Celebrations are second nature to Margarita Challenger, owner of the popular Mexican restaurant Guanajuato, located at 1003-1005 Green Bay Road in Winnetka, IL. The mother of four has certainly had her share of celebrations. The upscale Guanajuato focuses on artful, delicious and finely crafted renditions of street fare favorites from the Mexican region of Guanajuato, the childhood home of Margarita. The atmosphere is stylish, chic, and comfortable. As expert planners, Margarita and Chef Elipio Santiago relish every opportunity to host a party. It is no wonder their customers flock to the restaurant for their memorable festivities. "We are now in the season where guests are enjoying graduations and wedding showers. But families and friends celebrate birthdays and anniversaries here year around," says Margarita. The private dining room is a favorite spot for many party hosts. It holds up to 40 guests, but the restaurant is open to any kind of event from 16 to a total restaurant buyout. Margarita's background in catering is an immense help. "Our restaurant is much more intimate than a banquet hall or hotel. Our service is friendly, and we assist in planning every detail. We are flexible in developing menus that suit the guests' needs. Nothing is cookie-cutter," she says. "I want people to feel warmth as soon as they enter the restaurant," Margarita says. "We think about every aspect of our restaurant and what goes on inside of it. The food. The service. The atmosphere. Celebrations are the most intimate and our place is welcoming, bright, and happy."
