Love this new edition to Michigan avenue. Very authentic and quaint. Great menu some outside seating as well. Definitely want to try more of the focaccia sandwiches.
Went for the $9 spritz happy hour, which is a great deal and they were delicious! The staff brought over bread and oil while we were drinking, as well as water for the table. This was very thoughtful and great customer service. I’ll be back to try the food!
came across this place while looking for lunch in the city. it was AMAZING! i got the napoli (vegetarian) and it was so delicious even though it was very simple ingredients. i’m definitely going to try and make it at home. my fiancé got the italiano and it was delicious. they are a little pricy, but they’re filling ... with good portion sizes and the gentleman at the counter was so nice and patient. we’ll definitely be coming back when we come back into the city Read More
Ordered sandwich with mortadella with pistachio cream and it was out of this world. Bread and quality of ingredients are matching the price and quality. Very similar taste that we tried in Venice Italy from the food street restaurant called All’Antico Vinaio. Definitely place to try if you’re in Chicago downtown.
I ordered from Lizzano on DoorDash and it did not disappoint! The item descriptions and pictures looked great, so I decided to give it a try. They also had a great BOGO deal on the Il Carnivoro sandwich. It was absolutely delicious—packed with flavor, made with high-quality ingredients, and the focaccia bread was ... outstanding. My picture doesn’t do it justice, but the taste was amazing. I’ll definitely be ordering again! Read More
I've come here for cocktails a couple times. The negroni might be my favorite of all time. Absolutely delicious with notes of strawberry and chocolate. Great spritz's as well. Can't wait to come back for a sandwich.
Walking around looking for lunch, craving a really good sandwich and I am SO glad we walked down Wells Street. Roast beef, pecorino and truffles!? Perfection.
Sooooo good! Delicious spritzes & sandwiches! The atmosphere, food, music, and staff were all wonderful. I will definitely be coming back. All ingredients are fresh so it didn’t feel like I was eating a “heavy” sandwich!
If drinking an Aperol Spritz and eating the best Italian sandwich in Chicago is wrong, I don’t want to be right. @lizzanochicago just opened in River North and I enjoyed every single bite. From perfectly crafted sandwiches on seriously good focaccia, to refreshing spritzes, this spot brings super cute delicious ... Italian vibes to the city. Bonus? They’ve got happy hour specials. You can enjoy meats, cheeses, focaccia and spritzes at a discount. Run, don’t walk! 📍636 N Wells Read More
