    10/10 experience!! Ashton was our server and I’m glad we got waited on by him!!! Such a cool person and he did an amazing job!! I brought my girlfriend here for an early Valentine’s Day celebration and I don’t regret it at all. We loved the ambiance and especially the food. We started off with the Costera Guacamole and it was amazing I love the little spice it had. For entrees she had the Pollo al horno and I had the Carne asada cooked medium well and we shared a side of French fries and Arroz con Frijoles. We enjoyed everything the carne was so juicy and tender we enchilada that was included was very good as well I loved the sweet molé. I pretty much cleaned up the plate. For desserts we got surprised by Ashton with a mango sorbet and it was delicious thanks again Ashton !! We also had the Coconut flan and it was absolutely delicious as well!!! We will definitely be back and ask for Ashton !!

    Wonderful experience with my wife. Made reservations for 4pm (definitely make reservations if you plan anything after 4pm on a Saturday) , which ended up being perfect, the ambiance and the decor where spot on aligned well with the overall vibe. We sat by the kitchen, and it was great watching the Chef and the sous chefs work, great people watching. To our pleasant surprise we arrived during restaurant week and took part of the menu for the event which was paired with drinks for each course, all perfectly paired. We did venture into the regular menu which was not only visually spectacular but was some of the best food I have had in Chicago. Last, but definitely not least, the service was impeccable, never had to want for anything, well worth the expense. Located close to Ogilvie and Union station which made for an easy trip from the Northeastern corridor. We would definitely go back and highly recommend avec!
