Reviews for Alhambra Palace Restaurant in Chicago, IL
Group of 12 pax. Food and ambiance good. Ths service was not good at all. Our Servers tip auto added to bill. Perhaps having the... tip guaranteed takes away a sense of responsibility and respect to the patrons and the server does not need to do a good job!spending over $1300 at this establishment for low quality service. Not good and not recommended. Read more
The food was good, entertainment great, dancing was fun. Overall a great fun atmosphere. The restaurant itself is... beautiful, though the way the tables are set up with the table numbers on them ruins the effect a bit and feels more likecafeteria seating. The MC was way too loud in his microphone and it kept cutting out which was annoying. The alcoholic drinksare beyond overpriced for what you get, and weren't very good. Read more

The presentation of the food was great but the quantity of the food was very limited in regards of the $$$ amount. The ambiance... was very good so was the weekend activities. Full music jam, belly dancing, birthday fun. It’s an amazing 0place to hang outwith your friends. The cheese platter with olives is one of there finest appetizers. Highly recommended Read more
Fun place to come for food, salsa dancing and drinks. Went here for a salsa dancing class on Thursday and overall it was a fun... event. I specially love the architecture of this place, very unique in Chicago. Their salsa dancing class is informative andeasy to follow, plus theres a right amount of men to women ratio, everyone was helpful and friendly. The manager Luciano wasvery nice and attentive. He made sure our group was having a good time and offered to let me leave my car over night because wedid have a good amount of drinks. Will comeback again with friends! Read more
What an extraordinary place. The architecture is truly stunning, lots of detail and replacas some of the original internal... design of the actual Alhambra Palace in Spain, specifically the woodwork and tiling. We were seated promptly by our server whowas very friendly and helpful in our food selection. We ordered the babaganoush which was delicious - the moroccan chicken wasserved to us piping hot, almost like it was microwaved, as not all alreas of the dish were the same in temperature,.however, thechicken was tender but needed more of that moroccan seasoning and some sauce. The chicken kebab plate was mostly full with riceand one schewer of chicken. The rice was delicious and so the chicken,.but needed more chicken and perhaps for the price, addeda bit more salad or a soup? We did also order a fatoush salad, but they forgot to bring it out with the rest of the meal, so wecanceled it. The entertainment was so great! We loved the belly dancers! They even came out and danced with the audience, thehost was hilarious and full of energy!! The DJ played diverse songs which was nice to experience and dance to the differentcultures of music. Overall the experience was fun! I would have given a 5 star If it wasn't for the food... it wasn't horribleby all means, but for the 160$ we paid, it should be better quality. We will be back next time in Chicago and will recommend toour friends. Read more
The food is just okay. As are the drinks. But the atmosphere is amazing. You’re really coming for the mood. The falafel was... decent. Nice outside fry with a moist center. The lamb meatballs had a strangely spongy-moist center. The chicken tangine hadgood flavor but the couscous was unnecessary — or it could have at least been served on the side. Everything was extremelyoverpriced though. But again, good first experience because of the awesome atmosphere. Read more
Super delicious food! We came here to celebrate a birthday. They gave the best birthday dessert. The music could be a little... louder it was a bit too low. Great service! Read more
