This was one of the best and authentic Tapas restaurants I have been to. We had beef, chicken, salmon, goat cheese, olives dishes. They were all very good and well prepared and presented. Sangria was good. Didn’t try the paella but it looked awesome. Very reasonably priced. It’s worth traveling to if in Chicago. I was impressed with the service level. Outdoor seating. Warning… Not a place if you don’t like noise or a hectic pace on the part of the servers.
This place has really good food and it’s very reasonable for tapas. I love going there for family dinner or just date night. The patatas bravas and pisto manchego are my two favorites. I highly recommend getting the poached pear dessert as well. It is so good. They also have a good collection of paellas. Just remember to order it right when you start you meal as it takes a while to be ready.
Delicious food, great drinks. My go-to dishes: grilled salmon with asparagus, the grilled lamb chops, garlic shrimp casserole. If you are a bigger group: Baked goat cheese in tomato sauce, grilled chicken are good too! The sangria is YUM! And if you are chocolate person you will LOVE this:frozen chocolate mousse withraspberry sauce! I go here often, and plan tocontinue that 🙂
Yummy! Not recommended for kids. A very adult atmosphere. A little pricey but worth it.
!Delicioso!. Ate two dinners here on a recent trip to Chicago area. Seating didn’t take too long, we did have a reservation the first time. This is a nice place to sit and linger with drinks, tapas and good conversation.. My friend and I both felt that the dining here was elevated to a step up than either of us usually eat…presentation and freshness, was top notch and made for a really fun new experience. Everything we ordered was beautifully presented, we tried a lot of different tapas to share. From the cold tapas menu: the garlic potato salad was well liked by all. The avocado with crab salad was generous, fresh and delicious. For me, the hot tapas we tried were the most special. A must have is the bacon wrapped dates, these were melt in your mouth, rich beyond belief. My personal favorite, very rich and unctuous: Baked stuffed eggplant with goat cheese, hazelnuts, pepper sauce. I ordered that when I went back the 2nd time, just had to have it. The fried calamari and shrimp with spicy sauce was top notch for the calamari, ok for the shrimp, but you get more calamari, so go for it. That’s an easy one to share, too. Harder to share but very good for a mini dinner is the Linguine with assorted seafood, tomato saffron broth….wow! This is a delicious clean seafood broth with a generous portion of mussels, scallops shrimp and fish. My friend ordered it both times. Just that would make a perfect bowl of lunch for a very reasonable 7.95. On 2nd visit, I ordered the paella with chicken, sausage and seafood. (They make the sausage themselves.) The paella was good, but I honestly was hoping for a bit more flavor, so not sure that I would order it again. I felt the seafood and the chicken were both slightly overcooked in the dish, so that was a disappointment, and other shrimp that I’d had on different tapas were also just slightly too cooked both visits, so not sure I would go for anything with shrimp again. ( All other seafood was perfect.) Hope to visit again soon to try more tapas! Get that eggplant dish, even if you aren’t a huge goat cheese or eggplant fan, you will not be sorry if you like rich, creamy goodness! The sangria was tasty, too, and my friend said their coffee was good.
This is the place where we go when the evening is perfect for dining outdoors. The patio is far off the sidewalk, providing quiet and privacy from the street. Food and drinks are good. A little pricey, but that’s par for small plates.
Great food. The food was amazing, and the service was great. Will go back.
