Bice

The main recessed dining room embodies sunny sophistication, with its eggshell-colored walls, light wood details and angular accents, in the fashion of a sleek Californian bistro. This is a place fit for both business lunches and a chic shopper’s respite.

 

The menu marries traditional Italian with contemporary accents, featuring classic antipasti, homemade pastas and creamy risottos alongside veal, seafood, and steak main courses. The wine list also reflects this approach, incorporating Californian and Argentinian wines to complement the Italian bottles. Just make sure you save room for dessert (and European-quality coffee); the specialty Choccolatissimo – a molten chocolate cake topped with toasted almonds and vanilla coulis – decadently deserves the name.

 

In the summer Bice opens its very popular sidewalk patio, perfect for people watching in the heart of the city. Private banquet rooms and party packages are also available for parties ranging from 10 to 140 guests.

 

Bice’s Chicago location opened in 1989, as one of 17 Bice Restaurants around the world. The Bice name, style, and fine Italian cuisine grace many of the Globe’s most Cosmopolitan Cities including Dubai, Tokyo, and Barcelona. The Original Bice opened in Milan in 1926.
