Alex and her staff go above and beyond for every single customer to make sure they never leave unhappy. If I could give 5 stars for every single order I would but you're only allowed to review a restaurant once. I love all the upgrades Alex has made to the building and the outdoor areas. Everytime I walk through the doors I am admiring something new. Highly recommend Raul's. Family owned and operated will always get my business.

HORRIBLE food and old, I was told it is cooked in the morning and sits in pans on the grill…read more My first time here was 5 months ago. And it was a fresh delicious burrito. I watched them put fresh steak on the grill and burrito was amazing so I gave them 5 stars on google. Made me come back and the last 3 times I came back my steak was hard, tasteless and dry. That's because they keep it fully cooked in a warmer all day long on the grill instead of making it fresh when ordered like before. So when I came in today, I asked the girl at the register if I can get my steak made fresh in my burritos that I was ordering and she told me NO! The meat is already cooked in the morning and they don't make it fresh to order. She refused to make my food freshly cooked. She told me the owner will not allow that! They have to use what was already cooked for the day. They definitely lost my business and my family's business and I will also tell friends. No wonder there is nobody in the restaurant every time I go there lately. This place will be closed down soon because of no business because people would like their good nice and fresh and not hard and dry. I wish I can delete my Google review I gave 5. Months ago because this place went down hill from just 5 months ago. Also rude horrible customer service just because I asked for freshly made food. I wish I didn't even have to give 1 star because I walked out an unhappy customer. But I had to leave the review. HORRIBLE I went back in to tell the girl I left an update review and she was already reading it smiling, giggling showing to the two male cooks like she won a surprise lol. Childish and pathetic. She needs to be fired.

After moving to this area, it's been hard finding good quality and good flavor places unless you go to Crystal Lake or Kildeer. However, I think this place is a local Mexican food gem. I got 4 tacos for pick up: ground beef, steak, pastor and barbacoa. Right off the bat, all tacos had a very generous amount of meat and onion/cilantro (my choice of topping) in them. However, on top of that here is what I loved about each taco: Ground beef: it was actually quite well seasoned! All other ground beef tacos I've had in the area are just plain. This one had a beautiful seasoning flavor to it. It caught me by surprise! Steak: it was your typical small cubed low quality taco meat steak. Not as flavorful as the ground beef, but honesty still really good Al pastor: the SEASONING and FLAVOR were just awesome . Honestly most well seasoned pastor I've had in a while. What for me personally could have made this a 10/10, would be if they served it with grilled pineapple mixed in. However that's just my personal flavor preference lol. Overall, still one of the best Al pastor in the area. Barbacoa: it was super moist and tender and again the flavor profile of the way they seasoned it when cooking was just Also got chips and guacamole. Very good. Nice chunks, and not puréed like some places do. Overall I will definitely be coming back here to try the other dishes! Highly recommend!

This place doesn't do anything fancy they stick to the basics and they are good at it. I really enjoyed the El Pastor Tacos and Carnitas burrito especially with the salsa roja. All meats here are super tender and seasoned just perfectly. One of the best Mexican food I've ever tasted!!!! 3 Amigas Supermarket cater to the Latino community. If they don't then who will!?! I like shopping here because they carry the products I grew up on & still use to this day. Fresh, inexpensive produce in abundance. Meat department ready to provide you cuts for when you want to make carne a la mexicana, birria, milanesa, chicharon, picadillo, chicken fajitas, etc. They also have marinated meat & chicken for your carne asada gatherings. Their deli offers spicy, delicious red & green salsas, pico de gallo, guacamole. This place also has a kitchen with hot foods if there's no time to cook And can't forget their bakery items. I've always been treated nice by the staff. Mostly spanish speakers but tell them in english what you're looking for & they'll understand.

Date of visit: August 5, 2023…read more Note: This review is for the food truck 3 Amigas, which listed an address that matches the store and appears to be an extension of the brick-and-mortar location. The woman running the truck was very efficient and knowledgeable, answering questions about the food available, sending orders to the "Kitchen" and handling payment with deftness and ease. I really appreciated her ability to keep the line moving! She was also accurate with my order. Unfortunately it was an all-around meh quesadilla. I ordered with ground beef since that's not something I eat often and I considered this a special treat. While the tortilla was pretty standard, there wasn't a ton of flavor to the ground beef and the cheese was nearly non-existent, a definite disappointment. There was also no sour cream to accompany the dish, which I feel would have gone a long way towards improving the overall taste flavor of the quesadilla. The menu referred to it as a Super Quesadilla, but we seem to have wildly differing definitions of "super!"

They give you four options of salsa to start and all are made in house. I had one steak and one chorizo taco and both were tasty. My date had enchilada suizas with steak and the meat was seasoned very well. We will definitely come back, I hope more people start coming! It is a different atmosphere than Tacos el Norte but it's super tasty!

All the needed equipment is available, projector and screen and plenty of room to separate dining tables from the meeting. It could use a little more fiesta touch. The owner Delia has tried her best to attract more patrons, but it's not easy. I think she should go to flashy, real Alamo Hacienda decor. Bring some energy in and it's in a great location! Should be doing better than it is. Maybe trimming the hours of operation?

Wow, the old reviews need an update…read more My stepsister catered Guys Grille Gyros for her brother's engagement party. They came out with the flat top for the carnitas, al pastor, and chicken and they had huge stone bowls for the salsa, guacamole, and salsa verde. First the food was excellent. The meat was seasoned perfectly and coooked with the amount of crisp that I enjoy. The onions and cilantro were freshly cut and a great accompaniment to the protiens. They even had homemade tortilla chips, so I was happy to oblige for my second trip. The flavors were delicious and the presentation came across as homemade and rustic, versus some of the local Americanized hispanic restaurants in the area. Last note is that the owners, Luis and Genaro Garcia, were very kind and made sure that everyone was able to get enough food and feel catered to. Don't pay attention to the old reviews and listen to me... when you come here, you should expect food made with love and passion and if you have any issues with it, Luis and Genaro would gladly help you out. Visit them now!

Creative Menu and Delicious Food--A Perfect Post-Adventure Spot!…read more My friend and I usually eat here after we are hiking or skiing at the forest preserves nearby. While this place does not look like much on the outside, the experience inside is fantastic. We were pleasantly surprised on our first visit and now we always go back whenever we are in the area. * The Food: The menu is very creative with a lot of great specials going on, and the food is consistently delicious. Drinks are good with decent pours. * The Service: Even though the bartenders usually wait on us at the high-top tables, the service is always very good, attentive, and welcoming. * The Value: The prices are incredibly decent for the quality and taste you get. It is the absolute perfect spot to refuel after spending time outdoors. And they have long hours so always seem to be open when other places are closed. Check it out!

When we first got there my wife wanted to sit outside and was told they had heaters (as I was dressing for 50's temps), but they didn't have them turned on. So, inside we went and sat at the bar. Stayed for couple of quick drinks. Nothing special about it but our bartender was very nice, personable and attentive. So from that standpoint service was great! Pricing was decent but if you are looking for an old fashioned, don't. It tasted like they splashed it with sprite or something, bathed in crushed ice and Marciano cherry. Very sweet. All of that was passable and went with the style but had to knock them down when I went to the rest room. It was dirty, paper towels on the floor and trash bins overflowing. I get they were busy on a Saturday night, but still. We will be back but hope to have a better review next time. If I recall their food was good, though menu is a little traditional - nothing too exciting for this foodie.
