Best Mediterranean Restaurants in Woodridge

This is by far our absolute favorite restaurant (even over anything downtown)! Food is outstanding- the mussels are to die for! The bread they serve with the mussels soaked in the sauce is the single best bite of food I’ve ever had and I’m a major foodie who worked in the industry for many many years. We’ve have the same server the past few times we have dined there. Seba not only remembers us but greeted me with a giant hug this past time and was genuinely happy to see and serve us even though we were the last table of the night. Will be back time and time again ❣️

Il Carciofo is awesome. The service was terrific and the food was off the charts. The carbonara was the best I have ever had and the artichoke appetizer is a must. Zeppole dessert was a great way to finish a great meal. Already booked the next reservation!!

I was so happy we were able to get in last minute. We looked at reservations for tonight around 11 am, the only thing available was 9:15. Maybe 45 minutes later a 6:45 pops up and we were able to snag it. We had the short rib humus, whipped feta, hamachi, pork belly, steak & frites, fried halloumi and two kabobs. Perfect for all 4 of us hungry eaters. 100% will be back- if you can get in I highly recommend trying anything and everything on the menu. Service was impeccable. Food was courses perfectly and everything came out hot right out of the oven. If you have been to Bavel in LA you will love this “sister” in Chicago

Everything was wonderful! The food, the cocktails, appetizers, the ambiance and we even got limoncello as a treat at the end of the evening. Just lovely My favorite part of all: the name of the restaurant!!! ELIA ❤️

Great food with interesting flavors. A great date night spot!
