With an open kitchen, a beautiful bar displaying colorful bottles of wine and spirits, exposed brick throughout the restaurant and water served in wine goblets, the impression when walking into the dining room at Nonna’s Italian Bistro is that you’re in for a first-class dining experience (with a food tab to match).
While the eatery does offer such Italian staples as chicken piccata and pappardelle Bolognese, the kitchen goes easy on the fancy platings — and the wallet — with several Chicago-style street-food options such as Italian beef sandwiches and gyros.
