New Arca it's delicious and very reasonable price and great quality food and great service

The 202 Bistro is now Arca. The food is as exquisite as ever. The new restaurant is one of the most gorgeous places in the area. As any new restaurant, there are SMALL issues with timing but the food is phenomenal! Everyone is always looking forward to making you happy. Arca is a jewel in this area not to be missed!! Service is spot on and especially responsive.

Time to update my review from 7 years ago. The restaurant is still one of our favorites. Its actually becoming very popular and busy. So much so they are moving a few buildings down to a much larger and remodeled location. We are definitely looking foward to it. Unfortunately, they did change suppliers for the ravioli. They are still very good but not as good as the previous. My new favorite is the Zuppa Di Pesce. The picture is worth a thousand words.

Best mussels marinara around. Calamari is always fresh and tender, and marinara sauce is perfect compliment. The red sauce on the chicken parm is spot on too. All in all, great Italian-inspired place in the area.

We are lucky enough to have 202 Bistro so close to us. The regular menu and special menu never disappoint - the food quality is amazing, they are very attentive and the atmosphere is comfortable but classy.

Excellent food, and service is outstanding. Managers and wait staff really care about the customers dining experience.

Delightful Italian food at the Bistro in Lincoln Park, they've re decorated since I last visited pastas were delicious ordered the linguine with scallops, Bolognese, along with the rigatoni with vodka. Really appreciate that most of the pasta dishes come with a protein like chicken, meat or fish. To start we ordered the Manhattan clam chowder which was nice, the calamari tasted like an Asian twist which was sweet and tangy, not my favorite. Overall great expierence

good food in our neighborhood. We are happy we have a place like this. To be honest though not sure if I'll frequent here. The food was pretty good but not very flavorful. For the price point I don't think it's worth it. The cocktails and desserts were awesome but we were disappointed with our entrees. Service was great. Everyone very attentive and nice!

This review is a longtime coming so here it goes We visited Bistro 202 in September 2021 for the first time and were wowed by the atmosphere, service, & food. Since then we've visited at least once a month and each time we love it more & more. The drinks & food are absolutely amazing. The staff consists of a group of lovely gentlemen that make the place warm & inviting. Tonight we could think of no better place for our anniversary dinner and we were right! I have included pictures of our wonderful meal tonight...Bistro Calamari (crispy & tender) Linguini with Shrimp & Lobster in a Crab sauce (SO Good) & Chilean Sea-bass over a delicious salty/sweet cranberry quinoa (perfect combination). I also added a couple of photos from a previous dinner including our FAVORITE...their Gnocchi which my husband renamed "Pillows of Love" It doesn't matter what these "melt in your mouth" little pillows are prepared with...they are WONDERFUL. This place deserves a review. As foodies hubby & agree that this is #1 on our list BUT don't take our word for it...try it for yourself. FYI make reservations on the weekends

Nice little cozy meal, decor was welcoming, nicely spaced out seating, huge delicious martinis, yummy apps and solid entrees. Entrees priced 22-25 range specials (tuna) 36 We had a nice time, would go back
