Chicago Restaurant Week Countdown: 2 Days Left 🚨 Petterinos

Petterinos — a classic Italian restaurant in downtown Chicago 🇮🇹 The $60 Restaurant Week dinner here can be summed up as: huge portions, totally filling, and actually delicious! Four courses include: Appetizer + Pasta + Main + Dessert, with 2–3 options per course — perfect for sharing if you're dining with two or more people! 📋 Recommendations: 🍤 Appetizer: Grilled Jumbo Shrimp — firm, bouncy, and flavorful. The signature beef meatballs are also solid, served in a classic tomato marinara. 🍝 Pasta: The Spicy Seafood Linguine is a must-try — perfectly cooked flat pasta soaked in savory sauce with a generous mix of fresh seafood 👍 Skip the Short Rib Pasta — pretty standard tomato sauce with a slightly strong meaty taste. 🐟 Main: Branzino (Mediterranean Sea Bass) — good quality, served with refreshing celery and carrot-based sauces. 🥩 Also tried the New York Strip Steak (medium-rare) — cooked perfectly with a touch of pink, great quality for no extra charge. High value! 🍧 Dessert: Giant Tiramisu is a must-order! Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream was just okay. Plenty of reservations available — with just 2 days left, it’s a great last-minute choice for good value! 📍 Location: 150 N Dearborn St, Chicago, IL 60601 🏛️ Super central, cozy retro vibe, friendly service. Only small downside: courses came out very quickly — felt a bit rushed through the meal. #ChicagoRestaurantWeek #ChicagoItalian #Petterinos #GreatValue #ChicagoEats 🍝
