I had a few chips with salsa before hand. The salsa was more watery than I preferred. The enchiladas came and I began to dig in. They were alright and the flavors got better as I went on to eat more. The refried beans had the most flavor and were good for the plate. The rice had the least amount of flavor, but it all worked out. My wife didn't eat much of the nachos and said that it was missing something. Don't take this review too seriously because I love Tex-mex and this is not it. I think anyone coming here looking for good Mexican food here will enjoy it.

We ordered the shrimp tacos and chilaquiles. The tacos were served on a flour tortilla, a practice I've never seen. The filling was somewhat like coleslaw. It was a weird combo.

Ordered a quesadilla and a drink. Another guy came around, looking like I was there to pick something up for Door Dash or something. I said, "The other guy already took my order." Not much response. He just left. The first guy came back with a bowl of limes, a Diet Coke and some sauces. He left. A third guy came by and dropped -- and I mean dropped -- my quesadilla and a plastic fork in front of me and left. That was the last I saw anyone. The quesadilla was fine, as far as it went. Would have been nice to get a knife. Still don't know what the limes were for. No chips and salsa like you'd usually expect. Finished eating, got up and paid. There are LOTS of really good Mexican restaurants in Aurora. I'll pick one of them next time.

La Sierra was approximately a 35-minute drive from our home in the western suburbs. We arrived at approximately 8:30 AM. As we drove up my wingman John commented that he would not have come into this neighborhood or restaurant if I was not with him. Yes, the neighborhood was a bit rough (I grew up in Pilsen in the 1960's) but to me it felt like home in Chicago. We walked in and were warmly greeted by the hostess and waitress and told to sit-down anywhere we wanted. We chose a booth in the second room of the restaurant; the walls were covered with photos of Mexico and the smell coming from the kitchen was heaven. Our waitress quickly approached us for our drink order, she mentioned that they had Cafe de la Olla (made with piloncillo-unrefined whole cane sugar from Latin America, and cinnamon sticks) which we both ordered. The coffee arrived in a colorful Mexican traditional mug (just the way my mother used to make me). It was delicious! We then ordered our breakfast, which was Mexican Chilaquiles (a traditional, comforting breakfast dish consisting of crispy tortilla chips simmered in red or green salsa until slightly softened) with eggs, meat & refired beans. We were both in "Heaven", the tortilla chips were perfectly cooked with just enough "Crisp" to them. Just the way my mother used to make me on a weekend morning. My wingman & I both agreed that we will be returning and bringing our fellow foodies with us to try the other dishes offered!

First all, do yourself a favor and get the KoRn, you won't be disappointed. This is a family run restaurant, and you can really feel the care they put into both their food and their customers, every time I come in they remember me. I work nearby and recently, I had ordered food but was unexpectedly unable to pick it up. They went above and beyond by personally delivering my order! I was honestly blown away by their kindness and generosity. This level of genuine customer service is something you don't come across often. I recommended La Birria Loca to anyone who will listen and I can't recommend them enough!

I was surprised by the.... call it the Authenticity of the menu. They had the standard tex mex stuff like burritos and enchiladas, but also a lot of things I have never seen or heard of. One thing I noticed walking in was the large amount of Nopales (cactus) cooking on the grill, so I really wanted something with Nopales. I settled on the Molcajete Mixto, which is an incredibly large pile of Chicken, Pork and Beef with red chili sauce, with peppers and onions, fresh cheese and Nopales served in a Molcajete. It was so so good, the meat had great flavor, all cooked perfectly and I took so much home I had it twice more. They also have homemade tortillas. It was one of the better restaurant meals I've had in a long time. My wife had a simple Taco salad with steak and it was just as good. I can't believe we had never been here. We certainly will be back and bring everyone I know. I hear they have maratchi on the weekends at night. There is so much more I want to try on the menu, it's a great location on the river. I don't understand the underwhelming yelp reviews, but I absolutely loved it.

The restaurant was clean, quiet, the bathrooms were clean, the cashier so sweet and patient--I couldn't ask for more! We ordered a asada burrito dinner, a chorizo burrito, and a large horchata to split. We were given a basket of chips and a delicious salsa that had flavor, but wasn't too spicy! The burritos were generously filled and had avocado! That's not something I see everywhere. The beans were a great consistency, the rice was soft and flavorful, and the horchata was top notch! It had a unique flavor, too, and wasn't watery. The cup also wasn't overfilled with ice! While we were patiently waiting for the burritos, we fell victim to the slideshow and decided we just had to try a gordita lol. It was SO good, but the portions were so filling we had to take the rest of the gordita and part of a burrito with. The tomatillo sauce was perfect and the red sauce had quite a kick to it, but not enough that it was painful. The food didn't NEED any extra sauce, but I like to try them, anyways! I wished I lived in this area so I could eat more gorditas, but I will definitely stop here again if I am around! If you're lucky enough to live in the area, please do support this sweet business!
