What to Eat at Chicago’s Eataly? Taking Recommendations! 🍝🍷
My (Italian) boss says Eataly is very authentic, so we went for dinner and drinks — drinks being the highlight! Today’s Menu 🍽️ 🍹 Aperol Spritz / Persimmon Spritz Aperol Spritz is strong blood‑orange flavor — stir well or you’ll just get syrup! Persimmon spritz is lighter, with a subtle柿 (persimmon) note. Both are bubbly Prosecco‑based — great if you love fizz. 🦑 Calamari Fritti More cucumber than squid — fine as a bar snack, but not filling if you’re actually hungry. 🥟 Agnolotti del Plin First bite tasted like Chinese pork dumplings! Savory, almost homestyle, with Parmigiano balancing the saltiness. 🍄 Funghetta Pizza Mushroom‑topped thin‑crust pizza — crust is crisp yet tender, like a good烤饼 (kaobing). Flavor is mild — I’d prefer it more seasoned, but still enjoyable. Key Details 📍 🍴 Place: Eataly 📍 Address: 43 E Ohio St, Chicago, IL 60611 💰 Price: ~$40 per person. For dinner, it’s a bit pricey and portions are small — you’re better off at a dedicated Italian restaurant. But for drinks and a light bite, it’s perfect! What else do you recommend at Eataly?
