    I was excited to finally get a chance to try Mirra and came by with a couple of friends for dinner. I started with the Mezcal Negroni which was tasty. I enjoyed the mezcal mango combo and it was a fairly light and refreshing drink. For food we shared the Roasted Winter Squash Chaat, Crispy Taco, Lamb Barbacoa Biryani with a Roti Seal, and Duck Carnitas. The crispy taco and duck carnitas were my favorite of the night. The crispy tacos reminded me of the seafood / ceviche tacos I've had in Mexico City and the scallops were really fresh. We added on a taco as it's 2 per order typically. The duck carnitas were great as well with pressed duck legs served with a green tomatillo sauce and tortillas. The carnitas shredded easily and I liked how crispy the outside edges were. The toasted winter squash was pretty good as well but the lamb biryani was a letdown. As one of their signature dishes, the roti seal was fun but didn't add any flavor and was pretty dry to eat. The biryani itself was bland and lamb a bit dry. There are so many great spots for biryani and this one was just ok. Unfortunately overall the food didn't really interest me. I've had better Mexican and Indian food elsewhere and the promise of fusion dishes ended up to be a letdown.

    When your out and about trying new restaurants, there is a "Law" of averages that takes place - Out of ten restaurant tries: 2 will be Excellent 2 will be Just Okay 6 will be good to very good (Exceptional and Duds are rare) Tonight at Mirra, I got one of those "rare" exceptional's, and it hit me like a brick! Everything going on here at Mirra was pretty damn exceptional! The service, the ambience, the menu, the taste palette, just magnificent. I have been hearing a lot of monologue about Mirra and how outstanding it is. So tonight was a "I've gotta know" night and I was certainly NOT disappointed. I ordered: * Mirra Mezze - which was Housemade Achar, Salsa Tatemado, Sikil Pak, Guacamole, Tlayudas & Papads - Stunning * Crispy Taco - with Hudson Bay Scallops, Mexican Green Curry, Nopales Pico, Crispy Fenugreek Roti - one of the best tacos I've ever had * Skull Island Prawn Chaat - which consisted of U8 Grilled Prawns, Chaat Yogurt, Cilantro-Mint Chutney, Salsa Negra - you've never had peel and eat shrimp done this was - unbelievably unique and delicious * Off Color Mexican Beer made specifically for tacos What I had here tonight for dinner was a blend of Mexican food with India flavors. Everything just worked so well here at Mirra, 5 Stars were not enough for this restaurant!

    Finally got to try Mirra and it definitely lived up to the hype! Indian-Mexican fusion isn't something I thought I needed to try, but clearly I was mistaken. Everything about this place was a yes. Bollywood music, check. Excellent, friendly service, check. Food that's flavorful and spicy? CHECK! Though, nothing was overly spicy. The presentation and the blend of spices for each dish was just lovely. We loved the lamb tacos (crispy cheese!) and the duck tacos (so, so, so tender). The Carne Apache Papad was soooo good. I could've had 5 of those! And of course, the lamb biriyani was just incredibly flavorful and the lamb was tender and juicy. It was also beautifully presented and we couldn't get enough. The only dish we didn't really care for was the Mirra Salad. It wasn't bad, it just wasn't as amazing as everything else we had. I can see why this place is a Bib and I'm a fan for sure!

    We came into Mirra for brunch - the overall experience was solid, but I wouldn't say it was something I'd go out of my way for. The service was decent, as was the cold brew and chai. The food itself was also great - the Vada pav breakfast sandwich and chiliquiles were amazing. They had some really interesting menu items but many of them were seafood or beef - I do wish some of their more unique items (e.g. idli Benedict) had some veg options. The portions were large and food was good. Would be interested in trying dinner here.

