Ziba's Bistro and Wine Bar

Food was amazing, service on point, and the atmosphere was lovely…. Went for Mother’s Day and left a happier family :) definitely try out the baba ganoush! I don’t like eggplant, but they turned it into something magical.

Recently moved to the Grant Park area, and Ziba’s has become a fast favorite! Every Friday night, I ordered the fish and chips…delicious! The entire staff is always welcoming, and genuinely happy to see you.

I’m a business owner myself and understand the value of a good review. I’m confused as to why anyone would give this restaurant anything less than 5 stars. Some are talking about the price, the soda refills, maybe being understaffed, but this place deserves all the credit. All the prices are on the menu, the place is really small (a touch cramped) but the food shines beyond measure.. that to me is what’s important. Not the decor on the walls or the 15-20 wait for food… THE FOOD just was just so absolutely amazing. We had the bow tie with blackened chicken and the penne. 875 out of 10 and a hood michelin star ✨ Reid was cool too

Great hidden gem in grant park! Very warm atmosphere - loved all the candies making it very inviting Service was great! They even worked to create a meal that accommodated my gluten and dairy free diet. I got the chicken pancetta - but grilled instead of fried chicken with a special creation sauce (olive oil, garlic, white wine) instead of the normal dairy lemon based sauce. My meal was very healthy and fresh tasting. Friends got the bow tie pasta and lasagna and liked it! Friend also tried the chocolate chip bread pudding and liked it. On our second visit, I got the steak and fries / the steak could have used more flavor. Fries were good. My husband got the Wednesday special which was prime rib - good flavor but a little on the fatty side.

We went for Monday night oysters and a couple French 75s! They did not disappoint! We arrived early but they started with a healthy buzzy crowd! We had several appetizers including the spicy shrimp *2 and coconut mussels! The flavor on each, on point and truly delicious! Can't wait to return to try some of the other flavors of mussels! Thanks, Ziba's for an awesomely flavorful dinner! Sorry, no photos, too anxious to get into our dishes as they arrived at a perfect pace!

This is a very stylish restaurant in a hip area. We went on Valentine’s Day, so it was a bit crowded, but I’m not sure if tables are normally that close or if it was just because of the holiday. We had reservations, but still had quite a wait maybe about 20 or so minutes. However, service was really good and the food was great. I had crabcakes and they did not disappoint.

This place quickly became one of my absolute favorites in year 2023 and I’ve been going ever since—I seriously can’t get enough! The food is consistently delicious, the drinks are top-notch, and the atmosphere is always inviting. But what really sets it apart is the staff: every server I’ve encountered has been warm, attentive, and genuinely kind. It’s the kind of spot that keeps you coming back not just for what’s on the menu, but for how it makes you feel. A true gem!

It’s not just Grant Park but Atlanta’s Best Kept Secret ! This is a charming quaint unique restaurant full of soulful ambiance while serving delicious variety of yummy entrees and spirits . The superb service take dining to another level . There is great music as well! The daily specials are a remarkable value . The owner and staff are hard working and has kept this restaurant consistently top quality . Thankful for this magical gem in Atlanta !

Love the atmosphere. This restaurant has timeless charm and romantic ambiance. I got a half spinach salad with salmon, and it was AMAZING! It had spinach, avocado, hard boiled egg, feta, and bacon with Greek feta dressing. My kind of salad! They don't know what gluten is but they have lots of gluten free options, by virtue of the fact that it's Mediterranean food. I heard that the chicken kebob and mussles are good too. There's free street parking nearby.

Spice and Spirit: A Rye Whiskey Experience hosted by Dad's Whiskey Stash owned by Jason. The whiskey tasting was $35 plus tax at Ziba's Restaurant and Wine bar. We got a complimentary whiskey drink four Rye Whiskeys and a mini charcuterie board for the table. Ziba has street parking only. You can only park on the side streets. Jason was an amazing teacher. He did a great job hosting the tasting. The group truly enjoyed sharing our thoughts on the various whiskeys. We tasted the following whiskeys: * Laws Straight Rye * Uncle Nearest Rye * Resurgence Rye * Rye & Son's Rye Whiskey I got to order additional food from the menu. The oysters were pretty good. They came with crackers, mini hot sauce, cocktail, and horseradish sauce. The oysters tasted pretty fresh. A friend ordered the bread pudding. It was amazing. Definitely give it a try. Another friend ordered the beignets. They were disappointing. They tasted like unglazed donuts, nothing like a beignet. I would definitely go to another tasting hosted by Dad's Whiskey Stash. Thanks for a great time, Jason!! Your wife is the best.

