The Scene – Edgebrook's reputation as a suburb within the city follows to this Brazilian eatery, a multicultural gathering spot for families and diners curious enough to travel that far west. Long wooden beams criss-cross the ceiling, calling to mind a cozy lodge space with recessed lighting and earth tones. Steel black chairs surround tables for four, spaced enough apart to accommodate servers pushing carts of pasta from table to table. Owners frequently engage in friendly chats with locals. – – The Food – Traditional family-style galeteria food--oven-fired chicken,…

Great Place to go with a group-

by ChicagoGal26 at Citysearch

This restaurant is small with a very crowded feeling. Also found it too warm inside. Went for what I thought would be a romantic dinner but it does not have that kind of environment. Better suited for groups or with friends. This is a fun place with great food and music. The band was wonderful and started playing at 7pm. It does get very loud and is hard to hear each other talking. We really liked everything served except for the chicken, found that dry. The tenderloin and lamb were outstanding, best we ever had. The 3 different pastas were made with excellent sauces. Went for the all you can eat and they made sure we had plenty left over to take home. Our server was excellent and explained dishes and why the owner cook prepares them a certain way. We did not need seconds but our server came over twice to ask if we wanted more of anything. We do not usually spend $30 per person for food but would return in a minute for this delicious spread.

  • Pros: All u can eat
  • Cons: noisy

Will never visit this restaurant again

by 1Liz at Citysearch

I was really surprised to see such unpleasant service as we had at Al Primo Restaurant. Drinks order was taken app 15 min after we got seated. We ordered all you can eat menu which turned out that we tried cold pasta and some meat. Even if we wanted to order more we couldn’t because our server kept avoiding our table. No to mention our water glasses where never refilled. We will never go back to this restaurant again.
