Located in the heart of River North at the prominent corner of Clark & Kinzie St. and in the same building as DineAmic Group's Italian concept Siena Tavern, comes Barrio. Barrio is a creative take on traditional Mexican fare with pan-Latin and American influences. The 6,000-square-foot restaurant seats 200 people and offers a variety of dining options including bar seating and private dining. The kitchen is helmed by ""Top Chef"" alum, Chef Katsuji Tanabe, who has created a plethora of options for just about every patron. The menu incorporates a shared-plate format offering locally sourced, sustainable ingredients with an emphasis on organic, as well as paleo and gluten-free options.
