Cafe Ba-Ba-Reeba! Chicago Reviews from The Last Year
Came here for dinner.
We shared many things. We had the potato tortilla which was good. We also had patatas bravas which honestly could have been more crispy and hot. The chicken empanada was very good and so were the ham croquettes. We also ordered the hangar steak and we were surprised at how small the portion size was. The restaurant is bigger than I expected but very busy. Our service was excellent.
I was here this past weekend with my fiancé as we wanted
I was here this past weekend with my fiancé as we wanted to try it since he heard such good things about it from a coworker. We ordered an assortment of dishes (as you're meant to do since it is tapas) and unfortunately nothing stood out. I love trying out restaurants I've never been to before and I have zero issue going to places and having a pricey meal as I know that there are a lot of costs within restaurants-- I've been working in them for years. But you feel a lot less inclined to return to a place that resulted in a high bill when the food leaves you unsatisfied. Everything in general lacked salt and nothing that was supposed to be crispy was crispy-- patatas bravas and the peri peri chicken were both kind of soggy even though we got them right as they were ready because they were hot. The chicken was also way too acidic; it would be okay if the shredded vegetables next to it were maybe tossed with the yogurt mix rather than the chicken just sitting on top of all the yogurt, that way they can all be eaten together easily. We also got the fried shishito peppers, which were very good but confused at the naming because they were clearly charred on a grill or in the oven to get blistered so the naming of things on the menu is confusing as well. The beef tenderloin was good but honestly it wasn't amazing and worth coming back for. Overall, the staff were fantastic, attentive, and sweet, the thing that fell short was the food which was disappointing because that's what you go to a restaurant for.

I can't even give enough accolades to Santiago and the whole team at Baba! Everything was delicious and the service was perfect! We were so happy and we had a best night ever! I can only thank you one million times! Please, take the time to experience Cafe Baba Reba..... the happy hour is amazing, too!

I have two absolute favorite tapas places is this is one of them. The food never disappoints, the staff is always accommodating and vibe is impecable. Also awesome to be able to get Lettuce Entertain you perks while dining.
Needed to post this more as a PSA than anything else.
Do not dine here. Two shocking things happened when I had a birthday meal with a friend last week. First, they accidentally delivered two deviled eggs when I only ordered one. Not a big deal - looked to flag down my waiter to let them know but before I could do that, the guy came back and grabbed the wrong order off the table saying he made a mistake and promptly delivered the dish =directly to another table=. That dish was as at my table for a nontrivial amount of time and I'm pretty sure you shouldn't serve it to another table at that point. Eww. The second shocking thing was around the Striped Bass. Each dish has a picture online so you can see what you're ordering. The dish showed up at the table matching the photo beautifully except for one interesting detail. It wasn't striped bass. It was a cheaper smaller fish. When I flagged the waiter on the mistake he immediately whisked the fish away and returned the dish with the actual Bass. And then tried to say it was a mix-up with another dish on the menu except no other dish looks like that one and the original fish served =wasn't even on the menu=. Seriously wtf. So between the obvious health code violation and the bait-and-switch that was attempted on one of the dishes, I think it's fair to say that this place really should be avoided.
Wow, what a find! The prices are unbeatable.
We tried the tomato goat cheese dip (out of this world), chicken skewers (pretty standard fare), and the patatas bravas (fantastic). We also shared a pitcher of guava sangria, a special for the month, which was infused with tequila - absolutely refreshing. Just two cups in, and I was already feeling the buzz.
Delicious! It's a great ambiance and I love the energy here.
I would recommend the paella.
We had been here years ago for a wedding rehearsal dinner.
I decided to take my husband back and it did not disappoint. We went for happy hour and were lucky enough to get a table at 5pm. We had a reservation and the hostess let us know if we found a spot and were happy with having dinner there that was fine and would change our reservation. We forgot to tell her and she found us and asked if we were all good before changing the reservation which was great. The servers were all kind in serving us and trying to find us a spot to sit. The food was so good! We did the happy hour tapas and ordered 2 of most everything on the menu. Our favorites were the roasted peppers and the Crystal bread. It was decorated perfectly inside. With murals on the walls and intimate lighting. Would recommend.
Amazing, outstanding food!! Must try the potatoes bravas
Amazing, outstanding food!! Must try the potatoes bravas and goat cheese and tomato bisque!! The service was wonderful and the ambiance was really lovely.

