Cafe BabaReeba is know for it's tapas. tapas are the Spanish equivalent of appetizers. Don't confuse tapas with Mexican food, because they are not, it is true Spanish traditional food. There is a little something for everyone from fish, chicken, seafood, steak, and vegetable tapas, and even hot and cold tapas. The price is a shock, it is very reasonable, especially for the trendy area of Chicago it is located in. A couple of two can easily eat for $15 to $25 depending on what you order. But don't go there just for the food. You have to have a pitcher of their homemade sangria ($17).
If You Go:
Expect to wait. Not only is the food excellent, it is a very happening social scene. Belly up to the bar or more likely try and find a corner and get the bartender's attention and ask for a pitcher of Sangria while you wait to be seated.You can get off at the Brown Line train stops not to far from there so it is pretty much accessible for visitors who don't have cars. If you do drive either be prepared to shell out valet money ($8 to $10) range or walk a Kentucky mile. The busiest hours seem to be from about 7:00 to 9:00. Arriving around 10:00 pm usually gets you in at the end of the busy time.
Overall:
For the money it is some of the best priced and best tasting. Because of the parking, I wouldn't give it a 10.
