Located just west of downtown Naperville, Mesón Sabika has been serving the community since 1990. Built in 1847, the pristine four-acre estate and beautiful mansion welcome you before you reach the driveway. Whether you dine in one of the mansion’s eight dining rooms decorated in traditional Spanish décor, attend a wedding or corporate event in the pavilion, or sit out back on the patio, the cuisine of Spain and delicious drinks make for an unparalleled dining experience. For a quiet, romantic dining experience we recommend a week night reservation. The small mansion rooms fill up on the weekends, making for a more lively dining experience. Our dress code is "proper casual/casual dressy." Gentlemen, we respectfully ask that you cover up your arms (no tank tops). And ladies, we ask that the majority of your midriff is covered (no bandeaux’s). We ask that everyone remove their baseball hats when dining inside the mansion. Thank you!

    Went for the St. Patrick’s Day specials and they were delicious! The corned beef was so tender and flavorful as were the veggies and cabbage. Horseradish was brought to us upon asking. The service was outstanding. We never waited for a thing.

    My family including grandparents, children and grandchildren had dinner at Eddie Merlot. Since we were a larger group we had a little room on the side. Josh was our waiter and he was outstanding. Very professional yet friendly and warm. He attended to our every need (he had other tables to attend to) but was not overbearing either. The assistant servers were attentive as well. The food is always delicious - known for their steaks they are tender, juicy, and cooked to perfection. Everyone makes you feel special when you dine. Thank you for a great experience and I highly recommend Josh as your server. He is exceptional.
