  Perfect Venue!

  Everything about Salvatore's was perfect. The staff were so helpful, attentive, and friendly, plus they made our night go perfectly! The space is beautiful and we loved that it's a historic building. All of our guests kept complimenting the space & the food, which was absolutely delicious. I could not recommend having your wedding at Salvatore's enough!

  BEST Wedding Venue in Chicago!

  I can't recommend Salvatore's enough for a wedding or event. The team is unbelievable, true professionals! The layout, food, drinks, and service surpassed all our expectations. We loved having separate rooms for different points in the evening. Erin, Marcos, and Cameron ensure everything was perfect down to every detail, we can't thank them enough!

  Highly recommended

  I just wanted to send a note of thanks to you and all the members of the Salvatore’s team for a wonderful event last evening. Karen and I and all of our guests had a fabulous time. It was a lovely venue, the food was all excellent and the service was exceptional! We couldn’t have asked for anything more and we would not hesitate to host another event with you or to recommend you to others. Thank you for everything.

  Excellent Venue to Work With

  My husband and I were originally supposed to get married on Captiva Island, FL, but Hurricane Ian wiped it out, leaving us with 3 weeks to replan our wedding for the same date, just in our home city. Marco was quick to respond to my inquiry and set up a time to meet with me right away. They had the date available and did everything they could do help me put it together in such a short time... and it turned out BEAUTIFULLY! No one would have ever guessed it was supposed to be in FL. The service was amazing, and the food was incredible. The space is a very cute old Chicago feel, and it has a nice outdoor patio/garden area so guests can get fresh air throughout the night. Marco was always quick to respond and did a great job at helping me make sure everything was covered. I would highly recommend Salvatore's and Marco for any of your event needs.

  Perfect wedding celebration

  We had the most perfect wedding for 120 guests at Salvatore's. It was better than I could've imagined, and many guests told us it was best wedding they'd ever attended. We know this is in large part thanks to the beautiful intimate candlelit venue, charming location, flow of ceremony to cocktails to dancing, and an ideal atmosphere for a celebration. From start to finish, Marco and Renata guided us through the planning process and made it clear, easy, and fun. Marco and Renata are true professionals with years of experience in the biz. They were very communicative, quick to respond, and just an absolute pleasure to work with. I had specific visions for many decor elements and Marco made sure the details were all in place. During the wedding and following the ceremony, Renata and the rest of the Salvatore's staff were so warm and supportive, making sure I was fed and had water and had everything I needed. Renata also offered to print an afterparty sign during the reception so that guests could easily see the afterparty details. I cannot recommend the Salvatore's venue and team more. Salvatore's hosted the celebration of a lifetime for me and my now husband, our families, and friends, and I will be forever grateful to everyone who helped make our wedding day perfect.

  Beautiful, well-organized venue for ceremonies and receptions

  We held our wedding at Salvatore's and recommend them as highly as possible. First, Marco and Renata (the managers) were very nice and helpful to us from the first time we contacted them, throughout all the planning stages and the wedding itself. They are very well organized and walked us through everything we needed to do to put the event together. They were also always fast to respond and happy to offer advice on any question we posed. Second, the venue is beautiful both indoors and outdoors (with a covered terrace and garden view), and requires almost no additional decoration. Finally, the food options Salvatore's offers are some of the best we've had anywhere, which they managed to do while also retaining a relaxed atmosphere.
  We also hired Erin, Salvatore's in-house wedding planner and coordinator, to help us with day-of coordination. Erin was instrumental to the ceremony and reception running smoothly, keeping everything on schedule and generally managing the entire evening. Overall, she did a marvelous job and we highly recommend her services along with Salvatore's!

