Il Milanese

Food + DrinkNorth Center · Italian Community-sourced, unverified
📍 2201 W Montrose Ave, Chicago, IL 60618

Il Milanese built its name on housemade pasta, and The Infatuation's review backs that up as the real reason to go — even while flagging that the sauces can be inconsistent, with a snoozy tomato version or an overly rich porcini cream occasionally overshadowing good noodles underneath.

$$

It opened in North Center in 2018 as part of a small wave of new Italian spots that year, and it's kept a steady local following since, the kind of neighborhood Italian place that doesn't need a tasting menu or a sommelier to justify a weeknight dinner.
