Mart Anthony's Italian Restaurant

Super GemNear West Side · Italian/Steakhouse Community-sourced, unverified
📍 1200 W Hubbard St, Chicago, IL 60642

Martin Anthony Campo opened Mart Anthony's in 1981 as a modest neighborhood spot in a West Town/River West stretch that looked nothing like the gentrified corridor it's become, originally more of a hangout for friends to drink, bet on games, and play cards than a destination restaurant.

$$$
The Chicken Vesuvio is the classic order, and the house-made chocolate cake at the end is not a formality — finish the meal properly.

The food came from Sicilian recipes handed down through relatives who'd immigrated from Italy, and those same recipes are still the backbone of the menu three generations later, now run by Campo's son and grandsons. The city honored the family in 2018 with a street co-naming — Martin and Theresa Campo Way — at the corner nearest the restaurant.

The heated, covered patio is a real four-season asset, not a fair-weather-only feature. Closed for lunch most days; dinner-only Monday through Wednesday, lunch service added Thursday through Sunday.
