Family dinner at Gatto's Italian Restaurant & Bar was a hit. Kids loved the pizza, adults loved the house Chianti. Prices are fair for the quality. Will be our new Italian spot in New Lenox.

Decent Italian food at Gatto's Italian Restaurant & Bar. The penne arrabbiata had a nice kick and the cannoli was fresh. A bit noisy on weekends but the food makes up for it.

Stumbled upon Gatto's Italian Restaurant & Bar and so glad we did. The owners are from Naples and it shows in every dish. Authentic ingredients, reasonable prices for New Lenox.

Gatto's Italian Restaurant & Bar has the most authentic pasta I have had outside of Italy. The carbonara is made tableside and the portions are generous. Great wine list too. New Lenox is lucky to have this place.

Ordered the lasagna and tiramisu at Gatto's Italian Restaurant & Bar and both were outstanding. The sauce is housemade and you can taste the difference. Cozy atmosphere, great for date night.

I have been to a lot of Italian places in New Lenox and Gatto's Italian Restaurant & Bar is at the top. Fresh ingredients, perfect al dente pasta, and the bread service is complimentary. Highly recommend.

The wood-fired pizza at Gatto's Italian Restaurant & Bar is worth the drive. Thin crust, quality toppings, and the bruschetta appetizer is a must-order. Service was attentive and friendly.
