Tapas Restaurants near Highwood, IL

“This cozy neighborhood gem was outstanding on a cold Saturday night. The hospitable and warm wait staff made it feel like we were family. Small booths and tables. Intimate. Got very noisy as it filled up midway into our meal. Tuna tapas and scallop dish simply amazing. Spanish flan desert was firm with small strawberries a nice addition. Plus we got a 15 percent discount for coming out on a super cold evening.“

“Super…Great service from Ashley!!“

“We came here for dinner tonight and we thoroughly enjoyed our experience! The best way to describe our meal is “elevated comfort food!” Everything we ordered, came out beautifully plated, very quick service, even with a full house, and very attentive staff. We ordered the spiced carrots, naan, brisket, and pork belly. All of them were delicious, and my favorite by far was the pork belly, perfectly seared and paired with an excellent sauce. The berry spritzer cocktail was refreshing and not too sweet, dessert was just right, overall fantastic experience. We will definitely come back!“

“Always a good time and food is always on point. Love it“

“My first time eating lunch at Ema was outstanding. I was meeting a colleague and wasn’t sure what to expect because we had a lot of work to cover. The entire staff was very helpful, courteous and knowledgeable about the menu. We received wonderful service and had a very healthy lunch. The food was great and all our salads were fresh and delicious.“
