    Two taco meal $9.99
    Rhonda N.

    So good! I hesitate to post this review because I don't want everyone to know about this Tinley Park gem! I had the two taco special for $9.99-choice of chicken, steak or pastor. I chose the pastor and I'm glad I did. Well-seasoned meat and plenty of it! Just enough of a serving on the rice and beans. My server Mary was friendly and very welcoming. A great neighborhood joint, I will DEFINITELY be back here!!

    Excellent tacos! Very impressed with their menu. Can't wait to try more items. They offer dine in and carry out.

    She sat there at the register blowing her nose then wiped her nose with her hands as she grabbed our chips n salsa. She has blonde hair a short older Mexican last in her latec40's. How dare you not wash your hands and I definitely told her the reason why I was leaving she didn't seem to care as she walked the chips n salsa back Where she got them from...*****cross contamination****.. Now is not the time to not be clean and serve food to the public that people are spending there hard earned coins on . Please tell your staff to wash there hands when handling food. I'm disgusted and finding another Mexican restaurant. Any suggestions anyone

    The food is very good but the waitress is very despot, she doesn't give customer service and receives things before finishing

    Steak burrito tasted like ground beef. Guacamole not good. And the hot carrots were mushy.

    Came here a month ago after seeing their reviews on Yelp. My aunt and I were looking for authentic…read moretacos. We go out to lunch once a month and we look for different cuisines each time. My taco standards are high because I lived in LA for 13 years. My aunt got the ground beef burrito dinner. She enjoyed it and had leftovers. I ordered two chicken and one steak taco. I loved the chicken tacos. I got mine with lettuce and tomato. And there were chips on the table that came with a saucy salsa. They also had Dr Pepper which is a major plus in my book. They would have been five stars in my eyes. But today, I came back craving tacos. I had been released from the hospital and all I wanted were these tacos. We looked up their hours on Yelp. It said they'd be open until 4. I called ahead to try to place a pickup order. I called for 15 minutes straight. No one picked up the phone. They also don't have an accurate menu anywhere listed online. All the Yelp menus are over 8 years old. Well we arrived before 4 and the door was locked. There were people inside eating and they just stared at us. It just left a bad taste in my mouth so I won't be coming back. You have hours and a phone for a reason.

The service was great and quick. The guacamole was delicious as was the just right salsa with crisp fresh chips. Quesadilla was nicely crisp and generous amount of cheese and the steak tacos perfectly seasoned with a load of fresh tomato, lettuce and cheese all on corn tortillas that were perfectly moist without being crumbly. Everything was delicious and the price point good. We will be back again soon!

My thoughts were they have a great exhaust system. Whelp, based on my experience it wasn't a good exhaust system there's no seasoning smell because you can't smell salt. That's the ONLY SEASONING I tasted on the beans and rice. The chicken was bland and no fresh AT ALL! My quesadilla barely had cheese! Imagine a quesadilla without cheese and no cheese pull whatsoever! I'm really disappointed with choosing this restaurant for a treat night. All I can say is Play At Your Own Risk! To the cooks there's definitely room for improvement.
