Frontera Grill

Frontera Grill

Frontera Grill is a gourmet Mexican restaurant in Chicago, Illinois. It is owned by Rick Bayless. It opened in March 1987 and is located at 445 N. Clark Street in Chicago's River North neighborhood. It offers a menu of traditional and contemporary Mexican dishes, updated monthly.

Frontera's sister restaurant, Topolobampo, also owned by Rick Bayless, shares the same building (they have the same front door) and bar, but offers a more upscale menu and ambiance.

In 1994, Frontera Grill was ranked the world's third-best casual dining restaurant by the "International Herald Tribune".
