   Still one of my favorite restaurants. The octopus is one of the best that I had, as well as the oarmegiano claims. The capelini was the least interesting one, but still good. Can't wait to come back!

   Amazing flavors and creative dishes! Just wish portions were a bit larger, despite being restaurant week menu.

   While I really enjoyed the quality of the food, I felt a little short changed on the experience. We had reservations and were in and out within an hour. I get that the space is small so they want to move tables quickly but the overall experience felt more like a fast casual restaurant at fine dining prices. I have been to many nice restaurants that have a limit on table time but I never felt rushed to get out like I did here. Its a good spot if you have limited time and want good quality food - its just not a place you want to go to if you're trying to catch up with a friend or just have a nice night out.

   Food was tasty and had nice texture. This was my second time here. I came here for the restaurant week and the dishes were much tastier than when I had come for dinner. The portioning and sampling across the menu was perfect. I had a much better experience as part of the restaurant week experience than the “regular” dinner experience as the food was tastier and I felt the prices were more reasonable. All I had remembered from my previous experience that the food was mediocre and overpriced, not worth a second try. However, this most recent experience was a definite step up and made me want to come again for a sampling menu experience or a future restaurant week.

    My fiance and I have been wanting to try this place out for a bit now and we finally took advantage for Chicago Restaurant Week and it did not disappoint. Our favorite options were the Acevichado and the Arroz con Mariscos. But everything was delicious
