Seafood-focused Spanish eatery with unique global fish dishes
"Hidden below ground level, this intimate Spanish-influenced restaurant in Lakeview captures the essence of seaside eating through coastal delights like seared sea scallops, boquerones, seafood fideos, and Basque cake. It’s won a Michelin Bib Gourmand Award every year since opening in 2014. Book a table through Resy." - Samantha Nelson, Eater Staff
"The cozy subterranean Spanish-influenced seafood restaurant on the border of Lakeview and Lincoln Park has served big Michelin-recognized flavors since 2014." - Eater Staff, Ashok Selvam
"A Spanish restaurant known for its seafood dishes and coastal Spanish cuisine." - MICHELIN Guide
"Even though MFK sits below street level on Diversey, it’s one million times more zen than a Lakeview garden unit. This small seafood spot specializes in coastal Spanish food, but the simple fish dishes—like the suzuki crudo with fish flown in from Japan twice weekly, or the rotating whole fish special—are what shine here. Dim lighting feels like you’re perpetually eating at sunset, and the small space makes for a cozy environment that’s perfect for light snacks at the bar or a weeknight date." - veda kilaru
