About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
Located in Chicago’s South loop, we offer creative Spanish tapas, unique cocktails, and a lively atmosphere with walls adorned in multi-colored mosaic artwork reminiscent of the art of the great Spanish artists Joan Miro and Antoni Gaudí! Whether you’re dining with friends and family, exploring on a first date, or planning your next big event, Tapas Valencia is the perfect backdrop for any occasion. We carry on the tradition of great food and service that was started at our original location, Mesón Sabika in Naperville.

    From the minute we walked in the door for Sunday brunch, we knew this place was special. Jordan, the manager, greeted us and took my keys to valet my car (complimentary). The food was outstanding. We had the grilled calamari, goat cheese with tomato basil sauce, poached eggs with chorizo and potatoes, and meatballs. Not a ton of brunch choices, but what we did have was delicious. The music was delightful and the design of the place is artistic (mosaic mural) and inspired. Lots of Art without the cheesy pictures of landscapes. We will be back!

    The food was awesome! The service was perfect. Always enjoy the tapas experience. Food comes out when it’s ready and everyone digs in. We had 6 items and we couldn’t decide which one we liked best. They were all perfect. Really enjoyed this place.

    The service and food were amazing. We picked the location because it was walking distance to Solider Field but we’ll definitely be back.

    Service was kind and attentive from the moment we entered. As always, the food was beautifully plated but even more so delicious and cooked/prepared perfectly. The smoked valencia old fashioned will be haunting my dreams until my next visit.
