   The ambiance of the outside terrace was so perfect last night (76 degrees and clear skies also were a plus). The outside bar was a little crowded and they only had one bartender but he was working hard. Our table was nice, the couch seating on the one side was cozy, and the food, oh the food was delicious! We had someone with some food allergies and the server noted on the menu which plates we could alter and which plates contained her allergen so it made ordering for the 4 of us much easier. We all said we would definitely come back to Cabra's.

   Great food and ambiance. Definitely order 2-3 plates per person; the espresso martini was a great way to end the night!

   Love all of Stephanie’s restaurants. This might be my favorite. It was a hit for the entire party varied age group. We had so much fun. Will definitely be back.

   This was my first time going to Cabra, as well as my family member’s first time. The whole aesthetic of the restaurant is pleasing and fun! We loved the small plate concept, because we tried so many new and delicious flavors. Our favorite dish was the Jalea Mixta- absolutely wonderful! We will definitely be coming back.

    Had a nice time but would wait at least 20 minutes before we saw a server to ask for anything. For the price one pays, you would expect better service

    The food quality was uneven - Camerones tacu and salmon ceviche, delicious- steak Salgado, way too salty and could not even eat it. If the server had been more attentive, we would have told him this, but he never appeared to check. For the money, the service should have been top notch. When the server was at our table, he was great, but just seemed too busy to check in. We would have ordered more drinks or even dessert but had to waiting too long.

    Food is really terrible. We started with a creamy chorizo concoction that looked and tasted like Dolmio. Then two tasteless empanadas appeared, made with puff pastry instead of the real thing. We had high expectations for the Tiradito and Cheviche dishes, that elevated the Peruvian cuisine to very high standards. Boy how wrong we were and how we missed Coya or Lima or even Nobu when we tasted those pieces of murdered fish. The Chicharron de Puerco was well cooked…what they serve it with? A selection of mayonnaise sauces. Really? The cocktails, the bar and the outside space are great, just don’t come for dinner.

    Our service was really sub par. I was so surprised because usually at any of Stephanie izzards restaurants the staff is engaging and helpful and really wants to lead you through a good experience. We barely spoke to our waiter and had to wait a very long time to order and to follow up with ordering more drinks. Hoping it was an off night with this waiter perhaps being assigned to too many tables. The man delivering our food though was very helpful, as o had a dairy allergy and he followed up to ask questions and correct one of the items we received with dairy.

    We have to push a reservation back by 15 minutes and we’re repeatedly denied we asked for cocktails that took 30 minutes to arrive and arrived adyrr our first three food items. We asked for heaters to be turned on it was a very chilly evening on the patio they refused us at the end of our meal we asked to have one last glass of wine and they told us we were past our time limit and had to leave. Terrible service unattentive had to ask for our food and drinks multiple times and we’re left waiting a lot.

    Went on a Tuesday thinking it was going to be a quiet evening. It was packed! So loud that it was hard to have a conversation depending on where you’re seated. Seats near the windows and patio seem to be the least noisy. Drinks are great - I always get the huckleberry one. Hit or miss with the small plates for me. Some are really good and some we couldn’t finish.

    The meal was amazing, every dish was better than the next. Highly recommend Avocado Dip, Chicharron De Puerco, and Jalea Mixta. The server was truly thoughtful and not rushing our meal. The outside patio was slightly noisy due to an air conditioning unit but delightful on a cool August Chicago night.

    The restaurant was nearly empty when I arrived. I was told I would be seated at table but to wait a few minutes. After waiting, the host told us that we would need to sit at the bar, but could order food there. After sitting at the bar, I saw there were a ton of reservations on OpenTable. I made a reservation, walked back to the host's stand and asked to be seated at a table, which I was. The whole while I was there, only a small handful of additional parties were seated. It was truly a bizarre experience to be denied a table with many available. Decor was nice, food was good, server was helpful and did a good job. Prices were a bit high for the amount of food received.

    Server/service was inconsistent and just not communicating with us which made the experience a bit awkward. Waited a while for certain things because either it was not put in or there was a miscommunication. But overall the food and drinks were great.

    Party of 4, we ordered about 8 dishes, all of which were portioned well for 4 and spaced well between dishes. Highlights were the solterito, the quinoa & tuna salad, the steak saltado, and shrimp tacu tacu. Pro tip: if you order ceviche ask for chips on the side. Last highlight, the "Warming up in Qaxaca" cocktail was excellent.

    Haven't been since the spot opened years ago, and while we enjoyed haven't been back since. BUT every brunch dish we had was amazing and now am excited to have a space to go to that seems to be easy enough to book the day before, with great cocktails and delicious shareable bites.

    The food was very good. The service, however, was not. The waiter was aloof and only checked on us once to bring us water. The busser spilled ceviche liquid on my partner and didn’t even acknowledge it. It felt like they were anxious to turn over tables. We get that it is a business, but there are ways to make diners feel welcomed and keep tables turning at the same time. With so many great restaurants in Chicago (including many of the other Boka group places) service is make or break. We will not be returning.
