Mercadito

Opening tomorrow, this NYC Mexican institution's first Chicago outpost has a vibrant Aztec-themed mural above plush banquettes at which to eat tacos with a modern flair (pastor with grilled pineapple; shrimp with garlic chipotle sauce and diced avocado) along with an intriguing variety of guacamoles (mango with jicama; cinnamon-spiced pumpkin with serranos), a selection of ceviches, and a wide-ranging list of nearly 100 tequilas -- try them all and win a nagging feeling that that dude at the bar has been eyeing your girlfriend. And you should fight him. Right now.
