Loved our dinner here. We only had to wait 10 minutes to get a table on the lovely little patio. Servers were great, and brought out our food and drinks very quickly. We had 4 tapas and they were delicious. My only complaint was the Patatas Bravas were not the crispy kind, which is just my own taste. The portions are pretty typical tapas sizes, but I think about the best price-quantity ratio you're going to get in the Chicago area. Our 4 little plates were sufficient for two of us to feel moderately full (though I could have eaten 6 more).
Amazing service and super tasty food! Truly recommend this place if you are looking to taste real Spanish cuisine. In this restaurant, the best way is to order lots of small bites and share them so you can try different flavors. The sangria was delicious! Thank you for such a good time.
The restaurant is huge and a lot of people overflowing during evening. The food is good quality. I liked their pasta and chicken and also tilapia fish. The mashed potatoes are tasty too!
