Definitely come here! The tasting menu impressed omnivores and vegetarians alike.
There were too many delicious options, each with surprising flavors and killer presentations. We aren't dessert people, but both options truly blew us away.
The drinks were all winners, and the whole staff was so lovely. Everyone was supremely helpful and made us feel welcome.
It was a beautiful space with a nice variety of parties. Proxi is an easy recommendation for many many occasionally.

[Celiac - gluten free review] Delicious Asian fusion tapas place, excellent flavors. I was a bit nervous going to a new place but I was reassured before I even stepped foot in the restaurant. I had sent an email to understand what could be made gluten free on the menu and they responded thoroughly, item by item. When I arrived at the restaurant, they gave me a personal menu that had been marked by the chef, detailing what I couldn’t have and what had cross contamination (mostly a la carte). I could still choose from about 70% of the menu and we chose all dishes from the a la carte. We started with the carrot dip, they substituted bread for crudités - it was delicious and smoky. Then we had the crispy rice crepes which were delicious and my favorite for sure - they had shrimp and pork belly. Our main was the Indonesian chicken and it was so moist and delicious. For dessert, we got the corn cake thing which was good. Highly recommend for a nice dinner!
Really delicious tapas/fusion spot. We sat on the patio for a more casual experience, enjoying summer cocktails and several dishes to share. It's hard to find restaurants with truly unique and interesting dishes, and this is definitely one. Everything was very thoughtful and delicious. We particularly enjoyed the endive and apple salad and the tempura elotes.
I don’t know where to begin… great atmosphere and service per expectations. The tasting menu though?! The starter Poached King Salmon Salad with
young coconut, trout roe and peanut was one of the best things I have ever eaten period. Let alone tonight. The true stars ( other than seeing the chef and having Andrew wave at me) were the Pumpkin & Goat Cheese Tamale
With a pasilla-piloncillo sauce and pepitas as well as the main dish of Smoked Prime Short Rib with a mole coloradito, black bean and charred onion. Mole ice cream also an absolute must. I hope to one day be able to be a diner of Sepia, their sister Michelin Star restaurant. But this was quite the introduction to Chef Andrew. I can’t stress enough how important it is to visit this restaurant if you’ve never been. Can not preach on a higher podium.

We’ve been searching for a new go to restaurant in Chicago for a while with limited success. Had some nice meals but nothing that would bring us back for a second visit until now. We had a wonderful delicious meal last weekend. A creative mix of Mediterranean, Indian, Mexican, East Asian cuisine that hit the mark on every dish. We went the a la carte route but would gladly try the Chefs Menu next time. Hard to pick the best dishes but I’d say the Mushrooms, Pork Belly, Smoked carrot dip, and Hawaiian bread top my list. But really I don’t think you can go wrong anywhere. Was able to snag a last minute seat at the counter which is always my favorite. Appreciated watching the crisp efficient professionalism of Chef Zimmerman. Knowledgeable and friendly service topped off a wonderful evening.
Atmosphere was lovely and the food and drinks are delicious. We did the wine pairing menu. Small plates, big flavor. Fusion cuisine can sometimes be a hit or miss but this was a lovely experience. 10 out of 10
Most of the dishes are decent looking and taste. But they are all small plate, not for a big feast. We didn’t go with the fixed menu with $75 per person since there are a lot of items we are not interested. Their cocktails are not bad. Service is good. Favorite of the night is the foie gras buns. Tasty and juicy.
Great food and wonderful service! Absolutely love the tempura elotes. The first time I ate at Proxi was years ago, and I've had fond memories of the elotes since--they're that good! A lot of Indian inspired dishes that were delicious. Several good vegetarian options as well.
