Casati’s Modern Italian is owned by husband and wife Melanie & Stefano Casati and is located in the heart of Lincoln Park. Stefano was born in Florence, Italy and Melanie is a native New Yorker. However, the two moved to Chicago a couple years ago, let’s call it “crazy, stupid, love” but that is where the culinary journey began…
Stefano & Melanie’s love for “setting the table” with fresh food and various wines to have friends and family over is what inspired them to create Casati’s Modern Italian. Stefano’s passion for eating like he did in Florence is the inspiration for the menu sourcing locally or importing directly from Italy to create a menu that is light, fresh, and healthy! Just like the Italian’s do it!
