Chicago Outlet & Airport Area | Italian Restaurant Recommendation 🍝✈️
Name: Carmine's Rosemont Located next to the Hilton hotel of the same name—you can see the outlets but there’s a highway in between, so driving is needed. Walk-ins are fine in the afternoon (no 2 PM closure issue!). 🍤 Zuppe De Pesce SP – Huge seafood pasta, not on the regular menu (first item on the specials list). $65, great for sharing—tons of seafood, but the pasta was a bit too al dente for me. Decent but not a must. 🍅 Pappardelle (Square Noodles with Tomato Sauce) – SOOOO GOOD 😋 I love tangy flavors, and this hit the spot! It’s the first pasta on the menu. 🦀 Crab Cake – Just an appetizer we picked randomly—okay but not amazing. 🍖 Short Rib – Also off-menu (ask for recommendations!). Really tender and flavorful. 🍰 Desserts: Tiramisu & Pistachio Gelato – Both delicious, huge portions, and surprisingly affordable! 💰 Per person: ~$75 If you’re near the outlets and unsure where to eat, this is a solid choice! #StudyAbroad #Chicago #ItalianFood #USA #OutletEats #AirportFood #ChicagoRestaurants
