Chicago’s food scene just scored big: two local spots, Mirra and Pizz’amici, landed on Esquire’s list of America’s Best New Restaurants for 2025. Mirra is wowing diners with globally inspired flavors in every bite, while Pizz’amici is already famous for its thin, chewy crust and sweet-zingy sauce—there’s often a line out the door! With so many restaurants closing in their first few years, it’s awesome to see these places thrive. Have you been yet, or do you have another new favorite in Illinois that deserves a shoutout? Let’s swap recommendations! #Food #ChicagoEats #BestNewRestaurants