    Mirra in Bucktown is such a fun and refreshing concept--an Indian-Mexican fusion spot that really leans into its vibe. The Bollywood music adds a unique, energetic touch that instantly sets the mood and makes it feel like more than just a dinner--it's an experience. The service was also solid--attentive and friendly without being overbearing. The margaritas were definitely a highlight--perfectly balanced, flavorful, and honestly some of the best part of the evening. The food overall is good, with a few standout dishes, though some items felt a bit average. We enjoyed the roti quesadilla the most, followed by the scallops khavsa. The beet salad was just average. That said, the atmosphere, music, and drinks more than make up for it. If you're looking for a lively night out with great cocktails and a unique cultural twist, Mirra is absolutely worth checking out.

    Mirra was a solid spot overall. The highlight of my night was definitely the lamb biriyani. It was perfectly cooked, packed with flavor, and easily my favorite dish we ordered. However, I would probably pass on the crispy taco next time. The scallop filling was good, but the shell kind of ruined it for me. I was also really excited to try the rasmalai tres leches but it ended up being just okay. The texture was more crumbly, almost like a cupcake, which caught me off guard and was not what I was expecting.

    Came here last night for my birthday along with my brother who has a birthday in the same weekend. We had a wonderful experience. The ambience and the service were incredible. Top notch for sure. Some of the dishes that really stood out to me were the taquitos, the octopus, the scalp crispy tacos, and all of the cocktails. Everything else is very good tasting. It's tough to make a fusion restaurant with two very distinct cultures, both filled with very potent flavors. I felt they did a very good job, and I would recommend it to others who would want to stop by. If you are sensitive to spices, though, you may want to be careful on what you order on the menu. (I loved it all, but my local Chicago mother had a difficult time with some of the dishes.)

    4.5 stars rounded up. Got to try this absolute gem and try their counter tasting menu. Flavors were spot on (although the tortilla got a little repetitive), service was uneven (chef was engaging but other servers clearly were new / didn't know the menu well) and drinks were ok. Top dishes of the night were the duck, the seafood kabob and surprisingly the beef tongue, which I was hesitant to try but it was so delicate and flavorful. It was a cozy night and the restaurant was packed on a Thursday night. Will definitely be back to try the rest of the menu.

    Mirra might just have the friendliest and most attentive staff I've experienced in the city! From the second you take a seat in this vibrant and cozy restaurant, the staff is there to make your experience amazing. Our server not only helped us pick out some delicious food items, but he assured us that everything here was cooked with love. Our water glasses never went empty, and the table was cleared and cleaned in between several dishes. They clearly take service seriously!! As far as the food goes - everything we tried was amazing! My two favorite dishes were the chaas aguachile and the crispy tacos! The whole fish was also a masterpiece! I can't wait to go back!

    Mirra is a true culinary experience from the minute you sit down. We came for the brunch. The place is cozy well designed and beautiful spot to hang out We started with their delicious and tasty coffee along with pastries. Unbelievable!!! Our breakfast plates were tasty well made and absolutely heaven in your mouth. And don't miss the cocktails. This place is a true good paradise.

    When Mexican and Indian flavors are fused with real intention, Mirra becomes something truly special. Located in Bucktown, Mirra is a relatively new, chef-driven restaurant that feels exactly like what you want from Chicago's dining scene right now. It's a smaller, single-room space--nicely appointed but not flashy--and the hospitality hits immediately when you walk in. This isn't a big restaurant group or a concept chasing trends. It's talented chefs and mixologists who've clearly put in the reps, now running their own place with confidence and care. What really sets Mirra apart is the fusion itself. This isn't surface-level or gimmicky "slap a curry on a taco" fusion. The Mexican and Indian influences are deeply integrated, to the point where reading the menu is genuinely intriguing--you're not always sure what something will taste like until it hits the table. And almost every time, it lands. We went for brunch, and while there aren't many brunch reviews yet, I'd be shocked if any service here isn't excellent. Service * Warm, polished hospitality from the moment you walk in * Staff clearly knows the menu and how to pace a shared meal * Attentive without hovering Food * Idli Crab Benedict - curried crab with beautiful spice balance; small, shareable, and a great opener * Vada Pav - a street-food-inspired breakfast sandwich; bold spices, comforting and creative * Huevos Rancheros - infused with Indian spices and served with house-made roti; familiar yet completely transformed * French Toast - outstanding, layered with Indian dessert spices; rich without being heavy * Portions are designed to share--three to four dishes is perfect for two people Drinks & Dessert * Espresso Martini - well executed * Mimosa - classic and clean * Guava Margarita - bright and refreshing * Rasmalai Tres Leches (to-go) - an inspired mashup that absolutely works and finishes the meal strong Verdict Mirra is a standout. The flavors are bold, thoughtful, and unlike anything else in the city right now. It's chef-driven, genuinely creative, and executed at a high level without feeling pretentious. A five-star experience and exactly the kind of restaurant you want to see thriving in a Chicago neighborhood.

