Editorial Review for Emilio's Tapas Restaurant – by Citysearch Editors

In Short
Large windows looking out onto busy Clark Street make this comfy restaurant a prime spot for Lincoln Park people-watching. A cozy bar and colorful murals warm the spacious room; stacks of small plates on tables suggest the feast to come. The menu of hot and cold tapas includes traditional favorites like chicken and ham croquettas, grilled shrimp with garlic, and baked goat cheese, plus sinful options like buttery escargot and thin slices of marinated lamb.

I did not know what to expect going there for the first time. The experience was great all around. We were seated promptly. Waitress was very patient and explained everything. They have a great selection of tapas and I wanted to try everything. Tried the cold salmon, not great and too salty; steer clear. Wonderful wine selection. Plates are bigger than most tapas restaurants. Slightly pricey, but well worth the privacy and service. Am definitely coming back to finish the menu.

Pros: ambiance, food portions

Cons: parking, price

8 of us when to Emilio's on a Sunday night. I was surprised at how quiet it was, but we were seated right away and had relatively quick service - two of the couples had to wait until the very end to get anything that they ordered, but the rest came out pretty regularly. Sangria was good and we were loud and stayed for a long time and the service was great.

Pros: Pretty Quiet and never felt rushed

Cons: make sure you tell them if you have groups and what you want first
