Was Jessica Betschart at Carnivale a mag?
I brought my boyfriend here for his birthday, and he loved it! The food was full of flavor, the presentation was impressive, and it was a wonderful experience overall. I highly recommend the arrachera plate and the rompope tres leches for dessert! View all feedback.
What Bobb Kennedy dislikes about Carnivale:
Aside from the wobbly table we were seated at, everything else was excellent. Our waiter was very attentive and took the time to explain the menu to us since it was our first visit. Unfortunately, we came during Valentine’s Day weekend, so they were only offering a pre-fixed menu. However, we enjoyed our meal just as much and plan to return to try other items on the menu. The entertainment was decent, nothing particu... View all feedback.
Always festive atmosphere. Taking pictures inside the restaurant is fun. Food tasted great. Great ladies night or dinner out on a date.
Food is a bit overpriced, we didn’t expect over 100$ per person. Entertainment was a fun destruction. Few years back we hosted a party in a private room and I can not say enough good things about it.
My wife and I aren 't into Latin American cuisine but friends persuaded us to have dinner at Carnivale because it is a wow your senses type of restaurant with a lively atmosphere, colorful decor, original artwork, festive vibe, food from Spain, Mexico, South America, Central America and the Caribbean and one-of-kind desserts. How about cotton candy and caramel popcorn? It reminded me of carnivals in the 1950s with Ferris wheels and bingo games, a throwback to the good ole days and a great way to end a wonderful dining experience. Located at 702 West Fulton Market Street, in Chicago 's West Loop neighborhood, Carnivale opened in 2005 with a fresh approach to dining out, a Latin fusion cuisine that promised something new and different but altogether satisfying. Open from 1 to 8:30 on Sunday, 5 to 9 on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, 5 to 9:30 on Friday and 4 to 9:30 on Saturday, it offers everything from quesadillas and empanadas to several versions of traditional paella. We started with beef empanada, shrimp quesadillas with wild-caught shrimp, Qaxaca cheese, greens and Chipotle aioli and Caesar salad with Romaine lettuce, sourdough croutons, home-made Caesar dressing and parmesan cheese with salmon. For her entree, my wife chose lamb shank with Spanish style fava bean stew, Piquillo pepper, spicy peas and pickled onion with mashed potatoes. I thoroughly enjoyed an order of Ox Tail paella with braised Ox Tail in Spanish sherry, baby carrots, parsnips, sweet potatoes, spinach, roasted mushrooms, pepper, bone marrow and bomba rice. The cotton candy and caramel popcorn dessert made a couple of 80-year-olds feel like teenagers all over again.
The service was outstanding! The food was top-notch! The ambiance was fantastic! This is definitely one of the best places I've ever dined at.
This restaurant is fantastic overall, but unfortunately, one negative experience can sometimes overshadow everything and affect your overall impression of what could have been a wonderful meal.
