The Disotto Burger.
The place was not packed at 1pm, but would imagine it gets very busy sometimes.
Brussels sprouts
Fresh, house made Cavatelli with burrata and smoked chicken. Very nice.
Patio at Disotto
Drinks on the patio!
Manhattan
Basement dining area. Nice decor and ambiance. Rustic meets modern styles.

My first review of Disotto, although I've eaten here before. Also, this was ordered through Uber Eats. I tried the Brussels Sprouts, which has aFarm egg, crispy prosciutto, Calabrian chilies, pecorino. I've eaten Brussels sprouts at so many restaurants and they serve it a little differently here -- chalk that up to the chilies and the fried egg. The sprouts were perfectly done, firm but also very chewable and the addition of the egg gives a little richness and the chilies add a little bite.I also ordered the Pizza Con Salsiccia which is made with vodka sauce, Italian sausage, fresh mozzarella, shallots, Calabrian chili breadcrumbs. The vodka sauce gave a nice creaminess and there was a generous topping of Italian sausage. The crust was very thin and crisp. The cheese didn't hold up to the delivery. It was a little lukewarm.The Uber driver did a good job at delivering promptly. I just think that the pizza would have been better dining in at the restaurant.I loved the complimentary focaccia with the seasoned olive oil dipping sauce. The bread was soft and like a sponge it drank up the olive oil. That would be delicious made into a sandwich.Overall, a good meal but as with other restaurants, it's better to dine in. I like the menu, the cacio e Pepe and carbonara look good, not to mention the desserts!

Might be the most tasteless food I've had in a while. The calamari was overly greasy / fried. Just tasted like grease. The pizza was so bland that it was hard to eat. Really disappointed in the experience. Won't be coming back.

First time trying this spot and we had a great time, and definitely will be going back. Although there was one or two tables on the dining area the manager recommended the bar as the birthday party was somewhat loud. It was a good call. Tuesday bar tender was fantastic as well as the food.The manager checked up on us several times too.Good vibe for a Friday night. Highly recommend!

Came in with a friend on a Monday night. The. Place was packed but luckily we were able to get a nice table tucked in the corner of the patio. We settled on splitting several dishes to maximize the menu. We started with the beet salad, which was light, perfectly dressed, and a nice balance of flavors. We moved on to Brussel sprouts which were a total miss. Over oiled and overcooked, they were basically inedible. Luckily the pasta (orichette with sausage) was a sufficient portion to satisfy us both. The complementary bites of focaccia were delicious. Our server was friendly and attentive but not overbearing. I'd return for sure!

We enjoyed a couples dinner here--It was our first visit and we were seated at a nice booth. The ambiance is terrific-- the exposed brick, wood and lighting combine for a chill dinner vibe. The Service was timely and friendly. Everyone enjoyed their food-- we started with the calamari --it was crispy with little oiliness. The mixed salads were nicely done as well. The entrees were thumbs up-- the chicken parm, scallops, branzino, and linguini with clams. All in all this is one of the better Italian places we've experienced on the North Shore.

This review is for lunch for two at the bar on a Sunday in mid-March.service: Gretchen P. was our bartender and did an awesome job. The manager was also engaging and professional.bar: I started with a Disotto Bloody Mary ($15, as of 03/2024). Note there are Bloody Mary versions with candied bacon or slider as garnish! The Maplewood IPA ($10 as of 03/2024) was an exceptional beer. Kudos for having a Chicago-land IPA available. With our meal, my wife drank a Donna Laura Ali Toscana Rosse ($12) which is a great wine. food: We split the Italian Chopped ($16 as of 03/2024), so what you see in the photo is a HALF portion. We also split the Disotto Burger ($20) which the kitchen was nice enough to also split. Special mention for the excellent fries. details: Theme is Italian and wine with lots of cute décor. The place was not packed at 1pm, but would imagine it gets very busy sometimes. We found street parking, but that might be an exception, not the rule.

We went to Disottos for the first time and can't wait to go back! Cute ambiance inside and outside plenty of street parking. Our server was Jesus. So knowledgeable and fun! He and his team were prompt and well trained. We had a delicious Italian wine. And they serve you a tender bruchetto with olive oil dipping sauce. We ordered a crispy chicken on a homemade pasta with an amazing vodka sauce and arugula with Parmesan. Wow! So good! It was so crispy and the chicken was juicy and tender. We also got the spaghetti. The fresh pasta is delicious here. We never get desserts but tried the frittata cinnamon balls and dipped them in hot fudge and strawberry yum. Planning our next meals here. Such a treasure this restaurant and it's workers are!

BEWARE WORST RESTAURANT IN HIGHWOOD!!!! First time dining at Disotto horrible experience from the food to the service. Adorable interior but severely lacking in all other areas. We ordered two pizzas they weren't flavorful just meh, seafood pasta a couple of clams smelled off, pasta with marinara..my friend complained her pasta tasted like faucet water..well sadly it's because the pasta water that was used to cook their pasta had not been changed in a while, so basically old pasta water gives that flavor. You're an italian restaurant change your pasta water daily!!! For dessert we ordered the chocolate cake it was stale and tiramisu again average not memorable. I don't know how this place has an average four star rating. If I could give them zero stars I would. Will never return.

My husband and I took my mom out to eat here. We arrived around 8:30pm and were able to eat comfortably without feeling rushed. The wait staff forgot our bread and mixed up our orders but made up for it with a slice of cake at the end of our meal. We ordered orecchiette, risotto, and pappardelle. The pappardelle in meat sauce felt saucy but was bland, but the mushroom risotto and orecchiette with sausage and veggies were tasty. We enjoyed a Brussels sprouts starter as well. We would definitely come back for the ambiance and the service, as we felt these really made up for the just-average food.

This place stays busy and it's certainly no wonder. It's not a quiet place to eat but the food is incredible, the service is great, and it's got a cozy atmosphere.
