Irazu Costa Rican Restaurant is a Latin American restaurant in Chicago, Illinois that opened in 1990. It is located on Milwaukee Avenue in the Bucktown/Wicker Park neighborhood on Chicago's north side. The restaurant takes its name from the Irazú volcano in Costa Rica.[1]

The menu offers Costa Rican sandwiches, traditional dishes, burritos, and non-alcoholic drinks, and milkshakes.[2] Owner Henry Cerdas described it as "an overlap of Mexican and South American food."[3]

Décor

Anna Maria Barry-Jester of FiveThirtyEight's Life blog described the décor as "A beautiful outdoor patio strung with lights and murals of volcanic scenes at indoor tables are the superficial draw. A chalkboard next to my table listed the top 10 sites to visit in Costa Rica, and the tables were covered in a particular red plastic that had me wondering if I’d been magically transported to Central America."[4]
