Kevin DuJanApril 20, 2011Wow. This place is great. Everything tastes slow-cooked and fresh. Best quesadillas ever. Big portions, strong drinks, nice staff, good prices. Worth a walk from Sox stadium after or before game.
Nicole VelazquezFebruary 15, 2013Carne asada was on point..tender..juicy and full of flavor!! Cute place..great friendly fast service. We enjoyed our dining experience :)
OrianaMay 23, 2016The most tender steak tacos I've ever had. Could use a bit more flavor but an overall 9.5. The margaritas are FUEGO. Peach is my fav. 🤗
Heather FolsomFebruary 26, 2014Super flavorful steak & chicken!! Loved the guac & refrained beans too! Service was friendly & welcoming.
Phillip WilliamsJune 28, 2014Do not get the jumbo margarita unless you have a designated driver or $10,000 to bail yourself out of jail and pay your DUI lawyer. It is the bomb!
Bob DeGraffFebruary 17, 2017Excellent Caldo de Res and Caldo de Pollo. Strong margaritas. Good service.
Ashley ArmstrongSeptember 11, 2012Best Mexican and margaritas I've had in Chicago so far! Steak tacos are really yummy.
Great food and service...can't wait to come back...this is going to be one of my regular spots now- Best food in the world! Great customer service! Amazing fajitas, enchiladas and burritos! Also they have a 17" burrito!
Roshan DericSeptember 22, 2014The chicken combo plate s pretty stuffed n a quite low priced I felt it's pretty cool
- Angela VaughnFebruary 23, 2012If you are on the run from the cops don't come here. It's one of their favorite hangouts. :-)
Chips and salsa (2 kinds!) + awesome margaritas + a Sox game on = a great time! Love it here I come all the time!
- Best Margarita's in Town & they are heavy on the Tequila. A pitcher of margaritas w/Chicken Nachos is the Happy Hour we all Live for! Cheers! Read more
MNathan JaquesNovember 19, 2015It was good... Nothing special. Just a typical Mexican restaurant with a cool name. Done.
Fernando RamirezOctober 20, 2010The carne asada is superb if watching the calories the chicken torta is lean and full of flavor.
Nubian GoddessJune 9, 2016Food is great but very lousy service. They offer margaritas but only serve lime on the rocks. I don't think I'll ever return because of the service. 👎🏼
Best Margarita's in the city. Must order the Bistec A la Mexicana
Ernie IzaguirreMay 27, 2012They need to add mango margaritas!! What are they thinking, it's a Mexican restaurant.