  Gorgeous Venue

  If you are looking for the best venue in Chicago, Salvatore's is it. When my husband and I were looking at venues, we really wanted a venue that was responsive, had amazing food, and didn't require too much additional decor. The venue manager Marco and Renata were just amazing to work with. They were so responsive to my questions and overall so pleasant and professional to work with to create our special day. The food was delicious. We even had a vegan guest who traded desserts with his partner, because the tiramisu was that good. The venue itself is such a beautiful space for our reception for 170 guests. We wanted a much smaller ceremony and had that held on their gorgeous patio. The venue is truly a hidden gem tucked away on a quiet street in Lincoln Park. We loved our wedding and cannot recommend Salvatore's enough!

  Great Wedding Venue!

  My wife and I recently got married at Salvatore’s (May 2022) and we could not have had a better experience! Everything was perfect – the venue, the staff, and the overall wedding package that Salvatore’s provides. Just a phenomenal experience.
  
  First – the venue is absolutely beautiful! My wife and I barely had to bring any additional décor because the venue already had so much charm and character. We held both our ceremony and our reception at Salvatore’s. After the ceremony, our guests transitioned into the spacious cocktail room while the staff flipped the room to set up for dinner. It was so nice just transitioning from one portion of the night to the next without having to plan any logistics/travel. I think our guests really appreciated this as well. Salvatore’s has multiple rooms that you can utilize (including two separate rooms with big bars). They also have a great outdoor patio that our guest could get outside and get some fresh air.
  
  From a pricing perspective – you cannot find a better value downtown Chicago. Everything is handled by the staff at Salvatore’s (food, drinks, valet, set up, etc.), we did not need to worry about bringing in any other vendors. From start to finish they orchestrated the party. The food and the drinks were also great (still thinking about the Tortellini!).
  Finally – the staff was so great to work with! Marco and Renata always took time to answer any questions that we had (no matter if it was 18 months or two weeks before our wedding date). On our wedding day, the entire staff just wanted to make sure my wife and I were having a wonderful time. With all the planning that goes into one day, it’s great to have people reminding you and encouraging you to live in the moment!
  
  We would highly recommend Salvatore’s for any wedding/rehearsal dinner or event! It will always hold a special place in our heart and we cannot thank the staff enough for giving us the experience we both wanted!

  Salvatore's was perfect

  We absolutely loved getting married at Salvatore's and we'd choose it again ten more times. Starting from the discussion phase, Marco and Renata and the rest of the staff were incredibly helpful at nailing down our requests. They worked with us to end up with a tenable situation that played to our vision. Though we had multiple demanding and competing interests, they helped settle them reasonably and effectively. Second, the food was just excellent. Quality and classic Italian food, and every guest complemented us after the fact for the choice. Third, it's just a gorgeous space. We're thrilled looking back at our photos because everything looked so elegant and classy. I cannot recommend it enough!

  Salvatore's is one of the best venues in Chicago!

  I set out looking for an "Classic Chicago" venue. I wanted the dark wood walls and white tablecloths and chandeliers. I found Salvatore's and I loved it the moment I saw it. They made my wedding absolutely perfect. Everything is outstanding. The food, the venue setup, and the customer service is out of this world. Everyone I knew said it was the best wedding that they'd been to. Definitely a cut above your standard banquet hall venue. If you want a beautiful and elegant wedding, you have to book Salvatore's!

  Salvatore's is simply the best!!

  My husband and I could not have chosen a more perfect venue for our dream wedding. Salvatore’s is the best of the best! Renata and Marco are some of the nicest, most accommodating people you’ll ever meet. They were beyond helpful, patient, thoughtful, and selfless. Marco and Renata’s quick accommodations due to changes in our family’s health will never be forgotten. They even made sure to save us some appetizers and tiramisu! They made sure we had everything we needed, throughout our whole wedding planning journey and of course the day of! They were so responsive to our emails and phone calls. We truly couldn’t be happier. The food and service was out of this world. We received tons of compliments about Salvatore’s from our guests. Salvatore’s is a gorgeous hidden gem!

