Tortillas were crispy and fried to perfection. The consommé was delicious, had me drinking it straight out the cup and was well seasoned, hot, and was in its own something to right about. The red and green salsas were also good. Red having a bit of kick, green was flavorful. I will say that I wish one of them had more heat to it but the acidity and flavors were great. The beef itself was so flavorful and tender, well seasoned, not to mention had the perfect amount in each item. Also, Onions and peppers on the side were cooked great and had me going back for more each time. Also, get the horchata, it was spectacular. This place is small but decorated to really feel like the owners, workers, really care and take pride in the establishment. It had a great ambiance that was full of people on a rainy lunch hour, and I can see why. As a person who works in the industry as a cook, the kitchen, which you can see when you order is neat, clean, and truly has the right feel of 'they know what they're doing and they're doing it well'. 5 stars, will be talking about this meal for a long time and spreading the recommendation to as many people as I can.

Their chicharron tacos in green salsa taste just like mom made them, and all their meats have a flavor you have to hunt down and go through 5-10 different spots to find them in other cities. Service is friendly, and the establishment is what you want a good Mexican restaurant to look like. The TV playing '90s Mexican music videos was a nice bonus. This is the best Mexican food in Milwaukee, the closest thing to it, and probably still falling short would be Atotonilco in Chicago. Don't overdo the brats, and head on over here for delicious and authentic Mexican food.

I would definitely come back to try more of the menu!

The guacamole had a strong citrus flavor which I am a fan of and the salsa was complimentary! I would HIGHLY recommend the best burrito ($15) as they did not skimp on any ingredient, especially the flavorful pork pibil. My only qualm was that the rice was undercooked and slightly crunchy, but otherwise an affordable and tasty restaurant for a date night. The staff were friendly, service was fast (less than 10min to receive food after ordering) and the restaurant had bright and colorful furniture and decor which were true to theme.

Food: For drinks, we started with a couple of mojitos, a margarita, and a paloma. Everyone was happy with their orders. Really surprised by how good all the food was. We started with guacamole and chips and a salsa flight. The chips were hot, right out of the fryer. The guac was well seasoned and had excellent texture. The salsa flight was interesting and added a bit of fun to the start of the meal. For the meal, we had a couple of orders of sopes (one al pastor and the other vegan chorizo), a trio of tacos (shrimp, beef, and chicken), and I got the Birria Fajita. Everyone enjoyed their food, with one exception: the chicken taco was a bit spicier than expected. Someone else finished that off. The side order of beans was just okay, but the rice was excellent. Good texture, with a good balance of seasoning. Because it was a birthday, they provided a complimentary piece of chocoflan cake, which was the best I've ever had. The chocolate cake base really complements the custard texture of the flan. We also got an order of churros, which came out fresh and warm. Eating them with the side of vanilla ice cream was a real treat for the rest of us. Service: Started out great! Menus, drinks, water, and appetizers all arrived promptly. Given how few people were in the restaurant, it took a while for the food to arrive--45 minutes after we ordered. My meal was also missing the side of beans and rice. After I mentioned that and the server apologized, I still had to remind them that I was waiting. The sides arrived well past the point when they would have been enjoyable with my meal. The server apologized again, and they volunteered to comp our desserts. At least someone recognized that the service had fallen short. Atmosphere: For a Mexican restaurant, the interior design is refreshing. Not your typical loud colors with sombreros. It has a hip feel to it, with accents of lime green floor tiles, collections of small framed pictures, pink vinyl chair coverings, and white globe light fixtures. It might be a little jarring for some tastes, but I thought it all worked together. Really enjoyed the food and the atmosphere. I hope the service we had isn't representative of what normally happens. The food was good enough that I would give it a second chance.

We got the classic guacamole $15 and then salsa $12. Both were average grocery store level. The whole time I was cold. They were very good about allergies and friendly, maybe awkward. The music was a bit dramatic, but if there were more people maybe it would have been more subtle. For a Mexican place the prices were much higher than normal. It was a little strange - right as we were about to leave they started removing everything instead of waiting one more minute; we had been there for a while. -Enmolada very good. Somewhat sweet, decently "chocolate". Some building heat. -The elote is okay. Maybe somewhat wet and needs to be mixed. -Shrimp fajitas were very good with more assortment of vegetables than normal. $29 -The rice was a bit dry. The beans were plain but healthy tasted.

I've gotten the pibil before and thought is was very tender and flavorful. We were celebrating a birthday and got the tres leches cake which was not what we expected, it had tons of coconut on it.

The menu features small bites, chicken, loaded fries, and they have specials too. I ordered at the counter and got a text once my food my was ready. There's plenty of seating inside the brewery and the interior is unique because it used to be a church. Don't quote me on that but I'm pretty sure it was at some point. Anyway, I had to try the birria egg rolls because there was a ton of signage. First, they were quite large. The exterior had a great crunch and the interior was stuffed full of delicious birria, mozzarella, and chihuahua cheese. The ancho chipotle aioli was nice and smoky and paired well with the eggrolls. Definitely recommend and I wish I lived in the area because I could make a meal out of just these. I also tried one of the specials, the Chicken Tinga eggrolls. Again, they were bigger than expected, had a delicious, crispy exterior, and was stuffed full of chicken tinga and queso. It was served with a side of crema. Perfect pairing and I might have enjoyed these slightly more than the birria ones. I highly recommend that you check them out. I'm jealous that I don't live closer because we don't have a place like this in KC. They are definitely a unique place with delicious food.

Get here early - parking sucks, and suburbanites will freak out at the hood, but no worries Jesus is right next door at St. Josaphats basilica and will watch over you. And don't forget to take a tour of one of this country's most beautiful cathedrals. Right there by Don Luchos. You can eat here. Lots of long communal tables so don't be shy. Prices aren't cheap but this is quality. I usually get a pound or so of carnitas. They measure it out, it's steaming, and ask if you want it chopped. I say yes. It's wrapped up tightly and it will feed you all weekend. This meat is freaking amazing!!!! I pray they haven't run out of homemade tortillas, but like I said, you gotta come EARLY. Sigh. There's about 6 different amazing salsas to try. Smoky, fresh, green, red, hot sweet - I get two for the weekend. I consider a quart of menudo. I think about. Lamb, goat, barbacoa, chorizo - but I have enough. Too hungry to wait to go home, I sit down to eat. Two tacos - huge! The best was the barbacoa - tasty little carmelized deeply flavored meat bits. Hey - don't go expecting American extras like sour cream or cheese. This is the real thing. Warming: one taco will do you. Got a side of rice and beans - yum. Don Lucho is a treasure. It is authentic, mom and pop, and these are the businesses I love to support.
