Suenos x Soho House

First off, the vibes here are immaculate. The restaurant is located on the second floor of Soho House, and the ambiance is very intimate--perfect for a smaller party. The menu is pretty straightforward. There aren't a lot of options to choose from, but each item is very unique. What we ordered: Caliente en los Trópicos: pretty yummy! Supposed to be spicy, but the spice is not overbearing at all. An interesting cocktail. Ceviche: a great way to start the dinner. Very shareable; love the balance of sour and savory flavors. Tuna Tostada: my favorite! I've never had a tuna tostada before, and it's nothing like what I expected. Mussels: you cannot go wrong with the mussels. The bread goes so well with this. Considering the dishes seem so original and the quick service, I'd definitely recommend this spot to my friends.

Wow. This place blew away my expectations. The entire experience was on par. I couldn't believe it wasn't packed in there for brunch. It is a bit more upscale, so depending on what you order, you may be looking at $25-50 for brunch but everything we had was worth it.We started with the ceviche, which was unlike any I've had but the best I've ever had. The combination and complexity of flavors was amazing. The fresh tostada chips *chefs kiss* so happy my husband pushed to order that. He got the chicken enchiladas for his entree which wouldn't have been my choice but they were very good for enchiladas.I got the steak & eggs, which was on the pricier side and the pancakes (yes, I need two breakfasts). The steak has great flavor but was a tad over cooked for my medium rare liking but not dry by any means. The potatoes are not "smashed" as listed but were tasty nonetheless and came with a sauce that was BOMB. The pancakes were also delicious. Crispy outside and soft thick inside, almost an undertone of cornbread which I liked. The service was great as well! They do wait between courses, making for a longer meal, but it does ensure everything is fresh. Overall great experience.

Ran a bit late and hostess was kinda bitchy about it so she just left a bad taste in my mouth. Otherwise, the staff and team at Suenos other than the hostess was awesome. Super accommodating, kind and incredibly patient. Drinks - get the Caliente los friscos. Very good. Oysters we're okay. The tostadas were incredible. Especially the mixto. Ceviche was very good. Had a nice kick to it. The Black Caesar was interesting. Didn't really taste like a Caesar salad so their take on it was eh. The pulpo skewer was awesome but I couldn't help thinking about My Octopus teacher. The steak was super delicious. Nicely charred and Smokey. Flan was ok. Wasn't the best ever but this off menu merengue with mango sorbet was great.

What a spot! You cannot go wrong at Suenos, great vibe, top notch food and cool location inside the Soho house. We sampled quite a few items including the tuna tostada, sinaloa shrimp, the ceviche, the oysters, the pulpo skewers and the mussels. We also got two of the mocktail drinks, which were awesome, highly suggest the tamarind one! Love a spot that does good mocktails, very exciting for those who don't drink! Every single dish has such a unique taste and is paired with other ingredients in an intriguing and fun way. You really cannot go wrong on anything you choose but the mains we enjoyed the most were the shrimp and the oysters. The oysters broth is so good you want to drink it! The caramel on the flan is delectable, I would definitely get that as your dessert! The service is prompt, courteous and kind. Chef Stephen is a genius when it comes to keeping dishes fun and interesting and we cannot wait to be back! I am still thinking about all the different tastes from everything we ate! A meal that is memorable for sure, give it a visit as soon as you can!

I'm torn since I had such huge high expectations and they didn't let me down in any way, but I thought the food wasn't as great as it could have been.The service was wonderful and attentive and food came out timely, but not rushed. The extra star is for the staff. Plates were okay in size, but many of the flavors weren't as punchy as I would expect. I'd want aguachile to be citrus forward, negro fish to be smoky and sauces to be more in your face. Everything tasted fine, but at the end of the night we decided we don't need to hurry back.

