Best 🥘 paella I ever had, totally worth the 45 minutes wait. Even though they were super busy the staff was totally professional in honoring the reservation and sat us promptly. The server was attentive but not over bearing. The food was amazing, you have to try all the tapas, from the bravas to the calamari to the empanadas, try everything but save room for that paella, great portions that will definitely fill you up. Overall very organized and clean space too. Def worth a visit if you are out and about in Chicago

Was really excited to try this place out as i’ve heard only good things about it so my expectations were pretty high. Place was cute but a but tight, wish they could’ve been placed a bit further from each other! Our server was lovely, she was always checking up on us, overall great service. Food was just okay, i’ve had better Paella’s.

I don’t know why, but we were charged 10 more dollars out of nowhere when we checked the bank account after a few days. This was very awful. Atmosphere was good. Food was not that satisfactory but OK. Service was also OK; the low score here is just for the 10 dollars. ———— Added on Sep. 23, 2025 According to the owner’s previous reply, I contacted the business through their website’s emailing system (good to know that they have such a system!). They replied swiftly, asked for more detailed information, and promised to refund the extra charge back to the original payment method in a few days. Still waiting for it now. (Updated on Sep. 24: We've got it. ) This place is good in general. Actually we went there twice before we realized we were overchaged. Hope that such unhappy experience will not happen again in the future! I would definitely give more tips if provided with excellent service, but not in this way.

We came to Ba-Ba-Reeba as a continuation of celebrating my birthday weekend. First of all, what a spot. Great for big groups and couples alike. They have a lot of seating options, from the terrace to the more private back room spaces. We ended up being seated in the terrace room which was big and airy and filled up quickly with diners as the night progressed. For dinner, my better half and I shared the chicken paella. If you're going as a couple, the paella is plenty of food for two with no need for appetizers. We went back and forth with trying to decide whether to order a sangria pitcher or the flight. Finally settled on the flight, and I was so glad that I got to try most of the flavors offered. Our favorite ended up being the white peach. The red sangria seemed to us a bit on the drier side. We were too full for dessert, so will have a reason to come back and try those next time. Special shout out to our waiter Alex who took special care of us and juggled so many tables tonight. You were a true marvel to watch!!
