535 N Wells St, Chicago, IL 60654 · Mexican restaurant, Japanese restaurant, Peruvian restaurant · River North

Ambitious Peruvian-Mexican fusion with standout service and presentation, best for adventurous diners with a budget for premium small plates; value and service consistency can vary.

Our take

Matilda delivers solid A-grade performance through exceptional food quality—standout tuna tartare, lomo saltado, and plantain-chorizo tacos showcase genuine culinary creativity—paired with knowledgeable, personable service and appealing two-space design. However, inconsistent execution on seasoning and portions and occasional service delays at peak times prevent the higher distinction needed for grade A territory. The modern Peruvian-Mexican fusion concept delivers memorable moments for diners seeking adventurous flavors.

One caveat: Pricing is premium with portions that some find small
