Riccardo Trattoria

One of the best Italian restaurants in town isn’t tucked away on some corner in Little Italy. Surprisingly, it’s smack-dab in Lincoln Park. Chef Riccardo Michi’s family founded the Bice restaurant empire in Milan, so he knows a thing or two about regional Italian food. Don’t miss the orecchiette with sausage, garlicky rapini and pecorino cheese. Become a regular and the Italian waiters might cap off your meal with a slice of ricotta cheesecake.
