Si parla Italiano! 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 theater district — directly across the street from Steppenwolf theater and around the corner from Royal George — Trattoria Gianni’s has long been a destination of theatergoers before and after the shows.
