Reviews for Aba in Chicago, IL
I loved the atmosphere of this place. Each dish I tried was good. I had the lamb hummus, green falafel, and short ribs. All had... a lovely unique taste. The customer service at the front was lacking just a little. One actually hung up when i called to ask aquestion and didn't confirm if i needed anything else. I understand they were busy, but they weren't really attentive.Thankfully my waiter waiter and the surrounding waiters were awesome even if they weren't serving my table. I would definitelylove to come back and sit in there rooftop terrace area. Read more
Went to Aba for happy hour on Sunday afternoon and the place was packed. Enjoyed my $7 wine (smooth with deep note). We also... shared a plate of grilled cauliflower which was delicious and beautifully charred. Would definitely come back here for a properdinner. Drinks and cocktails are not quite the highlights of our experience. Regardless the place is absolutely adorable and Ilove their lounge area! Read more
This place is beautiful!!! We really wanted to be seated on the patio area but found sitting inside very pleasant with various... lighting and decor. Not to mention the food! The dishes were all shareable and delicious along with outstanding bread!! Itwas suggested that each person order a couple of dishes to share which was provided each of us more than enough to eat. Dinehere and just enjoy the experience. Simply marvelous!!! Read more
I enjoyed a very nice meal at the bar here. The ambiance is very chill. I would love to come back for dinner out on the... rooftop/patio. We ordered the shortrib hummus, whipped feta, braised shortribs, crispy potatoes and frozen Greek yogurt.Everything was very good- well seasoned, great flavor and cooked appropriately. The service was wonderful and despite beingbusy, walking into the bar was not difficult and we did not have a long wait for anything. Read more
Phenomenal restaurant!! We got six different dishes and all were amazing. Top 2 dishes were the Chicken Kefta and the pistachio... orange cake. Absolutely amazing. I highly recommend giving this place a try, but make sure you get a reservation. Read more
The short rib hummus is impressive! Those breads are really soft they are perfect with those hummus. The grilled chicken is a... little dry, eggplant spread doesn’t really taste like eggplants. But it is such a cute restaurant, those plants, lights anddecoration are great for a Saturday girls brunch Read more
The restaurant is so cute and even when it's busy it's not too loud which is really nice. We have to make reservations a while... in advance for a large party but it seems like you can usually get a spot inside for a party of 2 without a reservation. Theservice was really good although it took them a while to seat us even with a reservation! The food was delicious!! We shared theeggplant spread (ask for more pita, it's delicious!) and I got the Kefta and eggs. It was really heavy and can definitely besplit between two people. The pistachio cake was also amazing!

As a Real Estate Broker, I pride myself in knowing what my community has to offer. Aba is a wonderful dining experience! The... small plates are packed with decadent texture and flavor. The ambiance feels luxurious. We reserved an indoor table but theglorious fall evening begged for roof-top seating, which the staff were willing to accommodate. We had a wonderful evening without-of-town friends feasting, drinking and laughing. Thank you Aba for helping us show them a great time! Read more