Really great food and reasonable prices. Great friendly service and nice atmosphere. It's a good spot for a casual dinner with friends or family, or a date night. Will return!

Great food, great service- great outdoor atmosphere. I love a warm spring evening here- grab small plates, a drink and people watch in Grant Park. My favorite small plate, Chicken Kabob but I also recommend the Spicy Shrimp which arrives in a bowl much larger than you expect with bread. My husband recommends the Ahi Tuna Tacos (I don't like raw fish but it looked prepared well so I ordered it anyway. It reconfirmed, I do not like raw fish) The salads are huge-add the smoked Salmon and you have a full meal. Service was great- our server (Leon) was very patient(I take a long time to review a menu) He almost tempted me with the dessert menu but my drink(The Bichon) was dessert and worth the $12 because it was large and not a small drink. The restroom did feel a bit tight like in a dungeon but besides this the restaurant is beautiful.

I found this place in Seated, and if you don't know what that is, I would highly recommend you checking it out for discounts here and other great restaurants in Atlanta... Use my link below to sign up and you'll get a $10 bonus after your first meal (and I'll get $10)! https://seated.app.link/QqvwwlETnhb. Referral code jon1154. This place has a great discount on there and we got a tremendous discount here. Aside from that, the food and service was excellent and kept us coming back! The mussels are a MUST. The portion is huge and the sauce is amazing. Even my 2 and 4 year old loved it. I keep coming back for that alone. I also have ordered the whole fish zambrano which was very tasty as well and came with hearts of palm which I enjoyed a lot too. On the service side, I have never had a bad experience, and the staff has loved my little girls. Really positive experience every time!

Ziba's is such an amazing place. More than a neighborhood spot. More than a convenient location. Literally a place you can call yours. The staff is always outstanding. The food is always good. And the French 75s are perfect. I've had the bow tie pasta. Very good. My favorite so far is the whole fish with artichokes and pita bread. Give us a try. It's worth it.

Family owned restaurant that is a great place in Grant Park. We really enjoy walking around the corner and finding this hidden gem. We loved the food. The charcuterie board was a fantastic thing to share. The service is wonderful. It's a great spot to spend a relaxing night. Sitting outside can be a bit loud with street traffic but on a great fall day the patio is a must!

Came back and just as good. It rained and that set the perfect mood. It's a nice Euro style bistro setting. No rushing you from your table, ambient lighting and yes, the food and drinks and service were excellent. Order the Thai Chili Mussels. They come with baguette and fries. It's almost like a meal for 2 and perfect size for 4. Drinks were on point as were the paella and Crab Cames Pattie's with plenty of actual crab and not much filler.

Food was good but service a bit rough around the edges. I would return for a casual weeknight dinner.

Wow! I was blown away by the quality of this place. It's been years since I've dined at this place, and this experience might have been better than the last. We initially had dinner reservations for 6:45 pm but we arrived around 6:30 and were seated right away. Our server was super friendly and walked us through the menu. For drinks, we got the Bishon (perfect amount of sweet and bitter with a hint of mint) and French 75 and started off with chicken kabobs. The kabobs came in 3 pieces served with cucumber and a cucumber yogurt sauce. Chicken was super tender and juicy and had good flavor. For our entrees, I ordered mussels and my fiancé ordered the jambalaya. Mussels was big enough to share between two people. The sauce had tons of shallots and garlic in a super creamy sauce and was served with baguette and fries. Jambalaya was a good size portion too with tons of protein - sausage, shrimp and chicken. The restaurant definitely was a full house by the time we left so I recommend to make reservations or get there earlier. The service did slow down once they got busy but that's understandable. Can't wait to come back here for our next dinner night out.

Really good but the prices on the menu link here are a third of what they are at the restaurant. I dont think they've updated it since the inception of yelp. We went because of the prices and were kind of sucker punched, but it was a good meal all the same

Wonderful little neighborhood gem. I have eaten here twice and have not been disappointed! Service is great! Vibes are cool! This is an all around nice little spot for a date or even by yourself if you are in the neighborhood.

If you love tapas go here! Excellent service and food. I recommend making a reservation especially if you want to sit outside. Loved the spicy shrimp!

