    Great food but it's hot as hell inside, especially if you sit up by the kitchen.

    Place ia too loud; the tapas are either amazing or blah, their sangria quality's slipping, but still decent

    Go for dinner and then to Second City (just around the corner) afterward for some entertainment. Aim for the later SC showing for the extra improv session.

    Gambas al ajillo. Best. Tapa. Evah. Good caipirinas and nowhere does sangria in a 40-gallon trash can better.

    Delicious sangria. Avoid on weekend nights - too noisy. Lots of fun with a big group.

    Delicious tapas. Cheap as hell. Scrumptious sangria. But horrible crowds. Best bet? Go for a nice late lunch on Saturday. After 5:00, you're in trouble.

    Food is reasonable. The chicken croquettes are great. Really loud in there. So be prepared to scream over the table.
