Best Restaurants with a Happy Hour in Belmont Central / Cragin

Cafe Ba-Ba-Reeba never disappoints! It’s been a few years since we’ve dined here and it was just as delicious as I remembered! We love tapas style dining - we got the opportunity to try so many things on the menu. The seafood paella was the highlight. We also enjoyed the bacon wrapped dates, brussel spout salad, patatas bravas, hanger steak, and Iberico pork. A pitcher of passion fruit sangria was a great complement.

Food was excellent! Scott was a very attentive server! Both Scott and his colleague Andrew Spence (who seated us and made great wine suggestions), were highly knowledgeable about the menu and we enjoyed speaking with them. It was a lovely evening and we’d definitely return. The truffle gnocchi, meatball appetizer, salmon, scallops, and filet were all outstanding!

Burgers were to die for! The general manager sat us at a scenic area and gave us some information as it was our first time in Chicago. Only down side was we ordered calamari but never got it and the server checked on us when we were already done our meal without ever receiving the appetizer. Otherwise the restaurant was beautiful and food was so good. Would definitely return.

Happy Hour was a nice treat. Fabulous margaritas and guacamole. Delicious food in a fun place. Attentive, but not overbearing service.

From the friendly and welcoming reception staff to the awesome waitress my experience was wonderful! It was my first visit and my server gets an A+ for her recommendations! I dined alone and the atmosphere and ambiance was welcoming and un rushed. And my meal was scrumptious! I’ll definitely return!
