Casa Chi sits inside the InterContinental Chicago Magnificent Mile in Streeterville, a Nikkei concept from Chef Richard Sandoval blending traditional Japanese technique with Peruvian flavor. The name nods to the idea of an "Earth House," with smoke, fire, and earth running through the room via mezcal-based cocktails and interactive hot stone cooking at the table.
The format is cocktail-forward and shareable rather than a straight coursed menu, built for groups looking to pass plates around the table. It's developed a reputation locally as a special-occasion destination, with regulars pointing to consistent food quality and service alongside a brunch and happy hour following.
