このコンテンツについて
Chicago is a city that eats like it means it, and in 2025 its culinary scene is in full swagger, powered by boundary-pushing chefs who treat tradition less like a rulebook and more like a launchpad.
In West Town, Maxwells Trading, highlighted by Chicago Magazine, shows how Chicago chefs are remixing global flavors with Midwestern sensibility. Chef Erling Wu-Bower sends out plates that taste like a culinary world tour routed through a produce stand, layering bright acidity, smoke, and crunch over peak-season vegetables and sustainably sourced seafood. It is the sort of place where a listener might start with something deeply familiar, then realize halfway through the meal they have wandered into thrillingly strange territory.
Down in Pilsen, Mariscos San Pedro channels coastal Mexico with swagger: whole fried snapper arrives crackling and bronzed, flanked by fresh salsas and handmade tortillas that capture the city’s Mexican heritage in every pliant, fragrant fold, as detailed by Chicago Magazine. Brunch there leans on pastries like guava cream cheese doughnuts, proof that Chicago’s sweet tooth is as adventurous as its savory side.
The tasting-menu crowd is buzzing about Cariño in Uptown, where chef Norman Fenton stages an intimate ode to coastal Latin America. According to Chicago Magazine, only six tables get in on a procession of artfully plated dishes that trace stories from Mexico to Tulum, turning the dining room into a tiny theater of lime, chile, and ocean salinity.
Innovation burns brightest—literally—at Fire in the West Loop, the Alinea Group’s live-fire playground. The room revolves around a roaring hearth draped with leeks, pineapples, and herbs slowly smoking above the flames, a vivid reminder that Chicago’s cutting edge still respects the primal allure of char and embers.
Yet the year’s defining story, as Resy reports, is the rise of deeply personal, independent concepts. At Boonie’s Filipino Restaurant in North Center, chef Joseph Fontelera frames Filipino dishes as an exploration of diaspora, turning flavors like adobo and calamansi into narrative devices. In Lincoln Park, Dimmi Dimmi leans into Italian American nostalgia—tavern-style pizza, red-sauce comfort—but sharpens it with chef Matt Eckfeld’s fine-dining pedigree. Over in Uptown, YooYee specializes in Sichuan heat, serving hand-pulled noodles and mapo tofu that hum with numbing mala spice, a testament to Chicago’s appetite for regional Chinese cooking.
What makes Chicago singular is this collision of soulful storytelling, immigrant traditions, and Midwest ingredients, all filtered through a blue-collar, no-pretense attitude. Listeners should pay attention because in Chicago, dinner is never just dinner; it is biography, geography, and sheer pleasure, all on one table..
