• Tapas / Small Plates • Naperville

Booked 65 times today

Located just west of downtown Naperville, Mesón Sabika has been serving the community since 1990. Built in 1847, the pristine four-acre estate and beautiful mansion welcome you before you reach the driveway. Whether you dine in one of the mansion’s eight dining rooms decorated in traditional Spanish décor, attend a wedding or corporate event in the pavilion, or sit out back on the patio, the cuisine of Spain and delicious drinks make for an unparalleled dining experience. For a quiet, romantic dining experience we recommend a week night reservation. The small mansion rooms fill up on the weekends, making for a more lively dining experience. Our dress code is "proper casual/casual dressy." Gentlemen, we respectfully ask that you cover up your arms (no tank tops). And ladies, we ask that the majority of your midriff is covered (no bandeaux’s). We ask that everyone remove their baseball hats when dining inside the mansion. Thank you!

This is by far our absolute favorite restaurant (even over anything downtown)! Food is outstanding- the mussels are to die for! The bread they serve with the mussels soaked in the sauce is the single best bite of food I’ve ever had and I’m a major foodie who worked in the industry for many many years. We’ve have the same server the past few times we have dined there. Seba not only remembers us but greeted me with a giant hug this past time and was genuinely happy to see and serve us even though we were the last table of the night. Will be back time and time again ❣️
