Home of the World's Most Infamous Margaritas

In 1966, three sisters from San Luis Potosi, a vast Mexican city rich in tradition, opened the "El Jardin Restaurant" on Chicago's blustery North Side (located just a baseball's throw from the ivy walls of Wrigley Field.)  Armed only with a small grill, a tattered pool table and a treasure trove of delectable family recipes, the sisters created a restaurant that three generations later stands as one of Chicago's most popular eateries.

Translated in English, El Jardin means "The Garden."  From the very beginning, the restaurant has always had an outdoor garden for patrons to unwind, under the city's glow in a relaxing and friendly atmosphere.

Over the course of twenty-five years, the sisters kept busy over the grills, while the restaurant expanded four times to meet the demand of a ravenous public.  El Jardin had become a hot-spot for fun, festive meals and many family celebrations as well.

Today, the roots of the family tree have spread and third generations begin to expand.  Creating today  "El Jardin Norte."  We offer a Carne Asada (steak) menu as well the world's most infamous margaritas.  Catering is available for all sorts of special occasions and events.

El Jardin has remained a family tradition and has continually prided itself in serving delicious and authentic Mexican dishes, always with the family's love for good food and great service.
