After strolling around River North, my girlfriend and I
After strolling around River North, my girlfriend and I tried our luck at walking in and attaining a table. We were told that a reservation was late and if they didn't arrive in five minutes, we could be seated. We got the table! We ordered bre

Had the burrata mushroom pasta a while ago.
It was absolutely delicious and filling but very expensive for pasta
Good but not the best in the world.
I got carbonara but I tried my friend vodka pasta and I think that was better. The lemon fettuccine was also good but nothing crazy Lemon olive oil cake was light and yummy

Speaking as someone who has been to Italy, Torchio has some of the best pasta I've had in the US. Every dish was cooked to perfection, but if you're deciding between the carbonara or another dish I would absolutely pick the carbonara. The w
First time in Chicago, was recommended Torchio by a friend.
The food was delicious and the service was excellent! 10/10!!
This is a very reliable neighborhood Italian restaurant.
They serve traditional and classic Italian dishes. Very good for a casual evening or even for an unpretentious date night!

I was able to make reservations about a week ahead of time on tock with a $10/per person deposit. From a business perspective and a generally punctual perspective, I understand their reasoning behind and actually enjoy it. The place is on the smalle
I had a very mediocre meal that I was very disappointed by.
So let's start with the good: the pasta is fresh and that is a focus on the menu which is great. You can taste the difference. We also go the eggplant caprese which was excellent. It had a fried eggplant base and the burrata and tomato was just
Fabulous pasta!
We made an easy online reservation for the bar on a Thursday night, but found it just as enjoyable as a regular seat. We enjoyed our cosmopolitans and aviation cocktails to drink. I had the bolognese and it was amazing! I was able to take nearly half
Italian food in Chicago
I stopped in with my friend for dinner but they were full at the time. We decided to do take out versus waiting an hour. I ordered the Truffle & Fried Burrata. My friend ordered Mushroom, Spinach, Taleggio Rigatoni. Both were quite good when com

Too bad the atmosphere isn’t as excellent as the food. All the handmade pasta dishes are delicious, particularly the pappardelle. Staff are very nice, service good. The sports bar-like atmosphere with loud rock detracts from the experience.
Fun lively and damn good food
Torchio is such a hidden gem. A better experience and better quality food here than most of the populate new spots opening up in west loop and downtown. And such a charismatic staff - get a seat at the bar!
Top notch Italian
My wife and I loved our meal at Torchio’s. The staff and friendly and attentive and the food is delicious. My wife said her lasagna was the finest she’d ever eaten. I highly recommend the Fumo Y Fuego cocktail.
OMG
Omg! This place is fantastic. The staff was fantastic. Our server was very knowledgeable about the menu & the wine selection. If you are going on a Friday or Saturday you MUST get the bechamel lasagna!! Also had the carbonara which was tasty too.
Worth the Uber fare
Service / staff outstanding. The food and the craft cocktails unmatched! Flavor, texture, quality, atmosphere, this place has it all!

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Torchio Pasta Bar Chicago at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Torchio Pasta Bar Chicago page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* PerceptiveWash44, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* PerceptiveWash44 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to PerceptiveWash44 for any questions Peter may have as PerceptiveWash44 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* PerceptiveWash44 now uses their connections at Torchio Pasta Bar Chicago to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If PerceptiveWash44 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, PerceptiveWash44 receives the $200 reward which is credited to PerceptiveWash44's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Torchio Pasta Bar Chicago!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
