Located in the historic Fulton Market district of Chicago’s West Loop neighborhood, il Carciofo is a Roman Italian restaurant drawing inspiration from the restaurants and markets in one of Chef Joe's favorite cities, Rome. The restaurant offers a seasonal menu of elevated yet familiar Italian fare with traditional antipasti, Roman-style pizzas, hand-rolled pastas produced daily in a dedicated pasta lab and market-driven mains that highlight the season's bounty.

    Great service, a little slow but to be expected for opening week. Filled our water continuously thorough out the night, our waitress ran through the whole menu with us, the food was delish. Easily a top 20 spot in Chicago. Dessert was a little underwhelming. Id skip it next time.

    Went opening week and everything we ordered was delicious. The food was truly almost identical to the food I’ve had in Rome. Great service as well from the whole staff. Highly recommend!

    We had an amazing experience at il Carciofo! Of course the food is delicious and the drinks are great, both are outstanding. Our server was friendly, knowledgeable and fun! The atmosphere is cool and comfortable, the music is great and the noise level is perfect. We will definitely become regulars!

    Amazing vibes, amazing dishes, and top notch service. We honestly weren’t surprised by this but are always highly impressed by the level of perfection at Chef Joe’s restaurants. He even stopped by our table to say hello! We’re already planning our next dinner date. A MUST!
