Restaurante Cuetzala

"When you walk into this small, casual sit-down spot, you’ll be greeted by vibrant walls depicting the Mexican countryside, an arched ceiling with paintings of birds, and plenty of colorful papel picado. It’s also where you can find some of the best Mexican food in Rogers Park. Restaurant Cuetzala’s menu is full of delicious dishes like juicy carne asada tacos, caldo de res with a light, flavorful broth and tender pieces of beef, or their enchiladas covered in a spicy mole. The space only has a handful of tables, but it’s usually not too busy, so grabbing a spot is fairly easy." - john ringor, veda kilaru
