Love this place...go there frequently. Like it so much, we're having our anniversary dinner there this Fall for about 30 family members. Never have been disappointed with any of their selections. Reasonable prices and, with one exception, excellent service. Waiting time not bad with reservations. Excellent wine choices with reasonable prices.

This medium-sized restaurant is a bit off the beaten track, and easy to miss if you don't know it's there. We heard about it from friends. The menu is mainstream Italian, sort of, with a strong emphasis on meat, with some a few fish dishes.There were no vegetarian entrees. My wife, a vegetarian, had to piece together a soup, salad,...

Nice bar area with friendly bar staff. Food is very ordinary with no real Italian flair. There's better Italian in the Fox Valley.

I had to write a review about Tribella after reading some of the negative comments. We relly like going there. It is not too fancy, but it is much nicer than Fridays or Chilis. I think the food is very good. The service has always been excellent. It is one of those places you can go and just relax and... More

My wife and I decided to go Tribella tonight. I didn't have a reservation so I checked in and was told that it would be 25 minutes to get a table. We were seated 90 minutes later. When our waitress came she apologized for the wait and said "I'll make it up to you" She never offered to comp a... More

I think Tribella is charming and the setting is perfect for a delicious dinner. It used to be open for lunch, but now for dinner. They have an extensive wine list if you need one. Otherwise, don't miss the stuffed raviolis that are out of this world.

My family usually takes me there for my birthday every year because I love their martinis, food and desserts.

Ok, so I waited a long time to go back to Tribella and some friends convinced me to go this past Saturday night. Well, the food was excellent, the service was spectacular, and we all had a really good time. I'm very happy to have gone back there and I'm certain to go again very soon. I'll be glad to... More

Until we moved recently, we would eat there about once a week. It's miles beyond chains like (forgive the mention...) Olive Garden, but more casual than you might want for, say, a quite, intimate anniversary dinner. The food is very good. Pasta covers a good span from hearty Bolognese made with chunks of sausage, to more refined and adventurous such... More
