That looks like that'll be quite the destination.

A new restaurant called Mixtli will be opening up on McCullough Ave and requires you to buy tickets prior instead of reservations or just going there.

Two young chefs are less than a month away from opening a small restaurant with big ambitions.

Diego Galicia and Rico Torres are putting the finishing touches on Mixtli, 5251 McCullough Ave., in a one-time railroad car in The Yard.

The restaurant, whose name means “cloud” in the Aztec language of Nahuatl, will serve progressive Mexican cuisine. In practice, that means a modernist approach to ancient flavors and techniques.

The chefs are also are incorporating a ticketing system instead of taking traditional reservations or walk-ins. Diners purchase a ticket in advance for their meal, like buying a ticket for a concert. Dinner costs $80, and covers eight courses, beverage pairings, and tip. The system has taken off at places such as Next in Chicago and Trois Mec in Los Angeles.
