We've been any times since it's a great restaurant to go to before the Auditorium Theater. The tapas menu is interesting and varied. The service is first-rate.

We ordered several dishes for sharing, the menu offers a wide array of tapas, each one deliciously curated capturing the essence of Spanish cuisine from Serrano ham croquettes, marinated olives, bacon-covered dates, hanger steak, pulpo to Brussels sprouts, we were able to sample a little bit of everything. The ambience is chic yet very comfortable. The staff is friendly and made the perfect suggestions for our group. I highly recommend it.

Mercat is a solid Spanish tapas option near Auditorium Theater and recommend as an option if you have an event (theater, museum, etc.) in the area. Three out of four of us split the prix fix menu (highly recommend) and two of us had the wine pairing. Our meal started charcuterie (Iberian ham, Manchego cheese, red grapes and a Spanish bruschetta) and moved on to bacon-wrapped dates / almonds, lamb chops, serrano ham croquettes, patatas bravas and grilled octopus. Our fourth (read: picky eater) ordered the Basque chicken and Gigantes (bean salad), which she thoroughly enjoyed. The prix fix menu included a carmel creme brulee and the burnt cheesecake - which were enjoyed by everyone at the table. Service was fast, professional and unobtrusive. The prices were reasonable and what you should expect in Chicago for a similar meal (about $100 per person). The only nit pick I have (relatively small) is that the cocktail I ordered (Old Fashioned) was weak - which makes me think I should have ordered one of Mercat's menu cocktails.

Thanks for the feedback, Roland! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed our tapas, wine pairing, and especially the prix fix menu. We strive to offer a variety of tasty options to suit all tastes and preferences, and it's great to know we hit the mark with you. We appreciate your constructive feedback about our burnt cheesecake and will take it into consideration. We're glad you found our service professional and fast, and we hope to see you again soon for another round of tapas and cocktails at Mercat a la Planxa. Thank you, David

The food is very good, almost authentic. Portion size is reasonable. Great place to go for something different. If the weather is not bad, great place to go before any concert at the CSO.
