The salsa is served warm and delicious, tastes like garden fresh tomatoes. First time I ordered chilaquiles with cecina and they were superb. Second visit I had pollo en mole; the mole was rich, nutty, chocolaty and there was a lot of it. Homemade tortillas are outstanding. In an area with a zillion excellent Mexican places, this one stands out -- will definitely be back. read more

La Quebrada - Pollo en mole - Mexican Near Me - Aurora, Illinois

I was told about la quebrada being a good Mexican restaurant... food is ok but not great, it takes to long to get your food, by the time you get the food - you are with no appetite because of eating tortilla chips. Service is great, great attention, ambience, very tight and laud No room for you to move around I would give la quebrada a 3 star read more

Being transparent on this freezing Sunday during the crazy political holiday season, I want to keep this restaurant as my secret. But I can't. Great food. The mole is so good I want to write a song about it. Nice service. Low key old school vibe. Amen. read more

Amazing food the cecina The camarones amazing OMG The waitresses are so nice Definitely we come back read more

I love this place. The food is amazing. Always freshly prepared. The salsa is that unique style from this particular region in Mexico. Served warm and spicy, it never disappoints. The atmosphere is Acapulco vibe with seafood prevalent on the menu. This is my go to restaurant for authentic, delicious food. read more

I was out in aurora the other day and brought family out to this place last weekend based on yelp reviews. We arrive around 8pm and this place was open until 9pm on a Sunday night. Overall, it was an ok experience for us - group of 12. We split up into 2 adjacent tables, so that was fine. To start, the Nachos were really good. All the toppings, but the beans were good. Somehow, the beans on other items didn't match up. I think they ran out... To that point, the Tostada was ok. Flavor was ok. Good shell and all, but it kind of didn't pack the flavor. Lastly, I had an Enchilada with the ranchera sauce. When I had one there, it was ok. When I warmed up one the next day, it was actually much better. I assume, they just didn't bring it out hot. Anyway, overall still good. Service - ok, but not great read more

Highly recommend , delicious! Our group had seafood, steak all served with rice and beans. Salsa was great! Casual atmosphere. Wonderful service staff! read more

Cecina tacos have been my family and I's go-to for decades! The queso fundido and enchiladas are amazing. Love!! read more

Been living out here for over 20 years-driven past this place hundred if not a thousand times--never stopped. And I love Mexican food. It's always packed. I finally made the effort and went there for breakfast-a number of times, now. It's astoundingly good. The chips and warm salsa are terrific, I had Huevos Aporreados, Eggs with strips of steak. Outstanding! The Rice and Beans were delicious. Another time I had the Huevos Quebrada--Eggs with a thin steak on the side. Delicious! I asked for fresh Jalapeños to be added to my eggs, and they were there in force. Fine cinnamon-spiked strong Mexican Coffee to slake my morning thirst. Warm, efficient service, and they habla Inglese perfectly. Can't wait to try the Lunch/Dinner offerings. read more

We had the combo fajitas and the mole enchiladas. Both were fabulous. The service was great and the tables, chairs, floors were very clean. I wish I lived closer. read more

Food was good! Needed salt on rice and beans. Would not recommend getting a margarita on the rocks, it was just syrup. read more

We eat here regularly, but today's service was horrible! If a manager would have come to apologize for the 45 minute delay to receive our food, which was brought out at separate time frames, even after we asked over and over, it might have been bare able, but instead, everyone including the host acted like "oh well, who cares". I do have to say the waitress did apologize as we walked to pay the bill. Not sure if I will ever come back again. The food is good, but today left a sour taste! Hope everyone else gets good service! read more

Food is always tasty and authentic. When it's packed we then call and order take out from there.

This food was SOOO GOOD. We got the Bistec and the Chicken with Mole. We absolutely inhaled both dishes, they were so delicious. The bistec was so tender and well seasoned, and the mole was perfectly chocolatey. We only had to wait about 10 minutes despite being given a 30 minute wait time! There was live music which was so fun to listen to and watch. Such a great spot for a really good dinner. read more

We had a table of 12 and although it's a kettle more difficult we do this often as a group in Saturday mornings. Today this was extremely difficult at this location. We kept having to get up and get our own chips and salsa. Besides over an hour and a half to get our food which were not difficult orders. We usually support local businesses but this is one we will not be back or recommend. Sad to report. read more

We ordered chilaquiles both red and green they were just ok. My son got a steak torta that he enjoyed. We had to wait way too long for our food! The waitress never came back for refills or to see if we needed anything, was not very impressed with this restaurant read more

The live music is a great touch! The food is pretty good and authentic. A little pricier, but we will be back.

