The restaurant has been awarded 3 stars from the Chicago Tribune, 3 1/2 stars from the Chicago Sun Times and has consistently received excellent ratings from Zagats. Located in the heart of the Lincoln Park theater district — directly across the street from Steppenwolf theater and around the corner from Royal George — Trattoria Gianni’s has long been a destination of theatergoers before and after the shows.
