    This was a great dinner! I loved the beat salad. It was very fresh and flavorful. I also loved the octopus. It was perfectly crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. The plate was filled with lots of flavors and came with mole sauce. I highly recommend. The chicken dish was very tasty, too. We sat outside on a beautiful night and received good service.

    Calamari
    Jaslyn S.

    First time here for a friend's birthday dinner. Arrived around 7p, a reservation had been made and we were taken immediately. It had a nice atmosphere and the service was great. Our waitress was attentive and helpful. Ordered a few appetizers; ceviche, calamari and fish flautas . I only tried the calamari it was crispy and was good. A few drink favorites from the night were La toxica and old fashioned. There were 6 of us and 3 ordered the Fideo de mariscos which was enjoyed and got good reviews for flavor . 2 got the bistec alteno and I ordered the special of the night which el trompo, which was Al pastor served with charro beans , cilantro, onions , and salsa w tortillas. The meat was cooked perfectly and had great flavor. Definitely enough to share , I brought home leftovers. A mariachi band showed up later in evening for entertainment which was fun, definitely would go back to try something new .

    Family dinner decided on tacos...fish and shrimp tacos, balbacoa and asada with a side choice of cilantro rice or frijoles (beans) delicious. Place was very clean, great customer service and waitress was knowledgeable helping us with dish choice.

    1st time here and enjoyed most of the dishes with my friend. This is a roomy restaurant with many seating tables. The service is good.

    Lamb chops

    Honestly I was so excited about trying this restaurant. It had been on my list for a long time, once I finally went it was truly disappointing. The drinks were weak, they looked very cute but lacked flavor. The lamb chops were good, but very small for the price. The guacamole lacked seasoning. It wasn't packed at the time I went however it was difficult to get our waitress to check up on us. The restaurant is cute, but very overpriced for the area and quality.

    Had a nice time here! Good music, vibes, and service. We ordered the Sopesitos (appetizer) and Barbacoa tacos (entre) with rice/beans. The best part were the drinks and the shot on the house we received! They knew how to make us happy. We ordered an old fashioned & peach tequila drink. Both incredible! The Old Fashioned had an orange peel engraved into the ice with smoke coming out of the glass, very creative. Toward the end of the night, they had a mariachi, which bought the energy up even higher! Not sure if it was for a party or normal for them to do. Personal review: 7.3

    So yummy!

    My first time here, came to celebrate my birthday and it wasn't what I expected at all. Small portions, very pricey but very tasty. Drinks were awesome! Our waitress was really nice, friendly and knowledgeable with the menu. The location was pretty, limited parking and more like a bar than a restaurant. Might give it a second chance!

    Mar y tierra Barbacoa
    Matt R.

    The first impression you get is wow. The place was really cute with the exposed brick and the neon signs and the fake ivy and plants all around. The servers are all wearing nice stripped shirts and the natural light this place has is really great. The silverware was like a rose gold and the cute starter plates contrasted very nicely. The service is great as soon as you walk in from the door. Our waiter was an older gentleman and was very welcoming and helpful. That's where all the good things end.... First of all, the food pricing was very concerning because it gives you very high expectations. You see the menu and you're like maybe this place is one of those pricey but yet life changing establishments. Not the case. Our bill was $122 for 2 main dishes, 1 appetizer, and 1 cocktail. We got the banderillas to start and were not blown away by this. The fries were very basic and not seasoned at all. McDonalds fries would have been better. The steak and shrimp skewers were a pain to eat because the food fused with the screwer. The steak was ok but I would have been nice to see more meat. I had 3 steak pieces and the smallest veggies. There was also only 2 shrimps on the other. For $18 I was expecting quantity or at least quality. Next up, my wife ordered the Mar y Tierra. The mashed potatoes were the star of the plate. The steak was asked to be medium well and we got extra well done. The top of her steak was dried out and hard. It was hard to see a fillet go to waste like that. The wild mushrooms were sautéed in oil and that's about it. The shrimps were tossed in a garlic butter and that's about it. For $50 my wife was not happy. She also ordered the house cocktail and thankfully she said it was good. I got the Barbacoa and regret it. The food was soo bland. The "green" rice was tasteless and kind of left your mouth dry. It was cooked all the way but very reheated vibes were given. The beans were soo sad. I'm Guatemalan and I know black beans and I can say these were the worst by far I've ever had. They were just mashed back beans. No garlic, onion or salt. It was offensive! The Barbacoa was served in a really nice Staub dish. It was garnished with red onion and day old cilantro. That's what it felt and tasted like. Once again the dish was under seasoned and disappointing. They were trying to go fine dinning and updated Mexican but what they served us today was sad, tasteless Mexi-cant. No bueno amigos!

