Chicago’s Essential Mexican Restaurants

"Chef Miguel Escobar and sous chef Carlos Cahue are the creative culinary engines behind this newish suburban ode to the comfort food of Huandacareo in Michoacan and Huitzuco in Guerrero (also the birthplace of chef Carlos Gaytán). In partnership with wine director Sergio Angel and chef Michael Lachowicz (Aboyer, George Trois), the pair deliver fun and thoughtful options like the chile relleno with pipián de hoja santa, a poblano pepper stuffed with beef hash, apple, pear almond and peach, pumpkin seed mole and warm tortillas." - Brenda Storch, Eater Staff
