About this restaurant

  • Good for groups
  • Great for creative cocktails
  • Good for special occasions
Tabu breaks from tradition with Multi-Regional Latin inspired cuisine and cocktails, in a unique and eclectic West Loop space. Our menu defies culinary classification delivering vibrant dishes that draw influence from the cuisines of Mexico, Spain, Colombia, and more. Tabu’s food offerings were designed to pair perfectly with its tantalizing beverage program, which is set to boast the largest collection of Mezcals and Tequilas in Chicago. Tabu’s interiors combine a certain sophistication and playfulness, with a ceiling adorned with nearly 10,000 individually cut ropes, enigmatic pop art murals, and a sunken cocktail lounge that begs you to order just one more round. Tabu’s food offerings were designed to pair perfectly with its tantalizing beverage program, which is set to boast the largest collection of Mezcals and Tequilas in Chicago.

Tabu has a No-Show policy and Same-day cancellation policy of $10 per person.

    Our family went today for the brunch party on Sunday. Food, drinks, & service were all amazing! Our server, Jessica, was very attentive. The menu is crafted very well to enhance the flavors of the dishes. The vibe during the brunch party was fun and lively!! Everyone was dancing while eating their meals! 😊

    Love Tabú. However the music was extremely loud for just mimosas at 10am. We’re not there to rave that early LOL! Otherwise Tabú is one of the most beautifully themed restaurants I’ve been to in quite some time. Food is delicious and the portion sizes are AWESOME! It’s not one of those fancy places that charge 25$ for “handhelds” and give you 1 taco.
    TabuResponded on March 22, 2025
    Thank you Luke for visiting us and for taking the time to leave a detailed review. We really appreciate such kind words from our guests. We apologize if the vibes weren't all what you expected, but we will definitely use all feedback to continue to improve our overall guest experience. Thanks again for everything, we hope to see you again soon.
