Tapas 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. The atmosphere is colorful with walls of painted tile murals, marble bar, lots of wood and authentic pictures and photos. Another huge point for us is the restaurant is very clean. We have been drive out there to meet family and for some of there live shows. Our favorite is the grilled baby octopus, paella, herbed goat cheese, always at least one of the specials and of course ?their? Flan! Flan! Flan! La Tasca just makes for a great gathering place. After eleven years they are defiantly doing it right.
Pros: Food, ambience, live music, free vallet
Cons: It is not in Chicago
