"Stylish yet comfortable, the space is a welcome break from the stiff formality of most modern steakhouses. Art takes center stage in the design, highlighted by a mural above the bar from Raspy Rivera and CoCo Schramel along with other pieces. It's the kind of place that works just as well for date night or a family dinner, while the bar is great for solo diners - on my visit there was a guest in full White Sox gear who didn't look out of place."
"Those partial to gin and tonics are in luck: The menu has three versions influenced by Mexico, Galicia, and Argentina. The tres raíces section of the menu leans into Latin traditions, from a coffee-rum blend with Guatemalan cold brew to a tequila-and-yerba mate refresher. The spirit-forward lineup cater to stronger tastes with offerings like the tango negro, featuring rye, fernet, and sweet vermouth."
"Expect refined renditions of steakhouse staples. Both the shrimp cocktail and beef tartare are exceptional - among the best I've had in recent memory. Chef Sandoval is known for tuna tostada, a dish available at his West Town bar Diego and formerly at Sueños, the pop-up he ran inside Soho House a few years ago. Trino's tostada is similarly impressive, a verdant disc of crab meat, avocado, dill, and Asian pear pistachio."
Trino occupies the former Komo space on Randolph Street in West Loop, presenting a stylish yet comfortable dining room with art, including a mural by Raspy Rivera and CoCo Schramel. A Latin soundtrack and varied seating accommodate date nights, family dinners, solo bar patrons, and groups. The cocktail program features three gin-and-tonic variations and a tres raíces section with coffee-rum, tequila-and-yerba mate, and spirit-forward options like tango negro. Starters such as shrimp cocktail, beef tartare, and a crab-and-avocado tostada stand out. Bread offerings include Hawaiian rolls and focaccia fry bread. Steaks range from picanha to dry-aged T-bone with optional sauces.
