Wow, wow, wow!! Come for dinner, stay for the shows (both of them). Food is fantastic. Be prepared to spend a fair amount of money, but it's totally worth it, especially if you end up staying for 3+ hours like we did. Tip your waitperson generously, and bring a few small bills for the dancers and the ladies' bathroom attendant. The belly dancers were terrific, and came in all shapes and sizes (including one male dancer), so we all enjoyed the view! Oh, wear shoes you can dance in!
good place. lot of room to dance. and people are friendly. they will actually dance with you when you ask. two more dance halls upstairs. bachata lovers will have their thirst quenched from 7 pm to 11 pm continuous bachata as of jan 2018 this is what the observation is . good place. will visit there again
Loved the food and hospitality at this Morocco restaurant at the heart of downtown. Huda was lovely and her service was amazing, she made us feel very welcome to this first time at Alhambra
The ambience was amazing except that the music got too loud. Very good performances that kept us entertained throughout. Very interacting and engaging. A photographer took our pictures and later brought us the frames selling them for $20 each.

I and my family absolutely LOVE the Alhambra Palace AND Victoria AND ALL the staff including the Morocco gentlemen who is so very nice! My favorite palace of Chicago offers a remarkable combination of history, art, and culinary delights. The drinks are expertly crafted, and the food menu features a tantalizing selection of Middle Eastern and North African dishes that will leave you craving for more. Going back to Victoria's exceptional service further elevates the dining experience, ensuring that you feel pampered and well taken care of throughout your visit. Also, she’s an excellent photographer and takes such beautiful pictures. I just love them and will get them printed.
Starting with the drinks, Alhambra Palace offers a variety of refreshing and unique options. The signature Alhambra Palace cocktail is a must-try, with its perfect balance of flavors and presentation. For those seeking a non-alcoholic drink, their mocktails are equally impressive, featuring creative combinations of flavors that are both refreshing and satisfying.
Moving on to the food, Alhambra Palace offers a menu that showcases the rich and diverse cuisine of the Middle East and North Africa. From traditional mezze platters to succulent kebabs and aromatic tagines, every dish is crafted with care and attention to detail. The flavors are truly exceptional, with each bite transporting you to the vibrant streets of the region.
One standout dish is the lamb tagine, which is cooked to perfection and served with tender meat that melts in your mouth. The blend of spices and aromatic herbs creates a symphony of flavors that is truly unforgettable. Another must-try is the falafel platter, with crispy yet moist falafel served alongside a variety of delicious dips and sauces.
The service provided by Victoria was simply outstanding. Her warm and friendly demeanor made us feel instantly welcomed and her knowledge of the menu was impressive. She took the time to explain each dish and provided excellent recommendations based on our preferences. Her attention to detail and genuine care for our dining experience made our visit truly memorable.
As for the ambiance, stepping into Alhambra Palace is like entering a different world. The intricate Moorish-inspired decor, with its stunning hand-carved furniture, beautiful stone mosaics, and mesmerizing crystal chandeliers, creates a truly magical atmosphere. The attention to detail and commitment to authenticity is evident in every corner of the restaurant, transporting diners to the grandeur of the original Alhambra.
In conclusion, dining at Alhambra Palace is a feast for the senses. From the moment you step inside, you are immersed in a world of history, art, and delicious cuisine. The drinks and food offerings are exceptional, with an array of flavors that will satisfy even the most discerning palates. And Victoria's exceptional service only added to the overall experience. Whether you're a history enthusiast or simply someone in search of an extraordinary dining experience, Alhambra Palace is a must-visit destination in downtown Chicago.
Best experience ever. Alex was amazing !!!! It was a large party and he didn’t miss a beat. Food was delicious and atmosphere incredible. I learned a new line dance.
My service Alex was amazing!! Amazing host and loved all of Asha’s performances. 10/10 experience for my first time here and can’t wait to visit again.
It was a wonderful experience enjoying the variety show during dinner. The food was good but not amazing. Maybe it's just us not being used to Mediterranean food but the service and the atmosphere in general was on point. We definitely enjoyed it and will be back. I have already recommended it to friends and family. Make sure you go during one of the shows. And so you know, the valet parking is necessary and it's $20.
