Fire, tradition, and community. Two weeks away.
On June 14, we gather on the patio for Barrio BBQ: Fuegos y Amigos, an afternoon celebrating the traditions, ingredients, and regional flavors that continue to shape Mexican cuisine.
Taking place during James Beard Awards weekend, this walk-around tasting experience brings together chefs and restaurants from across Chicago for an afternoon of live-fire cooking, regional Mexican flavors, and a shared celebration of community through food.
Expect food cooked over open flames, seasonal ingredients, refreshing beverages, and music throughout the afternoon.
More than a barbecue, Barrio BBQ is a celebration of community, collaboration, and the stories that connect us through food.
June 14 • 4–7 PM
Manchamanteles Patio
Advance tickets are available on Tock. Reservations are encouraged, as space is limited.

Honored to be recognized by Modern Luxury as one of Chicago’s Best Mexican Restaurants.
What started as a love letter to Baja street food and the energy of San Diego + Tijuana has turned into something truly special here in West Town.
Thank you to our incredible team, our guests, our community, and everyone who continues to support Diego. Every packed brunch, late-night taco run, happy hour, and shared table means the world to us.
Chicago, we’re just getting started. ❤️
