Frontera Grill $$$$$

Fantastic food and good service are two things you can expect at Frontera Grill. We had breakfast enchiladas that were flavorful and hearty. The order came with three enchiladas and black beans. Both were delicious. The black beans take the dish to a whole different level. The enchiladas came with their house made chorizo. They were excellent. We would have to agree with others regarding the 20% “ back of the house” gratuity. Having a suggested gratuity is one thing. Having a recommended gratuity with the added note that it doesn’t include a tip for your waiter seems over the top. If you need to charge more so you can pay your staff a “ living wage” as you indicated , then charge more, but don’t imply that it is up to your customers to determine if your staff deserves a living wage.

Fantastic food, great atmosphere, and top-notch service. I'm upset it took me 5 years of living in Chicago to finally try Frontera!! We came for...

I'm sorry to say, I'm three for three with Rick Bayless's restaurants. I've gone to two in L.A. and one in Chicago and all three were not good experiences....

A cool celebrity-chef restaurant with very nice decor. The food is tasty, interior Mexican, but it felt.... Incomplete. Mole is a very iconic, tasty, and...

We came on restaurant week and ordered the following: Appetizers: - Fresh Corn Tamales - Frontera Ceviche Between these two, the Ceviche were better. They...

Bit disappointing. Immediately got given outdated menus, which wasn't realized until we'd looked over it and tried to order. My appetizer got ordered, but the rest of the food wasn't on the menu anymore, so we had to look over the new one. Ended up that my appetizer showed up way before the other dishes, so I ate, then my husband's appetizer came out, so he ate, and then both entrees showed up not long after, missing a side dish we ordered (they didn't charge us for it, so there's that). All in all, a very frustrating ordering experience, especially considering (in our opinion) the old menu looked way better. The food was good. Nothing transcendent or worth a fine dining price, but not bad by any means. Notably, the tortilla soup was great, and I highly recommend that. Fruit water (blueberry lime that day) was really good too. Oh, and the people complaining about the 20% auto-gratuity clearly can't read. There's most of an entire menu page devoted to explaining it. Probably won't be returning, at least not until the menu changes a bit. The staff just seemed confused and disorganized, and honestly it just wasn't as good an experience as we were expecting.

Wow so delicious! This place is wonderful and worth the accolades. It was such a wonderful evening! A star off for service...removing plates between courses, providing utensils for guests to safely share dishes. Overall, service was a little inattentive. I understand the tight labor market so just some feedback. Fabulous otherwise and loved the cuisine!

Our entire family's favorite meal of our trip. The extremely attentive staff... the kids menu (yes, there's a kid's menu!), and the amazing food. Our...

Easily the best Tamales I've ever had. Wonderful texture and taste. Easy living cocktail was really good. Mushroom Tacos was so so.. But then i added some of the salsa the bartender have and man they changed the taste so much. Salsa made a huge difference and gave the necessary kick to make the dinner way better. Requested for a few chips to satisfy my after dinner snack craving and they made it happen. Overall was a great dinner on a Halloween night.

Very good food, great service, kind of expensive.
