“My first time visit was a wonderful experience! The environment was warm, welcoming, and very family-friendly. The food was delicious, and there were great options for everyone. The restaurant is especially kid-friendly, which made our visit even more enjoyable. Definitely a wholesome moment. The staff was incredibly attentive throughout our meal, making sure we had everything we needed. Our waitress was exceptionally kind, friendly, and provided outstanding service. Mayra made us feel welcome and helped create a pleasant dining experience from start to finish. I highly recommend this place and look forward to visiting again!”

“5* no doubt. I first came to Baha about 4 years ago, and since then I keep coming back whenever I’m in Chicago. I’m a truck driver and I’ve eaten mariscos all over the U.S. — from Tijuana-style spots near the border all the way to Boston — and I can honestly say their 7 Mares soup is the best I’ve had anywhere in the country. The seafood is always incredibly fresh, the flavors are rich and authentic, and the service is consistently excellent. You can tell this place takes real pride in what they do. Highly recommended for anyone who truly loves authentic mariscos.”

“Comimos ya la pasamos súper bien, me hubiese gustado que la mesera me hubiese dicho que la paella era picante pero su respuesta fue: estás en un restaurante mexicano todo es picante, no me la pude comer. SI USTED NO COME PICANTE pedir sin picante 🫠 mal hecho por la mesera al final gastamos menos $500 5 adultos y 2 niños ellos cobran 18% de típs exigidos ESPERAMOS 1 hora para que nos trajeran la comida ”
