点评:The moment I walked in the front door of Olio E Piu and was taken aback by the Mediterranean decor, soaring ceilings, lime-washed walls, rustic Italian aesthetics, fresh greenery, floral motifs, large windows, antique chandeliers, vintage Italian posters and artwork, patio, custom pewter topped bar and open kitchen. All 5,172 square feet of it. I was immediately reminded of the Como Inn, another classic Italian restaurant that was a Chicago tradition from 1924 to 2001. Located at 445 North Dearborn Street, in the bustling River North neighborhood, Olio E Piu has been a go-to destination since it opened in 2023 under the guidance of executive chef Danilo Gelati. It offers authentic trattoria cuisine based on classic Italian dishes with a focus on house-made pastas, hand-stretched pizza, Caprese salad and tiramisu. Open from 11 to 11 Monday through Saturday and 11 to 10 on Sunday, Olio E Piu is one of the most distinguished Italian restaurants in a city that seems to have an outstanding ristorante on every block. I started with a bowl of minestrone, bruschetta with bread crostini, bunta cream, tomato and basil and Caesar salad with Romaine lettuce, parmigiano and rosemary croutons. For my entree, I chose Branzino, the meaty and tasty Mediterranean sea bass,with cherry tomatoes, garlic, white wine, basil, sliced potatoes and sauteed broccoli. If you haven't been acquainted with Branzino yet, I encourage you to get an introduction. For dessert, I had cannoli served with chocolate sauce. A thoroughly enjoyable fine dining experience.
翻译:当我走进 Olio E Piu 的前门时,我被地中海风格的装饰所震撼,高耸的天花板、石灰粉刷的墙壁、质朴的意大利美学、新鲜的绿色植物、花卉图案、大窗户、古董吊灯、复古的意大利海报和艺术品、露台、定制锡制吧台和开放式厨房。全部 5,172 平方英尺。我立刻想起了 Como Inn,另一家经典的意大利餐厅,从 1924 年到 2001 年一直是芝加哥的传统。Olio E Piu 位于繁华的河北岸街区北迪尔伯恩街 445 号,自 2023 年在行政主厨 Danilo Gelati 的指导下开业以来,一直是人们的必去之地。它提供以经典意大利菜肴为基础的正宗小餐馆美食,重点是自制意大利面、手工披萨、卡普雷塞沙拉和提拉米苏。 Olio E Piu 餐厅营业时间为周一至周六上午 11 点至晚上 11 点,周日上午 11 点至晚上 10 点。这家餐厅是这座城市最负盛名的意大利餐厅之一,而这座城市似乎每个街区都有一家出色的餐厅。我点了一碗蔬菜通心粉汤、一份意式烤面包配烤面包片、红奶油、番茄和罗勒,以及一份凯撒沙拉,配以罗马生菜、帕玛森干酪和迷迭香面包丁。我的主菜是 Branzino,一条肉质鲜美的地中海鲈鱼,搭配樱桃番茄、大蒜、白葡萄酒、罗勒、土豆片和炒西兰花。如果你还没听说过 Branzino,我建议你去了解一下。甜点则是奶油甜馅煎饼卷配巧克力酱。这绝对是一次令人愉悦的精致用餐体验。
