• Contemporary American • Lakeview / East Lakeview
Booked 29 times today
From the kitchen to the bar, everything we serve is defined by a passion for exploring unique flavor combinations. Wood is more than a name: our wood-fired oven is at the heart of it all, enhancing a dynamic menu of small-plate, American fare, made with the peak midwest farm produce each season has to offer. Though the dishes regularly change, they are defined by a few constants: meat is butchered in-house from humanely-raised animals; vegetables are drawn from local family farms; and all pastas and sausages are freshly made. Lead by our talented Executive Chef Devin Kreller, who is a 6-time Michelin Bib Gourmand winner, Chef Devin uses French-dominated cooking techniques combined with multicultural inspirations such as Asian and Italian to create new dishes. Located in the heart of Chicago Boystown, we're known for our brunches, and house butchered meats. Come see why our restaurant has been around for 12 years. For reservations over 10 guests, please call us at (773) 935-9663.

    Mia Francesca is the classic, small setting for fine dining — cozy but not cluttered, comfortable and quiet in the early evening, becoming livelier in a “friendly” way as the evening progresses. The wait staff moves quickly but unhurriedly, always appearing at precisely the moment they are needed. Service is attentive but unobtrusive, and it is a well-coordinated team effort. Our young waiter was knowlegeable and personal. The red wine my wife and I ordered by the glass was excellent and reasonably priced for generous pours. Our friend’s Old Fashioned was perfect. The drink menu is extensive but not overwhelming in either scope or pricing. The food menu offers variety but doesn’t overwhelm, either. We had an asparagus salad that was the perfectly fresh and light starter. On the other hand, the bruschetta was a large, beautifully prepared tray of four servings that could have been a light meal in itself. It was a perfect blend of flavors and textures! Finally, we had a house prepared Rolli allá Francesca that was rich without being heavy. And it was almost to lovely to eat. My wife and I shared those three courses and had more than enough. Our friends had the same salad, the beef carpaccio — a huge plate of vegetables over thin slices of beef, a large bowl of perfectly fried calamari with a rich red sauce for dipping, and two immense meatballs, all of which they loved and fully consumed. All agreed that it was one of the best meals we’d eaten out in a long time — and we eat out often and well. Don’t miss this gem of a restaurant!

    Wow! We absolutely loved this place! I had chosen this restaurant quite randomly because we had a show at the Laugh Factory afterward. However, I was pleasantly surprised by the outstanding service and food. We ordered the 48-hour marinated skirt steak. The chimichurri sauce was incredible, and the mushrooms were cooked to perfection. The steak was done perfectly at medium. highly recommend if you’re in the area!

    This was our first time dining here and safe to say all of the food was incredible and service was relatively quick and effortless even on a busy Valentine’s Day/Friday night. Steak tartare was delicious and the lamb shoulder and Wood’s KFC dishes were to die for. We will absolutely be back.
