Tried Asada Mexican Grill and had a really good experience. From the moment we walked in, the staff was friendly and welcoming, and the restaurant itself was very clean and well kept. The service was quick without feeling rushed, and everyone was attentive and polite. The food was the highlight -- especially the birria tacos. They were flavorful, juicy, and clearly made fresh. Everything came out hot and tasted great. Overall, it was just an easy, pleasant experience with good food and good service. Definitely a place I'd come back to and recommend. read more

A Halal Restaurant Posing as a Mexican Restaurant. The only thing Mexican themed here is the name of the place. You want Falafels?! You got it! You want Tamales or Chorizo? Forget it! I truly had high hopes for this establishment when I saw the sign. Once I walked inside and took one look at the menu board, I knew this wasn't going to be a good experience. Asada has an extremely limited menu and the food is crappy. I ordered tacos to go and ended up throwing them out after a couple of bites. I can't seek about the Halal food, however, Taco Bell serves better tacos than this joint. The staff also looked "less than thrilled" to be working that night. The only thing going for this place is that the establishment has a large, comfortable dining room. Plenty of other Mexican restaurants in the Fox Valley area to go to than this. read more

Staff very friendly and attentive. Food was great got the birria and fish tacos. Flavors were on point. Will be back when I get the urge for Mexican food. read more

I have passed by this restaurant on 75th on the NW corner of 59th. The restaurant is cute and slightly decorated in the Mexican theme. I ordered 3 tacos (birria, steak and chicken) plus the rice and beans. The birria was very good. The steak was tasty and not chewy, and the chicken also very tasty. Good seasoning! The rice and beans were also good. The guacamole had more than just avocado! You order at the counter, no waitresses, no tip add on, reasonably priced. Go there they have room for larger groups great to run for a meal when shopping. You won't regret it. read more

We were fortunate to try out the new Asada on its second day of opening. I love Mexican food, and this place offers a fully halal menu. It's located at the corner of 75th St & Route 59 in a small strip mall adjacent to a larger plaza. The interior of Asada is large and looks amazing. They did a great job with the tables, chairs, and decor. We ordered fish tacos, chicken tacos, and a steak burrito. The taco dishes include 3 tacos by default, and each dish includes complimentary tortilla chips. Of course, they also included salsa, both the red and green varieties. You also get to choose between corn and flour tortillas for the tacos. We went with corn tortillas for both, but in hindsight should have selected flour for one set of tacos. I'm not a huge taco person, but the fish tacos were pretty good; the fish was nicely seasoned, though perhaps a bit too salty. The fish tacos had red cabbage and avocado, which is nice. The chicken tacos were okay; the fillings for this included corn and diced tomatoes, not the most exciting of toppings. The burrito was excellent. It was filled with ingredients like beans, rice, and sour cream. It was flavorful, but I would have liked more meat. I definitely prefer burritos to tacos, but would love to try the bowl next time. The horchata drink also sounds interesting. Overall, a nice meal. Each dish we ordered cost $11.99, which seems reasonable. The food took about 12 minutes to come out. Service was good. read more

Really good food with great salsa plus the chicken is always cooked perfectly. The rice is fluffy and the guac is delicious as well. Overall a very solid spot in the neighborhood. Glad they're here! read more

Well, if I hadn't been so famished I could have snapped a picture but I just dove right in! I was in the mood for tacos! After trying the steak, chicken and fish, I'd really like to try the barbacoa, too! The fresh guacamole is what made everything better! It was delish! Now, I'm not a big fan of spicy so the rice and black beans were fine for me, with really no hint of heat...if you like spicy there were red & green salsa options on the table. I so appreciated Sharif's hospitality on my first visit! I look forward to coming back! read more

Where's the spice? Where's the flavor? Everything, except for the red salsa was bland. I wanted to like this place but everything was a bit boring. Also really weird that when you "dine in" everything is packed in lidded to-go containers, very wasteful. read more

This place is not good, I don't know who is giving it 5 stars, must be the owners family. Food is bland plus I got bad diarrhea and was vomiting after eating here. read more

