​​🇺🇸 Chicago's Italian Hidden Gem That Outshines Volare​​

📍 ​​Nonnina​​ 340 N Clark St, Chicago, IL 60654 Volare may be the hot spot (with reservations needed weeks ahead), but ​​Nonnina is the real MVP​​—better flavors, better vibes, and way less pretentious! 🥖 ​​Bread Service​​ Comes with balsamic & olive oil. The bread was soft (not warm, sadly), but hey—it's free! ​​Don't fill up​​ though—portions here are ​​massive​​. 🍞😅 🦑 ​​Fritto Misto​​ Crispy calamari, shrimp, and zucchini fries with ​​zingy lemon slices​​ to cut through the richness. That ​​herby green sauce​​? ​​Addictive.​​ 🍤✨ 🧀 ​​Chicken Parmesan​​ A ​​comfort food masterpiece​​—tender fried chicken smothered in molten mozzarella, served with tangy tomato pasta. The acidity balances the cheesiness perfectly. 🍝🐔💥 🦞 ​​Lobster Pasta (Squid Ink Tagliolini)​​ ​​THE STAR OF THE SHOW​​ 🌟! Loaded with lobster, shrimp, roasted peppers, tomatoes, and arugula. Unlike Volare’s one-note squid ink pasta, this one has ​​layers​​—briny seafood, sweet peppers, and just a hint of tomato. ​​Order this or regret forever.​​ 🍝🦞🔥 We grossly overordered (three dishes for two people = next-day leftovers), but ​​zero regrets​​. Nonnina delivers ​​bold, balanced Italian​​ without the hype—just pure deliciousness. #100PlacesToEat #NonninaChicago #ChicagoEats #ItalianFood #ChicagoFoodie #DateNightSpot #ChicagoRestaurants #HiddenGems #FoodieAdventure
