Inizio is a cozy, pasta-focused restaurant in beautiful Elmwood Village. Freshness comes first here—we make everything we can from scratch in our kitchen, and we haven’t begun cooking your pasta until the moment you order it. Our motto, “tutto fatto a mano” translates to mean “everything made by hand,” and we believe that the personal connection to the preparation process can be tasted on the plate.

Enjoy great food, a lively atmosphere, cocktails, and entertainment! We have a spacious bar and indoor restaurant, and a covered patio for those sunny warm days. Live music year round every Wed., Fri & Sat. and some other days too. We can host banquets, golf tournaments, happy hours, showers, and so much more!
