Located just west of downtown Naperville, Mesón Sabika has been serving the community since 1990. Built in 1847, the pristine four-acre estate and beautiful mansion welcome you before you reach the driveway.

For a quiet, romantic dining experience we recommend a week night reservation. The small mansion rooms fill up on the weekends, making for a more lively dining experience. Our dress code is "proper casual/casual dressy." Gentlemen, we respectfully ask that you cover up your arms (no tank tops).

    We love so many wonderful restaurants in Northern Illinois. This is our favorite. We have loved so many breakfasts and dinners here. We had a wonderful experience eating here for our 23rd Anniversary. To me the restaurant is a hidden gem.

    Wonderful dinner! Great “special meals” this evening. Two of us were treated to grilled shrimp and lobster ravioli with an excellent sauce. Shared cannoli and Tiramisu. They have gluten free pasta for a choice. Great dinner.
