When it comes to exceptional food in Illinois, I hate to have to choose. Which will satisfy more — house-made Italian or classic American brisket? In a perfect world, a bit of both would be ideal. Even within the same genre of food, the array of techniques and nuances that exist between cultures, regions, and styles means there are endless dining possibilities that are limited only to a chef’s imagination. So when a new concept opened in my neighborhood in 2021 that melded a mix of Latin flavors, I wasn’t surprised when it gained a reputation for being the best Latin-fusion restaurant in Berwyn, Illinois.
