Stop by with my friend for early birthday celebration. We started with tuna tartare and tomato ceviche (refresh by the cucumbers). Pork belly was nice glazed with a little bit sweetness and spiciness. The main we had was the seafood paella, which was topped with Mahi-mahi, scallops, octopus, chorizo and shrimp. It could be more perfect if less salty, we had to order a side rice to mix. The corn dessert highlight the night, it is a must try. Overall, everything was beautifully played and so flavorful. Very cozy vibes just a little loud for kids maybe. The service was warm and friendly. read more

A charming Mexican restaurant with beautiful décor and a fun, inviting atmosphere. The space feels stylish and cozy at the same time, making it a great place to relax with friends or family. The food was fresh, flavorful, and well-prepared. I especially enjoyed their unique take on the paella and ceviche--it felt like they put their own creative spin on traditional dishes while still keeping everything balanced and delicious. The service was friendly and attentive throughout the meal. The only downside was the noise level, as the bar area made the restaurant quite loud, especially during busy hours. Still, the quality of the food, pleasant service, and attractive setting made for a very enjoyable dining experience, and I would happily return. read more

Food: A bout of elevated Mexican fanfare with a twist of Peruvian. I tried the tuna tartare, ceviche de pescado, ceviche cerratillero, and the cheek birria all to share. The seafood was so delicious and fresh rivaling any I've had elsewhere! Definitely all great in their own right and are must orders, especially the tartare and the pescado. The slow cooked birria was delicious as well and loved the build your own style of the dish. I only wish there was a bit more birria but overall deeply flavorful. The cocktails were also a must have, especially their take on the espresso martini. I didn't need dessert after that! Ambiance: Simply cozy and elegant. There is the normal dining floor and the lower speakeasy hidden by a door that blends right into the wall to the left of the restaurant entrance. Service: So friendly and receptive! Our bartender was chatty and was really attentive to our tastes and feedback. Kudos! read more

Great dining experience at Matilda! Beautiful interior and also has a small patio. Server was extremely friendly and kind and provided great recommendations. Only note - very expensive. Probably wouldn't come back again considering the price point but thoroughly enjoyed my meal. My mocktail was $16 and with four of us splitting the bill it came out to be $90 each.

Matilda is a relatively new restaurant that specializes in Peruvian cuisine. The restaurant itself is a bit small but vibey. The tables are all very close to each other and it can be quite loud. However the service was great and the food was amazing! I did the tasting menu which was priced well. It was 5 courses and I enjoyed every bite. My favorite dish was the plantain tacos and the conchas marisqueras. I can't wait to go back. I'll be telling all my friends about this place! read more

Went for girls night, the hostess and servers were all wonderful and accommodating! The tuna tartare was very fresh, but felt like it was missing something. Others at the table did the tasting menu and loved it! Drinks are super tasty, go with your server's recs if you have questions! Sat outside so didn't get the inside vibes, but beautiful inside! read more

Matilda - Tuna tartare - Mexican Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Excellent brunch. The steak and eggs are small pieces of carne asada with the eggs put on top. It's a good dish but not a giant portion. The beans and tortillas are good and the small side of chorizo is tasty. Put it on the tortilla with the steak. The sauce is super spicy - be careful. The breakfast tacos are very, very good but again, a small portion. Two small tacos. Same for the huevos rancheros, but my wife loves that dish. Perfect eggs over easy. We'd get all three dishes again for the two of us. I liked the pisco sour but once again, it is a tiny portion. Filling up here is expensive but if you got the cashes it's absolutely worth it. read more

Booked a table but sat at the bar. The interior is very nice, with several separate eating sections. The decor is lovely. The bartender was great, friendly and helpful. The menu is very shareable, Mexican/Peru vibes. We started with the guacamole, which is mixed at the table. It was very good, and the accompanied tostadas was fun. The special ceviche was delicious, there was some sweet potato, and some crispy calamari included. We ordered the chicken quisos (a Mae your own taco), which comes with corn tortillas, black beans, and 2 hot sauces, one with poblano, the other habenero. Finally, the plantain and chorizo tacos were tasty. A unique flavor and profile, out of the ordinary. They do have some outdoor seating, and I would highly recommend giving it a try. read more

