SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 14

This Valentine’s Day, Tanta Chicago is turning up the flavor with a Peruvian-inspired dinner designed for sharing, connection, and celebration. Bold seafood, citrus, spice, and charcoal-driven plates set the tone for an evening that feels lively and delicious, without the clichés that usually follow February 14th.

Inspired by Peru’s rich culinary heritage and the country’s love for mealtime togetherness, our Valentine’s dinner brings seasonal ingredients, modern techniques, and vibrant textures to the table. Guests can expect a progression of thoughtful courses that move from bright to indulgent, from cold to warm, and from savory to sweet—with the kind of plating and energy that make dining out feel special.

What makes Valentine’s at Tanta stand out is the format itself: dishes built for the table, meant to be passed, tasted, compared, and shared. It’s food that invites conversation, that encourages lingering over cocktails, and that leaves room for a little romance without taking itself too seriously. Whether it’s your first Valentine’s together or simply an excuse to eat well on a winter night, consider this an invitation to celebrate the holiday with flavor.

At Tanta, we believe Valentine’s Day should feel indulgent and unpretentious, an evening you’ll actually look forward to savoring. Come for the seafood, stay for the char and citrus, and toast with a Pisco cocktail or two. This year, love tastes a lot like Peru.
