Canton Regio in Pilsen is a rustic BYOB hotspot serving up outstanding grilled meats and homemade tortillas, all wrapped in a vibrant and lively atmosphere.
"Owners of famed Nuevo Leon opened their Mexican restaurant shortly after Nuevo was decimated in a fire last year. Open flames and mesquite grilled meats rule here, and as an added bonus the staff was brought over from the previous restaurant." - Faust
"During dinner, this Pilsen spot focuses on grilled meat, but it does a fantastic all-day Mexican breakfast, too. Order the chilaquiles (we like adding the well-seasoned and perfectly cooked carne asada) or the chicharrones with scrambled eggs, both of which come with delicious rice and beans. The space looks like a hybrid of a rustic barn and an old church, with vaulted ceilings and saddles on the wall. And if your weekdays generally involve eight hours of sitting in a cubicle, the atmosphere here will be a nice change of pace." - sam faye, adrian kane, john ringor, veda kilaru
"Canton Regio in Pilsen is one of our favorite spots for a fun group dinner, affordable or otherwise. This Mexican restaurant looks like a cross between a barn and an old church, with vaulted ceilings and wagon wheels on the wall. The menu focuses on grilled meat, which means you can easily share things like steaks, fajitas, and brochetas of chicken or shrimp. And because this place is BYOB, you won’t feel obligated to do a cost-benefit analysis of everyone’s margarita consumption like a deranged accountant." - adrian kane, john ringor
"Canton Regio, Pilsen. Owners of famed Nuevo Leon opened their Mexican restaurant shortly after Nuevo was decimated in a fire last year. Open flames and mesquite grilled meats rule here, and as an added bonus the staff was brought over from the previous restaurant."
"The city also listed Pilsen Mexican stalwart Canton Regio as a restaurant that allegedly allowed indoor service. Earlier this week, Canton Regio announced that it was closed until further notice." - Ashok Selvam
