Chicago Has 7 Old-School Italian Red-Sauce Joints Where The Waiters Remember Your Order
Some Chicago restaurants chase trends, and some have been serving the same lasagna and chicken Vesuvio for generations. This list is about the second kind. These are the red-sauce rooms with checkered tablecloths, framed photos, old-world murals, and servers who treat regulars like family.
