Delicious sharable plates, we had the beets and focaccia and both were 10/10. Staff was super helpful and friendly. We enjoyed sitting out on the patio.

TAMA Chicago is the kind of place that makes you feel like you’ve stumbled upon a well-kept secret. Tucked away from the usual dining spots, it’s a true hidden gem that delivers an impressive culinary experience from start to finish. The execution of the food is where TAMA truly shines. The beef carpaccio was a standout — perfectly sliced, delicate, and balanced with just the right seasoning and garnishes to enhance the flavor without overpowering it. The mussels were equally memorable: fresh, plump, and served in a broth so rich and flavorful that you’ll want to soak up every last drop. Service was attentive without being intrusive, and the ambiance strikes a nice balance between modern and cozy. TAMA isn’t trying to chase trends — it’s confidently doing its own thing, and doing it incredibly well.

The four of us loved our meal and everyone at the restaurant was fun and friendly from the moment we stepped inside to meeting the chef at the end of our meal. Lovely interior. The best bites we had were the cauliflower steak - sauce was so good, oyster mushrooms, braised lamb empanadas, and the 1/2 chicken. And to top it all off, the burnt Basque cheesecake was delicious.

My boyfriend and I loved TAMA. We started with the froccia bread and truffle ice cream—couldn’t believe it was actually ice cream. It was something totally new to us and honestly, it was bomb. Then came the mussels (10/10), and the short rib with orzo—fall-off-the-bone amazing. We were talked into trying the oyster mushrooms and ended up loving them. The patatas bravas were perfectly golden and tossed in the most mouthwatering sauce. Our server, a sweet Greek woman (wish I remembered her name), surprised us with a glass of champagne to toast our anniversary—such a thoughtful touch. She even introduced us to the owner, I think her name is Anaglista? (Definitely spelling that wrong.) She has a beautiful Greek name and the warmest energy. You can just tell how much she cares about her restaurant and the people she’s serving. Truly a real one.
