopped salad. This restaurant is always busy and has a beautiful ambiance. Yesterday after yoga, my mom and I walked over. We ordered the mussels and a Loretta's chopped. The mussels sat in a spicy marinara sauce with pepperoni. It was great! Of course our salads were wonderful! Loved the Christmas decorations as well! ***I wanted to give a shout out to Raul, our waiter! Super nice guy and very friendly!*** We will return!
