TAMA Chicago

"With its bright white exterior and black picket fence, Tama is one of those places you can't walk by without wondering what's going on inside. Come inside and you won't be disappointed. Chefs/co-owners Avgeria Stapaki and Adalberto Olaez have fashioned a menu that is as likable as the setting. It's all designed for sharing, making it a perfect spot for dinner with friends or larger parties. Dishes share a Mediterranean and South American influence with a bit of the Asian diaspora. Charred oyster mushrooms tossed with caramelized chopped hazelnuts are mixed tableside with a thick miso yogurt for a savory opener, while short rib orzo loaded with Parmesan is perfectly indulgent. Greek wines figure largely on the interesting wine list." - Michelin Inspector
