    How to be waited on in the best way possible. "Go on a down time when the place is not crowed". Then you can experience the wonderful food and staff. Jaclyn our sever was very helpful with the menu and the specials and what they can do for you.They even have wheat pasta if needed. Everything we had was delicious. I'm so pleased to say I got to have a great time with my family for the Holidays. The wait staff was so sweet and kind and so where we. You will be amazed how people treat you when you are a real down to earth good person.Put yourself in there shoes and work a job like that before you put them down. Learn how many chain of command they go though to get you your food. I do agree about part of the setting if "crowed" though. Merry Christmas and a safe New Year too all.

    New restaurant, better menu, great staff and management! The folks from Chicago Prime steakhouse in Schaumburg have done a great job with their latest restaurant, Chicago Prime Italian. They have taken over the location of the former Rosebud restaurant and the changes are all for the better. We had the opportunity to to sample the Rosebud menu before they folded up shop and frankly, it was tired. The same old trite enormous portions of mediocre food. The new Chicago Prime Italian has reworked the menu with a lot of standards with better execution, along with some really interesting new takes. We started with the bacon wrapped scallops. I commented that these may have been the best I've had, including my own. The scallops were done perfectly, not over or under cooked, the most common problem, and the bacon was crispy without being charred. As noted above, excellent execution. We followed that with a recommendation from our waitress, Melissa; the Eggplant Salad. Be prepared, this thing is huge and could easily be a nice shareable appetizer for 3 or 4 people. Thin slices of eggplant covered in breadcrumbs and deep fried, stacked with tomato, mozzarella and arugula then lightly touched with a balsamic glaze. It was fantastic. My initial thought was that it would that heavy, soggy fried eggplant like you get in eggplant parm.. but it was anything but. The eggplant was light, crispy on the outside and wonderfully tender inside. The balsamic glaze was the perfect accent to round out the other flavors. We went for the Sea Bass as our entree. Most of the fish and I assume the chicken and veal dishes can be made a variety of ways. We chose the "fresca" (I may have that wrong) for our sea bass. Lightly sauteed with fresh tomato and other veggies over the top. Very fresh and light, which is exactly what we were looking for. The fish itself was cooked just right and the fresca salsa was a nice addition to brighten up the whole thing. Lastly, our waitress, Melissa, was truly impressive. She was attentive without hovering or being overbearing. She had solid recommendations based on what we were looking for and she split the plates right at the table for us. Clearly, the Chicago Prime focus on exceptional service has carried over to the new place as well. I'm happy to see the Rosewood dinosaur replaced by a family who really has passion about their restaurants, their menu and their clientele. It's an experience and a pleasure to eat at Chicago Prime Italian. We'll definitely be back soon.

    The food here is delicious. My husband had the chicken vesuvio and loved it. I am vegetarian and asked if they could make me a dinner of roasted vegetables although it was not on the menu. The waiter said yes and came back with a beautiful dish of roasted vegetables with a carved tomato stuffed with bread crumbs in the center. It was outstanding. The bread is also very good. We also ordered bruschetta which was excellent. The waiter was very attentive and kept checking back on us to see if we needed anything and to see if we liked it. The manager also went to the tables and asked how people liked their meal. The front room was kind of noisy though so we will ask for the back room next time.

    What a great restaurant! The ambiance is wonderful and the staff is top notch! They definitely know their menu and how to sell their product! The manager, Andy, was very courteous and made sure we were well taken care of. The square noodle vodka sauce was amazing, especially since the noodles are homemade! I'm typically not a fan of bread pudding, but theirs was phenomenal! I would highly recommend to Chicago Prime Italian to anyone looking for some good food and a fun time with live music!!!!!

