Mane Event/Taste of Arlington Heights Spotlight: Clementi’s on Northwest Highway

The Italian restaurant features authentic, old-world recipes and a number of entertainment options on the weekends.

Clementi’s, 602 W. Northwest Highway, recently was featured by Chicago’s Best for their Italian beef sandwich, but that’s not the only delectable option on the menu.

Linguini all Calamari, chicken and veal parmesan, Shrimp Diablo and Chicken Vesuvio Limone are just a small sampling of the many authentic Italian dishes served. 

Mike Clementi, who co-owns the business with his father, also named Mike, says menu selections are traditional Italian, and based on family recipes that go back generations.
