This place is a Latin themed restaurant. The co-owner and exec. Chef Cory Morris has had exec. Chef positions at Mercat a al Planxa and Rural Society which are both in Chicago and he had won the overall championship on the TV show Chopped. In other words he has great skills and it shows here as it did when we delighted in his food at the two places listed above. Our entrees included scallops, a classic Latin favorite chicken and rice, skirt steak and a hamburger. My burger came with yucca fries which I never had before. They were seasoned with a lemony-garlic aioli and were great, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The skirt steak was very tender and juicy and the scallops and chicken were also cooked perfectly. We had the octopus and empanadas for apps and flan and donuts with chocolate sauce for dessert. My wife said this was the best food she ever had and she's fussy. 😉. I thoroughly enjoyed this and highly recommend it. They know what they are doing.

The atmosphere at Ronero will impress! I took 3 others to this inviting but intimate space. The tasteful ambiance let us focus on conversation and food. The black bean/feta appetizer with crisp plantains was an easy starter, and both salads were winners. The surprise hit for our table was the ceviche, served in a coconut milk broth (which I traditionally don't like).
The meat dish (pork and mango with brussels dish) was too good; we ordered a second. The vegetarian entree (rice and saffron butternut squash) did not disappoint against its counterpart.
Dessert was a denser and creamier take on flan, versus a rice pudding bowl, brought out and explained by the chef. Both were stellar for taking a basic treat to a complex and new level. We planned to explore the cocktail menu but ended up falling hard for the Cadejo Blanco (rum with pineapple, lime, cilantro and jalapeno) and sticking with it for the whole dinner.
Do not miss the opportunity to treat yourself to Ronero; our table left debating who had the best time and meal last night!
Loved Ronero and will definitely be back. Best service I have had at a restaurant/bar in recent memory (thanks for the ropa vieja and dictador!), delicious bites, on point atmosphere and a selection of rums that will keep us returning. As a true rum lover, its great to find a place with such a large library to choose from. Glad to have found this new gem!
