- DDaveChicago / Illinois •19 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoWow, so nice to have a 5-star restaurant in the NW suburbs. We went early (6pm) the 2 of us. We shared a Meatball that was outstanding; there is a Cheese foam on top that I want everyone to taste, it is indescribable. Partner had the Chicken Parm and I had the Chicken Scarpariello. Both were excellent and could easily feed two people. Our server, Malia, was incredible. She was courteous, welcoming, attentive and most of all, engaging. The ambiance was both lively and intimate. We sat next to a table of 6 and could hardly hear them so we were able to speak to each other in a normal tone of voice. Bravo to the staff and owners, we will definitely be back.More infoGiostra$$$$• Italian• Barrington (Township)•4.6
