**Aba: A Culinary Gem in Fulton Market** Nestled in the vibrant Fulton Market area, Aba offers a charming atmosphere with stunning views, making it an ideal spot for both romantic evenings and casual gatherings. While many diners rave about the delectable dishes—especially the short rib hummus and pistachio cake—others found some offerings less impressive, like the lamb chops. The service is generally welcoming and attentive, with a comfortable noise level even during busy times. Despite mixed reviews on certain meals, Aba's beautiful design, outdoor seating, and lively ambiance ensure a memorable dining experience worthy of a visit. Reservations are recommended, particularly for larger groups.
Modern setting, flavors that pop, professional service: one of the most happening places happening right now in Chicago.
I went here for my birthday dinner and had an amazing experience! Staff was friendly, nice ambiance and food was tooooo good. One of my new favorite spots in the west loop.
As anticipated, Aba was stunning, featuring an indoor-outdoor layout that's ideal for summer dining. We enjoyed the Smoky Garlic Hummus, Whipped Feta, Green Falafel, and Brussels Sprouts for our meal, all of which were delicious and great for sharing. For drinks, we ordered the One for the Road mocktail. Our waitress was fantastic and apologetic, but the overall service was quite slow. We were still without a table 15 minutes after our reservation time, and the hostess couldn't provide any estimate on when one would be available. Eventually, we ended up on a couch, which was fine, but it left us wondering about the purpose of making a reservation in the first place. Overall, the ambiance was incredible and the food was tasty, but the service left something to be desired.
I was introduced to Aba through Chicago Restaurant Week 2026. The service was very warm and engaging. I enjoyed everything I ordered and the setting was beautiful. We sat on the heated, covered balcony. This was absolutely beautiful with the snowy backdrop. I can't wait to be back! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
