Best Contemporary Italian Restaurants in Near Southside

Superior experience. Dined outside on a cool evening with heaters! Food was delicious and Drew our server was stellar. A hospitality pro! Thank you

Had a lovely birthday dinner for our son here last night.

Everything Duro Hospitality does is a hit, and The Charles is no exception! The service was impeccable, the drinks were top notch, and the food was delectable! We had a large party and showed up to the back bar an hour before for pre dinner drinks and they were so accommodating to take care of us and always kept us informed of the table. They treated the birthday guest to an amazing glass of champagne, and made the whole experience amazing. Charles was our server and he was great! Nate the Manager on duty as well as his whole staff was absolutely amazing. We will be back so many more times, and I am so happy that Duro has this gem in their repertoire!

I had an absolutely wonderful dining experience at Radici From the moment I walked in, the ambiance was warm and inviting, with just the right lighting and decor. The staff were incredibly attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable, making excellent recommendations from the menu. The food was outstanding—each dish was a perfect blend of flavors, beautifully presented, and clearly made with fresh, high-quality ingredients. I especially loved the lasagna which was bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection. The pistachio olive oil cake was the perfect way to end the meal—decadent but not overwhelming.

Wonderful dinner experience. We had the Chicken Involitni and Veal Piccata. The owner helped us select an appropriate wine. Both entrees were delicious. Had the Chocolate Ganache Cake for dessert...so rich and decadent. Would definitely return.
