Saranello's

We had our intimate Wedding in the beautiful spacious Grand Salon at Saranello's, and it was truly Marvelous. From the top notch service to the phenomenal food. Saranello's is in a great location, connected to the Westin Hotel, which was great for our guests and the whole wedding party. There are also tons of picturesque places throughout the whole building to take photos. Laura, the Event Coordinator truly listened and helped us every step of the way in planning a seamless event our guests and us would never forget. Not to mention the charismatic Bartender who made our "Couple's Cocktails" so delicious. As well as the Lead Server, Raffa whose bright personality and attentive service left quite the impression on everyone he met.

Dear Saranello's Team,

As a florist at Sweety Dream, I have an eye for detail and a deep appreciation for beauty in all forms. Recently, I had the pleasure of working at Saranello's, and I must express my heartfelt gratitude for the exceptional experience your restaurant provided.
From the moment I walked in, I was enchanted by the ambiance. The warm and inviting atmosphere created an enchanting setting for a delightful wedding evening our customers..
Moreover, I want to extend my gratitude to the staff.
I look forward to returning and recommending Saranello's to friends, family, and customers at Sweety Dream.

Warm regards:)

Great place that you might not consider. Kinda hidden away at the front end of Westin hotel right in wheeling on milwaukee Rd. They have several private dining area for small to medium parties and gathering. I would fully recommend it.

Let's start off with the elite moment of the night: The bread 🍞 and the cup of parmesean cheese on the table. Take the olive oil, spread it on a plate and then sprinkle enough parmesean cheese over it that it looks like snow. Next, use the bread (which is great in its own right) to scoop up / shovel delicious olive oil and parmesean cheese directly into your soul.

That was the great. Now for the good. The food was a tad bit salty. Otherwise very good. Baby approved. Didn't see if they had a changing table in the restroom but Stagg was very baby friendly.

Highly recommend the Old Fashion with Bullet Bourbon. The bar tender knows his stuff.

Had a very nice lunch here recently. Service was amazing as usual, the atmosphere is always inviting and warm, and the food was delicious.

Ordered these items: Italian House Salad, Eggplant Parmesan, and Creme Brûlée. Every meal also comes with complimentary bread (that’s evidently fresh). Nothing but great things to say about these items. Salad was moist and tasty, the egg plant parmesan was huge but was cooked to perfection, as was the marinara sauce that was topped on it. Creme brûlée was AMAZING.

Will be back for sure.

We celebrated my great uncle's 100th birthday and it was an incredibly enjoyable experience!

From the entrance to the room we rented to the mimosas for the guests arriving to the very kind & courteous service we rec'd from everyone involved...this was a 5 Star dining experience.

Thank u very much for helping to make this such an enjoyable birthday for our great uncle!

From the cuisine to the service this was a 5 star experience for the price. Very fresh and delicious food and professional and attentive service. Very convenient that the place is opened early over the weekend and has so many tables that allow swift and easy reservation. If you’re in the Westin or nearby, this is a great spot to get some Italian food with good wine.

The service provided by Kristine H in the mornings is unmatched. She is thoughtful, considerate, and kind - a very rare combination these days, and she made my mornings much more pleasant than they would have been otherwise. Overhearing her service at adjacent tables, she goes above and beyond to make each guest as comfortable and satisfied as possible. Kudos are well-deserved!

Great place to eat, and the prices aren't so bad honestly. Our server was so sweet and didn't rush at all (even though we accidentally stayed past closing). The food was great! I don't even like fish, but the white fish and Brussel sprout slaw were amazing! The dining area itself is gorgeous, and the whole experience was a great way to celebrate a birthday!

As a wedding photographer, I had the privilege of capturing the magic of Anahi and Cuyler's special day at Saranello's, and I must say, it's an absolute gem of a venue!

From start to finish, Saranello's offers a seamless experience for couples and their guests. It truly is a one-stop destination, with the convenience of getting ready in the Westin hotel just steps away from the ceremony space. This made it incredibly easy for the couple and their wedding party to prepare and ensured that every moment was flawlessly captured.

The ceremony space itself was nothing short of breathtaking. The ambiance, adorned in emerald green and gold, created an elegant and romantic setting that perfectly complemented the couple's vision. The attention to detail by the talented wedding planner, Lara Jones, was evident in every aspect of the day.

Now, let's talk about the catering! Saranello's truly outdid themselves with their delicious offerings. From appetizers to desserts, the culinary delights were a treat for both the eyes and the taste buds. As a photographer, I couldn't help but capture the joy on the guests' faces as they savored each delectable bite.

The staff at Saranello's were friendly, professional, and incredibly accommodating, ensuring that everything ran smoothly throughout the event. They went above and beyond to create a seamless and enjoyable experience for everyone involved.

In conclusion, Saranello's is a dream venue for any wedding photographer. The combination of a beautiful ceremony space, convenient accommodations, and delectable catering makes it a top choice for couples seeking a truly memorable and magical wedding day. I highly recommend Saranello's to all couples looking to create unforgettable memories on their special day!

This is a really great place. Lisa was helpful in our ordering. Service was very good . Braised short rib ravioli was the best I've had. Large pieces of short rib in Each ravioli. Do tender and juicy.

What a beautiful restaurant for groups or couples. Our server Shayna was the BEST. She went out of her way to to accommodate all the needs of our table and we never felt rushed. I loved how you could have conversations and not have clanging dishes or loud music drowning you out.
The only thing I would improve on is I ordered a large caesar salad and added shrimp for $8.95. The salad was a bit small for a main dish and there were only 4 medium small shrimp on top. Should have been at least 6 possibly more if they are small.
However I would still come again and order something different.

Service was quick and kind. The atmosphere is exactly what you want for a night out for a date or family time. Didn’t want to leave! Steak & pasta were good. I would definitely visit again.

Jaime was my bartender , he made the best dirty martini for me to enjoy in this cold evening ! Very nice people and everything was perfect and very calm and relaxing atmosphere ! Thank you 😊

I recently came to get dinner and I had a wonderful experience. The food was so good, I definitely left with a food coma. Our waitress was absolutely wonderful, very sweet and attentive. I believe her name was Sophia. Overall great experience 👏🏼

From the food to the service to the convenience of the location (inside the Westin hotel) this was a 5 star experience for the price. Excellent value and professional and attentive service.
The pastas and the bread were made to order and fit perfectly in the american palate. If you’re in the Westin or nearby, this is a lovely spot to get some Italian-american pasta.

Looking for a gathering look no further! This is the place you want to host your next party!! Our church held a couples event and they were phenomenal. Everything was great from food to service, the servers were so kind and Lara was so helpful in helping prepare for the event! Thank you all so much for a wonderful event!!! Definitely will be planning another event here!

Absolutely loved the ambiance! I had a graduation dinner here and it was the perfect spot for a large family, very covid safe, and we were able to choose a menu so our guests wouldn’t feel overwhelmed. The dessert was also quite phenomenal! Loved the 3-course meal option for sure.

Had an event here and staff was great! Special thanks goes out to Enrique for making sure everyone was taken care of. Food was amazing! Great atmosphere! Everyone had a great time!

We came for my BD celebration. We ordered Pistachio crusted white fish, grilled trout and grilled scallops with pesto risotto. Everything was so yummy! Excellent service and delicious food! Also as a compliment from Saranello's, they gave us a Chocolate cake. Our waiter was friendly and helpful. We're definitely coming back! Outstanding job, Saranello's!
