We had a great meal at the Adobo Grill. The food is delicious and the staff warm/friendly. This is a perfect choice if you have tickets to see a comedy show at Second City.

Go here everytime I go to Chicago - best guac

Every time I visit Chicago, I try to take a trip here. Unfortunately there was fire damage last Thanksgiving so I intend to get back there this summer. The service is always great and I've never tasted better guac! The price range is really great too with yummy yummy margerita's!