Went here on a weekday night upon recommendation from a friend. The wait situation was frustrating. We were first told an hour, then forty five minutes, but after waiting we never received a text or call. When we checked back in, there was still no table ready, and we were finally seated about ten minutes later. The hosts really need to do a better job estimating wait times and communicating. Once seated though, the place was a total vibe. I loved the concrete concept mixed with plants, and the speakeasy downstairs is a must. It feels like a cave with red lighting and a completely different energy. The food was pretty good overall. The ceviche was fine but not memorable. My favorites were the lomo saltado and the sweet plantain and chorizo tacos. The lomo had amazing flavor with a citrusy kick, and the chorizo and plantain combo was so unique and delicious. The paella had good flavor but the texture was more risotto-like, and I was hoping for that classic crispy paella finish. read more

Loved my recent experience @ Matilda! Love the look of the place as its such a modern mexican/peruvian joint with some flare to it. Walked in and the door and was greeted by the lovely hostess staff. I was a bit early for my reservation and the bar was pretty full, so they told me I could go downstairs to their speakeasy Clandestine (see review later). The door next to the hostess stand is the entrance to this very chill speakeasy. Had one and came back upstairs at my time. The main parts of the place is well lit, but dining table area near the wall is a little intimately lit, the way I like it. Once seated, we were introduced to the lovely Jenny, who wound up being our server. She was awesome...you are lucky if you get her as she is really good with breaking down the menu and teliing you whats what. We started with the tuna tartare and it was very damn good! For my main dish, I went with the Conchinita Pibil and it was pretty good. Its basically pork shoulder marinated in sour orange and achiote, wrapped in a banana leaf with tortillas on the side...yum! Black beans and salsas come with...one was really spicy. My friend had the Sweet Plantain & Chorizo Tacos and they were really good! 2 tacos is the dish. Washed it all down with a spiced pear old fashioned (delicious) and a mezcal drink by the name of Jalician which was ok. So many things on this menu I would like to come back and try...guess Im gonna have to come back over soon. Love this place read more

Mexican meets Peruvian! Really good, albeit expensive. Shared the tuna tartar, chicken tinga guiso, and ceviche pescado. It was the perfect order for two people and everything was delicious! Love the blue corn tostadas that came with the tartare and ceviche. The guiso came with fresh tortillas and beans and some sort of sauces. Everything was super tasty. Would love to try the paella next time. For drinks I ordered the secret garden which was refreshing and super tasty. Our server was so sweet and friendly, and helpful picking out dishes from the menu. The ambience is just delightful and I love that there is a speakeasy beneath the restaurant. Highly recommend! read more

Matilda - Tuna tartar and ceviche pescado - Mexican Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Incredible. The food is so delicious, service was wonderful, and the space is beautiful! Highlights: -the elote quemado dessert is easily my top 3 favorite bites I've had in Chicago. It's a sweet (not too sweet) corn cake with a brûléed crust, crowned with an airy cajeta foam, corn ashes. SO yummy. I wish I could have this every day. -the guacamole tatemado. Hear me out, yes it's guacamole, but the presentation was a showstopper. It looks like an avocado but they mash it up tableside. Servicing size may be for just two people so note that if you're with a bigger group They have an extensive drink menu. I got a mocktail and it was quite delicious! read more

Amazing service. Really great atmosphere. The food that hit was amazing - a few fell flat. They have a speakeasy cocktail bar under the restaurant that you enter through the door next to the hostess. The charred avocado/guacamole was a miss. It's super cool that they char it to make it seem like it has the skin still, but that's it. The flavor was just lacking. The lomo saltado was the standout. I rarely eat beef and this was an occasion I'm glad I dabbled. I could have drank the juice. The serving of rice is tiny though. We had to get an extra rice, which was the same size and we had to pay extra for. The rice was really good tho. The tinga tacos were excellent as well. SWEET PLANTAIN & CHORIZO!!! I'd go back for these. 2 per order. You'll want to eat both yourself. Everyone should get their own order. Ceviche was good, but not the best I've ever had. Middle of the road. Servers were super on point and personable. Offered some recommendations and checked in on us. All of the cocktails were phenomenal. read more

I read up quite a bit on Matilda before dining there on a Wednesday evening, and perhaps my expectations were too high, but I left feeling somewhat deflated by the experience. The food was creatively presented but was overall lacking flavor. The drinks were mediocre; the service was excellent. Sweet plantain and chorizo tacos: Recommended by our server, mostly plantains on a cold, blue corn tortilla with a small crumble of chorizo. The honey truffle adds a little hit of flavor but overall unimpressed for nearly $20 for two tiny street tacos with minimal filling. Guacamole: Creative presentation - I won't spoil the surprise. The blue and yellow corn tortillas are fried and serve as a bland dipping vehicle. The guacamole is served table side and has a vibrant yellow sauce (yellow pepper our waiter told us) which again lacked any depth. Lomo saltado: I did not try this dish, but for over $40 a few pieces of meat, veggies and a small side of white rice, the hot dish did not seem to be worth it. The bar was lively and you can tell that the team wants you to have a great experience. I was just surprised by the lack of flavor in the food for the prices. I think it would be a great spot to come just for cocktails. If you have anyone in your group who is hard of hearing, this would not be the place. read more

