Since its doors opened in 1988, Gianni Delisi's
family-run Italian trattoria has flourished as a mainstay on the Chicago
restaurant scene. Trattoria Gianni's menu features a diverse selection
of regional Italian dishes, augmented with superb daily specials and
a delicious dessert menu. Gianni's boasts an extensive wine list,
a full bar and a great selection of grappas. The restaurant has been
awarded 3 stars from the Chicago Tribune, 3 1/2 stars from the Chicago
Sun Times and has consistently received excellent ratings from Zagats.
Located in the heart of the Lincoln Park theatre
district -- directly across the street from Steppenwolf theatre
and around the corner from Royal George -- Trattoria Gianni's has
long been a destination of theatregoers before and after the shows.
For those interested in the Chicago Blues scene, Trattoria Gianni's
is an easy walk from Kingston Mines and Blues Chicago. Given its
proximity to the theatres, a visit to Gianni's may include rubbing
elbows with the stars, as some of Gianni's regulars include John
Malkovich, Nicole Kidman, Gary Senise, John Cusak and Mayor Daley.

The exposed brick walls, white tablecloths, wood trim and floors
provide a rustic yet elegant atmosphere in which to enjoy
Gianni's fabulous Italian cuisine. The restaurant itself offers
a private dining room for up to 50 guests, and al fresco dining
(weather permitting). Trattoria Gianni's can accomodate private
parties of up to 100 by reserving the entire restaurant. If
you would like to reserve the private dining area or the entire
restaurant please call us at 312.266.1976.
"You
can save yourself the airfare of a trip to Venice, Italy,
because Trattoria Gianni on Halsted Street is far better than
its popular namesake overseas"
