    Three tacos
    D.j. P.

    Let me start off by saying the food isn't bad. It's average for a Mexican restaurant. I will say that this place is INSANELY OVERPRICED. Portion sizes are small. I ordered 3 tacos and they were barely two bites each with little steak. $4.10 a piece WAS NOT WORTH IT. I also got a large steak quesadilla which also barely had any steak in it. $10.99 for barely any steak and cheese on a tortilla is CRIMINAL . Also, I tipped 15 percent thinking maybe I'd get some chips and salsa for spending what I spent- NOPE. I had to get up to get my tacos. Couldn't even bring them to me. I won't be coming back. The food is decent, but the prices and service do not make this place worth stopping at. Better off trying something in West Chicago off 59. Also, no bathrooms???? Bro I paid almost $40 for barely any food and I can't wash my greasy hands after????

    I have visited this Los Fernandez on multiple occasions and have never had a bad food experience…read more They have deals on Taco Tuesday and surprisingly their fries are pretty good if you're a soft / semi crunchy fry person. Smaller spot but open late and they have karaoke going on for some live entertainment. Their drinks are normally solid, my go to margarita is delicious. We ordered some micheladas on our last visit and unfortunately they were flat and not savory. When we informed the waitress she said there was nothing she can do.

The food has always been good, so unfortunately, this review is strictly about customer service. Today around 8 PM, I spent $75 on a pickup order. When I got home and opened the order, I realized I was missing 2 of the 10 tacos I ordered. I called immediately, and after initially acknowledging the issue, I received a call back telling me that they were sure the 2 tacos had been included. I explained that I was literally looking at the order on my table and only had 8 tacos, but I was still argued with. It's not about the $7 worth of tacos. I'm not calling a restaurant after spending $75 just to make up a story about two tacos, especially when I would have to get back in my car and drive back to pick them up. It's about the principle and how the situation was handled. It's a shame because I genuinely liked this place and was a loyal customer. But being told they were "sure" the tacos were there when I immediately called after opening my order was extremely disappointing. I'm glad they were willing to lose a good, repeat customer over $7.

    Great Mexican food! Don't sleep on this amazing local gem…read more Very family friendly. Incredibly delicious, savory food that is both filling and satisfying. Chips, salsa, pico de gallo, and escabeche (pickled vegetable) hit your table and is a snack in itself. Salsa amazing. Green & mild. Red & hot rich and flavorful with that toasted char from the tomatoes that really comes through. I do love my burritos, but there's so much to choose from here. Tacos lengua, chorizo, pastor, and more. Great big plump tortas. Mix em up for an assortment of flavors. Recommend getting the caldo de res (beef soup.) An extremely rich and beefy soup with plenty of vegetables and big chunks of beef. Great staff. Waitress couldn't be more accommodating. She can tell you how everything is prepared which speaks of the handmade quality of the ingredients and the dish. Get the horchata or jamaica or mango Jaritos for a good pairing with your meal. Although, they do have plenty of alcoholic beverages, including margaritas, piña colada's and beer to choose from, such as Modelo. Highly Recomend.

They'll also load you up on the pickled veggies and salsa. The refried beans are fabulous. The menudo is good. The burritos are excellent (and a great size). Haven't had a bad meal to go or sit down. The inside of the place is festive. You'll get the occasional day with extremely loud TV, music, or even karaoke. Lots of table seating and a few bar seats. The michelada's are excellent...large and refreshing. The service is wonderful and they'll over fill you with chips and salsa.

    I finally found the right time to try this place, being in the mood for a dine-in Mexican dinner…read more It's a nice place with pleasant servers, and kudos to the guy who filled my water 3 times. I was torn between a chicken mole dinner or just good old tacos. I opted for the tacos Al pastor with rice and beans. I have had Al pastor at many, many places, and it's been interesting to see people's takes on the recipes. These were, hands down, the best I've had anywhere. The meat was charred nicely, yet tender. The marinade/sauce had the perfect balance between the sweetness of the pineapple and the counterbalance of the lime, cilantro, and onion. I was so proud of my selection, that I ordered some to-go for my daughter to try. I also had a delicious strawberry margarita and finished off with a tres leches dessert. Everything was superb! I'll be back for that mole someday, and will also try their Taco Tuesday. Judging from my food, as well as the presentations of others choices that I noticed, I believe their chef is seriously talented and creative.

My wife and I are pretty stuffed right now! I had the quesabirria tacos and she had a spicy shrimp dish with avocado and tortillas. Oh, and we had the nachos with a flight of 5 delicious salsas, as an appetizer. In the end, Orale felt different. It had a city vibe to it. We dug it and will be back for more. Near Hanover Park and in the mood for some Mexican cuisine? Check out Orale!
