Debatable if it's worth $140, but honestly the best Italian food in Chicago and garlic bread is the best I've ever had by far.
(Edit to add - RPM Italia for anyone visiting in the future)

Things have got really silly in the US.
ETA.
Doesn't look all that much different to what American Airlines came up with in your last posts.

Looks like a ‘take-away’ possibly from a decent restaurant, so shouldn’t be too surprised by the price; if it that was served as eat in, you’d have something to complain about. (Edit to add - RPM Italia for anyone visiting in the future)

Even so, $35 per dish for pasta, meats ball and garlic bread is not exactly cheap.

I'm not a fan of the containers, but that's neither here nor there I guess, the food itself looks good. There's an Italian place we frequent in Spain near our apartment there and sometimes when we can't be bothered eating out we just get takeaway from it, the food is phenomenal but they serve it in these cheap silver containers like you get from a Chinese - doesn't look great but never complain about the taste.

How did you get that to $140? The eat in menu suggests $90 max plus tip. Surely it should be cheaper take away and no tip? (Edit to add - RPM Italia for anyone visiting in the future)

You have to tip for takeaway in the UScraigjm said:

OK so I slightly exaggerated - total cost was $139.60 delivered (and a slice of tiramisu not shown in pic). Restaurant base costs and their taxes were $115 for the food. Tips, additional taxes, delivery came to an additional $34. (And we don't have a car here currently so picking up food isn't an option).
Anyone who's visited the states knows what is shown on a menu is not what you are going to be paying at the end. Beers at a bar yesterday lunch had a "employee health fund" added as a line item (plus sales tax, plus alcohol tax, plus service).
