Wonderful Cuban food! Great cocktails, prompt and personal service. Our waiter gave us great suggestions on dishes and wine. A fun night out!

Just visited for the first time, fairly busy Saturday evening. Staff was friendly and attentive. Mofongo was excellent, sancocho was also a standout.

Very happy to follow this next chapter in Chef Mendez’s journey. We loved Vera. After Michael Nagrant’s review we knew we needed to get in here.
Dark lighting so my photos aren’t great but we really enjoyed everything. Started with tamarindo tequila cocktails and Albariño wine. First course avocado/crab on tostones nice texture and flavor combo; bacalao potato cake not salty at all, distinct flavors. Pulpo octopus the most tender you could imagine. Main course fish escabeche was branzino (menu said mackerel) light and fluffy with some heat. Hongos (mushrooms) with squash and polenta had a nice cumin-y kick. Arroz mamposteao an intriguing dish of flavor combination. And the sancocho. The first dish I experienced in Colombia so it looms large in my culinary memory … and this was perfect. Every spoonful with flavor from the broth, zesty but not hot, well-prepared short ribs.
We will be back -wanted to try much more!

What a treat! Came down to have dinner before a show at Theo Ubique. The service couldn't have been more friendly, and the all of the food was great, but we like the sancocho and pescado escabeche the best. This is not too spicy, for people who worry about that....Dessert was so good we ate most of it before I could take picture! The rice dessert even convinced my rice hating Mom. We will absolutely come back.

Another great find. My wife and I focus on reviewing restaurants that do a great job, and skip the ones we're not happy with. Eatestacion in Evanston, IL is a find. We were with friends, and we all agreed that every bite was a treat. We had 3 appetizers (suggested by Alba), and three main courses (suggested by Alba) and we enjoyed the dinner immensely. Congratulations to the owner and staff. They did an outstanding job. And, on top of the meal, the bar (although limited) was really tasty. We'll be back.

Delicious food, thoughtful service, crafted beverage menu. If you like Puerto Rican food, I highly recommend! I want this place to be a destination in the city, and think it is a great contribution to our vibrant, multicultural restaurant collection on Howard.

This was a nice place to try. The food was good and the staff was helpful. I love that it is the same people as Libertad- different food, but still as good!
