A polished and energetic restaurant in River North with Italian and Mediterranean influences, Siena Tavern prides itself on offering dishes made in-house, from-scratch. The menu was curated by Dineamic Hospitality's Chef/Partner, Fabio Viviani, also commonly known for his Celebrity Chef accolade as Bravo's "Top Chef Fan Favorite." The décor reflects a hybrid of a rustic Italian market, a fine dining restaurant and a modern, industrial tavern, bridging old world comfort and hospitality with a contemporary menu and design. When setting foot into this 10,000-square-foot eatery for lunch, dinner, happy hour, late night cocktails or weekend brunch, you can expect to taste the same fresh, from-scratch cooking across pastas, pizzas, mozzarellas, gelato and everything in between.

Great food and drinks. Our server was great and made up for the manager/host at the front who was super awkward and unwelcoming when we arrived and he sat us. I remember SienaTavern’s staff always warm and hospitable.

Delicious food, excellent service. We sat outside by choice. It's a beautiful day. Spring brings construction and there was work being done on the street so it was really loud. It was a fantastic meal and the noise was just slightly off-putting.

I enjoyed Siena tavern. The ambiance was energetic. The menu isn’t super extensive. The pasta is made in house which I thought was cool. The lasagna was okay and service was okay. You’re really paying for the location more than anything. It’s a nice date night spot. It’s pretty.

We went in for dinner and drinks, and I found the food to be disappointing. The pasta are all pretty expensive for what they are. Mine was dripping in butter (i love butter but this was over the top), so much soo i had to pour it on to another plate. The service was very slow. It took 15-20 mins to get water and longer for cocktails

Solid, but not quite spectacular. Most of the food was good, but not as good as their bar/dinner fare. I'd consider them again for brunch but it wouldn't be my first choice.

Fun atmosphere and vibe, but the food was underwhelming, especially given how much the server hyped it up. My pizza was overdone and the Chicken Diavolo, which is allegedly their signature dish, was just not that special. I was also charged $25 for a top shelf Manhattan, which seems high even for Chicago.