Incredible pop-up restaurant located inside of SoHo House in the West Loop. It's only open for 6 months so GO NOW! The mariscos concept menu is beyond delicious, you seriously cannot go wrong with anything you order. Our server was so helpful and sweet sharing her recommendations for what to order. The restaurant itself is a bit loud but nothing out of the ordinary for a Friday night in the city. Prices were decent for the locations / what we ordered. Listing what we got below -- everything was great.- tuna tostada- sueños ceviche- pulpo skewers- skirt steak

We made reservations thinking this place would be packed. I was shocked to see it more than half empty during brunch right at opening. A few more parties did arrive by the time we were eating, but unfortunately didn't get all the way full. The entrance is a little confusing. The restaurant is upstairs and that is where the host is at. We walked all over looking for this place. We started off with a Bloody Mary. It was served with a pepper and had a nice spicy kick to it. We ordered a side of plantains and my wife ordered their Chilaquiles Rojos. These were served with a red sauce that tasted like something my mom or wife would have made. That says a lot. Some really home style flavors going on here. They also came with a fried egg, anejo cheese, crema and avocado. I don't eat it with avocado at home, and I must say, it adds a lot of flavor. I ordered their Aguachile. It was served with Kapachi fish, coconut, serrano, cucumber and avocado. This is my first time trying aguachile with fish. I've only ever had it made with shrimp. Aguachiles is traditionally a very spicy dish. Suenos version had virtually no heat at all. While still very flavorful, I will admit I was a tad bit disappointed. The good thing is that the plate itself was not disappointing, just the fact that it wasn't spicy at all. You can really taste the cucumber and coconut in their sauce. It had a very tropical and fresh taste to it. It was also served with a side of tostadas which is 100% required to eat this dish. (It looks like they have possibly changed their menu and it now has habanero instead of Serrano.) So I'm really curious now to see if the level is spice has changed up a bit. Overall, I know this is a pop up and it won't be around for much longer. I'll be curious to see what Chef Stephen Sandoval does next. I'll be sure to follow.

My visit here exceeded all my expectations-I'm afraid I'm really spoiled now from the quality of all their seafood dishes! We came in on Friday night around 8 and got a high table as walk ins but if you have time to make a reservations that's the safer bet. It's an intimate cozy space with an open kitchen and bar so you can see the whole restaurant from any spot. Since it's small it's a little loud the atmosphere was fun and lively. We started with two drinks. One was caliente en los trópicos which is a tequila (or maybe mezcal) with guava, passion fruit, and coconut. This one was incredible not super sweet and the creamy coconut+smoky alc worked beautifully together. My partner got the tinto en el invierno which reminded me of a sangria but had brandy and some spices in it as well-fantastic. We shared 6 oysters (3 white soy and 3 pico), pico were my favorite- definitely worth getting even if your iffy about oysters. The citrusy spice helps balance any fishy taste. Now for the mains. The pescado taco blew my mind into pieces. It's this massive piece of cod fried in crispy brown batter and served on a bed of shredded cabbage all on a corn tortilla with a side of red salsa. It was crunchy on the outside, perfectly seasoned, and moist-fall apart on the inside. This was the best piece of fried fish I've ever eaten. The mixta tostada was a mix of octopus and shrimp with avocado, sliced radishes, and some other ingredients on a tostada and this was also incredible. The textures of the seafood, avocado, and crispy tostada worked so well! The pulpo skewers features octopus that was tender and not over cooked alternating with baby potatoes all drizzled with some chimichurri. I was so pleased with every part of this meal and I'll be on the lookout for more pop ups from this group in the future!

There has been a lot of social media hype around this pop-up, but I was very underwhelmed. The dishes are small, so you have to order at least 4 between two people. This racks up and gets expensive - and with these prices you might as well go to a nicer restaurant in West Loop. The octopus was the best dish and flavorful, but the others weren't anything special. We were recommended the tuna tostada, but this wasn't great and lacked in size and flavor. The soft shell crab was our second favorite dish, and the hamachi collar was tasty too. My cocktail was supposed to be their signature 'spicy margarita' with mezcal, but there was no spice and just lots of sugary juice. Service was super quick and the place unique, but I was pretty disappointed overall!

5/5- highly recommend!Sad that this is a pop up and I wish it was a permanent place.We tried the skirt steak and burrito (which also had steak inside!). Both were delicious. The burrito had just the right amount of crunch and warmth. Tasted fresh and filing. I was very full by the half way through. The ingredients list in the menu said fries so I thought I'd get a side of fries but plot twist- they were inside the burrito! The steak was also delicious. Perfectly cooked to medium and generous portion. The cocktails we tried (bienvenidas las hojitas and caliente en los tropicos) were also delicious. Service was very friendly and quick. I would definitely visit again!!
