The food was excellent & beautifully plated! We started off with 3 plates of tapas (pulpo, mushroom croquettes, salad) which came out fairly quickly. To note: the salad is just lettuce & creamy garlic dressing. Not a piece of manchego cheese, boiled egg or tomato in sight! No fault of the restaurant, as the description literally details the ingredients (lettuce &’dressing) so not sure why I was surprised. It was tasty though.
The second & third round of drinks (beers) were slow to come out & the steak & egg dish took “forever”. As did the churros for dessert. It helped tremendously that the food was delicious otherwise the wait when the restaurant didn’t seem especially busy, would have been more annoying. Upon inquiry, the waiter explained the kitchen was slammed. Maybe they had a lot of delivery orders. 🤷🏽♀️
Going back to try the paella as I’ve heard it’s delicious!

Went there for lunch with a group of friends we had 2 pitchers of red sangria and ordered 3-4 appetizers, we had dátiles con bacon, patatas bravas, escalivada and gambas al ajillo! Everything was pretty good, the dátiles con bacon was my favorite.
We also had 1 paella de mariscos and 1 Fideua con gambas! It was really good but the portions were very small so we just ordered and extra paella!
For dessert we had churros and a carajillo and we highly recommend it! It was soo good!
Here is a photo of the escalivada, the only photo we took lol!

Such a great tapas restaurant! You feel like you’re in Barcelona! They recommend 2-3 tapas per person but we got 7 total for a group of 4 and were stuffed for lunch.
Everything we got was delicious, but my favorites were:
- eggplants on labne with fresh herbs
- Albondigas
- Octopus
- Tortilla (I admit I am usually not a big fan of this dish because it’s kind of basic but they did a fantastic job with it! Fluffy and flavorful)

This restaurant has my heart. They have a great happy hour and people do not take advantage of it enough! Recommend everything but especially their paella, seafood dishes, and jamón serano!
It is worth the visit! It is a Tapas restaurant, one of the best in Chicago! The food was delicious but not exceotional. The service made the experience memorable. What i absolutely loved were the spicy margaritas which were absolutely delicious, despite the interesting twist The restaurant was busy certainly, a great sign that something special is happening. I recommend the restaurant, one i plan to visit again!
We came here for an anniversary and we’re treated incredibly well. The chefs experience is phenomenal. A well assembled series of tapas that balanced so many flavors. Boqueria is a top choice in Fulton market and one you won’t regret. We recommend their sangria as well!
Excellent Tapas and breakfast sandwiches. Amazing desserts and drinks. Did feel bad for our servers who seemed to attend to the outside and inside of the restaurant, might have been a understaffed for a busy day. But they did an amazing job and gave us drink coupons for delays in service which was unnecessary but very much appreciated. Great for groups.
Amazing setting but service and food just wasn't that great. Signature paella was overly oily/buttery with little flavor. Shrimp was alright but the bread just didn't quite work with the oil around the shrimp, felt like the flavor wasn't developed enough. Mushroom croquettes were also alright - they had an overwhelming truffle flavor so I wasn't a big fan. Server seemed to have an attitude with us not ordering that much but maybe I was just misinterpreting. Not sure if this just isnt my taste or if its something else.
