Frontera Grill, a renowned restaurant in Chicago, offers a diverse menu of flavorful dishes, including shrimp, chicken, and mole specials. The restaurant's ambiance is described as cool, and the service is praised as top-notch. Customers enjoy the attentive staff and delicious desserts like flan and tres leches. However, the creamy white sauce on the chicken is not a universal favorite. The different salsas provided can be quite spicy, so diners should be prepared. While the location is prime, parking in the River North area can be a challenge. Wheelchair accessibility is good, with an elevator to reach the private room upstairs.
The restaurant has received positive reviews, with customers praising the exceptional mole dishes and the reasonable prices for a downtown Chicago establishment. Highlights include the slow-roasted pork ribs in mole sauce, the "deconstructed chelada" with a shot of mezcal, Tecate, and tomato juice, and the heavenly tres leche cake. One customer also enjoyed the special short rib mole, which had a wonderful complex flavor, and the blue corn tortillas. However, some diners felt that the prices were a bit high for the overall experience.
