I had to use the restroom next to this business and unfortunately, they did not have anything to dry my hands. I walked out and noticed this woman sitting at this business, and I explained to her that the bathroom did not have anything to wipe my hands with and the hand dryer was broken. I then kindly asked if she would mind if I just got a couple napkins. She gave me a pretty dirty look and said " I will do it this time, but I don't usually don't just give these out to customers.". Now I can understand if I asked for any enormous amount or if I was rude in anyway. But neither of those things happened. My hands were soaking wet dripping on the floor. I also have a very painful condition in my hands so having to use hot or cold water is pretty excruciating on them. So getting them dry quickly is very important. I looked at her and replied with "well I'm only asking for a couple of napkins, I don't think that you needed to be rude about that." I took the napkins and started walking away, and she proceeded to get loud with me and go into detail about how she doesn't just give these out to customers. I turned around and told her very clearly, that I would not be returning to her business and I have been there a couple times before, but I definitely won't be using a business that treats me like this. She then got loud again, telling me that she did not care what I did and if I came back or not. I then turned around and looked at her, and I asked if she was the owner or if she just worked there. She said she was the owner. I was shocked. I told her, well an owner should absolutely not be acting like this. It's also the holidays, you could be a little bit kinder. It's just napkins. If it was that big of a deal, I could pay for them. She then proceeded to tell me that, that is what the hand dryer is for. Then took her hands and literally showed me how you would use them under a hand dryer. Absolutely uncalled for. So I told her I was going to take a picture and post this on this page and she sure stopped getting loud with me then. Now, don't get me wrong, I understand that a lot of people take advantage of small businesses. But there is no way that I would have turned somebody down that was standing there with soaking wet hands and could see they were in need. If I were to give napkins away for free at my business, and I want to make this clear again, she was the owner, I could've made this an opportunity to gain a customer or a return customer at this point by offering if there was anything I would like to purchase or to please make sure to come back and visit me, etc. I just thought I would share this so others knew how some of the customers were treated at this location. I know there's a lot of people out there like myself that are big on customer service and especially when it's the owner of a company. If this were just an employee, I really would not have posted. I do believe in supporting local and small businesses, but I will not be supporting this one again. Also, with looking online at their reviews where this business is advertised, there are quite a few negative reviews against the owner herself being rude to other customers as well.

We also ordered the taco (3) combo with 2 chorizo and one carne asada taco with rice and beans. We also got a side order of rice and beans. This restaurant is pricey. The good - rice, beans, chorizo, carne asada tacos are good. The salsas they bring out to the table in bottles are good. The bad- birria tacos, chips and salsa. The birria tacos have a tiny amount of shredded beef and loads of greasy cheese. The meat has good flavor but you barely get any shredded beef! The chips are bland and the salsa is just liquid ( no texture) with some flavor. Tacos combo is 12 dollars, birria tacos combo is 15 dollars. I would recommend getting a taco combo (3) with 2 chorizo and 1 carne asada taco with rice and beans. I wouldn't recommend the birria tacos. The price is high for the amount of food that you get. Our lunch was 36 dollars without tip! Water only to drink.

Finally someone saw us after we were walking around and a man told us to sit wherever. They may be understaffed because it looked like there was only one server and probably one staff. It was pretty empty, which most of the occupation being at the bar area. I like the decorations they had and plants all around. I ordered the enchiladas mole pablano under the lunch special. The waiter gave us the regular menu, and I had to get up to grab the lunch special menu. No worries though. The mole sauce is earthy, pepper, and nutty. Comes with rice and beans. Green habanero hot sauce in a bottle was very spicy and flavorful. Big portions. They also give free salsa and chips with free refills. Very affordable price, long wait time but it's understandable.

I was a little confused when first arriving opening the door to a number of bakers racks in the middle of the floor - it felt like you were entering the 'back door'. There was also a slightly unsettling 'alarm' that rang as the door was opened, not your typical 'ding dong' of a shop door. I picked up 5 pieces of tres leches cake - $4 a piece... a definite value! The gentleman behind the counter diligently and carefully packed each dripping moist piece of cake into its own to go box. Each piece of cake is topped with a glazed strawberry half - the cake was absolutely delightful. Moist, creamy, utterly delicious! I will definitely be back and highly recommend!

I didn't understand why at first, but then we noticed that most of the chairs were already stacked on the tables and the staff was sweeping the floor. I asked if they were closed, but the man at the door said they were still open, so we were seated. Before we even had a chance to look at the menu, a server came over and told us we needed to move because they were about to mop that section. We moved without complaint. Our food came out fairly quickly, and it actually tasted good. Unfortunately, right as we started eating, they began mopping the floors with some kind of strong cleaner that made us nauseated. They mopped right by our table--my husband even joked that he was surprised they didn't ask us to lift our feet. By that point, several employees already had their coats on and were giving us looks like they just wanted us gone. We felt rushed, uncomfortable, and couldn't even finish our meal because of the chemical smell. The food itself was good, but the experience was terrible. No restaurant should start mopping floors with harsh cleaners while customers are still eating. That's just basic common sense. We won't be back.

I love that it's queso sauce and not shredded cheese, made the fries hold together a lot better. Every bite had a good amount of toppings and sauce. Highly recommend ordering this! The server was nice but it was a little slow to get things. It looked like 1-2 servers for the whole restaurant. Also note that to pay, they give you the bill, you go to the counter to pay. I waited a bit before realizing you bring the bill to the counter. Inside is nicely decorated, lots of seatings.

Review Visit: May 13th, 2015…read more This ice cream is '¡muy caliente!" I knew Mexican soda was a thing but Mexican ice cream? Not in the capacity to have it's own ice cream shack. Well, queue my surprise when I learned that there was a Mexican ice cream shop in Peoria. One that has a name that leads you to think that maybe... just maybe this place is delicious. Doing what I normally do (as avid readers of this blog will know), I gathered up one of my friends who likes to travel (Matt) and we headed over the Illinois River (not the Peoria River) to get some ice cream (and add more bracketed comments to this paragraph for no reason). The location of Las Delicias is a bit of an odd one. Actually, those whole road of shops is not a greatly planned out area. You have all these shops along Main St but the parking situation leaves a lot to be desired. You usually have to hunt for a place to park and sometimes walk a small distance to your destination. I just wanted to put this in here as a warning should you want to venture down Main St. Matt and I found a place to park and headed in. Upon entering, we were greeted by a friendly cashier and shop that was small and felt homely (in a good way). This place truly felt like it was a family-owned. Matt and I browsed the handful of offerings and I was surprised by the flavors. Granted, this was over 5 years ago, so I don't remember the specifics and I failed to take a photo of what was being offered at the time. I grabbed some kind of strawberry ice cream while Matt got himself some flavor that I never heard of before. We paid for our ice cream desserts and headed out. I think there were a few chairs inside to sit but due to the small-sized of the restaurant, we opted to eat outside as we walked back to my car. I am a sucker for strawberry (and peanut butter) flavored treats. At this point in my life, I had quite a few different strawberry-flavored items but this one is the only one that instantly blew me away. Something about the quality of this dessert was unreal. It was far and above beyond anything you would find in the store unless you option for the expensive stuff. This stuff tasted homemade and had love in every scoop. I can't properly describe how much I loved this ice cream cone and how sad I was when it was gone. If you find yourself in Peoria and are on a circuit of trying out all the ice cream places, this one needs to be at the top of your list. You won't regret it. If you do go and you do regret it, lo siento. That's what life is all about though, right? Trying new things and seeing what the world has to offer.
