Maggiano was great! Not only was the food delicious, the service was excellent. I had the chicken saltimbocca. When seated, the waiter asked about if anyone had any food sensitivities and I’m severely gluten intolerant. He then invited the chef to come out to talk to me about my allergies/ sensitivity which was pleasantly surprising. Most chefs never do that. Overall, my boyfriend and I had a great time eating here. I’ll definitely come back again the next time I get to visit Chicago.

I ordered delivery from home so that it would arrive when I got to work downtown. The order came right on time, hot, delicious and with napkins, plastic cutlery and extra chili sauce. I could not have been more delighted. Tom Kha w/shrimp soup and Tom Sum salad were prepared perfectly and all the flavors were in balance! I appreciate how the menu gives allergen information. I’m Gluten Free and was able to clearly see which dishes would be safe for me to eat. Thank you, Star of Siam! I will be a repeat customer for sure!

How to sum it up, let's say I will back in September I hope as I was blown away with their special and they even had great gluten free pasta. For two people you won't break over 50$ which is very surprising. This is by far best pasta I've had since I last visited chicago. No doubts they have a great outdoor seating but my little one is messy haha Thank you for your great food please keep it up

Went with hubby and son. I have celiac and must be gluten free. Finding a place to eat who can accommodate and offers a variety can be tough. We were greeted warmly by Joel, the owner, who assured me there were many items to choose from that would be gluten free and explained the items I needed to avoid. The waitress was already aware I needed gluten free when she came to take our order. The fish tacos I had were delish. The hot dogs ...and burger the others had said were also delicious. Enjoyed trivia and the warmth and friendliness of the owner. Will absolutely go back.

Rosebuds was recomended by a friend in Philly as an Italian place Frank Sinatra ate. I don't know it was this one as several were listed, but this one was great I sat in the covered heated patio and eas very comfortable. Nothing exotic in terms of food but had gluten free pasta, did add some chicken for protein, in delicious marina sauce. Had dairy free sorbet for dessert. Lovely server and it was great experience. Would love to go back.

At first I was unsure on how the night would go, as the hostess was not very welcoming but that soon changed when we told to go upstairs to meet our group. The service there was amazing and very accommodating to a member of our party who was gluten intolerant. The food was amazing and so we're the drinks.

Was visiting from out of state. This place is kind of classy when it comes to the menu but they do have a stripped down one with burgers. Staff was super knowledgeable when it came to Celiac Disease. Even brought me my own gluten free toast when they brought everyone else their normal bread. They do not have a dedicated gf fryer, but they do have a dedicated gf toaster! The food was decent but the service was great!