TLDR: Service was great, but the food didn't blow my mind; Good but not amazing. Also, it's very loud. Our server really pushed the guacamole--and I get it, the avocado comes out charred, and it looks like it's a whole unpeeled avocado. They chop/mix it up table-side, which is all very fun to watch, but it just tasted like a regular guacamole. It lacked any wow flavors. The Cheek Birria was very tender, but the cinnamon was a little too overpowering and off-putting for me. The Cochinita Pibil was very tasty with the sour orange and achiote pepperiness. The Carne Asada taco was tasty but very soggy. Juicy is good, but there was too much juice, which made the cheese crust very soggy. Pork Belly taco was tasty, but could've used a little more salt? I'm usually not a salty person (haha) but my first bite could've used more salt. Overall, it was a good experience but I'm not in a hurry to come back. read more

The restaurant itself is so cool with such a great vibe. We tried the $10 pisco sours and the cocktail of the week, a lychee martini -- both were delicious! Definitely want to come back and try the food next time. read more

I came here with a group for a birthday celebration. We were seated in the private dining space right next to the kitchen so we had a fun view. We went with the waiter's recommendation for food items. We had fresh guacamole prepared at the table, ceviche, and tomato salad for starters. Then we had the asada and plaintain tacos - both were phenomenal. We also tried the paella and their version of the lomo saltado. There were two fantastic desserts as well but the corn dessert was my favorite. The food is amazing. Definitely worth a try. read more

When The Doctor, Queen and I were walking down the street to locate Matilda, I had a sense of déjà vu. I had a little bit of trouble locating the door, but we found it. As I walked inside, I was immediately struck again with a sense of déjà vu, but I had never been here before. Once we sat down at the table with the other folks we met, I saw a gentleman come out of a door next to the hostess stand and then it hit me! This was the location of one of my favorite restaurants, Marchesa, with that wonderful Champagne Cave in the basement. Loved that place, but what a shock to see how Matilda had transform that space into something very different, but still lovely. Instead of the open area concept, Matilda transformed the space into a cool cavern above ground. The room was split into several of these cavern section, with the appearance of an arch opening, with seating in under the arch. It reminded me of The Summer Cave a restaurant I had the pleasure of eating at back in 2012 in the hotel Grotta Palasezze in Italy. Not that Matilda was in an underground cave, but the sense of eating in an intimate cave like setting is what the decor reminded me of. Or I could have just had the Champagne Cave of old on my mind. Ok enough of that, let's get to the food. We started with the Guacamole Tatemado (fire-roasted avocado, Ají amarillo, acevichada sauce, pico de gallo, herb ash, warm house chips). It is prepped at the table. The presentation was nice and the gentleman preparing it described the preparation of the avocado prior to be brought out to the table. I am a fan of guacamole and this was a different way of prepping it as I had never had a fire-roasted avocado before...quite interesting. As another starter we each got the tuna tartare. This was a lovey appetizer, fresh in flavor and the addition of the furikake was an interesting flavor, giving a Mexican version of the dish a little bit of Asian flare. Our dinner guests and The Doctor got the carne asada tacos (grilled beef tenderloin, cheese crust, tomatillo salsa verde). These were two to an order and served open-faced instead of folded over. The layer of the cheese crust over the tortilla was an interesting touch. For my entrée I got the Tinga de Pollo Adobada (shredded chicken, chipotle-tomato braise, hints of clove and piloncillo). This was a very good dish, I just wished the portion had been a little bigger. This came with beans and tortillas on the side. As good as the dish was that I got, the pièce de résistance or the pedazo de resistencia (since we are talking about Mexican food) was the Matilda's Paella (Mahi-mahi, scallops, octopus, chorizo and shrimp over risotto style rice, Peruvian-Mexican chile salsa madre and Manchego) that The Queen got. This was truly an impressive looking dish and could definitely be shared between two people. There was plenty of seafood and the way it was prepared, the rice was mist definitely al dente, which was nice. There was plenty to take home for lunch the next day. The combination of seafood, mahi-mahi and the chorizo definitely took the flavor profile from Spain to Mexico and I was here for it. Honestly I was too bushy sampling The Queen's dish to see if had Socarrat, which is the slightly burnt rice at the bottom of the paella pan. There are those that require this in the pan for a true paella. Me , I am not married to that concept and if it is there and tastes good, we are good. If it isn't there, and it is tasty, I am good. I would have to come back and order this dish to very the presence of Socarrat, but this was very yummy. And I have to say the next day I thought it was better, with the flavor profile mellowing out becoming smoother on the palate. For dessert I got the Elote Quemado (sweet corn cake with a brûléed crust, crowned with an airy cajeta foam, corn ashes) and The Queen got the Tejuino Ice Cream and Chocolate - House fermented masa ice cream, piloncillo syrup and Chocolate Abuelita. The Elote Quemado was an interesting concept, being a literal corn dessert. I just didn't know what to make of it, it was good, but it took a bit for my brain to wrap around the idea of a corn dessert. Full transparency, I am not a big dessert person, so this is not a reflection on the preparation. I will say the presentation looked pretty and I enjoyed the foam, which made me chuckle because of the line from the movie "The Menu" when Judith Light says "I don't usually enjoy foam, but this is delicious"...HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Service was very good and attentive and I loved that there was a coat check as I am not a fan of sitting on my coat. I definitely need to come back for the paella and to see what is downstairs. I was told that the Champagne Cave is now a speak easy, so I have to check that out. The Cave made me feel like I was in Morocco again or in the tent of the Elder, the "one who sits above the Table" in John Wick 4. So I need to see what this speak easy is all about. read more