    My goal is to try 50 new Chicago restaurants in 2025! Restaurant: 65/50 Month tried: November Favorite dish: Chaas aguachile, pulpo ala nayarit, fideos seco Welcome to one of the newest Chicago Bib Gourmands! We were so excited to score a reservation at Mirra. It absolutely lived up to the hype it's been getting! I don't know that I've ever had Indian/Mexican fusion, but they nailed it. There were so many of the deep flavors of Indian food paired with light seafood and sauces of Mexican cuisine. Great cocktails as well. Our server was fantastic and mapped out an entire meal for us because we had no idea where to start. We swapped out a few things with others, but her recommendations were perfect. My favorite dish was the Fideos Seco - a squash blossom pasta dish with a curry-like sauce that was fire. We also loved the aguachile and the octopus. Honestly I would recommend coming with 4+ people, and just ordering the entire menu. There is still so much we wanted to try! We will be back.

    Indian Mexican fusion, definitely bold flavors. Having said that I feel I'm from 80s mixing to cuisines is a no-no, the chef has done a really good job of mixing the two closely associated cultures in curating his dishes. It's a small plates restaurant so per person I would say three dishes and including one entrée. We ordered a lot of food that didn't fit in the two people table. Which helped us pace out our evening. I like the fact, we do have a lot of food options and a variety to choose from vegetarian and meat alternatives. Lamb biryani was presented very well, the lamb was too tender. It was just melt in your mouth.. Ambience was too dark however, I felt it matched with the vibe.

    Disappointing brunch, and not in a fun "oh well" way--more in a "how did this go so wrong?" way. I…read moreordered the Uttapam expecting those savory, thick, veggie‑topped rice‑and‑lentil pancakes a Google search described. Instead, I got something thin, lukewarm, and flavorless. If there were Thai chilies involved, they were absolutely in the witness protection program. The coconut chutney was good but competed for attention with the bland pancakes. The pancakes were crying for some kind of vegetable topping, some heft, some flavor, and some heat. The mimosa drink was both too sweet and too pricey, like it was designed for someone who forgot to read the menu before ordering (me). I came in with high expectations based on the reviews; I left wishing I'd microwaved an Amy's Tofu Scramble.

Interesting fusion combos that sounded promising, but it just missed the mark for me. I loved the crust for the calzone. It was really good. But the butter chicken didn't have any flavor so it got lost in the crust. I liked the Marry Me cabbage, but it didn't blow sunshine up my skirt. The almonds were a nice added crunch though. They gave the cabbage much needed texture. I think my favorite was the pig cheeks and grits. The meat was perrrfect. Sitting on creamy grits, every bite was delicious. Loved the ice cream sandwiches but found the chai leches cake really bland. It lacked the sweetness you want after a meal. But if you prefer your desserts understated, you might love it Loved my blackberry crumble cocktail. It was a suggestion by my server and she was right. I wouldn't go out of my way for this restaurant. It was definitely a "one and done" for me. I didn't dislike it by any means at all, it just wasn't worth the 26 min it took to find a parking spot. With that in mind, take the L and/or walk. Don't do as I did and drive. It's all permit parking around there.
