      Welcome to La Crosta Woodfire Pizzeria Italiana. Here we share our vision of authentic Italian traditional pizza, which dates back to the Greco-Roman period and starts with fresh, high quality ingredients. Many of them are flown in from Italy, including our tomatoes, flour and burrata cheese. Our dough is handmade daily. In fact, La Crosta in Italian means “the crust” and we believe our fluffy crust is the best in the business.

With low lighting, sharp service, and a soundtrack that sets the mood, Le Mistral is equal parts wine bar, cocktail lounge, and cultural café: a place where conversations flow, strangers become friends, and every drink tells a story worth remembering.

      The Gatsby is a prohibition era inspired speakeasy hidden directly above The Bourgeois Pig Cafe, in the center of the historic Lincoln Park neighborhood of Chicago. As fortune would have it, The Gatsby just so happens to be a block away from where the infamous bank robber and gangster John Dillinger was shot and killed by federal agents nearly 100 years ago.
      You are invited to Gatsby’s party!
      As you pass through the hidden entrance and authentic, period steel door, sounds of classic jazz, crooners and big band fill the velvety rooms, and antique portraits in the library study are illuminated by the gentle glow of flickering candles. In some far away room a grandfather clock chimes on the hour. As you ponder the century, our expert bartenders create bespoke prohibition-era cocktails crafted to match the literary vibe of this Great Gatsby inspired speakeasy.

      Great service, very friendly and attentive staff. Food tasted incredible, and both the white sangria and the seasonal sangria were incredible. We sat in the back, which was a little quieter and quainter, but the whole restaurant seemed to have awesome vibes. Will be back very soon for the sangria!

      Whole experience was great - delicious food and excellent service. The wine Owen recommended was unexpected, but was delicious and went perfectly with the range of dishes we’d ordered. Will be going back to try the rest of the menu.
