Tanta Chicago Chicago

Gaston Acurio has over 60 restaurants which highlight different styles and levels of Peruvian cuisine. Tanta Chicago showcases the blend of Latin American, Asian and Spanish flavors that make up this dynamic cuisine. The bright, fresh, bold cebiches, the savory empanadas and refreshing and balanced pisco sours will transport you to Lima, Peru without having to pack a suitcase.
