Pesto Italian Bistro was founded with one simple vision: to bring the warmth of traditional Italian dining to the heart of Park Ridge. Guided by passion and experience, our chef has spent nearly two decades perfecting the art of fresh, house-made cuisine. 

We take pride in sourcing fresh, seasonal ingredients and preparing dishes with the same attention you’d find in a family kitchen. Favorites like Penne Alla Vodka, Rigatoni Pesto, and Chicken Milanese have become staples for our guests, while seafood dishes and rotating specials keep the menu exciting.

As a BYOB restaurant, we invite you to bring along your favorite bottle to complement your meal. This approach reflects our philosophy: dining should be relaxed, enjoyable, and shared with the people you love.

At Pesto, we’re not just serving dinner—we’re creating an experience that feels like home.
