Boka Restaurant Group's family-style Italian on West Loop's Restaurant Row — chef Lee Wolen (also of Michelin-starred Boka) runs approachable handmade pastas and wood-fired plates built for sharing. Warmer and more casual than a special-occasion room — the group's crowd-pleasing neighborhood Italian. Come for pasta meant to be passed around the table.
