3.5 rating We came for restaurant week, but the Gnudi, which had been on the menu for the Choose Chicago website, was not on the menu when we arrived. Our server could have cared less. The free bread was the highlight of our meal. Presentation of the meatballs for restaurant week was definitely overlooked. Both the sausage and meatball dish were good, albeit nothing remarkable. Wild Boar pasta was the least favorite. Although the pasta aspect was perfect texture and consistency, the ragu was so over-peppered we had to ask for cheese to calm the seasonings. Dishes were reasonably priced for handmade food, but flavors from the pasta dish left something to be desired. Customer service was fair, but if you arrive early or have to wait for your table, be ready to awkwardly wait near patrons eating.
Cozy. Elevated Tuscan Italian in a casual atmosphere. Perfect unpretentious date night spot or with a group 6 or less. Service was attentive. Whole table gave this a “home run”. Can’t go wrong with fresh pasta! Next time would like to try the seafood options.
Cute little local Italian restaurant. Fair prices and great fresh quality pasta. Awesome customer service and ambiance. The starter bread roll is amazing! The shrimp Alfredo was perfect with a light sauce and fairly good sized prawns. The brown butter honey ravioli was delicious. However, I would recommend the brown butter honey ravioli as either an appetizer or a plate to share, having it as just an entre, the flavor can get boring very quickly. Overall great experience and I would definitely recommend.
This place puts a lot of thought into their menu. The extra effort by the chef to use the best and more difficult ingredients to procure make this place a gem of an italian restaurant. The gnudi is a generous helping of ricotta stuffed balls in brown butter sage. A much lighter fare than gnocci. The carbonara is made with guanciale pork cheek rather than pancetta pork belly which added a higher fat content but was more buttery and tender texture to the traditional dish. Lastly, the dine-in complimentary signature bread is amazing!! Its a garlic bread with marscapone cheese which gave it a creamier base with the crunchy toast of the bread. And the price point for these unique takes on italian fare is at or better than other Bib Gourmand rated places. The portions will not disappoint. I cannot wait to try their other menu items. The staff is very friendly and worth the dine-in experience.
we are BACK at Gussie’s despite Reem getting food poisoning. the brown butter ravioli would have been DELICIOUS if it didn’t have the brown butter . my dish spaghetti w heirloom cherry tomatoes was fab and quite refreshing. reem got the fettuccine alfredo. this was the highlight of the table for me - i did not except it to be THAT delicious. i’m not typically a cream sauce girl due to my dairy intolerance but this was lovely. fataytay got the parpadelle which was ok but nothing special• • overall, very delicious ! would go back def for the bread not pictured bc i forgot and for the passtuh. will reem get food poisoning this time??? only time will tell!!! #laiëboys
Amazing Italian food. Started off the meal with the best espresso martini I’ve ever had not pictured. They serve the most delicious, warm cheesy bread to start off the meal. For dinner, had the carbonara and the sausage appetizer. Was told the sausage was handmade and it tasted like it! Absolutely INCREDIBLE. And it was right across the street from Second City, very convenient for seeing a show after. The waitstaff was super friendly and attentive. Great, clean atmosphere. Will definitely be going back.
We were led here from reviews of the previous restaurant, which is no longer here. The food was well prepared, but not overly amazing. However the pre-meal bread was stuffed with cream cheese and frankly saved the rest of the meal. I would probably go back just for that bread and give it another chance.Dine in: YesOutdoor seating: YesTakeout: YesCurbside pickup: Yes
The service was great. The starter complimentary garlic bread was fantastic! I honestly was not able to tell if my pasta dish however was undercooked or that’s how they cook it. Flavor wise was a bit bland for me. But still a nice place
Beautiful Spot to celebrate our 39th Anniversary! Beautiful food, wonderful service, just the perfect amount of everything to make us fall in Love with Gussie’s We will be back soon! Ps…Did I mention that the garlic bread is like visiting heaven with the first bite! xo
Great atmosphere, lovely food — recommend ordering family-style so you can share a bit of everything! Don’t miss the espresso martinis
