La Mejikana
About
A casual Pilsen Mexican restaurant on Ashland known for its dairy-free soft-serve margaritas, in strawberry, mango or a swirl of both, finished with Tajín.
What to order: A soft-serve margarita (strawberry, mango or the swirl), and the burger topped with a crispy chorizo patty
A casual Mexican restaurant on Ashland Avenue in Pilsen, best known for something you won't find at the classic margarita bars: soft-serve margaritas. They're dairy-free, swirled out of a machine in strawberry, mango or both, and finished with a hit of Tajín. It's a fun, low-key alternative to a frozen margarita, and the kitchen backs it up. The burger, stacked with guacamole, a fried egg, grilled onions, chihuahua cheese and a crispy chorizo patty, is a real reason to stay for dinner.
