The Scene – Adobo's ambience is warm; the crowd is loud, young and professional. The exposed-brick walls are accented by sun-drenched Southwestern colors, bright artwork and two beautiful vintage bars.

Best Margarita in Chicago!

by BeagleFrenzy at Citysearch

I almost do not want to leave such a good review because then it will get too crowded - but seriosly this is the best margarita I've had in this city so far. We've only tried a few appetizers, but the service is always great and what we've had has been wonderful! We're going back for a full dinner real soon!

Nothing special and very expensive

by debbiem534 at Citysearch

We experienced a very expensive but lackluster dining experience Friday Jan. 18th at the Lombard Yorktown location. Very very expensive for the small portions. Taste was nothing special either. Better off almost any other restaurant. Will not return. All 4 of us were VERY dissapointed.

Good Upscale Mexican

by kiki80 at Citysearch

Adobo is a great place to start off the night. Great guacamole, tasty margaritas, good food. It is a festive place that is a step (or two) above your typical mexican joint. The tequila flights amke for a fun evening as well-- be careful! Great place for groups.

  • Pros: guac, margaritas
  • Cons: loud, long waits

Where to Sit:

If you want to be part of the action (and noise), sit downstairs; for more privacy (and a totally smoke-free environment), request the second floor, which is open on weekends and for private parties.

The Extras:

The restaurant features more than 90 sipping tequilas divided among Blancos (white), Reposados (rested) and Anejos (aged); flights of three are available from $8.25 to $19 and come with a spicy tomato juice chaser.
