I am in Chicago on business and went to Volare for dinner last night on the recommendation from a couple who were having drinks in my hotel bar. They sent me over after calling Benny at Volare, and I was given star treatment. Benny sat me outside and introduced me to some regulars who were dining nearby. I had the osso buco, which was delicious. I had the risotto milanese on the side, which had been highly recommended by the couple I met. That was scrumptious too with just the right amount of saffron and complemented the risotto perfectly. The service was attentive but not overbearing. I will definitely be frequenting this place when I am in town.
