Volare Ristorante Italiano Chicago Reviews
Everything was perfect.
Service, drinks, food and environment. I highly recommend this place.
Volare is the best neighborhood gem, at a time when
Volare is the best neighborhood gem, at a time when neighborhood gems are a thing of the past in the streeterville/Gold Coast area. The owner goes out of his way to ensure every dish and every server and every valet is a standout. The food is delicio
Food & Service were awesome, even on a busy Friday night.
We were pleasantly surprised because we were able to get a 6:30pm reservation a couple weeks ago, when many places in the area were booked up during this popular dinner time.
Best food and service in Chicago.
Great staff! Everything we get is always fabulous. Highly recommend

Thank you for the fabulous dining experience! We stopped by in the afternoon (after walking for miles at the Cubs ballpark tour) to check on reservations for later and the restaurant was closed. My BF encouraged me to go in and ask anyway. I was gree

Best Italian food I've had in Chicago! It's always a treat
Best Italian food I've had in Chicago! It's always a treat to come here. Sometimes I've felt a little rushed out, waiters have asked if we want boxes only minutes after we got our food. It also seems like the managers yell at their sta
It was a crowded Sunday evening on Labor Day weekend.
Our party of 3 arrived early and were seated promptly at a table. We ordered appetizers, a pizza, and entrees. We started with cocktails and then a delicious bottle of red Piedmont wine that was recommended by a manager. Everything was delicious and

Well...I've been here before and absolutely love the atmosphere. We had the insalata Volare and the pasta with the short ribs. Sorry I don't remember the name! But holy cow...this is so good! Cannot believe the portions. They are huge.
We were in town visiting during a long weekend.
It can be very busy during dinner time, and very loud in general. We made the reservation online, so we didn't wait long for being seated. Our waitress is very friendly and nice. However, a long waiting time can be expected after being seated. W

We were visiting and wanted a good meal where we could sit outside and enjoy a quiet Sunday. The food was so wonderful (melanzane appetizer, rigatoni arrabiata and rigatoni a la vodka). We had the best server (Jorge) and had a great time. We will abs
Service was impeccable.
Very attentive. Wine selection superb. Had calamari, cooked perfectly( not overcooked), light. The squid ink pasta with seafood was very delightful. Squid ink pasta is hard to come by,savored each bite. The halibut was also nice and flaky but not d

I've heard so many great things about this place only to be disappointed by the reception and service. I have no idea why, but it felt like we were ignored the entire night, was it because we made reservations from yelp? Anyways, the story was
Authentic dishes and good value!
You have a lot of choices in a city like Chicago but for good, classic, Italian fare this is excellent. I selected it as we had my 2.5 year old granddaughter and kids like pasta! We ordered everything for sharing and were not disappointed. Plus, th
Take a Pass
My family and I went to Volare for an early dinner around 4:00 p.m. last night. Overall, I’d rate the food closer to a 2.5, but the excellent service brought my rating up to a 3. Even though the restaurant wasn’t busy, it took nearly 40 minutes f
Amazing food and service.
Awesome experience. The wait staff is very attentive and helpful. It almost seems like there are more staff than patrons. Place was packed on a Thursday night. Highly recommend the meat, cheese, olives, and sun dried tomatoes. We had the black in
A flavorful and festive evening
Dinner at Volare was terrific. The dining rooms are lively, with patrons enjoying conversation, dinners with family and friends. The restaurant was crowded, with a waiting list, but our reservation was promptly honored. Service was superb and smiling
Fabulous
Juileano made our experience outstanding! He managed to make all our needs reality. My daughter raved over his mock tail and the food was fantastic as usual! Thank you!!
Amazing Service and Delicious Food
Arrived early for our reservation and were seated immediately on the patio; as requested. Service was amazing! Jorge was friendly and efficient. He answered every question and made great recommendations. The food was excellent - from start to finish.
I must stop in Chicago Volare is one of the best
This is my 10th time going to Volare in Chicago. The bread is fantastic. The service is great the wine, the pasta, the salad everything tiramisu is out of this world fantastic Italian restaurant. I must stop in Chicago.
Amazing food!
The food was amazing. I tried the Spaghetti neri al pesce and the Garganelli al Ragu di Manzo. Both were great but I would recommend the ragu. The inside area of the restaurant was loud and very busy when I went so I would recommend sitting outside w

My wife & I had a great experience. We shared a Burrata and then she had the veal and I had the lasagna. Both were excellent in presentation as well as flavor, and portions were generous. We chose an Chianti reserve wine and it was very good. Ano
Kiwis visiting from New Zealand were treated like VIP's!!

