OUR LOCATION

Find JOY

Bridging Italian traditions with contemporary refinements, Gioia is located in the heart of Chicago’s famed West Loop neighborhood. A former industrial zone, the hip neighborhood of West Loop has become one of Chicago’s busiest with a reputation for being a dining and nightlife hotspot. The vibrant strip of Randolph Street, where Gioia is located, is known fondly as Restaurant Row, and is a unique, desirable, and downright cool spot to find some of Chicago’s best eateries.

... with STYLE

Designed by New York’s D’Apostrophe Design, the refined decor showcases natural materials, like solid oak and marble to complement the authentic ingredients on the menu and transport you to Italy by way of Chicago.