    I am from out of town and stayed at the Double Tree Hotel. I was so excited to see Chicago Prime Italian within walking distance. I was fortunate enough to dine at the steakhouse a few years back and couldn't wait to try this restaurant. In short, this place is awesome. Extremely friendly staff: we were greeted by a sweet host, waited on by Victor who took great care of us and checked in on from the Manager of the restaurant frequently. The food is fantastic. Portions are huge, so bring your appetite! You can't go wrong w their pastas, and I highly recommend their marinara sauce. My son's Mac and cheese could have been the best Mac and cheese I've ever eaten. Great wine list and the staff is knowledgable to recommend pairings. With a full bar, start w

    Our party of three chose this restaurant for Christmas Eve dinner and the service was very good. But when it came time to pay the bill, they refused to accept two one hundred dollar gift cards, one American Express and the other a Visa. We spent $160 between us and planned to leave a 25 percent tip for the server, using up the total value of the cards on this one dinner for three people. I might have expected that they would not want to absorb any fees on a lesser amount, such as a take-out pizza but, for what we spent on passable but not great food, they should have gladly taken the gift cards. We will not be going back.

    First of all Marco was outstanding, the steamed mussels had a very good sauce but the mussels were too small. They give you tons of bread which becomes a problem when the main course comes. I had the chicken Palermo, the portion was huge, it's basically chicken Parmigiano with a layer of egg plants on top. Enough for two people. I thought the chicken was too tick, I prefer a thin sautéed version. All in all it definitely won't leave you hungry but very pricey for this type of food. Next time I'll try the Cioppino it looked good but at $43.00?? There are better options out there for a lot less money

    I love this place! Anytime I'm looking to have a business lunch, nothing beats the atmosphere of Chicago Prime Italian. It's professional and comfortable. The service is always impeccable and the food is delicious. I usually opt for the buffet--as you can't beat all those great options--all for $15. AND, you get dessert. Yum! LOVE the cannoli!

    Excellent ambiance and even has a nice small romantic outside patio dining option. The minestrone is on point like nana's home made italian feel. I suggest trying the chicken calabrese which comes with 2 pieces of breaded chicken smothered in calabrese peppers served over potatoes and a lemony sauce loaded with small peppers. This is a heavy portion of food and easily can be shared. Very business friendly location and perfect for a meeting or a few drinks after work. Wait staff is extremely comforting and the restaurant is exceptionally clean. Highly recommended and I am a frequent diner with every intention of continuing to dine at this wonderful location.

    Rosebud?! I guessed I missed the memo on name change. Premium food at premium prices with premium portions But they're good. Been here under new and old name several times. Would recommend

  • David B.

    The poor rating is due to the extremely slow service. The food was really very good. The interior is unchanged from when this was the Schaumburg Rosebud. But the menu is very different. While the offerings are less interesting than Rosebud, typical Italian dishes are well represented. The preparation is excellent and the presentation is OK. Except for the pathetic side salad which was very limp and uninteresting. But the service, at least on this night, was so pathetic that it completely spoiled the dining experience. And it may just have been the fault of our waiter, who had to recheck the drink order twice and had to return to check the food order a second time as well. For some reason he was unable to write the order down and tried to rely on a shaky memory. I MIGHT be willing to try the restaurant one more time, but would walk out if this were again the server. So, try the place. You'll like the food, but make sure you don't have anywhere else to be.

    Had a dinner date on Thursday, 730pm resv. Although it was quite crowed, they seated us right away. Our server was awesome, gave great recommendations and super attentive. The goat cheese app was delicious, I think I devoured most of it. He had the lasagna, I had the rigatoni in vodka sauce. Huge portions and both were excellent. Our date couldn't have been more perfect, we talked until we were the only ones left, well past closing time. Def going back.

    We came here for my mom's birthday on a Friday night. We were immediately seated as there were many open tables. We ordered the mussels as an appetizer. The sauce was great but the mussels themselves were not washed well--there was so much sand that it was almost unbearable to eat. I had the chicken caprese, which was HUGE. I was able to eat the leftovers for 3-4 additional meals. Our waiter seemed new since he appeared puzzled every now and then. He was really nice and brought my mom a free dessert when he found out it was her birthday. There was live music playing near the bar but the music was a hit or miss (there was one girl singing who sounded like she was screaming). Overall, my experience at Chicago Prime Italian was okay. If I ever come back, I'll remember to avoid the seafood.

