Cariño is shaking up Chicago’s fine dining scene by making dinner feel like a vibrant Latin-inspired party. Chef Norman Fenton’s creative tasting menu is a tribute to Latin American flavors, with dishes like huitlacoche ravioli in corn foam and playful twists on classics—think michelada oysters and chicharrón with esquites sauce. The lively counter seating lets you watch the kitchen in action, and the upbeat soundtrack keeps the energy high. If you’re looking for a splurge or a unique night out, Cariño’s $200 tasting menu or late-night taco omakase is a memorable way to celebrate Chicago’s food culture. Who’s up for a dinner party with a twist? #Food #ChicagoEats #FineDining
