    A hidden gem and great tasting food, low-cost and more importantly, healthy portions of tapas size. Will definitely return sooner...

    Love Tapas. Everything we tried was very well done. Will definitely be going back to try more. The Lamb lollipops with polenta are excellent.

    T42 is a hidden gem! The service is top notch, and every item on the menu is well thought out. The flavors of the meals compliment each other beautifully. The Gin Thyme cocktail should not be missed.

    We love the new feel of this place! It was really cute, and the brunch was awesome! It had a very cozy vibe. I would totally recommend it for brunch with the girls or date night. They have bottomless mimosas!

    Our first time since under new management. Totally underwhelmed. We went for the advertised happy hour and asked if the cocktails were happy hour prices. At first said yes, but returned to say no, only the wines. So ordered the Chianti. When the bill came, the wines were full price. Then told only the T42 label wines were at happy hour prices. What! The server knew we were there for happy hour. When you order wine, you have no idea as to the label. I doubt they have any wine that isn’t T42. The manager corrected the charge. Oh, and the food - mediocre at best. The only pleasant experience was staff. Such fond memories of the previous management. So disappointed. Will not by coming back.

    Mary, I wanted to reach out and apologize for your experience with us. We will make sure that our team is better informed with our Happy Hour specifications to make sure that this does not happen again. We are sorry to hear that you didn't enjoy either of the Happy Hour Flatbreads that you tried. We would love if you gave us another chance to experience our tapas menus, the new owners have carefully crafted the flavor profiles of each dish! Please ask for me personally. Thank you, Angelina

    My husband and I just moved into Carol Stream and wanted to check out a place we had never tried before. The restaurant itself is very cute, with fun quotes on the walls. We were absolutely blown away by the food. The flavors were incredible and we could tell someone with a true appreciation for food was in the kitchen! The service was wonderful as well. Omar was our server and he was a total gem.
    T42Responded on October 8, 2020
    We, like you, are new to Carol Stream and appreciate your kind words and are so glad that you enjoyed the décor and our food! We have spent a lot of time perfecting the flavor profiles of each dish to share with our guests. Our servers are held to high standards and it is great to hear that Omar exceeded those. We look forward to seeing you again very soon!

    We tried their new tapas menu and there were many delicious choices. We especially liked the pot pie puffs and mushroom risotto.
    T42Responded on September 20, 2020
    We are so glad to hear that you enjoyed our American Bistro small plate menu. Since you enjoyed our Mushroom Risotto, you should definitely come back to try our Italian tapas menu on Thursday, we have a Pappardelle Marsala with braised short rib that you would love! We look forward to seeing you again very soon! Thank you!
