mfk. Restaurant - Spanish restaurant in Chicago - 432 W Diversey Pkwy, USA

We tried almost everything on the menu and nothing disappointed. The only word that fits is spectacular. All of our food was cooked to perfection and our bartender Archie was super pleasant and knowledgeable!

An awesome experience! We especially love the quails—tender meat with its natural flavor compounded with crispy, salty skin + just the right amount of sourness from the vinegar.

Very cute and cozy inside. The pork belly dish was absolutely fabulous 😋 and the cake they offer for dessert was sooo delicious. The staff was also super kind!

There are not enough stars to express how wonderful our dining experience was at this amazing restaurant. Our server, Mick, was so knowledgeable, and friendly. She added a personal touch that I haven't found at any other establishment and it made the amazing experience that much better. She recommended the perfect wine, and I'll be searching for it wherever I can. Mick and the kitchen staff were very accommodating to my cilantro allergy, and it's absence in the dish did nothing to detract from the glorious & enticing flavors. The portions are perfect- you will leave perfectly full, and not get hungry the rest of the night. The flavors, the textures, they were all so incredible. Everything you eat will have you saying "oooh," and "ahhh," all night. Every bite was delectable, and warranted many "OMG's!" This experience wasn't just impressive, it was downright delightful. This is a foodie & gourmet paradise. Quiet, intimate, and upscale. Perfect for a relaxing night out. You will love everything you try here, from cocktails & starters, to Entrées and dessert. I highly recommend the Suzuki crudo, the Spanish tortilla, the fideo, and their cauliflower dish. I'd be first in line if they bottled & sold their sauces! Do yourself a favor and get a reservation ASAP.

This place was amazing! First and foremost, would love to mention the really low key vibe this place has. Tucked below the sidewalk, the dining room is extremely intimate, and paired with bright walls and paintings, you feel as though you're transported to the coast of Spain. The menu is a traditional tapas menu, so you'll want to choose a few plates to share. For a table of two, we did one plate from the first course, three from the second, and one from the main course. The food was great and everything we were hoping it would be. End your dinner with the butter cake. I definitely recommend it.

We were transported by the powder pastels & seafoam of this casual & intimate restaurant, its excellent cooking & beverages! So many hits on the menu! Our server Archie took good care of us. 👍 Tepache: fermented pineapple drink — balanced and refreshing! 👍 Spanish tortilla: fluffy steamed savory egg custard baked w/ salt cod brandade, on a bed of fennel & pickled shallots (had this twice, highly recommended) 👍 Almond stuffed eggplant: tasty & texturally inspiring. black sesame tahini, chèvre, breadcrumb 👍 Fideos: noodles, mussels, succulent shrimp & ham cooked in tomato cream. Sauce was good to the last drop!

Great seafood oriented tapas style dining. The best basque cake ever and kick butt anchovy and boquerones dishes. The roasted mushrooms and the little gem salad courses were excellent. Liked several of the new dishes.

Dinner was absolutely amazing. They have an incredible bar program. The tropical selection of cocktails are all extremely well done. i especially liked the jungle bird. I brought my future in laws here for an intimate discussion. We were treated with basically white glove service. The prawn head special was interesting. i loved the spanish tortilla and the scallops. Our server was extremely knowledgeable about the menu and the cooking process. The music in this place is also phenomenal! Highly recommend. I will be back!
