This authentic Italian Wrigleyville cafe will more than double in size when it opens its new digs across the street in early February 2012. The new 2,000-square-foot space includes wood floors, brick walls, elevated tin ceilings, an open kitchen and a 12-foot table for large parties. You won't find TVs--owner/chef Stefano Roman's wife, Juliana Montebello-Roman, feels they distract from the dining experience. However, Roman has expanded the menu to include more soups, appetizers and sides, along with additional fried and charbroiled items. Nightly specials include items like salmon and lamb. Roman's pasta dishes, filet mignon, thin crust  Venetian-style pizza and other faves will also be on hand, along with a full bar--but the formerly BYOB eatery will still allow patrons to bring their own vino if they'd like.

Pizza Rustica is located at 3908 N. Sheridan Rd. in Chicago's Lake View Neighborhood
