Dining room at Quartino, Chicago, ILThe folks behind Gibson’s Steakhouse do it again with this comfortable, noisy Italian small-plates concept. The dining room, which is separated by archways and features hodgepodge table settings, fills with a professional loft-dwelling crowd that heads straight for the in-house prepped salumeria selections (try the delicate ribbons of duck prosciutto and air-dried bresaola); cheeses like Gorgonzola dolce make an appearance, too. A great stop with friends and family alike, there are oodles of appealing choices, including garlicky white bean spread, pungent Italian cheese fondue and Neapolitan pizzas---not to mention super-affordable carafes (think $4 and up). Entrées range from lemony scallops with caperberries to crisp duck leg with Tuscan kale. In the mood for pasta? Try the linguine with clams or ravioli with braised pork and fava beans.
