"Chicken Kebab Plate with Hummus A simple but tasty, working day dinner. Enjoy a non-so-artsy meal in a non-so famous Mediterranean restaurant in downtown Forest Park. A look at the spread speaks volume as healthy it is. Chickens, rice, grilled vegetables, hummus and olive oil. Could it be more balanced? Not only healthy, the chicken was very delicate and tasteful, the rice not sticky at all, the vegetables perfectly made, and the hummus so fresh and tangie. It could not be better in terms of nutrition. protein from chicken; carbs of rice and hummus; Fats from olive oil. The place A Go-to-Type Square if we don't feel like spending the big Bucks or fighting the hectic of the city, but would want our meals to be delicious and naturally healthy. Each article on his menu is great. Especially her shame. Have fun!!!"

"We went here for my friend's birthday and it was my first time coming to this place. When we were seated, our waiter came to ask us for any drinks to get us started and we told him we wanted to do wine tasting. He told us to hold on a second and walked off. He went to talk to a coworker and came back 5 minutes later. Then he took our wine choices. Proceeding the night, he wasn't too attentive of us and when he took our entree order, we had to repeat it three times because 2 of those times he was looking at other waiters and customers. So after the third time, he finally got our order right and went to put it in. Keep in mind it was only 2 of us and we ordered very simple entrees. When we were done he asked for any desserts and I told him we were celebrating a birthday and if the restaurant did anything for birthdays. He looked at my friend (birthday girl) and said no. That I had to buy a dessert and the restaurant doesn't offer it. I was honestly shocked on the way he said it and his only solution was for it to be bought. I've worked at restaurants before and instead of saying no, we usually just got a manager and the manager would decide to approve something or not. He didn't even offer to talk to a manager. So then I just asked for the check. Another server came by and asked if we were okay and I asked him about birthday desserts. This nice, young man said that the restaurant DID do birthday desserts and that he would work something out. He came back very quickly with a birthday dish and was very nice and attentive of us afterwards. Definitely made the night more better for us than our original waiter."

"I don't usually go to a tapas restaurant, but if I do, I'm never disappointed. Emilio is no exception. The variety of tapas on the menu was all well and well designed. I especially enjoyed the bloodworm and the grilled Calamari. But all the food was tasteful and filling, and I had tried an explosion to try out all the different tapas my party ordered. The tapas were served quickly, although the restaurant was packed when I left, and I appreciate this to the excellent, friendly service. Anna, our server, went beyond and beyond to make sure we all take care. All this came in a colourful, warm atmosphere that was unique in the restaurant. I would definitely recommend this place to others when it comes to tapas. Well done."

"It is clear that Chef Emilio has quality food as his top priority at his eponymous restaurant in Hillside. Add to that the charming Spanish decor and you are guaranteed to enjoy your dining experience here. Everything is homemade and does not disappoint. The hardest thing is deciding what to get from the tempting menu, but since it’s tapas style designed to be shared with your fellow guests, you can easily enjoy a bit of this and bit of that. Don’t miss the outstanding authentic flan!"
