• 6/11/23Their Market Vegetable Paella and Paella De Mariscos are absolutely delicious. Cafe Babareeba has the best Paella in Chicago, hands down! The portions are large and worth every penny. The Patatas Bravas are my favorite. The Brussels sprouts salad, goat cheese marinara and deviled eggs are also great. There is something on the menu for everyone. Wish they had a location further north because I'd love to dine in more often! If I could afford to order one of everything on the menu, I would. I have tried it all and in over 20 years, I have never had a bad meal here. Consistently exceeds expectations! Go with the passion fruit sangria!! It is my absolute favorite. Their seasonal sangrias are also wonderful and refreshing on a hot summer day :)

• 6 days agoMost of the things I ordered were bland, Paella Mixta was so flavorless and the 29. Tortilla Española was terrible, way overcooked and under seasoned it tastes just like boiled eggs with scrambled eggs that they didn't even salted. The food is miles away from being even remotely similar to real Spanish food.

• 9/26/25Their containers are numbered and the bag is numbered also like 1 / 1, and they still don't know how to count and have missing items. The food is delicious, but this is unacceptable for the price. To the restaurant: please check each item off on the receipt and you won't have this problem.

• 11/16/25Unfortunately was not good today. The 30. Patatas Bravas were well overcooked and the 50. Beef Tenderloin & Blue Cheese was way undercooked, still blue inside.