  A wonderful evening

  We found Salvatore's at the recommendation of a friend and were so happy with the experience. The venue is charming and the transitions from ceremony to cocktails to dinner to dancing were seamless. Marco and the staff were very responsive and easy to work with, the food was delicious... honestly, we wouldn't have changed a thing. Oh, and a shout out to Bopology, the band that made the evening complete!

  Great Venue and Great Staff

  The venue is so beautiful, intimate and classic. The staff too are so helpful that beyond our expectations. We were debating if we wanted the day of coordinator, and we didn't get one in the end, but the wedding turned out perfectly with Marco and Renata's professional and responsive coordination and assistances. We feel lucky that we picked the great venue and very thankful to all the staff.

  Great Midsized Venue - Amazing Food - Awesome Value

  We got married at Salvatore's in Fall 2021 (after rescheduling from Fall 2020). The venue itself has a very classic/vintage/timeless look to it with wood paneled walls; and they recently redid the bar. It felt like a wedding venue from a movie. Sherife (owner) and Marco (general manager) were great to work with, and Marco helped me last-minute with a sound system issue with the wedding band.
  
  More importantly, the FOOD IS AWESOME. I've been to many expensive weddings where the food was Meh - just unremarkable or even a little gross. Salvatore's food is actually YUMMY. One of my guests commented that he'd "wished he'd been sitting alone at his table so that he could have gone to town on food." Sherife (the owner) is very involved. She selects good ingredients and many of her staff have been with her for decades.

  More importantly, the FOOD IS AWESOME. I've been to many expensive weddings where the food was Meh - just unremarkable or even a little gross. Salvatore's food is actually YUMMY. One of my guests commented that he'd "wished he'd been sitting alone at his table so that he could have gone to town on food." Sherife (the owner) is very involved. She selects good ingredients and many of her staff have been with her for decades.

  Tens Across The Board

  My wife and I recently got married at Salvatore's and (I know I'm biased, but) it was was the best wedding I've ever been to. People kept commenting on how beautiful the space was, the food was absolutely amazing, and the staff were all so kind and helpful.
  
  Back when we were first searching for a venue, Salvatore's was the clear choice. The moment we walked in, we fell in love with the ambiance. Marco was so helpful and professional throughout the process and went out of his way to make sure we had the wedding we dreamed of.
  
  If I could give a sixth star, I would. Tens across the board. Anyone looking for a venue with personality and class shouldn't pass Salvatore's by.

  Salvatore’s

  We had a smaller dinner event here for roughly 40 people and could not be more pleased with the space/ staff/ services. Working with the coordinator, Marco, was easy-going and pleasant. He was able to find a solution to each of my needs given the event- podium for our speakers, curtains pulled at certain times to encourage the flow of our guests and ambiance. This space is clean with tons of character. The neighborhood is tucked right in to a quiet side street amidst a very popular Chicago area. I could not believe how private and cozy this place was. Professional and attentive staff and food options to please everyone at very reasonable rates. Thanks for a great event space and dinner.

  Perfect wedding reception venue with timeless charm

  We had our wedding reception at Salvatore's on 6/5/21. We had the best time! Throughout the planning process, Marco the GM was super responsive and helpful in answering our questions and requests. He is a pro! Our wedding tasting was fun - for our dishes, we chose penne with vodka sauce, tortellini, and chicken vesuvio - plus the tiramisu for dessert, yum! Our guests are raving about the delicious food, the great food/drink service, and how much they loved the venue. Salvatore's has timeless charm and plenty of space for our 100 guests. It was an awesome value and with all the food and drink served in-house, it streamlined the planning process significantly. We would highly recommend Salvatore's to any couple looking for their perfect wedding venue. 10 out of 10!

