Pitcher of white sangria, 2 cold tapas (stuffed avocado & marinated veggies), 2 hot tapas (bacon wrapped dates & goat cheese), and Mariscos seafood Paella. Delicious, Filling, and ONLY $50 bucks!!!

The best restaurant on Halsted. Try the dates, the Nido de Cordero, the crepe, and well,just about anything. I always have a good time here! Oh,and the cucumber melon martini is the best in Boystown!!

Favorite dishes? Galleta de Langosta and the Pechuga de Pato. ALSO. The Patatas Bravas isn't on the menu but you MUST get it. It's what the cheesy fiesta potatoes at Taco Bell WISHED they were.

Try the "Rated X" cocktail. It's the perfect refresher for a muggy evening and there's a popular patio area out back.

Patatas bravas, and the galleta de langosta are amazing. Also had the mar y mar, delicious sauce and tiger shrimp but the mussels were underwhelming.

Make a reservation! This place packs up almost every night. The patio is open now, and if its nice out- it's a must see! Sangria in the sun.!or even sipping that cucumber melon martini. Delish!!

Awesome food. Everything we ate was scrumptious. Our service from Teri was outstanding, and Andy, the owner, is fantastic!

Great food... Try the Calamari, it's really good! Not the best service but the food makes it worth the visit!

All of the tapas are outstanding-- but the dessert is especially good. They're known for their blueberry mousse and there's a reason why.

Wednesday nights are $5 martinis! They are delicious, and not busy, you can just walk right in.

If you're not having the Montaditos de Cerdo, you're missing out.

The artichokes and stuffed mushrooms are beyond delicious.

Terrible, slow service for large parties. They forgot several of our dishes, and the ones we did get took forever to come out.

Stay away. Service is horrible. The waiter U's prissy and arrogant. We were sitting there for half an hour being ignored and finally the holier than thou waiter told us to leave.
