    Nice little Italian spot in Forest Park. Quality Food...good vibes. My wife chose this place...glad she did...it was 🔥🔥🔥. For the appetizer we had the Crab Cakes. For the entree I had the Steak Panini and the Tropical Coconut Cocktail. My wife got the Rigatoni...and she said it was really good and flavorful..and perfect for a lunch portion. Well there you have it ...hit em up. 😁

    Cozy Italian restaurant in Forest Park on Madison. We enjoyed our Mother’s Day lunch there with delicious mussel and Diablo Seafood Linguine. I wish they had more wine selections to choose from. Service was good and we like the space. No dog allowed at patio that’s a bummer :(

    Everything about Caffe De Luca is amazing. Highly suggest sitting on the roof, which is often closed for private parties, but the outdoor sidewalk seating is also great. The grilled calamari is one of the best appetizers I've ever had and even though they only have GF crust advertised on one pizza, you can get any of them gluten free!

    One of my favorites spots to go! The food and service are great every time. I love the cucumber margarita and pear martini. The mussels, gnocchi, and mushroom risotto are very good!

    The ambience was warm and welcoming. The staff were friendly and attentive. The menu offered a wide variety of appetizers, salads, and entrees. (We were too full for dessert!). Prices were moderately expensive but well worth it. Treat yourself to a lovely night out!

    Had a great time at caffe De Luca! Excellent service from the moment we arrived. Convenient parking in the lot across the street. We'd visited many years ago and were excited to return. This time we went light and already made plans to return to try more of the pastas. From what we could see from nearby diners the portions are large. We enjoyed our pizza and salad... and the TIRAMISU. It was the star today with the perfect blend of sweet and bitter. Highly recommend. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    The food was pretty good, I'm giving it 3 stars because the host was more concerned with his cell phone than the guests and there were a few odd things like packaged diner butter that came out with the bread.

    Portions are very generous and all the food was delicious! We tried some salads and paninis; everything was fresh, delicious, and flavorful. Located in a lovely area of downtown Forest Park, they have outdoor seating as well as indoor seating and a beautiful bar.

    It's a quaint restaurant. I enjoy sitting at the bar, with the amazing bar staff that make every drink great. Sometimes I enjoy the streetside patio. The rooftop is cute too. The food is great as well. There's nothing I don't like about this place.

    We had high hopes for this restaurant as we looked at the menu and saw the other reviews. We are vegetarian, so maybe the food wasn't really made for us, but we found the flavors to be lackluster. The initial bread basket was cold (not warm bread). The pizza had a nice thin crust but the cheese and flavors didn't seem good. I kept tasting something different in there that I felt was ruining the flavor ... Something like cheddar cheese type of taste. The service was wonderful though. The staff was really nice. For the price we paid, the meal was not worth it. Maybe non-vegetarians might have a different experience.

    My Bff and I went here for brunch for her Bday. Place was nicer than I thought it be. If there is no street parking there is city parking across the street. The place has a very warm cozy feel to it. Food was tasty -gave me home cooked vibes. Mocha coffe was perfect but the staff and service were the best! When I mentioned it was my bff b- day they brought out a cute single serving of cheese cake with lit candle. I will be returning soon.

    Delicious food. Friendly service.

    This is one of my favorites places in the Oak Park / Forest Park neighborhoods! Love the decor, it’s multi leveled with a third floor outdoor and street level seating area for the warm months. The decor is warm with beautiful lamps hung from the ceiling and the staff is friendly, knowledgeable and I have never had a bad meal there. I orders the grilled calamari- it was perfectly grilled and served on a bed of arugula salad. Best calamari I have ever eaten and for my main ordered a Milano pizza that the crust was crispy and just the right amount of toppings. Service was fantastic and the food came out hot and perfectly cooked. Great for casual dinners or a special occasion. Do not miss this place!

    Went there because of high rates on Google map. A lots of expectation but just decent food and cocktail. Steam mussels was good and robust flavor. Surf and turf was okay. Order medium rare came out well done. Friendly services and really like out door.

    We loved the atmosphere so much that we're having our 35 guest reception upstairs in October. We will probably be back for dinner and definitely want to try the martinis! Jacinto the manager is very pleasant and all the servers are very attentive.
