Davanti Enoteca

This place was really great However it's hard to understand the menu. It's also pretty dark in there so it is hard to see the menu. They didn't have beer so switched ti hard alcohol which isn't an issue. Just want to give a heads up. The pasta was perfect but would have liked more of the sausage in the pasta. Only had a small amount of sausage.

I liked the squash and Farro appetizer. Also liked the bread. Forgot the name though. Kids didn't like it because of honey. Everything else not worth the cost. We were offered a high chair table even after requesting booth. But after requesting again and waiting some more we got a booth. They did not look happy about our request. Server was really nice and suggested good options.

Husband and I dined here for Sweetest Day. First time and we loved everything we ordered. Our waiter Jon was excellent, he even selected the perfect wine for me to try with our meal. The small plates weren’t so small but we did our best! Pictured is Nonna’s Meatballs…yum!!!

My girlfriends and I made our way to Davanti Enoteca in downtown Naperville for our monthly book club meet up. This location was previously Fat Rosie’s which has since moved across the street. The inside is very modern, with unique light fixtures and tasteful wine decor. We sat in an area further in the back which made it really easy to talk/hear each other. Our server John gave us a great background of the restaurant, details on specials, helpful recommendations, and paced our meal out perfectly.

All of our drinks were the perfect mix of strong liquor and tasty flavors. We started with Nonna’s Doc Focaccia which some pieces had a bit of kick but overall was a great starter. Most of us got the Rigatoni Vodka which I can say would be on my top five list. The noodles were perfectly al dente, sauce was just creamy enough, sausage crumbles were flavorful, and torn cheese was a great add. My friend had gotten the short rib risotto with truffle which she said she loved! While the desserts looked intriguing, the portions were certainly large enough so we passed. There were so many menu items I saw that I will certainly be back to try more!

This spot has a nice vibe with delicious, fresh food. Every dish was amazing and the wine that our server recommended was perfect for a warm summer evening. If you’re looking for a quality Italian cuisine and a pleasantly relaxed experience, give this place a try and save room for dessert.