My friends were very excited to take me to the "Best Kept Secret in Grant Park" and this place is definitely a gem. The atmosphere is great and the food was even better. It is definitely unassuming from the outside, but it is very special inside. We ate with two little kids and Ziba's had a small but ample kids menu. The food was really good for kids food (I stole some pasta and French fried). For dinner, I got the Jambalaya with Shrimp, Chicken, and Andouille. It was very good and huge portion. It came with an awesome slice of spicy cornbread that was served warm. My friends got the Barbacoa and Avocado Salad which also looked amazing. I'm knocking a star for price. The food was much more expensive than I would have guessed and they even charged for soda refills (which was not explained beforehand). The service was also lackluster but they seemed to be short staffed. All in all, I would recommend it. Ziba's offers great atmosphere for a special occasion or a simple night out with date or family. Give them a try! (just don't tell anyone)

An absolute gem! We sat at the bar and Alberto was wonderful! My husband and I shared a salad and the kitchen was kind enough to split it for us. I had the steak frites and my husband had the branzino. The chocolate break pudding was amazing. My martini was made to perfect and the hand stuffed blue cheese olives were fantastic. We live south of the city, but I will come back to this restaurant again and again! Bravo!

We had a reservation at 7:00. We showed up a few minutes after and were told they were "short on tables." Once we were seated, servers immediately began rushing us to order. Then, while we were eating, servers were trying to clear our plates every few minutes despite the fact that we were clearly still eating. Food was okay. Nothing special. Ambience was nice and the interior was cute, but not enough to return. Shocked at how good the ratings are for this place.

Very cozy space. Food was very good as well, and the service was outstanding. Will definitely come back.

14 Jan 2021 My wife and I were out walking the dogs in Grant Park and decided to stop in with our pugs (outside seating, of course) and we are glad we did. Upon arrival - about 5:30ish on a Thursday night - we were greeted very warmly by the owner and a member of the wait staff, and their customer service is unparalleled. They sat us in a corner with a heater since it was a little cold, everyone came out to see our pugs, and brought us draft beers and waters. They have a Tex-Mex menu every second week of the month so we had tortillas and salsa as an appetizer. The salsa is stupid good, very spicy and a little hit but in a good way. For our main course we ordered for me a Fancy Burger, which is a hand patted sirloin beef patty with bacon, lettuce tomato and some specialty sauce on brioche - absolutely delicious, and the side of fries are seasoned and fresh and excellent. My wife had the 3 enchilada meal with rice, these enchiladas are not your average enchilada - loaded with onion, lettuce, purple onion, and some other stuff but my wife could only finish one, and they were really good, especially for a restaurant that doesn't do Mexican every day. I don't give many 5 stars out, especially since this crappy Covid hit, but they are managing to stay a very good place to hang and eat despite the pandemic. Location is one block away from Grant Park which means we will be back frequently. I wish I had gotten the waitress and owners names, but they were wonderful ladies. One last item I would like to mention: I don't think they normally give military discount but they gave it to us, and we felt really bad about that since so many places are struggling around the world, so I think that overall I would have to give this place and staff 5+ stars. I believe they have a GoFundMe set up to help them get through the pandemic so I will definitely both continue to go back and also will donate to their GoFundMe. They deserve to stay in business and we need more people and places like this. If the owner sees this I would like to say THANK YOU SO MUCH for the great service and chow and overall wonderful experience. We'll see you soon. Highly recommend and will definitely return!

the food was bomb and the service was top tier!! will definitely be coming back to try more things on the menu. I got the pasta and it was a good size portion with enough for leftovers the next day

Always enjoy discovering an intimate casual restaurant that is women-owned. In 2010, Marcie Meirndorf opened Ziba's Bistro and Wine Bar in Grant Park. The sign out front says "Grant Park's best kept secret", and they're not wrong! The relaxed ambience, attentive service, reasonable wine selection, and wide variety of dishes allows for very down-to-earth yet classy dining experience. I devored the chicken empanada as my appetizer, and savored the crab cakes with rosemary whipped potatoes for my entree. If you find yourself in the charming neighborhood of Grant Park, would definitely recommend this hidden gem!

they call themselves "the best kept secret of grant park" and I 100% agree with that sentiment. Hands down, the absolutely best mussels I've ever had in Atlanta. the service was absolutely impeccable, and though I don't remember our server's name-- she was so awesome and was doing a great job training some of the new members on the staff. while i wouldn't exactly call it "tapas style" every single dish we ordered was delicious and the portions are huge! the mussels were still *chef's kiss* the next day as leftovers. highly recommend the mussels, jambalya, hummus, and tuna tacos. and on thursdays they offer bottomless wine for only $15 for any of you out there participating in thirtsy thursdays ;) highly recommend-- only downside was that street parking was a little hard to find....but worth it.

