Randomly walked in for lunch and it was delicious. The restaurant has a great aesthetic, service was friendly, and lunch portions were just right. We ordered the meatballs app, chopped salad with salmon, chicken wrap, and fries. All was tasty.

The Burger from Passero ROCKS!!
For all of you Burger Lovers out there, this is a DESTINATION BURGER!
Look at the Crust he gets on his Burger in the photo i submitted!
He is the the only Chef in the NW Burbs getting fresh ground meat from Slagel Farms.
He sources only The Best Ingredients for this Burger or he Creates them, like their House Made Pickles.

We got the focaccia for a starter and carbonara & vodka fusili for our mains. All of the dishes were amazing. The real star was the key lime pie- we’ve been waiting for it to come back on the menu and were not disappointed! The crust was delicious and the pie was clearly fresh. Highly recommended for a celebration, date night or just because!

We had a nice dinner experience for the five of us. Service was good and attentive. Food was delicious, including the meatballs w polenta, brussel sprouts and fresh baked pizzas. We recommended it and would be happy to return again! (And we were able to split the hefty & scrumptious peanut butter-chocolate cake)

We had a lovely dining experience at Passero on a beautiful Saturday night, with a perfect sunset and a gorgeous sky setting the tone. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it the perfect place to unwind.

The charred octopus with arugula and fingerling potatoes was absolutely delicious—perfectly tender and beautifully plated. I also really enjoyed the La Rosita aperitif, and my French 75 was amazing—light, crisp, and perfectly balanced.

We shared the Parma pizza, which came topped with fresh arugula. While the ingredients were high quality, it was a bit too heavy on the cheese for my taste, and the glaze was a little overpowering.

Our server was so kind and attentive, which made the whole evening even more enjoyable. Great cocktails, great ambiance, and a memorable night—I’d definitely come back to try more of the menu!

This is our second time dining at Passero in a month and the experience on both the occasion had been fantastic.
We went out for my birthday lunch, the roasted brussel sprouts, stuffed mushrooms and the wild mushroom pizza all were lip smacking delicious, limoncello spritz tied everything together perfectly. Our server was very quick and friendly.
Finally for the dessert, we tried the Dark choc boudino for the first time, and it was delightful.. after coming to know that it was my birthday they took it off of our check..
Overall, the lunch today was superb and very enjoyable.. Will definitely go back again and going to recommend to our friends as well

We visited this restaurant to celebrate a friend’s birthday, and the elegant atmosphere along with the thoughtfully prepared dishes made our time truly enjoyable. It was the perfect setting to share meaningful conversations and create memories.
This is a wonderful place to bring someone special or to host an important guest.
Interestingly enough, among all the dishes we tried, the dessert — especially the cake — left the most memorable impression. It was absolutely delightful.

Went to Passero for their Cin cin hour and was pleasantly impressed with all of the food options! Items ordered included the truffle fries, ravioli, meat slider, classico pizza, and smash burger for happy hour. For entrees we got the carbonara and the rib eye plate. Everything came out fairly quickly and the food runner was very attentive and kind. Upon taking our plates he even offered us new plates for additional food coming out. Food was delicious and would definitely order it all again.

As for our server I wish I could say the same. While we were seated and greeted in a timely manner, we had to request for the happy hour menu to which was acquired from us shortly after. Later, I asked about the gift card promotion and while my questions were answered, the server was quick to deny my usage of it when our bill arrived. I informed her that I purchased my gift card online that day and received the card # and pin via email so if she could just attempt to use it that would be appreciated. After persistence and push back, she was able to use it and apply it to the bill but it shouldn’t take that much just to use a gift card. I hope this would inform your staff that online gift card purchases can be used immediately so no other guests would have to experience this hindrance.

Went to Passero with some family members after they raved about how good it is. They were right ! The food at Passero was excellent. They offer creative Italian dishes, desserts and a have a nice wine and cocktail menu. I had the “A Nice Piece of Fish” which was Alaskan Halibut with a pistachio crust . Great texture and flavor . I also got to try the Sweet Corn Risotto with bay scallops. The scallops were sweet and succulent. Service was also great . Bar and dining area were comfortable . Nice decor throughout. We went at 7:30 on a Thursday night and the restaurant was full

Recently visited this establishment for the first time. We were greeted by a friendly hostess and seated immediately. My salmon bowl was excellent with a nice variety of fresh ingredients. We also ordered Brussel Sprouts with Salmon and they came at two separate times which we didn’t like. We actually thought they forgot about it. The drip coffee was outstanding. Based on one visit, I recommend this local business.
