Walking into orso's is like walking into another century. In the front they have a gorgeous long vintage dark wooden Bar with an extensive selection of liquor. The main floor dining area is intimate and dimly lit, but has exquisite chandeliers. You can almost picture some of Chicago's old mobsters sitting next to you In the dining area. There is a gorgeous piano in the back of the first floor dining room, which was not being used, unfortunately, while we were there. I found it kind of strange, when I asked the employee standing next to the piano when someone would be playing it, he snidely replied I don't know. We were there on a Thursday night and I hope they have someone playing on the weekends. Went to an event in the patio, which considering it was December, was closed and well heated. It was wonderfully decorated for the holidays and was a great atmosphere for a party! There is a separate bar on the patio, and this a great place to have an event. I'm really looking forward to returning here in warmer weather, and enjoying the patio being open on a nice day. Unfortunately, we only had pizza and wine that day. Thin crust cheese, vegetarian, and pepperoni, which was good, not great I did not get to experience more off of the extensive menu. We will plan a return visit here to try more of the food and soak in the old world decor.

Absolutely delicious food and wonderful service. We were in a bit of a rush, and they made sure our foods was our quickly and that we had our check immediately so that we could just enjoy our meal. I can't wait to go back.

The pasta is tasty and the pianist on a Saturday night was a nice touch. However the prices are a little high and I prefer pizza from elsewhere.

A great vibe in this restaurant. Always seems to be teeming with people and just feels warm and friendly. The food is good. Service is fine. Good value wine carafe. Will return.

Long due review, but better late than never. GREAT place, DELICIOUS food and EXCELLENT service! I had a little reception after my weeding (07/28) in the patio area and my friends, my husband and I had a wonderful time. Kyle took great care of us and DEFINITELY recommend this restaurant, specially if Kyle is your waiter. FIVE STARS!
