Cafe Ba-Ba-Reeba!

®

Tapas and Paella

As Chicago's first Spanish restaurant, it often surprises first-time visitors by how likeable, varied, and fresh great Spanish food can be. Tapas–small dishes perfect to enjoy leisurely over conversation–let you sample several dishes in a relaxing, Mediterranean-sensible meal and Sherries or authentic fresh-fruits sangrias.

In cozy surroundings with the colors and sights of Spanish tapas bars, you'll be tempted by a menu of surprisingly familiar flavors in more than 75 dishes served simply but in often novel ways – in cast-iron pots, paella pans, hot slabs of granite and hanging from grill skewers.

Chef-owner Gabino Sotelino, whose talents have led to command performances for King Juan Carlos, created Cafe Ba-Ba-Reeba to reflect his love of la cocina de España. One taste and you'll be in love, too.
