Best Mediterranean Restaurants in Edgebrook

As fans of Rose Mary we were eager to try El Carciofi and willing to take a 4:45 reservation. This is as fun and as delicious as Rose Mary and shares the same approach to dining—shareable small plates. Interesting craft cocktails, sufficient wines by the glass, exceptionally well trained wait staff and very flavorful food. Gus menu was all Rome inspired so it was a little less diverse than Rose Mary. The artichokes were spectacular crisply Rome style. Every inch was edible. Two to an order but they bring you a serrated knife if you want to have them. We had one other appetizer (calamari), one pasta and one seafood main. The portions are great for two to share but if three or four order another something or two and expect to get just a couple bites not full servings. They have $8 servings of gelato and sorbet and a couple amazing deserts they offered to checkout coats.a nice touch in Chicago’s winter. It’s easy to spend $100 per person if you gave two drinks each and desert. We found street parking but forgot to feed the meter since the sign wasn’t obvious so double check

The appetizer sampler plate was so filling that we almost didn't order anything else--but we managed a couple more things. Food was great, and the service was non intrusive--like dining in Europe, the servers gave us space and time to enjoy our meal.

From the friendly and welcoming reception staff to the awesome waitress my experience was wonderful! It was my first visit and my server gets an A+ for her recommendations! I dined alone and the atmosphere and ambiance was welcoming and un rushed. And my meal was scrumptious! I’ll definitely return!

This restaurant has a variety of tasty choices. My soup was spiced just right, it came in a rustic bowl with a generous side of homemade bread. I especially loved the Turkish coffee!

Have been going to Andie’s for almost 30 years (since pre-remodel & expand). Always love the food. Service depends on the visit, but this visit was one of the best ever. Keep up the good quality & standards like this and I’ll be back for another 30, God willing.
