What is a great affordable italian restaurant in Chicago near Ogilvie station?

I am a runner and am looking to carb up for a long run on Saturday. My friend and I are going to go into the city to do just that! So I need a good, a reasonably affordable italian restaurant. I found reviews for La Scarola, Bella Notta, and Viaggio but I can't decide! Can someone help please?!?! I love my pasta so I'm looking for something yummmy!What is a great affordable italian restaurant in Chicago near Ogilvie station?

The best pasta I have ever had was from Volare in Chicago... about 5/6 blocks from Holiday Inn and like 10 from Navy Pier. Anything and everything is good there and the owner is from Italy, which is where he recruits most of his employees. They make everything themselves and the food isn't terribly expensive, $14-20 but it's like an entire days worth of food. Be sure to either make reservations or get there before the rush because they're always packed.

I'm from Michigan and we go to Chicago just for this restaurant and then leave. Sorry I can't be more help with directions, but it's not that hard to find.What is a great affordable italian restaurant in Chicago near Ogilvie station?
It is a bit of a walk but I love The Italian Village.

Go to the restaurant on the second floor. But any would be great.

The restaurant is at 71 West Monroe
