    We were surprised to be seated at the counter overlooking the kitchen and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The chefs and front-of-house teams are amazing to watch in action. Every dish is so flavorful and creative and you never know what is coming next from your selections. Just note, it can get very loud since orders are being called out in addition to the already energetic restaurant behind you if you're seated in this location. Another great dinner at Girl & the Goat!

    We had a fantastic visit! This was the first jazz club we had ever visited, and it was a great time. We saw Sabertooth live and would definitely come by again next time we're in the area.

    The atmosphere and vibe of Elina's was terrific. Sophisticated and felt like a New York neighborhood restaurant. The service was attentive and friendly. The food was fine but nothing very memorable. The fritto misto was way over-breaded (couldn't taste the seafood) and our pasta dish was average. Steak Limone was simple but good and flavorful.

    Dropped in to our favorite spot while in Chicago. We are always greeted like family and the atmosphere is relaxed and friendly. The pasta is fresh and full of flavor. I had my favorite Linguini Vonogole which is always wonderful blend of light, balanced flavors, garlic, clams and EVOO! Always leave OGGI feeling the glow from great food and wonderful community!
