About this business
Frontera Grill is the sister establishment of the more well known, Topolobampo next door. Both restaurants are from the celebrated Chef Rick Bayless, however this spot focuses more on casual dining. On weekends, Frontera is always packed, but if you are lucky, you can grab a small stool at the bar with drinks and appetizers before the hostess finds your table. Basic margaritas are quite pricey, but one usually packs enough top shelf tequila to sate the palate before the food arrives. Some of the options on the menu include e... read more

Amazing service and authentic food... I hardly go out to eat Mexican food, I’m ready to come back!
Had a wonderful first experience! We enjoyed the spicy & regular guacamole. Our server was very helpful & prompt with all requests... for a party of 8! They even have gluten free chips & menu options. Steak tacos were delicious! The limeade drink was quite tart, will try something else next time! Would recommend to others & hope to go back soon!
We had a great time! Atmosphere was good and food,delicious. We’ll come back for sure.
Fantastic food! Flavors were rich and authentic. Wonderful staff as well. Will definitely be returning again when in Chicago!!
The food was delicious 😋. The seating not that good it was to small
Service was excellent and we had a lovely dinner Authentic. Authentic.
Creative food & coctails. All very well e executed
Had supper there tonite as we walked in I came face to face with Rick Bayless the chef and owner of the resto I said hello and said to him we met in Washington when he received the Julia Childs award he just looked at me and walked away... I knew of course he would not remember but it was so rude will not be going back because it was too noisy we could not even talk to each other and the tables are so close .....the food was just ok....
I have been going to Frontera since the late 80's when no one even knew anything about it......a true hidden gem. I went recently and the menu and food for dinner were nothing special. I was sooo disappointed 😔 Maybe I had the wrong thing: steak tacos, gaucomole. The margaritas with 100 proof Agave Tequila was the only "saving grace" for an $80 bill! Everyone there wasn't even from Chicago, they were from out of town, who heard about Bayless from tv or friends.