    My bf and I tried this place out for dinner Saturday. Considering it was Saturday we were happy to get in without a problem. We asked for a quieter, corner table which they nicely accommodated for us. Water and bread were brought out immediately. The bread was hot and delicious. I'm afraid I don't know the name of our servers but the receipt said "Party 5." My bf has food allergies and our server made recommendations that he could have and said he would notify the kitchen. We both loved our dishes (Orecchiette Salsiccia and Gnocchi Bolognese) and each had more than enough for a second meal. A really nice find that's close to us. Thanks for a great dining experience!

    I had an entire review written out in draft about how I was not happy with the food and the service but was waiting to post it until I visited again. I'm so glad I waited to post my review because since then I've gone again & again & again! And each time since my initial visit has been fantastic. On my initial visit we felt like our waiter didn't want us to be there and wasn't very interested in service. However every time we've gone to Chicago Prime Italian since then, we've had excellent service. A couple servers in particular are very attentive and friendly. I've now tried a wide variety of dishes including their lunch time buffet so let me break it all down. Chicken Prosciutto for $14. I was surprised it came with pasta and such a decently sized portion. I was a bit let down that the chicken was billed as chicken prosciutto and having had a similar dish at other restaurants in which the chicken was wrapped in prosciutto or stuffed with it - this dish was chicken covered in mushrooms, onions and chopped up tiny pieces of prosciutto. I liked the dish but it just wasn't exactly what I was expecting. Salmon Salad $15 - Huge chunks of perfectly cooked salmon with great flavor. Huge salad in general lined with hard boiled eggs & tomatoes. Loaded with olives, as well. Loved everything about this salad! Lunch buffet $15 - Their buffet includes many items including caprese salad, meatballs, potatoes, chicken dishes, eggplant dishes, calamari, fruit and dessert! If you haven't been to Chicago Prime before it may be a good starting point for you. Chicken Pesto Wrap - This is a great dish if you're looking for something a little lighter but even this is quite a big portion. Chicken is cooked perfectly and everything goes together quite well in this dish. Chicago Prime Italian is just a couple minutes from my company so it's turned into a regular lunch spot for coworkers and myself. Their menu is quite expansive so I think they could benefit from trimming it down just a bit to focus on the dishes they offer that are truly amazing. Also, they need to update their website so it properly reflects their offerings. They don't list many of their lunch items including wraps & sandwiches online which may deter people from visiting in the afternoon.

    Rosie was our server and she was awesome and attentive. I had 2 small children and they made sure to keep them happy. They even brought ice cream for them. The food oh my goodness it was great nice sized portions. I will definitely be coming back and seeing Rosie she was well worth the price of admission.

    First time experience was today. (Mothers day) because we had a few people in the party who were late they made my poor mom wait by the door where it was freezing. They refused to seat us until we all arrived. Then we had to walk around the bar to get our food which was a buffet. Honestly heard great things about this place but the buffet was no good and we were super disappointed. $200 a couple turned out to be a huge downer. It is too bad because it deters us from returning on a normal business day.

