Pesto Italian Bistro - Park Ridge

Food was great! Lunch came with rice balls and Cesar salad. Very cute outdoor area with fans. Service was awesome! We enjoyed it so much and would definitely come back.

Our first time service and food were amazing. We will be back!

Visiting from the suburbs of Philadelphia found this place… and WOW what a treat. Amazing food great atmosphere lovely staff. Thank you for an amazing experience.

Food was excellent and service was very friendly! It’s a cute little place but not overly cushy. Will definitely be going back

How this place is rated 4.5 stars has me totally confused. No pasta or wine served at an Italian restaurant? We were offered vodka instead?? Bread and butter were the best part of the meal. Bread was warm and had a nice pull to it. Appetizer of fried zucchini (1/8 thick coins, battered and with no recognizable flavor), cauliflower (tasty), 2 overcooked shrimp and rubber hose calamari, served with a flavorless orange paste and a pesto olive oil. Entrees served over what tasted like instant mashed potatoes? Veal saltimbocca that had a 'jerky ' quality to it and chicken cachatorie, that seemed a large chicken finger, topped with a flavorless red sauce, which had a few strips of red pepper amd cannedushrooms? sauteed in. This was one of the worst meals of my life. AND I got to pay over $90 for it... Ugh.
