La Cazuela

***** (5 stars)

It’s not fancy, just a store front, and there’s no guarantee you can order in English, but pointing works great, and the food is delicious. Fresh chips and two very different and tasty salsas with just the right kick will show up when you sit down. This is especially the place for fish, prepared in many different ways. My favorite is one of the simplest, Torta de Pescado, a fish sandwich that is almost criminally inexpensive. The delicious fresh made guacamole is also a steal. Highly recommended.

The Stained Glass is one of my favorite restaurants in the whole world, and we’ve dined at some of the best. I always visit at least TWICE if I’m in the Chicago area. We love being able to put together our own custom flights of half glasses of wine, and then match them with several small courses of appetizers. The shared appetizers such as the charcuterie are particularly good. Servers are knowledgeable and friendly, and the ambiance is great. A neighborhood gem.