Terrible service from Alberto. We had only kept coming (after our last horrible experience with him) because he was gone, but clearly they're desperate for workers since he's back.

Phenomenal. We had the turkey meatloaf, bowtie pasta, ahi tuna tacos, and mussels. The service was phenomenal as well. We will be back.

I love this little restaurant. It's such a hidden gem. The food is great and I love the owner. She is always there and very friendly and nice. They have great cocktails. I had the branzino last time I went and it was so good. It's very quaint and cozy and they have outdoor seating as well as indoor seating, and the indoor seating is so cute. It's on a very cute little sidewalk with a sandwich shop nearby and it's in a very safe neighborhood. I have eaten there several times and I love it.

We came with a group of 8 to Zibas on Saturday night and the experience was great. We made a reservation so there was no problem seating us. It's a very cute and homey restaurant. The menu might change from time to time but I can guarantee the food will be great. I ordered the Apple Salad with Chicken ($13.95) and my partner ordered the Jambalaya ($14.95). They were both delicious and he loved that the rice was not too mushy. Everyone loved their food and the service was great. I would highly recommend going to Ziba's. Perfect place for a date or group gathering.

My wife was in Atlanta back in May and went to Zibas with my daughters. I was just balancing our accounts and found that, even though the receipt clearly shows a total of $125.75 including the tip, the amount that was charged to our account was $10 more, $135.75. Be sure to check your bank statement after eating at Zibas!

Went to zibas on a recommendation, and it did not disappoint! This is my new favorite brunch spot! Zibas is located near Grant Park on Boulevard. It is a very welcoming and eclectic location that also serves as an event space. There is indoor, outdoor, and bar seating. Parking is on the street outside. For brunch the options were plenty. I had their take on chiliqueles and tasted the French toast as well. The bottomless mimosas were also perfect. Service was great and vibe was chill. Will be back!

Unassuming neighborhood restaurant from the outside- cozy warmly lit spot on the inside. Music playing as we walked in to our table, walking around the bar into the second room partially open to the first. Just enough of a glimpse in between rooms to see and hear the band playing. Mussels. Lotsa mussels. I recommend the creamy ones at the top of the list. Get the fries and the bread also. I know - lots of carbs. But this is for you my dear reader not to make my mistake- that while drinking affordable delicious wine and eating mussels - you'll actually have something to soak up the delicious wine. Really wish that I'd ordered more- lots of delicious pasta, salad, and interesting meatloaf dishes at the table that were eaten quickly and completely. Wait staff friendly and helpful. Let us divide checks with no fuss. Just go!

If you love mussels, then get thyself to Ziba's! I am a big mussel fan and have gotten a big bowl of them 3 of the 4 times I've been to Ziba's. The fourth time I got lasagna, which was perfect, but back to the mussels! There are four sauce options: white wine and garlic and cream, red whit garlic and tomato, beer bacon and garlic, and coconut milk lemongrass and turmeric. I've had the white sauce and the coconut milk turmeric, and next time I go it will be a hard choice whether to repeat one of those options or try a new one. The mussel bowls come with baguette and have left me very full each time. I highly recommend them, though I do realize that my love for mussels means I've hardly tried anything else on the menu. Parking can be tricky (limited street parking only), but the staff has always been great. They were especially kind when I came in with my very-pregnant self. There's a one-person, gender-neutral bathroom in the back. Check out the event listing to see when live music will be playing! I've visited Ziba's for a date, lunch with a friend, and dinner with the in-laws. I love how versatile the restaurant is and... have I mentioned the mussels?

Ziba's is such a gem! Marcy and her staff are so friendly and welcoming to their diners. And the food is exceptional (especially the Branzino!!). Love dining at Ziba's!

Delicious food. Rustic environment with exposed brick walls and art for sale. Great service with a rotating menu. We got the apple salad which was perfectly dressed and elevated with herbs and thinly sliced dates. Nice pescatarian options. Bow tie pasta with Salmon added was creamy and filling. We split the two meals between two people and it was a great amount for a lite dinner. Service was excellent and we can't wait to try some of their reserve wine next time!

My favorite place in Atlanta. Always get the tuna tacos and mussels. Amazing cocktails and impressive wine list. Also very homey, approachable and affordable. 10/10 every time we LOVE this place.