Let me start of by saying WOW!!! This place should be 2 floors. The food was to die for. words can't express the flavors and dishes. The service was great. I believe who took care of us was Emelia our server was great took great care of us. She was funny and her energy made us feel warm welcome and pleasant. Once our plates came out oh my god it was heaven. We normally drive to the city for Mexican food cause everything around our Area sucks but this place was worth the drive. The steak was perfect sorry it was F@&kin awesome. So juicy and the handmade Tortillas well that was on point. Alcohol was good too overall the food and service were on point and the salsa and chips are as well. This is one place that a lot of people will regret not eating here faster I know we did. Now it's become a favorite place for us to eat at.fyi prices are decent read more

Yeah, it's that good. Skirt steak, marinated just right and not overcooked, mole enchilada, great mole and not too salty like many others, tacos el pastor, had a look of being over spiced but wasn't at all. Wife gets those everywhere we go and she liked them as much as anyplace we've been. And we get pretty good Mexican food in Texas. read more

Went in and ordered a small margarita. Drinks came out and everything seemed fine. Once we got out bill, we were all charged for large margaritas. Despite not ordering them. Server refused to admit to her mistake and manager was not help at all. Putting their reputation on the line to make a quick buck. Never coming back. read more

I tried a few dishes of their menu. I had a little bit of sea food, gorditas, tacos, and a few alcoholic beverages. It was a surprisingly full night considering the quality of the customer service and food they had going on. The drinks were bland, the food was okay, the music was okay, and my overall experience was okay. I recommend this place if there's nothing else around. read more

Went to La Quebrada for first time and really did like the authentic menu and atmosphere, but we both thought the food was just alright and not very favorable. I had the enchiladas Rosa and the sauce was pretty bland and the chicken was dry. My wife had the tacos and had the same opinion. read more

This is a hidden gem. My cousin lives in the area and we wanted some good authentic Mexican food. La quebrada hit the spot 100%. We ordered a guacamole for a starter and then both ordered Enchiladas de mole (pollo). It was delicious & had a kick to it too. Next time I will definitely ask for some sour cream to top it off. I will be coming back here for sure! read more

The service was fantastic but just did not hit the spot. Everything from the salsa to the fijatas just tasted off. Maybe it was an off night but really wouldn't recommend unless you like non-traditional tasting Mexican food. 3 stars because the staff was so kind and sweet. read more

In Aurora there are a ton of Mexican spots to eat. This one is my favorite for asada/steak. It's called a Carne a la Tapiquena. It's a piece of steak grilled, rice, beans, cheese enchilada choice of sauce, guacamole and a grilled onion and jalapeño. Also served with homemade tortillas. Best steak platter at a Mexican restaurant I've had. I say this is a MUST try at least once. Then I'm sure you'll be back over and over for MORE! Carne a La Tampiquena read more

Whoa...absolutely amazing! Just moved from Texas and the is the first "real" Mexican food we have had. Absolutely amazing! Well worth a drive. Come hungry you will leave stuffed. read more

Is it weird that they sat me in the section with the only other white people, cut off from the rest of the dining room? Whatever I'm being paranoid! The waiter was very quiet, almost shy. Not rude though. The service was VERY fast. Complimentary chips and salsa came right away. The salsa is kind of a soupy warm style. I chose the taco dinner, Al Pastor. The flavor was very nice and the portion was more than enough for a "big boy" like me. I like this place. It seems like a nice restaurant to bring your family. If you're in the area give 'em a try. Later. T read more

Very nice place with cool art on the walls. The staff is very nice! I had Las Camarones Ajillos (see pic) which was very good. Others in my party had breakfast and they were happy with their meals. Their coffee has cinnamon in it, which I loved but my dad was not a fan. Would recommend for a nice breakfast place if the whole American breakfast isn't really your thing. read more
