- Local Gem- don't judge a book by its cover!My wife and I made a reservation here on a Saturday Night as we were going to a play at the North Riverside Theater. It is an unassuming place, with a "Chicago" brick exterior off the main drag. We went in and the joint was hopping. The walls are filled with vintage photos of famous people eating spaghetti- M. Monroe, D. Martin, etc. etc. Great Italian vibe. Our waitress was busy but had a great smile and would stop by to check on us. I ordered the Spaghetti and Meat Balls- this is my benchmark meal at an Italian restaurant. The noodles should be a perfect Al dente, the sauce should have a bright, acidic tomato sauce, and the meatballs should be firm with the right combo of pork and beef, with parsley and oregano. Village Pub hit all the right notes on the Spaghetti and Meatballs! Natalie was a peach. The whole experience was what a local, Italian Restaurant should be.

- The food was AMAZING!!! I had angel hair pasta with garlic oil and a side of meatballs. Hubby had the chicken vesuvio salad. Plus we ordered the spinach and artichoke dip. OMG!! Everything had great flavor. Dessert was a slice of tiramisu and I may have licked the plate. Lol. Amy was our server and she was a gem! Definitely going back.read moreread lessYolanda L.5/10/2026
