About Mango Pickle

Mango Pickle, located at 5842 N. Broadway St., Chicago, IL 60660, is a modern Indian restaurant inspired by the diversity and dynamism of India’s rich culinary landscape, which goes far beyond the popular tandoori oven preparations of its northern frontiers to the distinctly exciting fare of its coasts and avant garde urban homes, streets and eateries. The restaurant’s approach is influenced by its location in the Midwest, with attention to seasonality, sustainability, and quality.

Heading the kitchen is chef/owner Marisa Paolillo and partnering on the creative direction is Gregory Bazire.

Bazire, a French native, is a chef and restaurateur who has been residing and working in India since 2005. Their collaboration was first sparked by a month-long catering project in 2012 for a yoga retreat in Goa, India.
