Location
Located at 2423 North Lincoln Street, across the intersection from DePaul’s newly renovated and expanded performance theater building and on the “famous alley where John Dillinger was killed” from the Biograph theater, the restaurant is certain to appeal to students, theatergoers and the ever-growing neighborhood of Lincoln Park.
With its fresh, light-hearted approach to Mexican cuisine/food, Takito Street will quickly become a neighborhood hangout. The restaurant space (created by local designer & co-partner Valerie Sanchez) will transport diners to a contemporary outdoor Mexican street market influenced by its theatre barrio. The back rooms of the restaurant will stream classic black and white cinema films on its walls. The interior artwork by local graffiti artist Gabriel Moskolis (Lymelite Studio), the large marquee, sleek bucket seat booths & vintage vespa complement what the Takito brand has been known as a leader in restaurant design.
