George and the staff and Lizzano were wonderful. We enjoyed a sandwich and charcuterie for lunch and will definitely be back for happy hour. This is a great spot downtown with lots of light and seating. I highly recommend for a quick lunch bite or a leisurely lunch + spritz!

Went for the $9 spritz happy hour, which is a great deal and they were delicious! The staff brought over bread and oil while we were drinking, as well as water for the table. This was very thoughtful and great customer service. I’ll be back to try the food!

Love this new edition to Michigan avenue. Very authentic and quaint. Great menu some outside seating as well. Definitely want to try more of the focaccia sandwiches.

Ordered sandwich with mortadella with pistachio cream and it was out of this world. Bread and quality of ingredients are matching the price and quality. Very similar taste that we tried in Venice Italy from the food street restaurant called All’Antico Vinaio. Definitely place to try if you’re in Chicago downtown.

The sandwich was very fresh and the flavors worked so well together. The bread was perfect and brought it all together so nicely. I had the Italiano and cant wait to come back and try the rest. A great new addition to my lunch carousel.

Walking around looking for lunch, craving a really good sandwich and I am SO glad we walked down Wells Street. Roast beef, pecorino and truffles!? Perfection.

came across this place while looking for lunch in the city. it was AMAZING! i got the napoli (vegetarian) and it was so delicious even though it was very simple ingredients. i’m definitely going to try and make it at home. my fiancé got the italiano and it was delicious. they are a little pricy, but they’re filling ... with good portion sizes and the gentleman at the counter was so nice and patient. we’ll definitely be coming back when we come back into the city Read More

Sooooo good! Delicious spritzes & sandwiches! The atmosphere, food, music, and staff were all wonderful. I will definitely be coming back. All ingredients are fresh so it didn’t feel like I was eating a “heavy” sandwich!

If drinking an Aperol Spritz and eating the best Italian sandwich in Chicago is wrong, I don’t want to be right. @lizzanochicago just opened in River North and I enjoyed every single bite. From perfectly crafted sandwiches on seriously good focaccia, to refreshing spritzes, this spot brings super cute delicious ... Italian vibes to the city. Bonus? They’ve got happy hour specials. You can enjoy meats, cheeses, focaccia and spritzes at a discount. Run, don’t walk! 📍636 N Wells Read More
