Costera Cocina Tulum occupies a corner of Chicago's Fulton Market District, a neighborhood defined by ambitious, design-forward restaurant openings. It fits right in: a polished, photogenic room paired with attentive service, priced at the top end of the market.
Regulars and first-timers tend to describe the experience in similar terms — strong atmosphere, warm hospitality, and a setting that photographs well — while conversation about the food itself is more mixed, with some finding it authentic and worth the price and others feeling the kitchen doesn't always match the room around it.