Matilda Restaurant delivers a standout Mexican-Peruvian fusion experience, pairing an electric atmosphere with genuinely exceptional service. The Guacamole Tatemado, fire-roasted and prepared tableside, sets the tone--fresh, smoky, and deeply flavorful. The ceviche de pescado is bright and refreshing, with a clean balance that highlights the quality of the fish. The Pescado Zarandeado is the clear centerpiece--perfectly char-grilled, well-seasoned, and presented with intention. It's a dish that feels both refined and rooted in tradition. Desserts seal the experience. The Elote Quemado, a sweet corn cake with a brûléed crust, is light yet indulgent, while the Tejuino ice cream with chocolate tastes unmistakably homemade--comforting, nostalgic, and easily among the most memorable desserts in recent memory. read more

Okay yall, buckle up because this is fixing to be a long review. A LARGE part of me wants to gatekeep this place because we were able to get a reservation the day before (I say this as I have an alarm set on my phone for Sunday morning trying to get a dinner reservation at another restaurant for April 25 -_-) -but I do want to highlight my experience. Location and restaurant - easy to get to in my opinion but I live in West Loop. We took a cab and arrived about 15 minutes before our 6:45 reservation. There were a couple seats open in the bar that we opted to sit in because we're just taller people and prefer bar seats. The ambiance was beautiful, giving modern elevated Tulum vibes without the bachelorette parties ;) neutral tones, sexy candles, music loud enough to create a vibe but soft enough to hear the person across from you. Everyone in the restaurant looked like they were having a sophisticated cocktail and dinner after work with friends. Anyways - we sat at the bar and were immediately greeted by MARLENE! our beautiful bartender and culinary conductor. She was sweet as could be and bonus points for laughing at my boyfriend's dad jokes! She gave us some great recommendations on food and drinks, she was incredibly knowledgeable on options and things she enjoyed and why she liked them. The food: Here's the order: Started with oysters (which was a random order by my boyfriend but fine). They had some sort of potion on top of them that was a flavor explosion in your mouth. I love oysters but will never be able to enjoy them again now knowing the peak they can reach. Tuna tartare - a classic dish done a million times but this was a culinary JOURNEY. Each ingredient was selected with purpose. Hit all of the 5 senses - taste, sight, touch, smell, I think at one point I heard it even. Tuna. Avacado. Seaweed and onion crisps. I'm currently cultivating a way to remake and eat as my hyper fixation meal for the next 3 months. Then we went to the tacos (pictured) Steak - perfect cut of meat, grilled not a SECOND too long or too short. ON A HOMEMADE CORN TORTILLA WITH CHEESE GRILLED ONTO IT. My personal favorite and the star of the show - the chorizo and sweet plantain taco. I don't even like chorizo. And I lived in TEXAS for 8 years. When I give this taco the title for the BEST taco I have ever had - I say that with my WHOLE CHEST. Sweet. Savory. A sauce. A whole thing. I'll lowkey carry this taco in my heart forever. Then we did a beef cheek birra. I will not describe this because it's just something everyone has to experience on their own. Rounded out with an ELOTE QUEMADO: Sweet corn cake with a brûléed crust, cajeta foam, corn ashes. Another experience everyone has to try. Unique, creative, and perfectly executed. A STANDING ovation to the staff. Service. And everyone involved. the only negative I have are the two top tables in the dining area did LOOK very close together, but I did not sit at one so I don't know for certain. read more

