id=\"Quartino_River_Norths_Eternal_Italian_Evening\"><\/span>Quartino: River North&#8217;s Eternal Italian Evening<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Every city needs one room where the evening simply works: wine arrives in little carafes, plates keep landing in the middle of the table, and nobody checks the time. In Chicago that room is Quartino \u2014 two floors of clatter, candlelight and conversation that have anchored River North nights for two decades.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Concept\"><\/span>The Concept<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Gibsons Restaurant Group \u2014 the people behind the city&#8217;s famous steakhouse \u2014 opened Quartino in 2005 as its love letter to the Italian neighborhood trattoria. Chef John Coletta, who spent childhood summers in central and southern Italy, built a shared-plates menu around regional traditions, and the restaurant carries the Ospitalit\u00e0 Italiana seal awarded by the Italian government. The name is the point: wine here is poured by the quartino, the friendly quarter-liter carafe that keeps the table topped up without committing to a bottle.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_to_Order\"><\/span>What to Order<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Creamy burrata with roasted beets, polenta fries with red pepper salsa, and a Neapolitan pizza blistered in the stone hearth make an easy opening trio. The short rib pasta is comfort in a bowl, the organic veal skirt steak the quiet showpiece. End with tiramisu \u2014 or a sgroppino, the lemon-sorbet-and-prosecco whip that doubles as dessert and nightcap.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Space\"><\/span>The Space<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Pressed-tin ceilings, salvaged subway tile, softly fogged vintage mirrors and cured meats hanging over the salumeria counter \u2014 the whole room feels borrowed from another era. It buzzes: expect a happy roar rather than hush, plus coveted sidewalk tables when Chicago finally warms up.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Who_Its_For\"><\/span>Who It&#8217;s For<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Big birthday tables, after-work groups, pre-theater dinners and the late crowd drifting in after a show \u2014 the kitchen outlasts nearly everyone downtown.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Good_to_Know\"><\/span>Good to Know<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Can it handle a large group?<\/strong> Yes \u2014 shared plates and private dining rooms make it one of downtown&#8217;s easiest group bookings.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Is it kid-friendly?<\/strong> Very: pizza, pasta and an early-evening bustle that swallows any noise a child can produce.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What&#8217;s the dress code?<\/strong> None to speak of \u2014 jeans sit next to date-night outfits without friction.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Late-night dinner possible?<\/strong> The full menu runs past midnight daily, making it the classic after-event landing spot.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Can I take wine home?<\/strong> Yes, there&#8217;s a wine-to-go selection from small Italian estates.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\"
