Bertucci's Corner
300 W 24TH St, Chicago
Tel: (312) 225-2848 |
| On the same corner since 1935, Bertucci's Corner exemplifies the classic Chicago neighborhood restaurant. A long, beautifully worn bar sits along one wall of the dining room. The black-and-red checked tile floor and paneled walls are essentially unchanged from the restaurant's first day of operation, and the black-and-white authentic photos of Chicagoans from decades ago show the neighborhood as it was. The tables are spaced so that dining is comfortable, not cramped. |

The kitchen is buzzing, and orders are ready quickly. You are encouraged
to check the chalkboard for daily specials, then enjoy a beer at the table
or bar after ordering your meal. You talk about a hidden gem! Bertucci's
Corner is practically hidden in an obscure neighborhood near China Town
and Bridgeport. But, if you are looking for a true Chicago family Italian
experience, this is it! A no frills, bar/restaurant with plenty of "dese"
and "dose" thrown around to make you feel as if you'd just woke
up in Bridgeport. November 8, 2003 Jeff You have to try it. This friendly old cozy restaurant with a great long bar, has good food and it's close to US Cellular Field and offers a great value. Simply the best I ever had. |
