Nacional 27 - Chicago, IL Review

We went to Nacional 27 for my friend's birthday and might I say - they have most amazing  the cocktail flights -my favorite being the El Corazon and the Mojito with habanero pepper in it! I like the fact that it saves you from having to think about your next drink when the first one starts working. 

We had the family style meal for appetizers and desserts and there was more than enough for all 6 of us. Starters were a sampler of all the appetizers and my favorite was the plantain corquetta. I ordered the skirt steak for the main course and asked for it to be medium but it came back medium well - still yummy but people should keep in mind that they seem to have a different level of doneness that what I consider normal.

I finished the flan and my friend licked the sorbet clean; rich chocolate, almost too rich if you ask me and I also found the creme brulee a little too eggy for my taste. I would highly recommend Nacional for an anniversary or birthday outing - Our prix fixe meal was $40 with out tax and tip but adding the alcohol can bring it up to even 75. More if you have higher tolerance than I do :-)
