For starters, parking is a breeze, and it's along the Peterson and Kimball bus routes. I've passed by this place frequently and finally got the chance to try it while a friend and I were looking for a place to eat..

The owner was super-friendly and the place inside reminded me of many restaurants I ate in while living in Italy and visting Spain.

My friend ordered the squid, which was amazingly good. She even stated it was cleaned very well and was so fresh she could "taste the ocean."

I had a special that day of rice, beef, onions and tomatos cooked in white wine, which was delicious!!!

My next choice was "Escalopes De Cerdo," sauteed pork severed in a sherry sauce. Incredible!!!!!

I also noticed two tables surrounded us with clientel speaking in Castilian Spanish, which is a big plus for this place

Thank you Cafa Marbella for coming to this part of the city and alson that you are a BYOB restaurant!! I love the Paellas and the zortziko de mariscos! A must have at Cafa Marbella! Looking forward to seeing you guys soon.

I was so happy to find a BYOB tapas thro citysearch here in Chicago! Wish I had seen the coupon tho.... Ahhh!!! Authentic tapas from Spain does not get much better than Cafe Marbella.