    Got to try this out on Restaurant Week 2015. My brother and I tried the lunch buffet, which we figured would give us a taste of a bunch of their food. The food was ok overall, nothing special, not from a place associated with Chicago Prime, but the service was not good at all. I feel bad for the Valentine's day couple that had bad service and we didn't get it quite as bad but it was not good. Food: there are some items that were served that were not on the restaurant week menu, noted with a *. I'd consider this bait and switch. Fruit Salad - this was the freshest and most tasty of the foods Fried Calamari - not the best I've had, the rings are ok, the tentacles are crispy and tasted pretty good *Fried Fish - horrible batter, it was some crispy some soft, like a biscuit, the tartar sauce was very good though *Tilapia with capers - found a bone on my first bite, did not finish eating it, I don't do bones *Chicken Milanese - chicken was very tender, not a lot of taste, the mushrooms were good, so was the sauce *Beef Stew - the beef was wonderfuly tender, the best of the meats Orecchiette Marinara - pasta w/ marinara, nothing special *Green Beans Almodine - green beens are a bit overdone, but probably cuz it sits in the heating trays Tiramisu - good coffee taste, filling was a nice sweetness Chocolate Cake - looked and tasted like a brownie Cannoli - great outside and inside, the pistachios on the outside were actually peanuts dyed green... Cheesecake - this was a rubbery mess Service: The hostess gave us a weird, almost disgusted, look when we said we did not have reservations (it was 1130 and 3/4 of the place was empty, when we left it was 1230 and half the place was still empty. Not sure why she gave us that look. The waitress gave us very little attention once she realized we were ordering the buffet, did she think we were cheap? At some point she walked by and said how's everything? and kept walking as I tried to ask her if there was supposed to be bone in the fish. She stopped after she got to the next table and turned around and said, well it's fish, it has bones. Right.... but it looks like a filet, I believe it shouldn't be served with bones. So she said she'd ask the kitchen. After walking by 3 more times I eventually stopped to ask her what the answer to the bones was. She said, I asked them, sometimes fish has bones, it's a fish, it has bones, it happens. No apology for the staff not filleting / cleaning properly. Just acted like I was stupid for asking if there were supposed to be bones in the fish. Later she took away our oil and cheese without asking and gave them to another table and dropped off the bill without telling us it was there so we waited stupidly for a while to ask her for the bill. This service is just not good. On the plus side, the bus buys were very good at keeping water in the glasses and the tables cleared of dishes.

    My valentine's day dinner was ruined. I normally do not leave reviews but if you have a couple like my boyfriend and I who wanted to give it a shot and have a romantic dinner, I want to warn you first. We arrived to the restaurant, disappointed there wasn't any valet, but that didn't ruin our night. We entered the restaurant and two women were standing directly in front of the hostess stand. We thought they were customers because they were dressed in regular clothes. The actual hostess had to move to look around them and ask for our name. She then gave one of the women who was standing there our menus and told her where to take us. We waited a good 10 to 20 seconds for her to finish her conversation with her friend before she finally turned around, acknowledged us, and took us to a table. Our server came and was nice. I ordered Moscato and he ordered an apple martini (which we later sent back because it was TOO strong and tasted bad...we never send drinks back). We ordered minestrone soup and meatballs for our appetizers. The soup was delicious, but the meatballs were not. As I mentioned, my boyfriend is a chef and his best dish is meatballs, so we like trying them wherever we go. They were some of the worst ones we have ever tasted. The sauce was good, a simple sauce, but sometimes less is more. For our meals I ordered fettuccine alfredo. It was good, nothing special. My boyfriend ordered veal parmesan. He said it wasn't the worst, but it has too much cheese (coming from a cheese lover), was soggy, and didn't have the best flavor. We weren't completely disappointed with our meals, but I've had better food at maggianos. Another disappointing thing was as the restaurant began to fill up, more and more couples were coming in wearing jeans and sneakers. I was expecting a fine dining experience but was dining with other couples who looked like they were at Applebee's. (This disappointed me mostly because of my expectations and that it was not the experience I wanted for valentine's day). It was also VERY cold. We were uncomfortable the entire time. After dinner we passed on getting dessert. We decided to try to enjoy a few drinks at the bar. We paid our bill and went to the bar. There were only 2 open seats since they were busy at this point. The seats were not beside one another so my boyfriend asked the male bartender if it would be okay to move the seats together. The bartender replied with "if you can find something" in a tone like we were bothering him. .....Okay then! my boyfriend brushed it off and we got our seats together. As we were sitting down he asked the female bartender for a drink menu. She was an older female, light brown hair if I remember correctly. She turned around grabbed two menus and then proceeded to toss them onto the bar in front of us. If we wouldn't have caught them, they would have slid right onto the floor. She didn't look at us, let us know she will come back, nothing. THIS is what sealed the deal and ruined our experience. We were shocked by her behavior. Both bartenders were rude. Busy or not, this is not acceptable. We can pay high-end prices somewhere else with better service. We got up to leave immediately and she returned and asked if we changed our minds. My boyfriend was trying his hardest to not let anything ruin our time so he simply said yes, we changed our mind. She then proceeds to say "you know if you turn the menu over it has a back too". Excuse me??? She must have thought we looked stupid. My boyfriend replies, "actually we didn't even read the menu. We are not happy with the bad attitude we have been given". She looked confused (I'm sure she was very confised, she must treat lots of people this way and doesn't even realize how rude she is). She didn't apologize. She questioned us saying "what attitude? Did I say something?" And my boyfriend said it's fine, it's fine and we got our coats. She started asking the other customers seated around us if she had an attitude, still not apologizing to us. My boyfriend chose not to complain to the manager because it was valentine's day and we didn't want to ruin it even more than it already had been. If it were any other day, we would have immediately asked for the owner. You simply do not give off the impression of fine dining and then allow people with everyday clothes come in, offer below average food, AND have staff with bad attitudes. We will never get our first valentine's day together back. It was supposed to be special, and we were so excited. Now we only have a bad experience to look back on.

