Chilam Balam is a small/quaint restaurant with delicious food however, many rules. You cannot drink your own byob or order anything until everyone in your party arrives.

We came to this restaurant and were so excited to try because it was BYOB…. only to be told you have to order 2 PLATES per person to partake in this. We came a party of 6 and the plates were quite pricey. Being told we had to order 2 minimum per person was not it….as we politely left, the hostess seemed unimpressed. This policy should be on the website. Food looked delicious, but service from hostess felt unwelcoming and strict.
Amazing food and friendly owner! The coconut braise pork shoulder was incredible, so was the skirt steak and the ceviche. Best meal my wife and I have had in a long time and definitely a hidden gem in Chicago. Absolutely coming back here!
