I added lime (limon), but I didn't like their salsas. Overall, it was okay 3/5. My boyfriend ordered: 3 tacos - chicken (pollo), steak (asada), and Al pastor: Onion (cebolla) and cilantro - He said they were okay, but not very flavorful either. - Of the three, he liked the chicken the most. - He also wasn't a fan of the salsa. Chips & salsa: They give you a good size brown paper bag filled with chips and a nice size salsa. - I was not a fan of the salsa, but I like the chips; you can tell they make them fresh in house. - My boyfriend was not a fan of either the salsa or the chips. He said they were thick and greasy. - I agree they are thick and they do have grease, but that's because they are freshly fried corn tortillas, which I think that's a good thing.

Absolutely one of the best Mexican tacos, burritos, and food around! Supermercado San Francisco…read moreserves incredibly flavorful and authentic food that keeps you wanting more after every bite. The meat was tender and cooked perfectly, and paired with a rich, savory salsa that was amazing. Everything tasted fresh, homemade, and full of authentic flavor. They have a full Mexican menu. The tacos de tripa and asada torta is my favorite. It's cooked to perfection. They also have vegetarian options. 10/10! The staff was friendly, fast, and attentive even during busy hours, and the restaurant was clean with a welcoming atmosphere. Their salsa bar and portions were excellent, and every dish we tried was outstanding. If you love great Mexican food this place is a must-try. Highly recommend -- easily a 5-star food experience!

The place has a welcoming, casual atmosphere. There is choice of seating: booth, table, or bar side. It's clean and well attended. The wait staff was nice. The chef even came to clarify some things on my order (how I wanted my egg) and checked on me afterwards with future suggestions. I'll be back. I seated myself in a booth. Fresh made chips and salsa choices were brought to the table with napkins and utensils. Rhodes chips were just right. They were made from good tortillas, crisp fried in clean oil. I could have just had that for breakfast. I needed proteins, so I chose the Chilaquiles con Huevo in green salsa. I was told the red was not spicy but can be adjusted to my liking. My eggs (2) were over easy (well executed), served over cheesy corn fried tortilla strips with sour cream, tomatoes, refried beans, rice and guacamole. I make it through half the dish. The rest was taken home and eaten the next day. Just as tasty. I have more s dishes to try and a Summer month to do it.

Great Mexican in Midlothain, another great Mexican place on the south side of Chicago…read more This gets the extra star for "not blasting their music as loud as Calienté does" according to my father. I love their green sauce, super tomatillo-y with a little bit of tang to it. Their red has the nice roasted flavor but isn't too killer. Their salsa is good and guacamole is nice and fresh. If you need the heat they carry El Yucateco, that's the hot sauce Mexicans use and if you need anything hotter than that you bring your own insanity sauce. I ordered the Mexican skillet which provided a more than generous portion of chorizo cooked with potatoes. Eggs were cooked overeasy and the yolk blended in really nicely. It is to be noted that their beans are really good, which sounds ridiculous but they were definitely above average. Most places will just dump them out of the can and heat them up. Same with their rice, it was flavorful and a little tomato-y, which reminds me of my mothers old recipe. My girlfriend ordered the chicken taco dinner and she really liked it. The chicken was nice and moist-- not crazily seasoned or marinated, but cooked right. My dad ordered the steak dinner and I could say the same about the steak -- nice char, easy to chew. His plate came with some cactus which I got to try, and that was pretty good; kinda tangy, nice texture. I also liked the horchata, which had a nice amount of spice to it and wasn't gritty! The service is good and I should mention that the time before we were here, they gave us a little sample of tongue -- it wasn't exactly my thing, but the fact that they let us sample it I was grateful for. Plus if you DO like tongue, it is likely very good. (It did taste good, I just wasn't a fan of the texture.) So maybe if you've got a kid or are otherwise curious about something it seems that they will let you sample at least the not-so-expensive things. This place may not be off a main road, but it is certainly not to be passed up if you need a new Mexican place.

Loved this place! A true hole in the wall, no frills great Mexican restaurant…read more Huge portion of fajitas. Meat was flavorful and well cooked. Not the prettiest pieces like the bagged stuff most places used. Chicken thighs whacked into various sizes, steak sliced against the grain then chopped into odd sizes. Can tell they are cutting this themselves. Usual accompaniments of pico, sour cream, guac, rice and beans were all fresh and good. Tortillas were fabulous! Friends both had the 3 taco meal with steak. They both liked them a lot and said they were similar to what both of their mothers made. High praise from 2 Mexican men. Only a few tables inside but most people were doing take out. Very clean inside. Cash only so be prepared. Priced so reasonably you might even have enough pocket change. Will definitely go back next time I'm in Chicago.

It has a pretty simple menu of a few items or so. At least it makes it easier to choose anything. The prices are okay and the food is better than it looks. Bad thing is there's no alcohol. It's not a place for margaritas, but rather Jarritos. That's why they have to make good on the food, so you can at least get something. For meat eaters the menu is mostly for them with things like beef and chicken. There's also crazier things like tongue. It's about $8 for guacamole. Pretty much the only vegetarian thing on the menu it seems. Had a chunkiness with a light spiciness to it. The tortilla chips were crispy and simple without being burnt like at many places. For sure it's one of the many places to get Mexican food. It's located on Cicero Avenue at 137th Street. They're open until late at night so you can go when getting the munchies or something.
