    Chicken Fajita Salad
    Caron C.

    We used to love this place, big portions and reasonable but wait! Did they change ownership? Portions we smalll and prices were waaaay up! So sad...

    Taco dinner

    Quite surprised in Sat night it wasn't crowded. It was only my party and 2 other parties. The place was clean and service was quick. I got the text dinner, grilled chicken and barbacoa. I was not a fan of either. The chicken was grilled perfectly but no taste to it. The barbacoa was a bit fatty. My daughter had steak and it was good. I should've got that. Margarita was good.

    Stopped by here on the way back from a weekend in Chicago after finding the strong recommendations for Los Cantaritos here on Yelp. It's a nondescript spot from the outside in a strip mall (with plenty of parking). The inside is bright and well decorated and the whole staff was very friendly. I have a theory about finding great inexpensive places for lunch by watching where the guys with the hard hats go, and I was glad to see plenty of reflective safety vests clad people among the customers. The salsa was good and the chips were freshly fried. We ordered the Flautas de Pollo, a Taco Salad, Sopes, and Carnitas Tacos. Portions were big and everything we ordered tasted great - super happy we found this spot!

    This was a great new spot! It is tucked away and feels like a hidden gem in this strip mall. The staff was very friendly and attentive and the food was great. A lot of places in the area don't have great chips/salsa or margaritas, but both were stellar! The ambiance is simple but clean too. We ordered 2 margaritas and they were perfectly strong and didn't taste like they just came from a mix. Also ordered 2 different dinners and the quality was fabulous. We will return!

    The first time I was here I loved this place, but on my return visit I was extremely disappointed. The Al pastor used to be my favorite in the area but now it's my least. The meat was bland, full of gristle, and price was high. I got a canatitos drink but it had almost no alcohol and for 10 dollars that seemed unreasonable. I used to recommend this place but it has gone way down from what it was before.

    I had the enchiladas and my husband had flautas and they were both delicious! The steak nachos had a ton of tender delicious steak on them. The margaritas were great and come in adorable pottery cups! We will definitely be back! We also had great service! Thank you!

    Stopped by for the second time and it didn't disappoint! The restaurant was clean. Immediately greeted by staff to be seated. Started off with complimentary chips and salsa. I ordered the stuffed tilapia with seafood and it was amazing! The flavors complimented well together. The portion was big and I had the rest for dinner the same day. My bf ordered the steak torta and a steak taco which he said were really good. This place has become one of our favorites in the Geneva area. Highly recommend!

    I drive by this place all the time and finally decided to stop in on a beautiful day for some…read moretacos. I love that they have outdoor seating, although inside is a decent size too. The menu is pretty extensive - next time I'll have to try the breakfast which is served all day. The service was good, they brought my tacos outside to my table. Although they forgot to bring my guacamole so I took that home. The food was delicious though - I tried chicken tinga, al pastor, and chorizo. They were each very flavorful and cooked well. The salsas were tasty too. Looking forward to coming back!

    So many good things to say - food tasted great and service exceeded my expectations!…read more I had the steak quesadilla which hit the spot - very generous portion of cheese and steak and it was super filling! My boyfriend had a variety of tacos (fish, shrimp, and ribeye steak) but the fish taco was his favorite. There were only 2-3 young men working the front of the house and they were hustling. They spoke very loud and clear (a good thing!) and stayed busy taking orders, cleaning tables, and checking on guests. Job well done to those hard workers. Inside is a bit tight. When we visited, a part of the restaurant was closed off for a party so seating was limited to the few tables up front. However, there are some tables outside and you're super close to St Mary's Park so you could always get your order to-go and picnic at the park.

    We came here for dinner on a Saturday night and it was packed, which we took as a good sign. If it…read morewas not for our reservations, I am sure would would've had a wait before being seated. Even though it is more upscale than your typical Mexican restaurant, the chips and salsa were still served on the house, which I appreciate. I really enjoyed the salsa, as it had a little heat and good texture. I got a regular margarita with my meal. While it could have used more salt around the rim, it was still good. The lime did not over power the tequila and it had the perfect amount of sweetness. For my meal I got 3 tacos with a side of their refried beans. I wanted to try their pork options, so I got two that were a Yucatan style and one al pastor. The Yucatan ones were fine but just not for me, as well as the beans, as they were too smokey. The al pastor taco saved my meal, as it was juicy and had so much flavor. Overall it was a fun atmosphere and nice dinner. If you are looking for a nicer restaurant or a good place for a celebration, I would recommend here.

    We arrived at Hacienda Real in Geneva and were initially told there would be a wait for a table…read more Fortunately, our table became available sooner than expected, which was a great start to the evening. We were seated outside around 7:30 PM, and the live music created a nice atmosphere. After being seated, our server brought chips and dip and took our drink orders. My children's drinks and my husband's drink arrived fairly quickly, but I waited quite a while for my drink. The server returned to take the adults' meal orders before my drink arrived, but did not ask for the children's orders and left the table. About an hour into our visit, we still had not received our food. When the children's meals finally arrived, one of the meals was not the cheeseburger that had been ordered. The server stated that a different kids' burger had been ordered and then took the food away. Shortly afterward, the adults' meals arrived. My parents, who joined us later, received their food soon after. While we appreciated being seated earlier than expected and enjoyed the outdoor atmosphere, the service was slow, there appeared to be confusion regarding the children's order, and the overall dining experience took much longer than anticipated. We were done by 910pm

They brought a small bowl of chips and had three different types of salsa in plastic bottles (like the old style ketchup and mustard ones at diners) with three small dishes to put them in. Chips were thick, crispy, and salty. Not sure if they have free refills, as we finished our chips rather fast and they took the bowl away afterwards. I ordered the 22 oz strawberry margarita and it was probably one of the best margs I've had. Came with strawberry slices in the drink and a tajin rim. Great deal for $10. I ended up getting three tacos traditional style: Birria, steak, and chorizo. The birria one was really good, just wish the tortilla was dipped in juice like some of the other birria tacos I've had. It was my first time having chorizo, and I would order it again. The steak taco was good, but nothing special. Service was a little slow despite there only being one other table, but our table was talking anyway so it wasn't too much of an issue. Overall, would go back if I was in the area, but wouldn't go out of my way to go there.
