Dining with Ms X - Nonna Silvia's Trattoria & Pizzeria
1400 Canfield Rd. PARK RIDGE, IL 847-292-9970. I've had a few people recommend this place to me, and I'm so glad they did. This is an outstanding Italian restaurant. The atmosphere is lovely and the food is amazing. On the menu they have pizza, homemade pasta dishes, chicken and veal entrées along with fresh salads and sandwiches. I dined outside on the patio. For starters, I had the Aranchi rice balls and an order of house made meatballs. For my entrée I had the Heritage Pork Chops with Vesuvio potatoes.