I came in a bit early which I know can be annoying since I use to work in the industry. The young lady with the blonde hair was very pleasant: I didn't want to be engaged and she could tell. I appreciated that because sometimes people don't want to be bothered. Order the fancy burger with onion, blue cheese, nice and medium. Which by the way did not come out medium. It was well done, but they were more than accommodating and made me a new burger. Will def be back to try more things. Also service was great !!!

This is the neighborhood joint so it is sad to say I'm not going back. Why? Food is fine but apparently COVID is known to management to be over. No staff wear masks and customers are encouraged to sit next to each other. Food is fine but not fine enough to risk my health. I wrote this in the restaurant and we discussed the lack of masks at my table. At the end, the waiter told us the meal had been comped. We asked why. The waiter waved around at the ceiling and told us the cameras had heard us. This is hands down the weirdest and creepiest thing that has ever happened to me in a restaurant. If management is spying on patrons, I am NEVER going back, COVID or no. UPDATE: Apparently, Ziba's describes their approach to COVID as "faith over fear." F that noise. More like "COVID superspreader + spying." If "the cameras" are listening to everything we say, how is that not fear?

Ziba's is one of the few local, neighborhood spots in Grant Park offering the food it does. I've been a few times and as others have mentioned these folks excel at the apps - the calamari, fries, and the mussels with sauce are quite good. I've yet to try brunch here but I've heard good things. The owners seem like good people and the restaurant frequently supports the neighborhood in different ways. I also like the calm, chill atmosphere here and if I drank wine would definitely go here for a night cap. Had lunch there recently and as others have mentioned the variety is somewhat limited and there aren't a lot of interesting and different types of dishes. Prices are a little high but not unfair. However, the food is usually pretty solid and my recent visit was no different. My friends enjoyed a few different fresh salads while I wished I got the bowl instead of the cup of the creamy, delicious tomato basil soup. The white bean burger I ordered was good and large but the taste was just ok. I liked the pesto and sun-dried tomato sauce but otherwise found it a bit boring. As a meat eater who tries to eat more vegetarian I feel like I would have enjoyed a meat burger from them more for about the same price.

Ziba is a Grant Park restaurant located in a old building in an old neighborhood. Street parking nearby. Dark interior with a cool vibe, old tables, old bar, exposed brick walls and small eating area. The day we went, no air conditioner, however plenty of fans. We went on a Sunday afternoon and they were serving brunch. The paper menu contained about 10 items to choose from. Mostly basic egg and pancake dishes. Basic brunch fare. I had a Mexican egg dish with beans and rice, my partner had chicken and biscuit. We decided a bloody mary sounded good too. The bloody mary was good but tasted like a mix, served with a salt and pepper rim. The Mexican egg dish was good, but nothing exciting. My partner liked his chicken and biscuits. $5 for bloody mary, about 10 each for entrees. Service was OK. Like what I have seen, we will probably return for dinner to give it another try.

This place is phenomenal! Service was immaculate, and this restaurant has a warm cozy vibe. We had a the turkey meatloaf ( incredible ) and the fancy burger ( honey mustard is so so good ) and the drinks were great! Got a pitcher of Bichon and left feeling great! See you again soon Ziba's!

Five stars. Food is delectable and the vibe is just right. If you blink driving down Boulevard, you'll miss it, so keep your eyes wide open. Ha. The mussels in white sauce was incredible paired with the fresh, hot-out-the-oven sourdough bread and French fries. My wife had the jambalaya and that didn't disappoint either. The dish bursted with mouthwatering flavor and New Orleans spices that leaves you wanting more. I wish I saved enough room for dessert, but not this time. But I'll be better prepared on my next visit and the visit after that, because I'm pretty sure this is my new spot. Again, 5 stars.

Nice, romantic little neighborhood spot. The service has always been excellent and the wine selection is pretty solid. I've not had many of the entrees but I did try some of the desserts which I found to be mediocre. Not enough to bring the score down, though. I will be going back.

I was excited because the reviews were great but I didn't quite understand the hype once I ate here. The service was good but the actual food was a disappointment. We ordered burrata for an appetizer and felt ripped off. Typically, restaurants either have one large piece of the cheese, or multiple smaller pieces. My boyfriend and I were planning on splitting it, but the cheese piece was so small that it wasn't even sufficient for one person. It was $11 for a small piece of cheese and that was disappointing. Ordered the jambalaya for entree. I've had Cajun food plenty of times and this was far from it. The rice was pretty bland and it felt like the seasonings were added on top of it instead of cooking with it. Chicken in it was extremely dry. We ordered dessert and the same cornbread I had earlier was used as the base for the tres leches. It was disappointing because the cornbread was dry by itself, so adding sweetness on top didn't really help. It was extremely overpriced for the quality of food.

