This is a mixed professional review. I will preface by saying that if you dine in, I 'm pretty sure you 'll have a great experience. The food here can be absolutely top notch. The experiences I 've had both with family and coworkers while in house was amongst the best I 've had around in and out of Chicago. However my stars being removed are due to my take out experiences, which is my usual at this place. The cons are such: I am a taco snob , these are hit or miss some of the best tacos in the entire Chicagoland area asada, pastor carnitas are wonderful. Unfortunately, I 've had several to go orders messed up, with them putting unwanted cheese on the tacos. After a couple messed up orders, I...
Oh my! WHAT.A.PLACE! When you walk in you are immediately greeted and seated. As you sit down, you are served water, homemade chips and a plate with mild and spicy salsa and veggies. This was just the start of a delicious meal. The chips and salsa were amazing! Be mindful when ordering you can share, the portions are MASSIVE and one dish can easily feed two adults and a kid with no problem. Unfortunately, we ordered a too much not knowing the portion sizes that was about to come out but we were able to try many different options so it turned out to be a good thing. The waitress was very helpful. Since we ordered three tacos she did say they can be mixed it didn't have to be three of the same...
The rudeness of the host was terrible!! My uncle asked a question and how this rude host answered with no such regards to my uncle and his age was uncalled for! On top of this unprofessional rudeness, we waited over an hour for our food while 2 separate groups of people showed up after us and got their orders before us!! By the time we got our food it was cold, flavorless and our appetite wasn 't as before the long wait. This host NEVER acknowledged us calling for him to ask for napkins or to go plates. He just stood at his podium acting like he didn 't hear us. We had no choice but to ask the bus boy instead. This man really needs to know how to leave the attitude at home and learn better p...
This is not really a Mexican food place! Tacos are not good! The meat on asada tacos is very greasy and hard to bite. I asked for Bisteck a la Mexicana, but in reality, they served me beef fajitas with tomato sauce, not even a spicy sauce but more like ketchup That let you know that the cooker is not Mexican or they are too cheap to prepare a real sauce. It is not just me, all guests complained about the quality of the food. The other thing is that they are looking to remove your plate from the table very often, so one feels like they are asking you to leave. For a bar, it is probably a good place located in a nice area.

This place is fantastic. The family who runs it is beyond nice....but food trumps all and yes, it is killer. Live music somedays. And you can never forget the banana, fried banana they bring last. My whole week is satisfied, oh and did i mention the Margaritas? You'll end up going back just for those!
The service was great. The food was ok. The spinach enchiladas had too much sauce and not enough spinach and cheese. The tostadas were a little soggy and you had to eat them with a fork. The atmosphere needs a little updating.
WOW I happened to stumble on this place looking for a quick bite to eat. Delicious food, friendly and attentive service, and big portions. Absolutely worth checking this place out!
Anyone who wrote a bad review about this place is a Karen. Delicious food and the service was incredible. Probably the most genuinely nicest staff of any restaurant I've been too.
