Little Italy - Italian restaurant in Dyer - 1155 Joliet St, USA

Being Italian and going to eat at an Italian restaurant is a risky proposition for me. I always find myself comparing to moms home cooked food! So when I was asked to go here, I was apprehensive and a bit reserved. Well, I can tell you without a doubt this place is out of this world good! The atmosphere and food were absolutely spectacular. The only thing that could be improved for me was the sauce, but that is a personal preference from years of my own sauce. However, everything thing else was just superb! They have two sizes for most of the meals, the little or the big Italy. Thank god I ordered the little.... the portions were so large that I could not finish the small ones! Finally, our server Emily was the absolute best food was delivered hot and my drink never went dry! This place was just a pleasure to eat at and well deserved 5 stars!

Gorgeous atmosphere!! We sat near the front door but did not feel exposed or disrupted there. Ordered our "test" foods--calamari, chicken parmesan, and tiramisu. All was good, my meal (vodka pasta w peas) was good--not as amazing the next day as it should be but this is certainly a great spot to cozy up in.

This place is a gem! We've tried other Italian restaurants in NWI but none of them just compares to Little Italy. We always get the little Italy salad and their corn for appetizer (not pictured since we devoured it right away!) and most recently tried their lemon chicken. It was tender and juicy and so flavorful! Sat at the bar this time since we didn't want to wait for a table. 2 lovely ladies were at the bar and were so attentive to our needs while making drinks for everyone as well. Such great customer service. ❤️

Huge portions. Economically priced. Friendly wait staff. Good Italian food. Bring families and friends to help share portions.

We came here for dinner and everything was great! Our server was very fast, attentive, and friendly. The food was very fresh and delicious. I had the gnocchi entree, calamari appetizer, and tiramisu. Everything was excellent, and the portions were very nice with enough to take home. I can't wait to come back another time.
