on Citysearch Apr 05, 2009La Tasca has been the best Spanish/mediteran restaurant the burbs has had to offer in in the last 12 years. The food, people, drinks, atmospher, will surpass most Tapas restaurants in Chicago and many in Spain. We... (more)

on Citysearch May 02, 2007Tapas in Arlington Heights, I must say, surpass the many tapas we have sampled throughout the U.S. Even some of the tapa bars in Spain. The staff is professional but, give you a feel that you have known them for years.... (more)

on Citysearch Sep 21, 2005If I could live here, I would! The menu is in constant flux, so what you get today, you may not get next week, or even the next night. And that is a good thing! There is the usual standard offering of Paella on the menu, but it... (more)