Our family came her to celebrate my birthday, only 2 of the 5 of us, had been here before. We had a reservation for 9 pm, got there early, and found seats at the bar. The bartender was very kind and gave us each a taste of the sangria special flavor, which was pineapple. 2 of us ordered the sangria flight, which included 4 types of sangria. 2 of us ordered a Spanish wine flight, 3 glasses of red wine (or white). There was also an old fashioned, which was strong and very good. We were sat at a large table. It was my first time trying tapas, which are small plates of various foods. We tried a bunch of items, including -Chorizo wrapped dates -Baked goat cheese in tomato sauce, plus extra garlic bread -Bikini sandwiches -Chicken empanadas -Beef empanadas -Hanger steak -Scallop special -Iberica Presa special -Large mixture paella (5 large portions) -Chocolate truffle dessert All of the items we tried were delicious, I can't decide which was my favorite, but many thought the date wrapped in Chorizo( you can eat just 1 and be satisfied) was their favorite, another favorite was the Scallop special and the bikini sandwich. The Hanger steak and Iberico pork were cooked perfectly. The empanadas were delicious and fresh. The goat cheese in tomato sauce w/ garlic bread was delicious. We also ordered the large mixed paella, with Chorizo and chicken. It was delicious and plentiful, it was served from the pan tableside. For dessert, we had 2 chocolate truffle "cakes" and our server, Vincente, brought a flan for my birthday. Vincente was very nice and attentive. I would definitely come back again when I'm in town!

Transferring reservations is not supported in AT. Why not just use the name in the AT screenshot?

Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.

Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it? |
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid? |
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted. |
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from? |
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered? |
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
Restaurant Bought/Canceled Their Own Reservation
I accepted a bid for a popular restaurant in Los Angeles only to receive a phone call shortly thereafter informing me that the reservation had been canceled due to it being listed on AT. I of course need to subsequently cancel the reservation on AT but get this warning that my status will be negatively affected for doing so. I've reached out to customer support about this several times with no response, not sure what to do in this station. Hoping someone can advise.

Give the best answerQuestion about postpaid listings for prepaid bookings
I have a prepaid reservation, but I'm allowed to transfer that reservation to others for a price that I set (up to the total price I paid).
For selling POSTPAID reservations, do I charge the buyer the full amount of the reservation when transferring? And then the buyer pays something on top of that (which is what is listed in the AppointmentTrader listing?)
Major Issue for Seller
My money is being held hostage! Can you please remove my refund medal as I am below the 11% threshold and should be able to withdraw my full daily amount now? I have been teying for a long time to get a reply on this. Major issue for people looking to do good/right like you ask and make positive sales. Being able to access earned revenue is critical and not getting any reply is very concerning for your sellers. Lot of other people having the same issue. Once below the threshold you should auto remove the warning medals.

Give the best answerWell through rate holding money for 180 days
Just wanted to put this out there as I find it quite weird. AT will hold money if your sell through rate is to low. I find this strange as you would think that sell through rate should reflect more on AT not marketing their site well enough to generate sales. It seems weird to punish sellers for listings not selling.

I am having a tough time contacting and elucidating a response from AT Support. I had a listing at 6pm, which was a mistake as the actual listing reservation was at 11pm. This got somehow approved by AT, and a customer bought this from me for 6pm. I want to cancel this listing and refund customer , but there is no way of doing this ! This is so frustrating and making me lose hope on AT. Can someone help me please?

Banned from Resy for selling reservations- Do we have a rat on our hands???
I am new to this app and started off by selling a polo bar reservation and then quickly sold one more reservation. Not long after I received emails from Resy saying all my reservations are cancelled and I am being banned from Resy for life. How could this have possibly happened without a rat telling Resy that I sold the reservation. I need some advice on this situation and let’s catch the rat!

I have a big ongoing and it also shows someone is working on my bid. Today I see there is a " Buy Instantly " option at my portfolio showing same price I've bid for a reservation. I'm a bit confused, since my money has already been deducted from my credit card for the bid, do I need to pay one more time for the Buy Instantly? If I choose Buy Instantly, can I cancel my bid ( while someone is working on it )? Thanks!

You can only deposit $50 at a time until you earn the “Sales and Low Refund Medal” I believe. Im new to this as well but the ability to deposit more money at once and increase your amount of listings comes with that medal.