Top-notch Chicago Italian eatery
Very friendly and attentive staff, excellent food, busy atmosphere with large wine list. Bread was delicious and menu was extensive. Definitely returning!
Great Food and Experience
Always great food at Volare. Whether its a pasta dish or a seafood entree we are never disappointed. Drinks are always well done too. Service is first class. Always a go to place when in Chicago.
Fantastic Food & Service
The food was first class, fresh and generous portions. The service was genuine, attentive and overall, a good vibe. It is now our favourite Italian in Chicago, and we will be returning again and again, would highly recommend this restaurant.
Excellent service and food.
I am disappointed that they don't make fettuccine Alfredo anymore. I know it's been off the menu for a long time but never had an issue if we asked until last night. I do suggest having a small list of options as kid friendly. We will be back!
Great service! Very accommodating! We had a reservation for
Great service! Very accommodating! We had a reservation for 6 but they were able to take us earlier! The atmosphere was warm and inviting like family style restaurants. Plenty of seating but tables aren't on top of each other which I hate when rest

Food 5*, Service 5*++++ I came here because of the great reviews on Yelp but it's always a risk when you take visitors to a restaurant you haven't been to yourself. In this case we were attending a trade show in Chicago with our vendors from China. I

Fantastic food with old- school ambiance
Quaint, reasonable, delicious Italian! Pasta was divine and dessert was amazing! Staff attentive and helpful with selecting wine by the glass…can’t wait to return the next time we visit Chicago!
Food is standard italian fare and just good.
Portion sizes are very large. Service is friendly but slow.

Wow! In a town full of Italian restaurants, this one deserves its high rating. We had several appetizers and on of them disappointed. The veal parm is incredible. Such a good value for the size! We were not disappointed by anything. We were s

Service was amazing! I can't remember exactly what I got but our server recommended and it was great. The place was packed so make sure you have a reservation.
Very warm and welcoming service.
We made a reservation and got there by 6pm. I expect it to be loud but it was pretty quiet until about 7pm. Even after the restaurant is 80% full, the noise level is still ok. Food is excellent. Will come back again!
I just love this place.
Never disappoints me and never had any bad food or service here. Highly recommend if you appreciate a great Italian food.
Really a disappointment.
My boss has been eating here for three decades when he comes to Chicago. It's where he wanted to go. I wanted to go to Girl and the Goat. I found the food uninspired, the service brusque, the prices high. The dining room was cold on a chilly ni
Fantastic meal and experience!
We brought our small family company here for a wonderful meal to celebrate St.Patrick's day. The service was outstanding and the food was some of the best Italian food we have ever had. The Ceasar salad and pasta were amazing. Can't wait to come back
Better in the restaurant than via takeout.
Plastic ware was not included as requested and the lasagna was only fair. Salad was fresh and plentiful.

It seems that the reservation is required but we managed to get a table immediately with walk in. It's located along the Michigan avenue and closed to the magnificent mile. It's very crowded in the dinner hour. Good service and atmosphere. We really

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Volare Ristorante Italiano Chicago at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Volare Ristorante Italiano Chicago page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* PerceptiveWash44, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* PerceptiveWash44 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to PerceptiveWash44 for any questions Peter may have as PerceptiveWash44 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* PerceptiveWash44 now uses their connections at Volare Ristorante Italiano Chicago to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If PerceptiveWash44 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, PerceptiveWash44 receives the $200 reward which is credited to PerceptiveWash44's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Volare Ristorante Italiano Chicago!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
