    Ask for regular Hennessy they didn’t have it and the waiter said we have XO Hennessy and I said ok that’s fine. And bill comes out and it’s $150 for 2 drinks!! He should’ve told me it was an expensive drink. I did not know that! And then they seated us outside. It was so cold and the two heaters weren’t working. And then once they did half way through dinner it was so cold and they couldn’t move us inside because they were booked. We froze the whole time having dinner. Our feet were frozen. Waited was great and amazing but if I don’t know what XO is then you should inform me! I paid $180 w tip for 2 drinks!

    Food is good but every time we’ve been to Aba, service has been slow. We weren’t tended to for awhile and grabbed another attendant for help. And it wasn’t even crowded …

    Aba is and always will be one of the best restaurants in America. They do everything perfectly, and the food is of the most elite tier. I would tell anyone and everyone to go here. Looking forward to my next time there.

    Wonderful experience for those who love to share their food. They have many hummus dishes to share among the table. The lamb and beef kebabs were delicious!

    Went for Chicago Restaurant Week Menu & added a Short Rib Hummus - it was SO good! The rest of the restaurant week menu was also very tasty. The pita kind of stole the show - but anything we dipped it in was fabulous! Great experience too!
