Making house-made gnocchi at Trattoria Ultimo  |  Try a dish tonight!

House-made freshness

We believe dishes taste better when they're made from scratch. That's why everything from our pastas, sauces, sausage and meatballs, to our tasty tiramisu are made in-house. Please note, our house-made focaccia and olive tapenade are so good you may want an extra order "to-go."

Try the risotto-of-the-day or the always popular gnocchi (available gluten-free upon request), simply delicious. For those who love vegetables, we do too and use only fresh locally sourced ingredients for our dishes; this is why our menu rotates according to the seasons. If you're vegetarian, let us know, our pasta and vegetable dishes will be sure to please.

Bring a bottle of white wine to pair well with fresh wild-caught branzino filet or red wine to accompany expertly grilled lamb chops or fall-off-the-bone short ribs. Finish the evening by sharing sweet treats like house-made assorted cookies and gelato. Perfetto.

Make your reservation today!  We look forward to serving you.

Behind Chicago Food   / by Sabrina Medora, May 13, 2017

Chicago folks, if you haven't hit up this BYOB Italian spot yet, you're dining wrong. Chicagoans will attest that there is no shortage of delicious Italian food in the Windy City. On every corner and from every price point, there's always an option for handmade pastas . . . And yet, if you haven't dined at Antoine Cedicci's Trattoria Ultimo, you're missing out on an experience that's unique even to Chicago's Italian-filled scene.

As the conceptor, recipe creator and executive chef, Antoine's ever-changing menu is sparked by his insatiable appetite for research. Having traveled throughout Europe and learning at the hands of chefs across Italy, Germany, Switzerland, and France, Antoine's approach to food is driven by discovery and playfulness.

With its rough wooden tables and intimately cozy space, Trattoria Ultimo welcomes you like your favorite neighbor. Grab a chair inside or on the patio, have a glass of wine and, before you know it, hours have passed leaving you feeling blearily happy and satiated. You get the comforts of Italian food with delightful, unexpected twists.
