I recently hosted my friends birthday dinner at Shaman on a Wednesday evening. We had about 25 people and we rented out the entire place! Reserving the dinner was very easy and the owner was very responsive to my requests and needs. The entire staff helped me set up for the birthday and as guest started to arrive they were very helpful in taking peoples coats and getting everyone a fresh beverage. For dinner we had a set menu with I think close to 6 courses and every items was absolutely delicious, there was not an empty stomach in the room. Shaman is BYOB so my guests enjoyed brining in the beverage of choice! The pictures on the website is very similar to what the space looks like and I loved the exposed brick walls. Overall I am looking forward to my next visit and trying more of the menu options! I would def hold another private party there and or attend when I want a yummy meal out! Also you must try the guacamole...some of the best in town!
The food here, small plates of gourmet Mexican food, is incredible. And because the menu changes on a monthly basis, it's always a new experience. Of course, there are staples on the menu that never change as well. The servers have always been super friendly and accommodating with alchohol (It's BYOB). So glad this place opened up!
We enjoyed another meal at Shaman, trying the hen this time. The food is so good here, with many flavors to tantalize the taste buds. I love the owner, she is a sweetie and took real good care of our requests. This is by far, my favorite restaurant in Chicago. It also helps that it's a BYOB as my family can drink copious amounts. We had the Sangria mix and brought our wine. Now I'm hooked on the Sangria. Can't wait to return.
