    Daily specials
    Nelson M.

    Restaurant review Inexpensive, fast, mexican food would be the four words to summarize your experience at Cactus Grill. This restaurant is located in a small strip mall that is adjacent to subway and Espresso Royale. Very limited parking spot and you may even miss the entrance when you come the first time. When you go order it is just like Chipotle, however the rice is not cilantro rice but spanish rice and the ingredients appear to be slightly lesser quality in terms of freshness and taste, however the daily special at 5.25 make up for this. Check out the pictures I scanned of the menu to determine which days you want to go. Otherwise the burrito is way better than the panchero burrito. So if you don't have to travel to prospect or on campus for chipotle, this can be your one stop shop. Pros: cheap daily specials, quick, inexpensive Cons: very small parking lot, hard to get in, lower quality than chipotle. The honey chicken reminds me of the chicken you get at the asian restaurants at the mall. Some poor health code violations which can make you leary, however that price still wins me over :) Hidden deals: Daily special 5.25 Monday- Chicken burrito Tuesday- 3 chicken taco Wednesday- Steak burrito Thursday- Chicken quesadilla and chicken taco Friday- Fish, tofu, or veggie burrito Saturday- Chicken burrito Health code rating: D. There are some terrible food handling reviews. It was recently covered in the newspaper as well. "The restaurant received an adjusted score of 30 and seven critical violations, including foods at preparation tables being improperly stored, a delivery from the morning still sitting out and raw meat being dispensed inside the undersized, walk-in cooler." http://il.healthinspections.us/champaign/estab.cfm?facilityID=1361

    Honey chicken bowl and a fish taco - good!
    Alex C.

    Ordered delivery on a Saturday night and wanted to try something different. I ordered a chicken burrito bowl with guacamole and a fish taco. The bowl was on special for $5.25. I ordered through grubhub and delivery was kind of slow, a little over 1 hour and 10 minutes, which I guess is to be expected on a busy Saturday night. The ordering itself though was very easy and convenient on grub hub. The fish taco was surprisingly good. The fish tasted fresh, and it was a fairly large size with all the toppings. I really liked the fish and the sauce it came with. My burrito bowl was also quite tasty. The honey grilled chicken was flavorful and appeared to be of good quality. There was no shortage of toppings, especially the guacamole I paid a ~$1.30 extra for, this was fresh and delicious. The portion was large enough to save half for later, too! Overall for ~$15 delivered this was a pretty good deal. I'm not quite sure if it was better than Chipotle, but it was definitely cheaper for a comparable product. I would get Cactus Grill again for sure.

    Inexpensive, quick and good. Always order the item on special. Tuesdays are (3) Tacos, but I usually go for Thursday's Quesadilla Taco combo. Special prices have moved up to 5.70, but it's still worth it. Only challenge is the parking lot, as it's narrow... and people do not know how to park. Oh well... still worth it.

    The onions I had to pick off my quesadilla. Yes, I do like onions....just not this many.

    First experience with this restaurant. I ordered the chicken quesadilla fajita style. I literally had to pick off maybe half of an onion chopped into tiny pieces. I love onions, but in moderation.

    Not bad, but not impressive either. Too expensive unless you get the daily special. I'll stick to Maize next time.

    I love that Cactus Grill offers tofu as a filling in their tacos and burritos. The quality of the vegetables is a plus.

    Great food for carry out, do not order delivery unless you do not plan on being hungry for a couple of hours.
