This is the third tapas restaurant we have visited in Chicagoland and it is so far the best. The restaurant has a standard menu and a large daily special menu to keep things interesting. We ordered four tapas plates, two from the standard menu and two from the daily menu. We also ordered a single serving of seafood paella along with two desserts and a few drinks. Menu prices ranged quite widely but expect the bill to be between $100-175 for two depending on drink orders. Everything was very good. If we are going to be picky the beef was slightly under seasoned as was the fish in the paella. The patio was lovely as was the interior seating. The service was fantastic. The waiter was quick to o...
I don't usually go to a tapas restaurant, but if I do, I'm never disappointed. Emilio is no exception. The variety of tapas on the menu was all well and well designed. I especially enjoyed the bloodworm and the grilled Calamari. But all the food was tasteful and filling, and I had tried an explosion to try out all the different tapas my party ordered. The tapas were served quickly, although the restaurant was packed when I left, and I appreciate this to the excellent, friendly service. Anna, our server, went beyond and beyond to make sure we all take care. All this came in a colourful, warm atmosphere that was unique in the restaurant. I would definitely recommend this place to others when i...
Here at an impromptu date. The place was busy, but we could sit fast. The food was amazing. We shared several records and our server delivered great suggestions. They were out of some things on the special list that leads me to believe they were looking for. The recommended substitute dishes were amazing. The staff is great and they have a great system to ensure that your table also tends. I definitely recommend this place.
We love Emilio's! Whenever we're in the burbs visiting family, we take a trip for lunch or dinner and EVERYONE walks away happy. I've eaten lots of amazing food in Spain, and Emilio brings the same spirit and recipes state-side, without skimping on flavor or authenticity. This is a MUST visit for tapas fans and full-family dining. You won't be disappointed!

First time back here in a while. Food was excellent. We had the paella, soft shell crab, calamari, and jamón. Calamari can be hit or miss for me, but really enjoyed it here! Plus they had live music the day we went. Really enjoyed that, it adds to the experience. Will definitely be back and I recommend it!
A sad day at one of my most beloved eateries. I haven't been there since before COVID. The food was on point then. Today? Not so much. The paella was dry and almost flavorless. The stuffed mushrooms were tough and almost flavorless. The garlic potato salad was ON POINT though. It saved the meal!
I had a fabulous time to celebrate my wedding day. Emilio the owner and large cook goes to the table by table control. Food is fabulous. MY WAITED ALFREDO WAS SUPERB. I'll love it. Please book if you want to come.
We had a lovely time. We celebrated our six year anniversary. We will definitely be back. The service was wonderful and the food was delicious!

Excellent food and a great ted Sangria. The Atmosphere makes you feel like you're in a restaurant in Spain.
Free Sangria with dinner every Sunday. Paella is really good. Appetizers are also good.