    Omg! Fantastic food! Flavor explosion! Drinks were perfect and the entire vibe was a great time owner Luis was extremely helpful and informative. The waitress new the menu and was so helpful! Highly recommend!

I added a touch of salt. A nice thin sliced and tomato was on the side with pickles and lettuce. What a power packed lunch , and I only could finish half, so that's really a lunch for 2 $15! At a sit down restaurant, that's in a clean environment, in a great neighborhood. What value. Reminds me of the Pittsfield Cafe located in the lobby of the Pittsfield Building on Washington & Wabash Avenue downtown Chicago. Such a bustling a wonderful place at its peak time. Located across from MacNeal Hospital, Loyola Medical Cancer Center. Serving a great value to many visitors. Doing a great job here. Across from the Burlington Line, Metra Station. Easy stop. Oak Park Avenue , Berwyn. Many hair salons, nice bar next door: a small antiques shop west of here. Fantastic grocery store up the block just South of tracks. Nice YMCA facility just North with several Baptist Churches I noticed. Many beautiful parks, north and south down oak park avenue, just West

We tried several dishes, but our favorites were definitely the Chicken Satay and Massaman Curry. Both were packed with flavor and absolutely delicious. Great food, great drinks, and even better company. Habrae is definitely worth a visit!

    The service slow but sincere. No one was in a hurry. There were many Interesting sushi choices but…read moremany included too many unnecessary additional sauces and or spreads. I don't need spicy mayos or exotic spreads because those mask the fish. I always wonder why the main ingredients are not allowed to stand alone, without the sauces? I guess I am a purist. The sushi rolls were good, although the eel was much more flavorful. The salmon roll had many things in it which I cannot identify. The salmon was either a paste or tiny bits of leftover salmon pressed together. It felt like cheating. It was ok, a bit mushy and I would not order it again. The Shumai was disappointing because the pork (?) and shrimp combination was also a paste and mushy. No distinct shrimp or pork flavor or actual pieces of shrimp or pork. Again, it seemed like leftover bits from other prepped dishes. The flavor was nondescript and the dipping sauce didn't suit it. The spicy garlic shrimp spaghetti was a winner. Plenty of jumbo shrimp and one had a choice of heat level. The dish was pronounced excellent. Yay! We would go back but order differently. The staff was nice but the service was slow, especially because they were not crowded.

That was nice, I suppose, but there is no entrance in the back. We ended up parking just down the street and walking, unfortunately in the rain. Some of that is important for as long as the construction lasts. Our GPS issue has nothing to do with the restaurant. It's just a friendly FYI in case it's your first time. The place was cute, but kind of ordinary. I was surprised when trying to find the restroom there is another big room of tables behind the bar. Servers were attentive, but they mislead us just a bit. Our friend asked about the paella and was told it was, or maybe could be (?) a single serving. Well... no way. It was massive. I believe he enjoyed it, but didn't come close to finishing it. I'd say it's easily a two-person meal. We were also told pizzas were individual size. The pizza had eight slices and could easily serve two. Mark enjoyed it. He ordered the four cheese pizza, which included blue cheese. I took a bite and definitely tasted it and didn't care for it. I think the blue cheese might have been one reason Mark DID like it. I ordered an appetizer, PULPO A LA PLANCHA from the Hot Tapas menu. It was quite good. I also had the soup of the day, which was mushroom. It was delicious! I finished all my food and was perfectly satisfied and full.
