Look no further than Chicago’s backdoor to find tapas that will tantalize your taste buds.
Found in the newly-renovated Blackstone Hotel, Mercat a La Planxa brings Catalan cuisine to Chicago. Critically-acclaimed chef Jose Garce brings simplicity and perfection to his tapas-filled menu. Views of Grant Park and Lake Michigan serve as a perfect side to the Catalan spiced sirloin and savory salmon tapas at this extraordinary restaurant.
Highly-acclaimed Café Baba Reeba, Quartinos, and Café Iberico are must hit tapas hot spots. Serving traditional Spanish infused tapas, all are extremely popular with the local, Sangria-loving crowd. If you are in the mood for something less traditional, try Sura with its Thai tapas or Tizi Melloul’s Mediterranean-focused menu.