We visited Ziba's Bistro on Thursday, June 7, 2018 at about 8:30PM for just two people. We did have a reservation. It took about 3 minutes for anyone to recognize that we had arrived; however, I noticed that the server (it appeared there was only one server) was also the hostess. I think it would be helpful to have at least one other employee doing server duties. We found the food at this restaurant to be good to very good. I had the calamari, which I found could have used a little bit more seasoning; however, the sweet chili sauce that came with it was quite good. The other person in my party had some mussels. I believe they were the coconut curry variety. They were absolutely amazing. It was about $16.00; however, the portion size was huge! Definitely a great value on the seafood scale. We shared a dessert, which I found to be quite tiny, comparatively to everything else we received. It was a creme brûlée. It was delicious; however, about three bites each and it was gone. I found out Thursday nights they have a "Holy Thursday" unlimited wine program, which seemed like an amazing value; however, we were just not feeling like more than one drink on that night. Our server was very pleasant; however, just seemed a little stretched thin due to all of her duties. I would most definitely return again, as there are some other things on the menu that I would certainly enjoy trying.

The best mussels in Atlanta are here. Plus, it's a locally owned restaurant with a European vibe that makes you feel you're not in Atlanta. An overall great neighborhood spot for drinks or food. Live music here is also awesome.

this is literally HOMEEEEE i love zibas w my whole heart i have never had a single bad bite and i've tried 80% of the menu, drinks are FIRE, service is IMPECCABLE if i could fuckin sleep at zibas i would YALL FUCKIN ROCKKKKK

First time here. Sat outside with my local friend's pup. Road noise is a thing but not an issue. Get the Mussels. Phenomenal!! I ordered the Turmeric on the suggestion of the waiter, Kabir, and they were spot on. Wrapped up with Tres Leches and Chocolate Mousse and both were amazing. We will be coming back to this gem of an establishment. The adult beverage is great. Specialty libations all looked enticing. What are you waiting for? Get over here.

My favorite restaurant in Grant Park. The mussels with the white wine sauce are super good; I would go here just for that. I had several of the other tapas, but they were not nearly as memorable. Cozy rustic ambience with very small tables. Prepare for street parking.

Wonderful "dive" near the zoo. OMG what a wonderful find. Alberta was the best server but the food stole the show. We argued over which was best: the jambalaya, the bow tie pasta, or the lasagne. Be sure to try the French 75. Highly recommend!

We had an engagement celebration here and it was phenomenal. The food was great, the atmosphere was inviting, and the staff was so kind. We definitely recommend this spot for a low key environment to enjoy with friends and family. They were so thrilled to host us they felt like part of the group. Thank you Ziba's!

Charming! One of my favorite restaurants in Grant Park. Cheerful staff full of suggestions.

Came for brunch. The stars are four the service. As a vegan, finding an accommodating brunch menu is tough. When I told the owner I was vegan, she pulled an the stops to make sure I had what I wanted and that I wasn't hungry when I left. My brunch companions loved their food (Omlete, salmon Flathead and turkey sausage croissant ). Parking is on the street and pretty easy. The sign for the place is a little hidden, so keep your eyes peeled for it. I will definitely be back. There are more vegan options available for their full menu. Awesome service!!

This place is awesome. Ambient lighting, exposed brick, southern charm right in Grant Park. You would miss this place of you weren't looking for it! Parking is on the street. This place was suggested by our inn keeper. Upon entering the establishment we were greeting by a nice lady who showed us to our table and turned out to also be our server. She brought us menus and explained all the specials. She was super nice and chatty which we enjoyed. We were in the side room which was lovely. It had an outline of the Mediterranean chipped out of the plaster showing the brick. It was pretty neat! It had a pretty cool full bar in the other room and they were playing great music. Think Nora Jones type music. Very appropriate for adding to the atmosphere. My husband and I ordered our drinks him a local beer and I a glass of Pino Grisio. We elected to each get a watermelon salad (a special and out of this world!) which had a slight kick to it. Then we shared a hummus platter (carrot sticks, celery, olives and fresh hot pots bread and smokey hummus) which was delicious. We also had one big chicken empanada with a green sauce which was amazing! I can't recommend this place more! If you are in the Charming area of Grant Park please stop in for a bite to eat. You won't regret it!
