Coco Pazzo Cafe
636 N St Clair Cuisines: ItalianAbout
Its big brother is the restaurant Coco Pazz0 on Hubbard Street. Many consider Coco Pazzo the best Italian place in Chicago, and big crowds and high prices follow accordingly. Coco Pazzo Café is a smaller, scaled back version of the famed restaurant and features many of the same Tuscan and Northern Italian dishes. Goat cheese with fennel, olives, potatoes and warm crostini is a popular appetizer. Salmon Pan-Fried with sundried tomato tapenade, lentils, wild mushrooms and spinach is a particularly good entrée. Reservations are recommended, but you can usually get a table without them.
