Was Jen Norton at Amaru a mag?
This is one of my favorite restaurants in Chicago, the prices are very good for the quality of food you're getting. The owner checks to ensure every dish that is sent out is perfection. The quality is unbeatable, this place is truly a hidden gem. I would suggest buying the whole kitchen a round of drinks when you're dining there, the staff would really appreciate it and it makes their day/night that much better! View all feedback.
What Kelly Ramirez dislikes about Amaru:
We arrived without a reservation and unfortunately couldn't get a table. Sitting at the bar was fine, but there were quite a few empty tables available. I understand they must have had their reasons. The food was good, and the drinks looked amazing and tasted delicious. I plan to return to try more dishes, and next time, I'll definitely make a reservation. View all feedback.

Their grilled octopus and signature cocktails are outstanding! The service is excellent, even during peak hours!
We were a party of three enjoying tapas together. Our server was fantastic—very helpful in spacing out our orders, and she was friendly and attentive. The standout dish of the evening was definitely the octopus, though the heirloom tomatoes and tres leches cake were also delightful runners-up. The atmosphere was lively!
Very friendly and helpful staff. Had delicious appetizers and a wonderful meal. The happy hour mojitos were wonderful and the dessert was top notch. Highly recommend!!
