Table for 8 at Brasero, a South American restaurant in West Town. The restaurant is run by chef John Manion, who also runs El Che Bar in the West Loop and Babygold BBQ in suburban Berwyn.

The restaurant was featured in the Infatuation, and was profiled on Block Club Chicago and WGN-TV.

From the Infatuation:

"Brasero seems to specialize in throwing a party every night. This Latin American spot in West Town is great for upbeat get-togethers of all sizes, with a mix of shareable dishes like fried quail and grilled half lobster, and catchy Bossa nova music that practically begs you to show up with the best gossip to match the secluded space and good-times vibe. But Brasero’s food is equally fun, with nearly everything nailing a balance between sweet and spicy. Pork ribs are covered in guava and hot sauce, a combination so good you might show off any rogue stains afterward. The moqueca has the perfect amount of chili to enhance the coconut broth, mahi mahi, and shrimp. Whatever you order, you’ll all leave with a light cologne of smoke, thanks to the wood-fire grill in the back and dessert sparklers that constantly float around."
