Gibsons steak house across the street, Giordano's for great pizza, Carlucci's, the RAM for a bar and grill. Here's a pretty comprehensive list of all dining options in the area

I think Angelo's is a great idea.

 

A little pasta with some meatballs, some bread.

 

Cannoli's for dessert.

 

What time?

Whenever I go to Chicago, I make it a point to go to the Rosebud on Taylor. Great Italian food.

Also, the CGC Forum Dinner on Saturday night is at Gibson's. It's lots of fun and as mentioned in other threads, a great opportunity to meet other boardies, check out some sweet key books and purchases, and eat a steak and a potato as big as your head. (thumbs u

If you like Hooters type outfits on gorgeous waitresses - Shoeless Joe's Sports Bar: Higgins and Mannheim. 5 or 10 minute drive from the show.

 

Haven't been there in years, but used to be a favorite of mine.
