We are thrilled to welcome you back to restaurant dining inside or on our patio!Opened in the 1960s by Ike Sewell, better known for inventing ‘Chicago Style Deep-Dish Pizza’ at nearby Pizzeria Uno, we quickly became one of the most popular places for Mexican food in Chicago. The atmosphere is warm and inviting. Su Casa is truly a little slice of Mexico planted in the heart of a great city.We are located in a converted 1867 carriage house, which adds plenty of character to your experience as you dine on traditional, Mexican fare. The burritos are not to be missed, and neither are the margaritas.
