I recently had the pleasure of dining at The Italian Homemade Company in Chicago, and I must say, it was an outstanding experience. The authenticity and quality of the food immediately transported me to Italy. Crafted by three talented Italian chefs, every dish showcased the true flavors of traditional Italian home cooking. The meatballs, pasta, and sauces were all exceptional rich, flavorful, and clearly made with the freshest ingredients. Each bite reflected a deep respect for authentic culinary traditions. To complete the perfect Italian meal, a shot of Italian grappa added the final touch, offering a true taste of Italy in every sense. If you are in the area and seeking a genuine Italian dining experience, The Italian Homemade Company is an absolute must-visit. Exceptional food, and heartfelt craftsmanship await you.

This was such a cute experience. Atmosphere: ambience is on point. It had part to do with my beautiful and intelligent company. That’s for a different review though. The other major portion of it was the setting of the restaurant. The atmosphere was quiet they were cleaning everything, it was already clean. It smelled fresh, not overloaded with cleaning products, but just to fragrance reassure me that I’m eating off of clean dishes. The restaurant looks like it was recently renovated into this new space. It fit really well. I loved the interior decor. The way the tables were set up the full bar. Everything was in place and a place for everything. Loved the interiors and the colors. Service: The service was great. Lucky for my party we happened upon one of the floor managers or general owners. He did everything in his power to make sure we had thought of every option for food or asked us any questions. Any questions about the food before ordering anything then came to check on us to make sure that the food tasted good a few times. Food: He even recommended that we try an additional dish, but we already had full stomachs. My friend had dietary restrictions and was still able to eat a healthy plate so there are plenty of options. I myself had the red Bolognese pasta, delightful. I can’t say this location is kid friendly as I don’t have crotch trolls to take places. I will say it’s accessible from the streetscape. There is a large amount of parking on Fulton Street depending on the time that you enter. Final note for now is I didn’t get enough pictures or food so I will be back.

My friends and I took a pasta making class at The Italian Homemade Company, and it was such a fun experience! Alberto was our instructor and he did an awesome job showing us how to make different types of pasta and gnocchi. He made everything easy to follow and fun to learn. I actually feel confident now making pasta at home! After the class, we got to enjoy a delicious dinner and drinks. Everything we tried was so good! I’d definitely come back and 100% recommend taking a class with Alberto if you’re thinking about it. It’s a great way to spend time with friends, learn something new, and eat some delicious food.

Fantastic Italian food - absolutely the best Italian in Chicago. Their piadina is exactly as you would get it in Italy; the lasagna is a perfect melding of flavors, with delicious bolognese and bechamelle sauce. Great service & atmosphere. We will be back!

Title: A Delightful Pasta-Making Adventure I recently had the pleasure of attending a pasta-making class led by the talented Alberto, and it was an experience I won't soon forget. From the moment we walked into the clean, inviting atmosphere, I felt welcomed and ready to learn. Alberto's passion for pasta was evident as he guided us through the process of making different shapes and using various machines and tools. The side-by-side examples he provided were incredibly helpful, ensuring that we all understood each step. It was fascinating to see how different techniques created unique textures and flavors, and we felt empowered to try them ourselves. The class was not only educational but also fun and engaging. Sharing the experience with friends made it even more memorable, as we laughed and worked together to create our masterpieces. Word of advice, get the lasagna! To top it off, the drinks served were flavorful and complemented the meal perfectly. If you’re looking for a unique outing with friends that combines learning, creativity, and great food, this pasta-making class is the perfect choice. Highly recommended!

Delicious!! This is a wonderful gem in the West Loop with vibrant, freshly-made Italian dishes and and a good selection of beer, wine, and house cocktails. It's an easy and fun place to relax and enjoy a meal. The service was fast, order at the counter and folks stop by your table to help with anything needed. Looking forward to going back soon.
