Rosebud Cafe in Little Italy

Story

The Rosebud on Taylor Street is the restaurant where the Rosebud tradition of serving generous portions of authentic Italian recipes first began over 40 years ago. With dishes like chicken vesuvio, sausage and peppers, the best plate of spaghetti and some of the best meatballs ever rolled, The Rosebud continues to be a family favorite among Chicagoans and tourists alike.
