I migliori ristoranti di cucina latino-americana a Evanston

As always the food was phenomenal …..well paced fronttevamyd bouche to the entree. Loved every bite !!!!

I came to Zentli when it first opened a couple of years ago, and while there were some growing pains, overall it was good. My experience this time was outstanding! The restaurant is beautiful with interesting artwork and comfortable seating. The server was kind, knowledgeable and did a great job of making sure we were enjoying the experience. Cocktails were delicious and the specials were all very tasty.

We went on Valentine's Day. Thought it was great. First time there, so relied somewhat on Open Table, website to assess. The website is beautiful. Very upscale. The actual restaurant is not that upscale. The over-all decor needs work. Very sparse. I'm sure they will improve with time. We were immediately greeted by Arturo, who was our gracious and enthusiastic server for the evening. He seemed to be involved in the evening to the extent we think he may have been the owner or manager. The cocktails seemed to be a focal point. One thing I actually liked was a much simplifoed wine list. Like there was 0ne Cabernet, one Chardonnay, one Pinot Noir. A total of approx. 6 - 8 options. All were $15 for a glass. My Cabernet was really good. So, the food was outstanding. We had the crab & avocado on tostones, and the camarones with tostones also. Then split the Pernil (pork shoulder). Everything was excellent. Looking forward to returning and trying the Jibarito, Bistec and Arroz con Pollo.

Amaru put together a restaurant week menu that was the culinary equivalent of a highlight reel. A bold and well-composed departure from the excellent regular menu, the $60, 3- course tasting menu exemplified the restaurant’s pan-Latin influence. As a four-person party we were able to taste every item from each of the three courses and every plate was a standout. All of the portions were nearly entre-sized and there was an exuberance in the flavors and textures that showcased the kitchen’s mastery. There wasn’t a single dish that I wouldn’t be delighted to see on the regular menu. As always the service was warm and attentive. Bravo.