5 star. phenomenal burrito. I got the shrimp burrito, it tastes better than all the other places and affordable. It also came with free chips and sala (To go), and all the workers were kind. This is my go to for burritos now, fuck other places. The rice in the burrito tasted really good too, it's the perfect rice, it's not simple brown or white rice like chipotle, I think there's seasoning. And there was a perfect amount of lettuce unlike that one burrito place I went to one time. I reccomend this place. and they package the to-go orders better than any other restaurant, this is the best place. It's right by walmart accross the street. read more

I'm so happy Asada is now open! They bring an amazing balance of great quality food, tasty balance of flavors, and a clean upscale atmosphere. The team is super nice. I got the Barbacoa tacos and they were delicious with the salsas! read more

Tried this new restaurant and was impressed...nice inside, clean and the service was very friendly. It's an order at the counter restaurant fyi. We tried the Birria taco special and the steak fajitas...both were excellent, great flavors. It is also fairly priced. We will be back. read more

From the moment you walk in, you can smell the sizzling goodness from the open kitchen. The staff greets you warmly, and the food comes out fast but never feels rushed. I tried the grilled chicken tacos, and they were incredible--tender meat, fresh pico de gallo, and the right amount of heat. The guacamole is hands-down the best in town--creamy, citrusy, and made fresh to order. What I love most is the attention to quality. Every ingredient tastes like it was prepped that morning. Whether you're grabbing a quick lunch or sitting down with friends, this spot never disappoints. read more

If you don't try this place you're missing out !!! Highly recommended. The food is spot on. If you like Mexican food, you'll Love it.

I feel misled by the many yelp reviews for this Mexican restaurant. Yelp users give the most positive comments for this type of eatery in the neighborhood. I ordered a couple of steak meals that were dissapointing and a seafood taco meal. All three tasted like generic meals with ingredients sourced and prepared by a fast-food chain. The steak consists of tiny, overcooked pieces if meat the size of peas. The beans and rice were also cold and lacked flavor as if they were prepared earlier in the day. The staff are friendly but that doesn't make up for the generic, overpriced, lackluster dining experience. Mexican food can be so delicous and satifying. I wish peaple living in this Naperville/Aurora area would raise their standards so that other yelp users can better rely on their experiences for guidance. read more

We brought our grandson for lunch. The employee at the counter was very friendly. You can see the area where they prepared the food and everything was so clean. Our food was really good. We would definitely come back when we are in the area! read more

Best Burgers ANYWHERE! Family owned. They take great pride in everything they do! Wonderful experience every time I go in! read more

The food, the carne Asad burrito we ordered was $11:99 which not the worst case of this burrito. It is a very small in portions cut in 2 filled overly with beans and a sprinkle of carne. We also ordered the 3 taco dinners for $12.99 got all chicken tacos . Again the were super small portion size tacos for Around $4.50 each. The green and red hot sauces wasn't all that. The place did have a nice ambiance. Decent size. We did have to wait around 40 mins to get our food ready once ordered. Needless to say I will not be making a rerun trip. Sick here. Many other options to go get Halal' food near by. read more

This is not authentic Mexican cuisine. The quality of the steak was disappointing, and while the portion size was generous, the meat did not appear to be freshly prepared. The salsa was unusually sweet and included spices not typically found in traditional Mexican salsas. The restaurant itself has a nice setting and a pleasant atmosphere, but if you're looking for great flavor, quality ingredients, and true authenticity, I would recommend skipping this place. read more

The food was amazing, the chips alone I was eating so fast. The place felt amazing to walk into, great and very welcoming and the service wasn't too bad either. They were accommodating even to the fact I forgot to put a drink in my order and they helped me out. Only thing was a little bit too much onion in the burrito but honestly it was still delicious read more

The Baja bowl is amazing! I would definitely come back if I lived in this area. Great service on a busy Friday night!

We have ordered online for pick up 2 times and both meals were excellent!! Highly recommended!!

Pleasantly surprised by Asada. While we hoped there was a bar the food made up for it. More of a fast casual place than a dine in but very good food and a good value. Pleased with the portions and the quality. We will be back. read more
