Best Restaurants for People Watching in Evanston

Great presentation, great service, and interesting dishes. Prices are a bit steep on certain items and the quantity you get is not much. Portions are a bit small but very tasty. We will be back to try a few other things. We spent $200 for two people for Valentine's day dinner.

The server was great and very chill, can tell was very happy to be doing what she was doing.

It was wonderful. The food was amazing . The service was amazing . The restaurant was clean ! Overall a great experience. We will be back . Soon !

The service was excellent. The food was very good. We had the meatball appetizer and 2 pasta dishes. I had a glass of pino noir and my friend had the pomegranate drink. I can’t remember the name. Both were very good. The valet service was also excellent. My only complaint is when I booked the reservations there was only a 2:30 and a 2:45 seating. When we came in there were a lot of open tables. We left at 4 and only a quarter of the restaurant was full.

Osteria Langhe is a cozy, inviting local spot that feels like an escape to Northern Italy. The staff is always super attentive but not over the top. The wine list is curated with Italian gems you rarely find elsewhere, including lovely Barolos and sparkling options. We are huge fans of the Plin, tiny-sized agnolotti filled with a dedicated La Tur cheese, the ragu, and the braised beef brasato. Whether you’re looking for a romantic dinner spot or just want to treat yourself to some truly authentic Italian cooking, Osteria Langhe is worth a visit.