Matilda - Carne asada taco + sweet plantain taco - Mexican Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Came here with a foodie friend and we were WOWED. Highlights: *the service: David was so knowledgeable and shared his favorites with us (which were 3 item, not 78 that makes it impossible to decide). He also sent us a dessert and shot at the end of our meal because we enjoyed everything so much. *the food: we ordered tuna tartare (showstopper), ceviche (yum), sweet plantain tacos (MY FAVORITE), and braised cheek stew. Idk whose idea it was to put funky cheese with sweet plantains in a taco but they know what they're doing - haven't had anything like that before. The tortillas were also incredible - fresh & flavorful. Shoutout to the chef - definitely want to try their other restaurants. *the drinks: I ordered the pineapple pisco sour which was sweet and refreshing, and my friend ordered their take on a Bloody Mary which was savory and super good. Would absolutely come back, especially for the sweet plantain tacos and tuna tartare. Ambience was incredible and manager checked on us throughout the meal. read more

I thought the starters (ceviche and tartare) were very fresh and used high quality ingredients, but perhaps were a bit too strong in flavors for my personal palate. For example, the tartare was a bit too salty. The cheek birria however was delightful--super tender and flavorful, and paired well with the warm corn tortillas. Service was super friendly and attentive, regularly had our water filled, and our waiter was quick to give us his recommendations. The interior of this restaurant is dark, moody, and intimate, a great date spot or if you're wanting to impress someone out of town. read more

Checked out this restaurant while we were in Chicago since this place was one of the few restaurants that had reservations while we were in town for Labor Day. One of my favorite dish was the paella. We tried all the ceviches and I liked all of them except the ceviche cartetillero. I thought it wasn't flavorful enough. Tuna tartare was a hit. My friends enjoyed the pork belly and carne asada tacos. Drinks here were pretty good too. There is a super cute speakeasy downstairs that has great cocktails. I highly recommend checking that out after dinner. I would skip the dessert. read more

Made a reservation in advance. There were still plenty of open tables inside. The outside seating was full when we went around 6PM on a Saturday. The interior is very cozy. Felt like you had good privacy. Service was good. They explain the menu and gave recs and suggested portion sizes for each dish. For a table of 4, we ordered one app, on birria taco (makes 5 tacos), one ceviche, and two mains. The dishes felt a bit small when split but we were full by the end. No plate change between apps and mains though so I had a lot of cerviche juices on my plate while eating my paella. All the dishes have strong distinct flavors from each other which was nice. Each had lots of layers of spices and vegetables (peppers, tomatillos, etc). They also had Peruvian corn in their dishes! The colors were bright and fun. And the hot items came out hot and steamy (paella, rice, tortillas). My fav was the paella. I think it had a cheese which added a cozy, creamy flavor, almost cinnamon/nutmeg like. The tartare had a powder on top that added a nice spicy and tanginess I enjoyed. read more

Beyond the great food and drinks, the service was truly outstanding, attentive, friendly, and made the whole experience even better.

Very cozy vibes perfect for a winter evening. It was early dinner on a weeknight and service was quick and attentive. Every single thing we ordered was a slam dunk. The guacamole was a mind bender made at the table from a roasted avocado that looks like it still has the skin on! The guacamole was my 2 year olds favorite. The corn dessert was also a favorite with an interesting light airy texture over a denser cake and a sweet corn flavor. read more

Probably some of the most flavorful dishes I've had in a long time. Unreal atmosphere, so cool and cozy just a little loud but to be expected.

New spot that was up and down. First off they did a great job with the design and ambiance, it is a really beautiful spot with a basement speakeasy. However, it is LOUD, which makes it tough to have a nice intimate dinner. Food wise, it is pricey, and is certainly more of an out of the box presentation of the classics. The carne asada tacos were some of the best things I've tasted from the flavor, to the texture, to the spice from the salsa. Not a place I'll frequent but good nonetheless read more
