Tapas Restaurants near Bartlett, IL

“Garrett, our server was great from the moment we sat down. He helped us decide what to order, made sure our beverages were delivered (not 21), and expedited the kitchen when my pizza came out wrong! The salads and pizzas (all ordered lunch specials) were outstanding.“

“Cauliflower app was amazing. Burgers are generous. Premium ingredients. Service outstanding. Atmosphere is great but seating is not comfortable. Chairs felt not stable. High top. I had a sincere senior and the next 2 tables had the same. Might sound crazy but I felt stressed because I thought one of them was bound to fall. ( getting on or off their chair)“

“Came here on a Sunday night for the first time. We were delighted to see the "oysters for $1.50 all day" sign upon our approach. Yes, please! Josh gave us the drink menu run down. You will want one of each, but I tried two on this visit. The pink one is Familiar Places and the other is Confucius' Final Cocktail. Yes, the cookie gets a little soggy on one side, but it is soaked in a lovely alcohol concoction. No complaints. See photos.The menu is small plates. After the oysters, we had the fried white anchovies, grilled octopus (our test for any restaurant offering it and they passed with flying colors), croquettes - spanish style, and a small charcuterie plate. All fresh, and amazing. Loved the accompanying sauces for each dish.They will have outdoor seating for summer which is perfect. The seating indoors is intimate, but inviting and we never felt rushed. A great date night spot or a stop for a true, craft cocktail.The owner, Devin, was there and is also hands-on to take a drink order or answer questions. The kitchen staff prepares the food quickly, but it's obvious that they take care and pride in their preparation and service.We will back for sure!“

“The food here is awesome, the service here is usually great. Tonight though, our server carleigh was exceptionally horrible. It started out fine even though I could easily tell she had been drinking for what seemed like the entire night based on the fact that when she was looking at you, she was moreso looking through you. That, and the fact that she had to pause every few seconds to remember what she was just saying. All of that taken into account, my partner and I laughed it off.When I noticed both serving plates on the table were dirty, I politely let her know “hey, I understand this happens, but these plates are dirty. Do you mind if we replace them?” ……she then proceeded to pick up the plates and say “how are they dirty”Hahahaha okayAfter that she probably saw our table two last times, one being for the check.She then proceeded to have us waiting for 6-7 minutes for her to come BACK and grab the card from us —so her busser had come by and done it for her. When she finally came to grab the check, she literally non-verbally signaled for the card with her hands in the air and finally goes “the card?”Look- if you’re going to drink on the job, make sure you’re a functioning, kind drunk.Pasta was great.“

“Delicious food! The atmosphere is intimate and set in, what looks like, a house. It's a small space but perfect for a date night or dinner with friends/family. The tacos are amazing! As is the guacamole and potatoes. Everything I had was 10/10. The drinks are incredible too. Highly recommend coming if you're in the area. The flavors and dishes are unique and not like anything you'll get anywhere else. The chef does an amazing job.“

“I was very impressed by Fire and Wine. It has a casual vibe. Obviously a local favorite. Each dish was excellent in taste and presentation. Service was great! Both the hostess and server were happy to share recommendations of their favorite dishes. We had the black pepper shrimp appetizer and the pizza bread for the tasty sauce!! We enjoyed our salads and entrees. We were too full for dessert! As we left, I was impressed at how clean the restaurant was- even after serving such a large crowd. Nice place. Good culture. Recommend!“

“Ate in Wheaton. Our server was a delight and gave us attention. Asked for mor corn chips. What I was not happy about was my Paella . Such a small portion of Paella with Mussels added around edge with bread slices around bowl. Covered with Raw cabbage slaw! Slaw was not needed. Oh and can we talk about ever shrinking Gauc trio!?!! I swear a tablespoon of each. Not sure if it was just an off night or the difference between Wheaton and Geneva. Never had a bad meal in Geneva Altiro.“

“Delicious food made with quality, fresh ingredients. The caramelized pear and onion pizza with the beat salad was delicious! I got the lunch special which was reasonably priced. The atmosphere/vibe is nice, too. If I could give 4.5 stars to food and service I would. I would definitely recommend to others and come back myself.“

“Our experience was absolutely amazing!! As a local business owner as well in Geneva I kept hearing about this restaurant from multiple clients and it did not disappoint!Our server was absolutely amazing, she did not rush us, she was very sweet, and very genuine when it came to describing the food.The food was 10/10! The beetroot salad with chive ice cream was incredible. It sounds like it would be questionable but it is such an amazing and brilliant combination of flavors. The scallops were out of this world and cooked to perfection.We did not have one bad dish and will definitely be back! And for as fine dining goes I don’t think the prices were outrageous for the quality of work, service and ambiance that was given.Can’t say enough good things! Thank you Mandrake :)“
