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. Whether you dine in one of the mansion’s eight dining rooms decorated in traditional Spanish décor, attend a wedding or corporate event in the pavilion, or sit out back on the patio, the cuisine of Spain and delicious drinks make for an unparalleled dining experience. 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). And ladies, we ask that the majority of your midriff is covered (no bandeaux’s). We ask that everyone remove their baseball hats when dining inside the mansion. Thank you!

    The food was great! They need to work a bit on their timing. The salads came and we barely started when the entrees were given as well. The appetizer came at the same time as our meal. However the dishes we tried were delicious and we will be coming back

    The restaurant was jumping on a Sunday afternoon. Met girlfriends for a birthday brunch. Service was great and polite, food was amazing. I had green chili and chicken enchiladas… highly recommend and a lavender honey oat milk latte. Atmosphere was lively and prices were reasonable. We will be back.

    Fantastic farm-to-table restaurant in North Aurora with lots of locally sourced ingredients. Fantastic beer, whiskey and liquor selection. Wait staff is top notch and very attentive, courteous and prompt. Farm house decor is very comfortable yet modern with lots of wood beams and exposed stone work. In-house green house is a nice touch that adds to their farm-to-table credentials. The spicy sticky chicken thighs and Asian slaw were very tasty! A real gem!

    We keep coming back because Cooper’s Hawk continues to excel. As their popularity has grown, they have evolved so that the customer experience is top notch. We especially appreciated the manager, Paul, coming over to thank us for our patronage. And really enjoyed interacting with and the services of our waitress, Joanna. This is our favorite restaurant, and we look forward to every visit.
