Meet us where Italian and Chicago-style are intertwined
Victory Italian serves Italian comfort food at its best, with renowned chef Joe Farina cooking up house-made pasta, prime steaks and classic parmesans in Oak Park’s Pleasant District.
Some of the must-try dishes on Victory’s menu include Joe’s mama’s meatballs, house-made with marinara and whipped ricotta., and Nanna’s gravy, pot roast slow-braised crushed tomato sauce with red wine and served over house-made rigatoni topped with fresh ricotta.
The mile high lasagna is as big as it sounds with meat layered with mozzarella and baked to golden brown perfection. Aunt Angie’s stuffed shells are also a favorite, filled with spinach, ricotta and mozzarella then smothered in vodka sauce.
Don't forget to try the 2018 People’s Choice Bacon Fest winner, which is homemade agnolotti stuffed with ricotta, parmesan and, of course, bacon, then topped with a sage butter sauce. Yum!
Opt for a seat indoors or settle into a table on the sprawling patio.
