Chimba offers a true Taste of South America in the heart of Midtown Miami — where bold flavors, vibrant culture, and creative technique meet. Our menu brings together craveable dishes inspired by the street food of Lima, the fire of Argentine parrillas, and the spice and soul of the continent.

Led by renowned chef Benjamin Tellez, plates are crafted to share, cocktails are inventive and spirit-forward, and the vibe is warm, laidback, and alive with music.

Whether it’s a long lunch, dinner with friends, happy hour or a laid-back weekend brunch, Chimba is a destination for food lovers who crave flavor, rhythm, and a little discovery in every bite.

    We came here for the first time and their lunch special offer was great. We had the empanada and Elote for appetizers. The empanada came with a spicy/tangy sauce that was a perfect complement to the crispy shell and well-flavored filling. The Elote's citrus sauce brought out the sweetness of the perfectly charred corn and the creamy salty cheese. For the main course, we had the Milanese and the quinoa chicken salad. The beef steak and French fries were fried to perfection. The salad had a tangy dressing with great quality avocado and beet. We shared a flan, and it was dense with caramel but not too sweet so we were glad we shared. The place had a great vibe and our waiter was attentive and friendly. We'll be back!
