Il Porcellino sits in the heart of River North, offering classic Italian-American comfort food in a casual setting rather than a special-occasion one. The seasonal menu focuses on housemade pastas, vegetable antipasti, and daily specials, with ingredients sourced from artisans, purveyors, and local farmers.
The garlic bread and lasagna have built a following among regulars, and the lobster fettuccine with house-made sungold tomatoes shows up often in what people order. It's a Lettuce Entertain You restaurant, part of a Chicago group with a long track record in the city's dining scene.
