That is, our cuisine is not only designed to be elegant, but also to be flavorful and to take experience into account.Come relax and enjoy an elegant pairing of Vietnamese pho, noodles, rice dishes and more with our in-house cocktails, wines and full bar.

Mia Francesca features the zesty, earthy cuisine of Rome and the surrounding areas of Tuscany, Umbria, and Lazio. It was one of the first restaurants in Chicago to encourage the lively art of dining with a contemporary, casually sophisticated trattoria ambiance, simple, rustic cooking, friendly service, and fair prices.Waiting for a table at the beautiful antique bar is part of the charm of Mia Francesca. The plush upstairs dining room and lounge can be reserved for private events, as can the more intimate coach house tucked away behind the restaurant. In the summer, al fresco dining is also available on a charming cobblestone terrace.

    We had a terrific dinner with friends at Eden on Saturday night. Food was delicious and plentiful and our server, Lindsay was great. We look forward to returning. The carrots, roasted potatoes, red crab bucatini and cauliflower flatbread were favorites.

    We came here for Christmas Eve dinner. It was delightful. The food and cocktails were excellent, the service could not have been better and the atmosphere was festive but not noisy. This was our second Christmas Eve here and it won’t be our last. The crowd is older but I’m older so we fit right in!

    Our server was extremely knowledgeable about the Greek wine list and recommended special items on the food menu. We assumed she was Greek, but when she heard my husband and our friend speaking German, she spoke Deutsch, and we learned that she is half German American and Italian American. It was an amazing meal and a wonderful way to celebrate the holidays with our friends.