    Food was decent, but overpriced. Our waitress didn't offer up the specials of the day. We found out about them after we got our food from the waiter at the table next to us. Was expecting some of the touches of an upscale Italian restaurant which weren't there. Some fresh basil, fresh cracked pepper, shaved parmesan for the pasta dishes would have gone a long way. Don't plan on going back.

    Had the pleasure of eating at this wonderful restaurant last night with my wife for a nice New Years Eve dinner. We have never dined here before and were a bit unsure how it would go. Upon arriving the building was beautiful outside and in, very welcoming from the get go. We had a 7pm reservation and noticed that we might be a few minutes late on our way in. I gave the restaurant a call and was told not to worry we would be taken care of. That seemed to be the theme of the night as the owner greeted and showed us to our table talking with us and making us feel at home. Once at our table, our server was prompt to get our drink order and explain the menu to us. He mentioned that he used to work in the kitchen and is now serving and had a very detailed description and knowledge of each dish. At a first glance there was a bit of sticker shock with the prices but every dish we enjoyed was above and beyond my expectations. My wife had the Lasagna, a huge piece of an Italian classic that was to die for. I had the Veal Marsala that was out of this world. The Veal was cooked perfectly and the rich marsala mushroom sauce paired well with each bite. Both my wife and I enjoyed one of if not the best caesar side salads we have had in a long time eating out. To round out the night we enjoyed the Tiramisu and Cheesecake, both generous in size and outstanding in flavor. Being a Chef in the industry it is hard to find a nice place to enjoy a great dinner. Our experience tonight at Chicago Prime Italian was an unforgettable night and we will definitely be back. We also look forward to the opportunity to trying out the restaurants sister location Chicago Prime Steak. This Father Son restaurant duo is doing a great job and I wish the best for them with the new year and many more to come. Chris Rybicki Sous Chef Kemper Lakes GC.

    BEAUTIFUL SPACE, GREAT SERVICE, AND WONDERFUL FOOD! Went there for my mothers birthday dinner and we were all very impressed.

    From the moment we walked in the door, the staff was friendly and attentive, our server was so knowledgeable and could have sold me the (delicious) free bread. The filet..oh the filet.. Cooked perfectly, and the presentation: the crust looked photoshopped, decadent. The atmosphere was relaxing, the food was fantastic, and service was stellar, we'll definitely be back soon!

    We dined there on a Sat night in Apr '15. They rapidly became extremely busy by 7PM, so res. are absolutely necessary. The veal marsala, 3 good-sized flattened slices, was tender and covered richly with a slightly sweet sauce, and smothered in mushrooms. Very delicate and enjoyable. It came with a side of pasta. The specials menu had a scallop-over-pasta dish with dried tomatoes (very tender) and broccoli. Another winner, and a generous portion. A list of vegetable sides was available at extra cost, but we did not try them. The wine, a pleasant Chateau St Jean cabernet, had just enough "oak" to please without overloading the delicate flavored entrees. Dinners run from about $15 to $45, and sides add about $9. Wines begin about at $7. Our server Marco was cordial, pleasant and capable. The bar in the next room was huge and very busy. Decor and facilities were pleasant and clean. Valet pkg. available. Our only disappointment was that the place was extremely noisy once it filled up. It seems like one can hear everyone else in the room talking at once. That can become tiring and can push you to get up and leave, which I guess is the reason it is that way. We would prefer a quieter time or place. The Chicago Prime Steakhouse a few miles north (same ownership) is also a nice place to dine, but has more of a quiet, intimate feeling.

