at the root of imee’s are recipes from three remarkable women:

My mother
My maternal grandmother, sitto,
And my paternal grandmother, tata 

We carry these remarkable women with us in our logo, with the four leaves of the lemon representing myself, my mother, and my two grandmothers.

I feel fortunate to have inherited their deep-rooted tradition of home-cooking. weaving a third generation of flavors together with theirs to create the menu for imee’s is the realization of a lifelong dream. 

Imee’s will be a unique place where chicago residents and visitors can experience these authentic flavors, as well as a piece of my culture. 

Our healthy and authentic dishes are the perfect addition to any gathering of friends and family, including bridal showers, birthday parties, tailgating, and more.