  When we were looking for wedding venues back in 2019, our first stop was Salvatore’s. It’s a classic events place right in the heart of Lincoln Park in Chicago. We loved the place right away. We went to look at another venue just for the sake of checking another place but Salvatore’s had our hearts already the very first time we walked in. We booked them for May 17, 2020 but then Covid happened. We are just so happy that after a year of postponing our original wedding plans, we finally got married at Salvatore’s last weekend. We had both our ceremony and reception there. It was a little smaller and more intimate than what we had originally planned but we loved everything that Salvatore’s had done to make our wedding day a very special and memorable one. It was all we had ever imagined and so much more!
  
  We would like to thank Marco, the General Manager of Salvatore’s for going above and beyond to make our special day run so smoothly.
  
  We highly recommend Salvatore’s!

  Hidden Gem!

  We had originally planned our wedding to be June 13th of 2020 due the pandemic things got crazy as you can imagine and our wedding had to be postponed till May 8th 2021.
  
  During this process there was a new owner and manager of the venue. Marco swopped right in to confirm every detail and made sure we constantly were both on the same page! This brought me A LOT of peace and ease to know how on top of it he was!
  
  During the whole process before the wedding with the set up and where I wanted things he was patient, personable, and willing to help and offer suggestions!
  
  Both Marco and the owner were amazing to work alongside with. They took all the stress off my shoulders especially on the actual wedding day, even the waiters were amazing and very on top of everything!
  
  The food was out standing. The location of Salvatore's is perfect for a city wedding. It truly is a hidden gem and the inside is more beautiful!
  
  My husband and I were so grateful for all of Marco and the owners hard work! Definitely recommend any event here but especially your wedding!!

  Salvatore's is the Best!

  Salvatore's was the best! Marco, Reggie, and all the staff were amazing and attentive. They went above and beyond for our ceremony and it truly felt like we were working with friends. Marco was so communicative and responsive throughout the entire process, and so flexible.
  
  
  They are processional and experienced and know exactly what they are doing to make the day so special, and are completely open to making nearly any vision you have work. For example, we discussed a floor layout, but once the tables were all set up, we decided that the shape would be too tight. Marco and Reggie were so accommodating and reorganized the room last minute to make it work.
  
  We HIGHLY recommend Salvatore's if you are considering an absolutely beautiful venue, delicious food, and the friendliest staff and planners ever.

  Hidden Gem in Lincoln Park!

  My husband and I had our wedding at Salvatore’s on May 18, 2019. It’s a hidden gem in Lincoln Park and we are so happy we stumbled upon it! The venue is classic and elegant. It fit our 140 guests perfectly. The price is just incredible for a downtown Chicago wedding. We loved that we paid one price for everything and didn’t have to worry about upgrading so many details because everything that comes with Salvatore’s is top notch. Suzi and Lauran were amazing to work with! From the very beginning they are so helpful with every little detail and they truly know their stuff. Our favorite part by far was the food! My favorite part of wedding planning was easily the tasting. We did family style with caesar salad, two pastas and one chicken dish. Our guests still haven’t stopped talking about how delicious all of the food was and they were so happy they got to try a little bit of everything. I was so happy to hear that we got a wedding cake or tiramisu included too, but the tiramisu is hands down the best we’ve ever had! The service during dinner was exceptional. The bar selection was perfect and came with many options in beer, wine and liquors. The bartenders were outstanding and no one waited long for a drink. We loved having two bars with one removed from the dance floor for guests who needed a quick break from dancing too. Our wedding was an unforgettable night and we are so happy we had it at Salvatore’s!

  Amazing venue!!

  Salvatore’s was amazing! I fell in love with Salvatore’s the moment I walked inside. I loved the location and the beauty of the venue. I also loved the atmosphere and feel of the venue. Suzi and Lauran were wonderful to work with. They were responsive and helpful. They also were meticulous and made sure to get all of the details right. I wouldn’t have been able to have gotten through my day without them. And then there was the food. It was fantastic and so good. My favorite was the vodka pasta, but everything was delicious. I received numerous compliments on the food and the overall beauty of the venue. I highly recommend Salvatore’s.