    As frequent guests at Chicago Prime Steakhouse, last night was my first experience at Chicago Prime Italian and it was nothing less than impressive. One thing that the Schaumburg restaurant scene has been missing is a quality Italian place and CPI fills the hole very nicely. We started with drinks at the bar which were made quite well, had an old fashion (made correctly). We then move to the dinning room for dinner. Our server was pleasant, knowledgable and attentive. I actually had a difficult time deciding what to order because knowing the reputation I wanted to try a lot of items. Got a Caesar salad which was fantastic. As simple as a Caesar salad is not many people do it right and this was spot on. Main course I got the chicken parm. Two large chicken filets and a side of pasta. Like with most Italian places the portion sizes are large so expect to take home leftovers! No dessert for us tonight but a great experience. Decor is nice and everything you'd expect from a high end restaurant. They have an amazing deck area which we did not take advantage of but looks first class. When I am craving Italian I know where I'm going now!

    My aunt knows the chef who is neighbors with her so we got to meet him as well as have his amazing food. I had a fabulous dinner here. We split all the meals so we can taste a little bit of everything. This is where I first tried my favorite salad - The Eggplant Salad - which I just tried for a second time at The Rosebud on Taylor Street. The best salad! We had the fish salad which my family and I usually eat on Christmas Eve. This was very good. We of course tried a pasta which was made al dente just the way I like it. Drinks were normal. I really liked having this type of restaurant in a suburb.

    Meh. Went here on Friday night for a business dinner. Waitress recommended the Veal Parmiginia. That was possibly the most bland piece of meat I have ever put in my mouth. No seasoning at all! Just a boring marinara & cheese. What a waste of veal! 2 stars. 1 for the bruschetta and one for the tiramisu & bread pudding. That was the only redemption. Next time it's Magianno's. Pricing is equal, if not better. And I know the food will be better.

    In a sea of franchises and chain restaurants, Chicago Prime Italian truly stand out. Everything from the fresh bread to the delicious calamari, and on to the bone-in ribeye...FAN-FREAKIN-TASTIC! Forget about Maggiano's, Weber, and the plethora of other options in Schaumburg, and head to Chicago Prime...you can thank me later.

Italian Cuisine

The immense popularity of Italian cuisine globally isn't unknown. You can find an Italian Pizzeria around every corner of almost every city in the United States. Not to forget that in every house, people enjoy mac and cheese as comfort food. But it would be wrong to believe that Italian food starts with pizza and ends with good pasta as this Mediterranean country has much more to offer other than these two dishes. In Italian Cuisine, there is a high use of fresh tomatoes, all kinds of herbs, great quality of cheese, all types of meat, seafood and fresh handmade pasta. Many find it hard to believe that Italians have been making noodles long back.

Italian and Greek cuisines are always mistaken to be same, but they are poles apart. The primary difference between the two cuisines is the use of cheese in most of the Italian dishes. Italians love to cultivate their own cheese and process them as per their food requirement. It is believed that some cheese is so expensive that cheese producers secure them in lockers.

If you are bored eating the same old pasta or pizza, you can try some of the authentic Italian dishes like Risotto, Polenta, Ribollita, Lasagna, Fiorentina Steak, Bottarga, Ossobuco, Carbonara, Focaccia, Arancini and Supplì. Another item which Italians love to relish every morning is a good cup of Italian Coffee. Once you taste a freshly brewed cup of Italian Coffee, you might not visit Starbucks ever again. Authentic Italian food is made with heart and soul, so go find a restaurant where you can relish Italian cuisine in your city.
