$5 a glass for the delicious house sangria: a great start to your evening here! The specialty sangrias are about 50 cents more, and include Champagne, White Peach, Raspberry and Mango. This is key information to have as we head into the Chicago summer--you're going to crave these refreshing drinks soon. The tapas are pretty standard--you can get similar items anywhere--but I particularly like the ceviche when its on the menu. The paella, starting at $9/serving seems expensive. The small hot and cold tapas plates are not bad, ranging in price from $4-15. Go late, eat light, and then dance all night to reggae, salsa, Colombian and other music.

Sangria is a tapas restaurant, a bar and a club. We had to wait for an hour for our table, despite having a reservation. This was made much less painful by the bar area, which is large. They also comped our drinks once we sat down. The food is pretty good, but not as good as at some other tapas restaurants in Chicago. Sangria is definitely more of a scene, around 11:30 they started playing music and opened up the dance floor.
