    Mejillones
    Vamos A Comer Z.

    We went on a Sunday at approximately 5pm and it was packed but we got seated within 15 minutes. Server was very attentive despite it being busy. Asked for aguachiles to be a little less spicy but they were still super spicy. Sauce was tasty though! The langostinos were great and more meaty than at other places I've been to. Michelada was great! The mejillones were also great! I will definitely be back at this local spot!

    Still a 5 star experience. Their seasoned fries are wonderful and I forget what the dish was but it was a seafood dish served in a pineapple and covered with cheese. It was so deliciously rich. Not photod is the mango margarita that really hit the spot. everything I said in the previous review still stands. I just wanted to include a photo

    Very nice establishment! The service was amazing and the food was perfect! The crew is from Jalisco so beautiful ladies doing what they do!! And the price is reasonable

    Not worth the price!!
    Christine Z.

    Not worth the price, they bring out a complimentary ceviche appetizer for two that is no bigger than my palm, I have a small hand. The ceviche has no flavor and only enough for one tostada and bone dry. The the red snapper deep fried in garlic was terribly over cooked and the the shrimp wrapped in bacon tasted like mush , this kind of dish is normally my favorite at other restaurants, well not here. I asked the waitress for ranch dressing she said okay yes and never came back. Also the they live karaoke which is nice but the music was so loud and blasting that you could not have a conversation. All on a Friday night. Do not recommend. See ya!

    Seafood filled pineapple cheesy and delicious

    My coworkers and I are in town for work and traveling all summer we finished at 9, we saw restaurant was still open and had high ratings so I lead them over there since I trust Yelp! The food ordered was the pineapple filled with a cheesy seafood medley and my other coworker ordered the fajitas , they were both extremely happy. I ordered the ceviche mixto it was extremely flavorful and yummy but the biggest disappointment was that it was loaded with imitation crab in the ceviche, it made me wonder if they use this in their other dishes for flavor :(. My issue with imitation crab is the artificial and terrible ingredients. We got in and the waitress was very nice and friendly, there was a friendly man who came by and asked my coworker if he needed tortillas for his fajitas which was very considerate, We were the last people in but everyone waved goodbye at us !

    Agua Chiles

    I placed an order through DoorDash for my husband and I to enjoy a lazy Saturday. Ive never ordered Agua Chile's and thought it would be a good idea to give Agua Chile's and La Palma a shot. Needless to say once the order arrives, the shrimp are completely raw and looked disgusting. What kind of restaurant sends out food like the pictures I attatched?? I tried calling the restaurant and No one answered. Honestly one of the most disappointing experiences I have had with any restaurant.

    Mango and Don Julio!

    Totally loved, it had a mix of Magueyes, Islas Marias and Mi Tierra, With extra, karaoke on fridays with Dj, and Mariachi on Sunday after 2pm per greeter. Will be coming back again, and so happy to see a great establishment in the south side of Chicago. Customer service, is a plus, plus, plus, and the atmosphere was cheery.

    We were seated right away on a Saturday night. Ordered the crab legs, garlic bread, and drink. They were done super fast & tasted great. The service was amazing. Constantly checking on us and bringing everything out right away. Such a great night will definitely be returning :)

    I found a place for seafood. I ordered Camarones a La Diabla The shrimp was properly seasoned and the sauce gave it a kick. Warning if you do not like really spicy food I wouldn't recommend this dish. The flavor was delicious a hit of tomato with a spicy tangy flavor and the fries were perfectly cooked. The only reason I gave it 4 stars because the rice was basic not thing to write about a dry. The tacos where delicious with a lot of flavor and the tortillas buttered up with the meat oil . The drink had mixed of flavors with the perfect amount of liquor. I would definitely go back

(inquire about the 4% service charge added) No rice or beans with any of my parties' dishes, not sure if that is an option. Time to be seated was less than five minutes for a party of four around 2:20 PM on a Sunday; busier times or days enforce their 90 minute time limit policy per table. The food was well seasoned, wish I tasted it a little more on the meat itself, yet all the vegetables tasted crisp and fresh. If you are looking to have intimate conversations be prepared to speak a lot louder, the DJ booth by the front keeps it pretty lively, but difficult to hold conversations across the table. Open authentic Mexican soda is always refreshing, and if you're looking for a place that has soft serve margaritas this is one of them. If you notice and unusual wait time or slow service please make your choice accordingly as I started to notice it was a case by case basis like some of the previous reviews had mentioned.

I must admit that I had low expectations because quite frankly, I have not enjoyed Mexican food outside of Mexico or California. However, we were hungry, and it was near where we were staying, so I decided we should check it out, and I am so glad we did! The food was great. Both adults and the VERY picky children in our group all enjoyed our meals. I ordered the green chicken enchiladas and the other adult ordered a chile relleno combo, which I also got to try. Everything was delicious and devoured by all! We were so full but the owner talked us into the chocoflan, and we did not regret trying it. It was soooo good! Speaking of the owner, the service was great. We really enjoyed how he and the rest of the staff were very courteous. It is a small establishment, and it gets a good amount of people, so I assume that there are waits during peak hours. I highly recommend Sabroso! And we plan to return the next time we are in the area.

There's no parking lot, but we found free street parking on Erie Street right next to the restaurant. We'll definitely come back!
