Chicago TribuneJanuary 15, 2015As Chicago's temperatures drop, a hot sandwich from this Cuban restaurant will be much more appealing. Go for their very authentic and mouthwatering Cuban Sandwich. Read more
Papi AntoniadisJune 27, 2013Being a regular since they were on Milwaukee Ave, here are some of my favorites: ox tail (entrées part), zacappa xo (plus all other rums, of course - this is the only bar rum I know of, in Chicago)
BetsyMSeptember 28, 2013Get your night started with one of their special not-on-the-menu margs, which has a shot of coconut rum. As our host explained, "It will get you where you need to be."
Katie HudecekJanuary 6, 2016Everything we had was great! The oxtails were awesome, the goat was tender and tasty. Red snapper was crispy but tender.
Bobby KennedyApril 24, 2016The old Cuban cocktail is lovely, and the Flavors of Cuba appetizer gives you a nice sampler of what's on the menu.
Angie OsmanskiAugust 13, 2015Try the oxtail, you won't e sorry! Super delicious!! They cool twit plantains just right too!
Time Out ChicagoAugust 2, 2014The sign on the whitewashed brick outside calls Paladar a rum bar, and you’d do well to start your meal with a mojito. Read more- Helena SmithSeptember 22, 2017Great mojitos and the food is amazing. The chicken salad with avocado is delicious.
Tasting TableJune 11, 2012Request an extra side of garlic sauce, a chunky mojo de ajo that accompanies tostones (fried plantains) and is a dream condiment for allium devotees: Read more
Dana TedescoNovember 29, 2012Helllllo!!!?? Shrimp stuffed w/ cheese and wrapped w/ ham AND bacon. Top w/ the spicy avocado or habanero sauce!
RellyRellJanuary 9, 2016Tried the grilled chicken dinner and ropa vieja it was so delicious! Waiter was a sweetheart too.

Ben PavlovicFebruary 27, 2013Our server was a sweetheart and our steaks were delish. Look forward to coming back soon!
- Tasting TableJune 28, 2012Try our favorite-- the ropa vieja and the Fidel sandwich, a saucy mound of barbecued pork: Read more
- Time Out ChicagoMay 1, 2012This location of El Cid has morphed into a Cuban restaurant with a penchant for rum.
John ArmstrongFebruary 23, 2013The Congri rice is not as good as the menu suggests, but the empanada guava with cheese is the money shot.
