Cafe Ba-Ba-Reeba is the best spanish tapas restaurant I've been to in Chicago. Located in the heart of Lincoln Park this spot is great for Groups who are open to share a lot of small plates. Top Dishes: Potatoes Bravas (Spicy Potatoes) Goat Cheese in a Red Sauce Stuffed Mushrooms with Aioli They just redid the extended seating and added a retractable roof for the summer - great addition!

If you want to go out to eat with a large group of girlfriends, be moderately loud, drink copious amounts of sangria and eat delicious tapas, go here. I've never gone with fewer than four people as it's always the more the merrier with tapas. I recommend the patatas bravas. Yum.

Like Peter R, I should have written this review long ago. I haven't been to Chicago in two years and marking my return in a few months I decided I really need to update all my Chi-town reviews!

I love the ambiance inside...

A handful of tasty dishes, a lot of solid ones, and a few mediocre tapas. Good sangria and good atmosphere, so I keep visiting this place whenever I go back home to Chicago.

Not Like It Used To Be Going back 10 years, I would never have put paella down as my favorite here. There were always so many intriguing tapas selections that ordering paella was never a thought. Over the last 2 years, I perceive a watering down of creativity of the tapas and some decline in quality. Even the olives aren't as tasty as before. The croquettes are the same and the octopus remains tasty, but the...

Good tapas...nice atmosphere I have been craving tapas for many years since I studied abroad in Spain. I never knew where to go until I did a search on Urbanspoon. I got there right when it opened for dinner and sat at the bar. Everyone was friendly (the greeter, server, etc.). I ordered the same tapa that I ate all the time in Spain--tortilla española (warm potato and onion omelette)--and it was fantastic. Nice presentation, reasonably priced, and it tasted great! Everything from the atmosphere to the bread and olive oil to... read more
