Chile Toreado

Helmed by restauranteur Jaime Sotelo, an alum of Chicago's fine dining scene and Rick Bayliss collaborator, Chile Toreado bridges Sotelo's childhood experiences of fresh, wholesome food at his grandmother's farm in Mexico with innovative new approaches to Mexican-American cuisine (as well as lots of favorites like caldos, tortas, tacos and more).

Chile Toreado is a true local family restaurant, with Sotelo's wife, Lorena, and daughter, Yailin, working hand-in-hand through all operations to create some of Chicago's finest Mexican food. The family lives nearby as longtime residents of the McKinley Park neighborhood.
