I've had it on my bucket list for a while largely because it's a namesake, and it did not disappoint. The service was the best part of my visit and they kept on top of things, clearing and cleaning in-between the courses, refilling drinks etc. The food was great too, and came out on time. I highly recommend the grilled octopus appetizer. I was celebrating as well, so we got a free dessert, which I really appreciated. 10/10 would recommend and would come back to again.

Incredible Mediterranean spot. We ate outside, but they have a very spacious indoor area. The service was incredibly attentive. Order the calamari, probably one of the best I've had. For my main I had the Angolotti which had the most tender short rib. For my drink I had a non-alcoholic peach spritz which was refreshing and not too sweet

We had an amazing lunch on Sunday around 2:00.
The inside of the restaurant is really cute. Service was smooth and the food was amazing.
As an Italian I will say their pasta dishes were really high value and well cooked. Portions are also pretty big.
We loved everything we ate, cannot recommend this place enough!

Nora is an absolute gem! Every dish was bursting with flavor - Italian with a delightful Mediterranean twist. We started with the calamari, hummus, burrata, and charcuterie board, all perfectly prepared and beautifully presented. The goat cheese salad and Caesar salad were both mouth watering. The branzino was fresh, flavorful, and flaky, the short rib agnolotti rich and comforting, and the chicken dish was incredible. And don’t even get me started on dessert! The baklava with pistachio ice gelato, cannoli, and tiramisu were all heavenly. Every bite was perfection. Best to come with a group and get family style so you can try a bit of everything. Don’t miss out on this spot it’s a true culinary treasure! I was so busy enjoying I only got a picture of the dessert spread, but I will sure be back!

Amazing experience! The octopus appetizer was perfectly cooked, and the mushroom risotto with a glass of white wine was outstanding. Great service, excellent food, and very fair prices. Highly recommended in Chicago!

Everything tasted fantastic and was presented beautifully. Staff was very attentive friendly and on spot. I wil definitely be back here to explore the menu.
Had oysters and Caesar salad
Out door seating was perfect for people watching but private enough to eat in peace safely

Loved the octopus as an appetizer to share (too much for one person)! The bread with olive paste was amazing. The waiters were very friendly and caring.

As an Italian living in the U.S., I can say this place is truly special. The food is outstanding, made with top-quality ingredients, many imported directly from Italy. Chef Daniele, originally from Sardinia, perfectly combines authentic Italian flavors with Sardinian touches.
The octopus was tender inside and crispy outside — simply amazing — and the suckling pig was cooked to perfection, soft and full of flavor. Great atmosphere and excellent service. Definitely deserves 5 stars!
