"We were in Chicago for a weekend, and went to Adobo right before a show at Second City (it's next door). The service was phenomenal and the food was delicious. We will definitely go back next time were in town."

"The table-side guacamole preparation is a fun feature worth ordering, and the food overall is very good. However, we were disappointed when the service became extremely slow. It took 30 minutes for us to order entrees, and another 30 to receive them. That said, I would try Adobo again."

"The Adobo Margarita is phenom. It's more of a martini-style (shaken) margarita. Very good! Tableside guac was great as well. We had little plates and they were great as well. Great atmosphere but not too loud."

"Great Mexican food and amazing margaritas. The menu isn't super extensive, but there isn't a bad thing on the menu. Portions are filling, but not over stuffing like some Mexican Restaurants. Great spot for dinner before a Second City show right next door. Definitely recommend it. And I'll be back."

My pork chop was extremely spicy and the sweet potatoes were cold.
Out waiter never returned to see how we were doing.

"Found this place through groupon.The interior is spacious and beautifully decorated. We ordered Plato Vegetariano- comparatively better than Veggie Enchiladas which was sweet for our palate. We also ordered the drinks but felt that it was very pricey for the quatity. We would have ordered their speciality guac/chips if we had a big group to share else it can be very filling to enjoy the main course. Instead we ordered the dessert -Pastel de Piña which was not a good idea. It did not seem fresh at all. We have been to lot of mexican places but did not find anything worth going back for at Adobo. The service is ok, food quantity is good but flavors are not so great for the price you pay."

But the chili relleno still had solid cheese in the middle, not cooked throughout.
I think they were too busy Saturday night to cook the food properly.

"Adobo Grill was good, but not as good as previous visits. We were here for their monthly tequila dinner. The food was good, but the service was unusually slow. It took about a half hour to get our first drink, and we did not leave until after 10 pm. We were there for a little over three hours, which is too long for any dinner. Hopefully the service improves next time."

"Overall, I enjoyed my experience at Adobo Grill. The atmosphere was nice as you could hear music, but it wasn't so loud that you couldn't have a conversation. The guacamole was good and so were the entrees we had. I was a little disappointed with the dessert (my mom's pineapple upside down cake is better)."

"Had a great time, though was a little disappointed that the Guacamole was not made fresh in front of my date and I . I was told by a friend its really cool when they do it but because I had gone on a Sunday evening they said they couldn't do it. Other then that the service was good. The cost was a little on the high side, but I would consider going back."

"The Guacamole at Adoba is excellent and made to order. The drink list is equally as good with plenty or tequilas, margaritas and mixed drinks. The entres are generally good and well portioned."

"Our food and drinks came out in a timely fashion. Two members of our party ordered the vegetarian platter, the squash and the pepper items were delicious, while the two "cake-like items" were not so good. The table-made guacamole was perfect! Our drinks were tasty and our waitress had a good knowledge of the tequila when we inquired for after dinner drinks."

"Went a few weeks ago for the first time in years. LOVED the pork tenderloin with mole. Great guacamole. Margarita was tasty but a bit light on the tequila. Would go again just for the pork but I think I would try a different drink, maybe sangria."

"First time at this location...we used to go to the one at Division and Damen but that location closed. We took a friend who is visiting from Australia and had a really wonderful evening. Food was great and the service was fantastic. As always, their guacamole and margaritas are amazing. We will definitely go back."

"Went with family for a low key birthday celebration and had a great time .We took our 3 year old grandson and they were very accommodating to kids. The guacamole made fresh at table side was delicious and the Margarita's were excellent. Highly recommended!"

"My friend and I came here on a Saturday evening during Restaurant Week, just 5 days before Valentine's Day. We were lucky to be able to make a 6p reservation just hours before. Valet parking was great. We were showed to our seats almost immediately. Our waiter was prompt and personable. He handed us the regular and beverage menus. We found it necessary, however, to ask for (rather than be handed) the Restaurant Week menu. The margaritas and chips & salsa were delicious. We gave our order and the food (chile relleno and grilled salmon) arrived as we were finishing our apetizers, both of which were tasty. The desserts were very good. The chocolate tamal could only be described as decadent. Overall an great experience."
