This place has ample seating on the patio, at the bar, and in the booths. While there I noticed the waiters' efficient service whether it was my waiter or another waiter. I was given plenty of complimentary chips and salsa for the table, but after eating a few I couldn't eat anymore because of the greasiness of them. I ordered the enchilada norteña, which I enjoyed the enchiladas themselves but the guacamole and rice were a bit disappointing and lacked flavor.

From sitting down to getting our food was less than five minutes. The food was extremely fair priced. However, I cannot call it authentic. The flour tortillas were clearly purchased at the Walmart supercenter. The El Cabrón burrito I ordered was chopped up chicken breast inside a cold flour tortilla, smothered in queso. The beans were very watery and the rice was very good. Once I mix the beans and rice together, the beans seem to have a little flavor. Did I mention the burrito only had chicken inside nothing else? We also get the mango tacos, which was a mini version of the El Cabron burrito with some mango juice poured over the meat. It was fast. It was an expensive and it was filling. It did not remind me of Mexico. When we ordered the mango tacos, I expected some kind of mango chutney on the chicken, unfortunately, it was like someone opened a can of ocean spray and pour it on the meat. We will return, but it was boring.

Let me say if you don't like spice DO NOT eat the salsa. Plus the salsa is not complimentary like most Mexican places. My food was not very well seasoned but spicy basically lacking flavor, only could feel the "heat". Hubby said his was good. The music was techno which was odd but honestly better than loud mariachi music, honestly. The staff was on their phones a lot! Which is probably why I didn't get a refill for my beverage and it took 15 minutes to get him to come and take the payment for our meal. So basically this was a meh experience at best.

Since I work close to this restaurant, I eat there almost weekly. The building is a remodeled Wendy's restaurant building. They did a great job giving it a casual Mexican restaurant atmosphere. The friendliness of the workers a this restaurant is what first comes to mind. They are a great bunch of guys and work hard to keep the place clean, and keep the food quality and service great. They have the "typical" Mexican restaurant combination menus, for lunch time, and the prices are reasonable. I generally order the Chile Relleno, Taco, Guac Salad combo, but I have had their tamales and quesedillas as well. I cannot say that I was ever disappointed with the food or the service at this restaurant. read more

I love this place. I love how they serve their Tamales. I've always ordered my food to-go and was pleased with everything they put in my bag, chips, salsa, peppers, etc. The price is right and the servings are generous. Try their taco's, I like them with pork. If you don't like them I'd be surprised. read more

The dining room did look like it could use a bit of a refresh in places, but it wasn't anything that took away from our meal. We started with the cheese dip, which had a nice consistency but was a little lacking in flavor. The chips were on the thicker side and tasted a bit stale. I also ordered a horchata, which unfortunately was disappointing. It was very watery and didn't have the rich, creamy flavor I was expecting. For my main dish, I had the choripollo, and I really enjoyed it. The chicken was cooked well, and the combination of flavors was delicious. I just wish it had a little more spice. My husband wasn't a fan of his meal, although he's a pretty picky eater, so your experience may be different. The service was friendly and attentive throughout our visit, which made for a pleasant dining experience. While there were a few things that could be improved, I still enjoyed my meal overall and would consider coming back to try some other menu items.

(Fork required) Served with rice and beans. It wouldn't be enough for a large appetite, but it was perfect for me. I really liked the fact that the beans were an edible temperature and didn't blister the roof of my mouth as with many places. The quacamole could have been better, it was a bit bland, but not bad. The chips and salsa were good, no complaints there. I was REALLY hungry, and completely forgot abut taking a photo when food was placed before me. I need to get better about that. Our server was pleasant, but not very attentive. It wasn't easy to get his attention when we needed something, even though it wasn't busy. (That's the reason I deducted a star.) It's very nicely decorated, lots of seating for larger groups as well as cozier seating for two. All in all, it was a very good lunch experience and I am sure we will eat there again.

Mi Tierra Bonita Mexican Grocery Store (3203 Collinsville Rd, Fairmont City, IL 62201)…read more My love wanted to take me to a place near and dear to him: the very first Mexican restaurant he and his late father dined at when they first moved to St. Louis. It is located in Fairmont City, not too deep into Illinois, situated by farmland and near the raceway. The place is like a mullet: business in the front (store) and a party in the back (restaurant). The aisles of the store have everything one would need, from food staples to household items. We were warmly greeted by our waitress, who proved to be super attentive during our visit--even after we paid. We ordered a top-shelf pitcher of strawberry margaritas. It was a huge pitcher for $32, came with a side pitcher of ice, and we were able to make a total of 12 glasses out of it. They started us off with chips and salsa. The chips were made of super-duper corn and came with two spicy table salsas. For our appetizer, we had guacamole. It was freshly made but lacked salt and lime for what we are used to, so I took my lime from my margarita and squeezed it over the guacamole to make it better. I ordered à la carte: one quesabirria, a grilled chicken taquito, and a chicken gordita. The taquito and quesabirria were on point. The gordita was not the mainstream version of what I had been used to seeing, but still good. I would definitely return!
