Logan Square's Modern Antojería
Mi Tocaya Antojería on Logan Boulevard is Diana Dávila's modern Mexican — the antojitos format taken seriously, with regional sourcing, considered house-made tortillas, and an unusually thoughtful mezcal programme.
The cooking is contemporary Mexican with regional discipline: heritage corn for the masa, considered fillings, careful seasonal vegetable plates, and the broader Mexican small-plate tradition handled at restaurant standards.
What to Order
Antojitos — the small-plate format the room is built around. Tlayuda, quesadillas with heritage masa, seasonal vegetable preparations. The mezcal flight is a Mi Tocaya signature; the cocktail programme rewards an adventurous order.
The Format
The dining room is comfortable, considered, and unmistakably Logan Square in its register. The bar absorbs walk-ins; the dining room takes reservations.
Best Occasion: First Date
Mi Tocaya is a quiet Logan Square first-date win. The shareable format provides natural conversation; the mezcal programme provides drinks-pairing; the room is intimate; the price point allows a return visit.
