"Patria Cocina in Grant Park is the kind of upbeat place to spread out over masa-thick sopes, juicy carne asada, and silky iced horchata lattes with your crew. The patio is big enough for the whole group, as is the brightly lit dining room. It all feels inviting, so it's easy to get comfortable gossiping while you dig into buttery salmon la parrilla and other bright flavors of the Jalisco coast. It’s a reliably great hangout where even a chaotic group dinner or brunch feels polished." - jacinta howard, juli horsford
