- Linda FelterApril 16, 2014Great Date Spot for Bacon Wrapped Dates on any Date of the year. (See what I did there?) Oh, and have some Sangria while you're at it. Makes the bad jokes a little more fun.Upvoted Feb 18
- Jennifer JuniMarch 26, 2015This place is amazing! The paella is wonderful. Everything we tried was so delicious. You can't go wrong! You can ask the servers to make suggestions on how many tapas to share based on your group.Upvoted 1 week ago
- BiancaAugust 19, 2019Great place, very lively. Loved their sparkling sangria and the rosé cava. Mix it with some pinxos and few more bites: octopus a la plancha or goat cheese with tomato sauce.
- Alanna MApril 17, 2014The shrimp with garlic is amazing. The buttery sauce has just perfect amount of kick from the chopped garlic and pepper flakes, and it's the gift that keeps on giving-dip your bread in till it's gone
- Michelle WilesOctober 27, 2021Everything is excellent. But the croquetas, mushroom cheese things, tomato bread, goat cheese, brussel salad are all top
- Marjorie MullerSeptember 22, 2015The food is exquisite. Mallows you to try a multitude of things and in the end, it's usually cheaper than if you went out and bought your own meal. I love this place for brunch!
- This is definitely one of the best restaurants in Chicago, especially for tapas. Try the roast dates wrapped in bacon and the spicy potatoes w/ tomato alioli, so delicious! The sangria's great too! =)
- jonasMay 9, 2013Obviously, Dates wrapped in bacon is a must. Goat cheese and sauce - another one to order before you even look at the menu. Try the new Blood Orange Sangria that should go nicely with summer!
- Jacqui StilsonMay 18, 2018Everything here is great! Great selection and good flavors, eye pleasing presentation. Best white peach sangria hands down! This is a family favorite and we will always come back.
- MargaretJanuary 6, 2015This resturant was wonderful! Not only was the food epic ( potatoes with tomato aioli and BACON wrapped dates) but the wait staff and manager were GREAT! Great service all around!
- Trevor ConnollySeptember 3, 2013Everyone is going to recommend the bacon-wrapped dates or the spinach-artichoke mushrooms, but I say make sure to get the Blue Cheese Beef and save room for the Butterscotch after. WHOA!
- Social News NetworkAugust 6, 2013A great selection of tapas with a nicely organized menu. The endive salad, short rib and empanadas are especially worth ordering. The service is very helpful and accommodating.
- Great service, never disappointed.. Always packed so if you don't mind waiting atleast an hour during busy hours. Glass of sangria! Figure out what you want before server arrives to make it go faster!
- Get a pitcher of sangria-- it comes out to more than 6 drinks, by far the best value. Also, I'd argue that the plain red sangria is the better than the (more expensive) flavored ones.
- lauren wellsSeptember 21, 2014One of the best dining experiences of my life! Tons of different sangria flavors, amazing tapas, and great atmosphere. Start with a chorizo wrapped date.
- Claire MirandaJuly 12, 2013Loved the bacon-wrapped dates. The Paella Valenciana was very well done and that peach sangria is just dazzling. Do not leave without trying it! One can never have too much sangria.
- Elizabeth BursteinMay 17, 2018Loved mango sangria, spinach crepe, rib, and the citrus pancakes. Great brunch spot!
- Manoj AmbalavananMay 11, 2022The papas bravas and octopus are fantastic as are their desert. Pair it with a pitcher of sangria and bring a big group for a great time
- Ericka YeomanFebruary 10, 2019Food was amazing. Very rarely do I get to experience a well rounded gluten free menu. Drinks were just as good. We will be back!!!!
- Allison DavisSeptember 9, 2016Absolutely love this place! Amazing food & drinks, everything was delicious. So fun & perfect for a girls night out. Plus, incredible value!
- Chicago magazineApril 13, 2012Paella comes three ways (we liked the Valenciana, with chicken, pork, green beans, and artichokes) and is available in individual portions. Read more
- Kyle HarmonFebruary 3, 2016Lamb was good , had a bowl of rice can't quite remember the name of it . Wine was exceptional quality place to take a date ,or night out with the fellas .
- StefanieOctober 5, 2014The sangria is perfection. Lots of tapas from which to choose. I liked the spicy potatoes, the goat cheese, and the shrimp with garlic.
- Linda AlexanderMay 1, 2014Always an interesting meal. Be careful with the fried peppers as the red one will get you. Get the Pintxos Platter to try an assortment. Very good.
- Emily PrendergastSeptember 8, 2015So many great tapas! If you are there for lunch/brunch you can still ask to see a dinner menu and they'll make you anything from it
- Ronald VieiraFebruary 22, 2015Delicious tapas. The paella was very Americanized, but still with good flavor. Definitely a should-try!
- Jenn WayboerJuly 24, 2015Amazing black raspberry sangria! And the tapas are perfect to split so you can try several. I think we split like 6 of them.
- Spinach & manchego stuffed mushrooms. Yum. Blue cheese tenderloin & seared scallops. Double yum. But the butterscotch dessert? MUST HAVE. Fun atmosphere & delicious food!
- ChristyOctober 27, 2012Classic red sangria all the way. Don't get bacon wrapped dates - it's just bacon & there are much better things. A+ to goat cheese croqueta and spicy potatoes (although they're not spicy, at all)
- Sophia RamdassDecember 28, 2014Super impressed with everything we ate. Loved the calamari and beef empanada. The flan was amazing for dessert. Can't wait to go back!
- JamieFebruary 9, 2018The homemade sangria pitchers are always a must! Their menu is always exciting and fun! And always delicious
- Andriana AlbamonteJuly 22, 2013Pinxtos platter was amazing and perfectly portioned and priced! White peach sangria is a must try!

- SatishMay 7, 2014Amazing Tapas! Killer Sangrias. So far the best I have come across in Chicago. Lively ambience, great place for groups, .
- Max MossAugust 23, 2015Expensive! But really good. You'll want to try everything. And just when you think you're done, the desserts are awesome too.
- Ashley TerrellSeptember 19, 2012Mm tapas! If you’re looking to visit Cafe Ba-Ba-Reeba and also want to meet interesting new people, they’ve partnered with Grubwithus.com to host a social dinner on the first Thursday of every month.
- Great place for Brunch if you have kids. Their menu is amazing and the Classic Sangria is off the hook.

- L KDecember 14, 2014The olives are a great started. Also recommend the goat cheese in tomato sauce and the octopus.
- Jennifer StraubDecember 22, 2011If you go for brunch, you cannot pass up the Make-Your-Own-Bloody-Mary bar. If you're there for dinner, the bacon-wrapped dates are awesome.
- Tres Chic Craft BoutiqueApril 6, 2014Queso de Cabra was the best I've had. Share the Brussels Sprout Salad and get the Granny Smith Empanadas for dessert!
- Thurgood CoatsMay 30, 2016Tapas, tapas, and more tapas! Literally everything was amazing and the Sangria was to die for.
- Jon B.July 17, 2018Was a bit disappointed with the on-and-off dishes. Really liked the goat cheese bake and iberrico pork. The cucumber side to the lamb, on the other hand, was super salty.
- NancySeptember 8, 2013Caramelized bananas for dessert were to die for! Perfect size! And the bacon wrapped shrimp was amazing!
