"A young, high-energy crowd filters through this Bucktown hotspot night after night, their excitement matching the tenor of a kitchen cooking at full throttle. From dum biryani with lamb barbacoa to scallop ceviche packed into crispy fenugreek roti shells, this cross-cultural menu weaves Mexican and Indian narratives in a vibrantly convincing manner. Smooth chutneys, fiery salsas, and carefully calibrated spices make for bold plates that never shy away from flavor. Share everything, starting with a mezze of dips featuring housemade achar and salsa tatemado. The attractive dining room boasts exposed white brick, a banquette stretching the length of the space, and an open kitchen. Tight tables and loud beats further fuel a party that’s worth repeating." - Michelin Inspector
