"Festive", "loud" and "happening" sums up this "huge" West Loop "social arena" that "lives up to its name" thanks to "vibrant" decor ("colors explode at you"), "fabulous" drinks and Nuevo Latino dishes so "flavorful" some have a "foodgasm"; inside has a "lively" atmosphere and prices are "reasonable" , so even if a few sniff it's just "so-so", most agree it's "perfect for large groups."

This sprawling, Pan-Latin spot features a lively soundtrack to accompany its Central and South American-inspired food. If you want to be at the center of the action, head for the two-story central dining room, where brightly colored walls and enormous red-and-yellow lanterns complete the party atmosphere. If you prefer not to shout through your meal, request a table in one of the more intimate...

Carnivale Restaurant Review

It's Kleiner-style excess at this explosively bright, beyond-festive hot-spot where the cocktail scene is as “caliente” as the menu. If intimacy is what you seek, you won’t find it here; instead, good people-watching is the draw, and there’s plenty to go around. The food --- under the hand of David Dworshak --- carries the torch, incorporating local and seasonal produce with memorable results....

Jerry Kleiner -- king of haute cuisine -- puts his stamp on Nuevo Latino with this over-the-top Technicolor room that looks like the set for a Beyoncé video. Flying vertical stripes painted in Cuban hothouse colors flank ceiling-to-floor velvet draperies, a balcony and enormous cloth-hung chandeliers. Separate ceviche bar with halibut, shrimp and oyster versions takes things to appropriately...

I have requested a quiet place and I was placed almost in the middle of the room. Did not make a big deal although I saw at least 3 couples that were placed on 4 chair tables and look more comfortable than where we were. Drinks... My wife ordered a Margarita which it was served on a vodka glass - for what we paid for - it would have been nice to get a taller glass. Food was good but it appeared...
