Food was delicious. Had the hummus with soft boiled egg, charred cauliflower with cornichons, burrata cannelloni, and a meet and cheese board. The Rioja was delicious as well! The wait was quite long and there was no where to stand out of the way, it was raining. But totally worth it. Definitely will go back if I ever find myself in Chicago again.

Great food - Mediterranean style "tapas" is the best way to describe it. Great wine - mostly European wines to compliment the menu. Excellent service - they really understand the menu and the best wine pairings. We loved this place!

As much as I wanted to love this place, I was not 100% convinced. We ordered the whipped Burratta, the Eggplant, the Bone Marrow, the Fried Pig Ears with Kale and the Lamb ribs. I felt that every plate had a flavor that overpowered the dish, which was an underwelming/disappointed experience for my palate. I prefer flavors that compliment eachother or that are more layered and come out with each bite. The bone marrow was the most disappointing one for me, as I felt it was too much bread for the amount of marrow, so you could ... read more
