Summary
Features: Traditional Italian fare with a nontraditional Asian twist awaits at Fornetto Mei Chicago at The Whitehall Hotel.
Why We Dine: Italian for "beautiful little oven", Fornetto Mei Chicago offers upscale creative cuisine in a warm and intimate dining room just steps from Michigan Avenue. From homemade Berkshire pork potstickers and thin-crust pizza served piping hot out of Fornetto Mei Chicago's wood-burning oven, to an exceptional wine list featuring over 200 distinguished labels from around the world, a meal at Fornetto Mei in Chicago is as unique as it is memorable.
- Praiseworthy Pizza: In a city renowned for its deep dish pizza, the authentic Italian-style thin-crust pies at Fornetto Mei in Chicago are a delicious treat. Hand-tossed pizzas topped with fresh ingredients like arugula, prosciutto, and red chili infused olive oil are simple yet savory, and come out of Fornetto Mei Chicago's wood-burning oven with an impeccable crispiness and a wonderful smokey finish.
- Warm Ambiance: It might be the heat radiating from the copper-lined wood-burning oven behind the 40-foot bar at Fornetto Mei, but even in the dead of winter, the atmosphere is always warm and intimate at this popular downtown Chicago restaurant.
- Fine Wine & Cocktails: Diners can choose from over 40 premium wines by the glass and up to 200 international and California boutique winery labels at Fornetto Mei in Chicago. But with a selection of over 200 custom martinis on the drink menu at Fornetto Mei Restaurant, the hardest decision is picking between wine or cocktails to enjoy with your meal.
Inside Knowledge: Diners in a rush will be glad to know that, during lunchtime every Monday through Friday, if your meal isn't served within 45 minutes, Fornetto Mei Chicago will eat the bill.
We Recommend:
- Mei's Handmade Potstickers: Although the once heavily Asian influenced menu at Chicago Fornetto Mei is now devoted almost entirely to Italian fare, Mei's Handmade Potstickers remain on the appetizer menu for good reason. Diners can order a plate of three, six, or twelve of these delicious starters, filled with either Berkshire pork and Napa cabbage or a seafood trio of shrimp, scallops, and crab meat. Either way you order them, Mei's Handmade Potstickers are a treat.
- Sausage & Grape Pizza: Fornetto Mei Chicago's signature pizza, this tantalizing thin-crust Milanese-style pie is topped with Italian sausage, Laurel Chenel goat cheese, red grapes, and fine herbs for a masterpiece of pizza that's as tasty as it is unique.
