My boyfriend and I have walked by this place dozens of times, and have been meaning to try it for a while. We finally went yesterday. They were running a little behind, but it was honestly worth the wait. The portions were large, the quality of the ingredients were on point. The tomato sauce reminds me of my grandmother's. If you are looking for a taste of southern Italy you gotta try this place. My boyfriend and I both agreed we will only order pizza from here. A true neighborhood gem! ♥️
If you are looking for a Lincoln Square neighborhood restaurant that serves really tasty Italian food including crispy crusted pizzas, then you are in luck! Chef Vittorio who is from the Naples area of Italy has a lengthy background in the restaurant business. They've also been featured in Check Please.
I Monelli is legit. The food is incredible and if you can go in good weather to sit outside, I highly recommend it. If you are looking for some quick dining, don't bother here, but if you have the time to have a leisurely dinner, do it. The food is absolutely worth waiting for. Bring a bottle of wine or a six-pack of beer and just enjoy the company of the people with whom you are dining.
My family come here from time to time, and I do not plan on stopping anytime soon.
