Taco Fixx in Mokena is hands-down one of our favorite places to eat. This family-run business is…read morefilled with some of the warmest, kindest people you'll ever meet, and they truly make you feel like part of the family every time you walk through the door. The food is absolutely delicious and consistently amazing every single visit. But what really makes this place special is the way they interact with their customers. They genuinely care about people, take time to talk with you, and create such a welcoming atmosphere. My daughter absolutely loves coming here--or honestly, demands it at least once a week. If it were up to her, we'd probably be eating Taco Fixx every single day. It's rare to find a place with food this good and people this genuine. Wishing this wonderful family and their business nothing but continued success.

The beans and rice tasted odd, maybe they used a really salty seasoning mix. It is not like anything I'm used to having with Mexican food and I didn't like it. But given how difficult it is to find edible food on this stretch of highway I would definitely stop here again, probably for tacos al a cart so I wouldnt have the rice and beans. The place is a stall inside of the truck, notna real food truck. It's is designed to look like the side of a food truck. That's not a negative but it's to help you find it if you're looking for it. Also, they were pretty busy on a Friday afternoon, so I guess they're popular here. I can see why they would be.

NUT ALLERGY WARNING!!…read more My wife and I got food from here yesterday, we got some loaded al pastor fries and asado vampiro. The first few bites good, until my wife started complaining about tingling in her mouth and some abdominal pain. We called the restaurant and asked about any possible nuts and found out they used nuts on their marinade. When we asked what kind, they refused to give that out since it was a secret recipe. Please consider putting an allergy warning in your menu to prevent any preventable trips to the hospital. Luckily my wife only took a bite and not the whole dish and didn't need her EpiPen.

I would say the food was very good. It was my son and I -- we ordered 2 proteins (brisket and pulled pork), 2 sides (potato salad and garlic mashed, and 2 sodas (served in cans). It was a little different with everything being served in a bowl (we opted for the non-sandwich route) -- see pic. I guess I'm not overall used to having a shredded brisket, but nonetheless, it was good. They only have 2 varieties of BBQ sauce -- one with and one without jalapenos. Both had a decent kick, but the one had a definite jalapeno flavor (not really my favorite). The owner (at least I think he was the owner) was nice and checked in with us a couple of times for anything we needed. I know meat is expensive, but I thought it was a bit pricey for the serving sizes. Our bill for lunch was $40. And, I wish they had a few more sauce options. The BBQ sauce they had was good, but some other options are always nice. Overall, I don't know that this would be a regular stop for me because of the cost, but it would be decent for a splurge now and then.

Food was good and service was quick, considering that there were a lot of people around downtown for a bicycle race (they also have a walk-up window outside and a lot of the muddy bikers were ordering there rather than coming in). Ambiance is country casual, with rough-hewn wood tables and at least a couple of chairs made from cast iron tractor seats. The memory of Strum's lingered with me for the rest of the day, since I was full into the evening from our tasty lunch and my clothes were also redolent of BBQ smoke!

I have to share just how special our takeout experience from Papi Chulo's was! We decided to grab…read moresome food to go, and even though we weren't dining in, we felt the warmth and care that makes this place so special. We absolutely loved their queso--honestly, it's a must-have. The carne asada fries were delicious, and the Thursday quesadilla special was such a great deal at just $8. Everything tasted incredible, even after the drive home. But the real heart of our experience was David. Even though we just picked up our order, this "wee little man" (as we affectionately called him) poured so much heart into making our food and just brightened our day. His kindness and the care he showed made us feel like we were truly part of the Papi Chulo's family, even just picking up takeout. We can't recommend them enough--amazing food, heartwarming service, and the kind of personal touch that makes you want to come back again and again.

Yelp to the rescue again!…read more As with another yelper, I also grew up in Southern California, and spent half my life there. And then spent another 15 in Texas, and ate my way all over the Southwest. Get there early - when I arrived at 7, they were out of carne asada and picodillo. I ended up getting the taco dinner with carnitas. It ended up being a very good choice; most times I get carnitas, the meat is fatty and too chewy for my taste. These carnitas were lean, and muy delicioso. My heart skipped a beat when I saw they had elotes (Mexican corn). It's just as good as what I would get at 2 am at Fuel City in Dallas. I also got a couple churros for the road (my plan was to dip them in a Culver's concrete mixer, but they didn't make it that far). The churros were fresh out of the fryer, nice and hot and crunchy. I was too full to try the tamales. Maybe next time. They now accept credit cards with a minimum purchase of $5. Joliet is lucky to have this place. You will never look at Taco Bell the same. It's kind of difficult to get to it, just follow the US 52 signs. It's worth the drive.

Has mostly an authentic menu. Only complaint besides the prices is there's not a lot for vegetarians to eat except appetizers and such. Authentic menu of classic Mexican favorites. It's just kind of limited. The drinks are in a refrigerator you get yourself. It's about $4 for a bottle of Mexican beer. That's a lot. Food is better. The only thing is there's not much for vegetarians. Guacamole of course. It's about $6 for a cup. This was chunky and fresh. Has tacos but these are all beef and chicken. They also have breakfast if you're early to get here. For the most part the flavors are good. It has a pretty limited menu because the place is small.

Taco House in Elmhurst, Illinois was a moment of pure, unadulterated joy. The question wasn't if I would go, but how quickly. After two visits--one short visit and a second, full-scale adventure with the family--I can confidently declare this new outpost a great success. The Feast: This wasn't a tasting; it was a mission. We embarked on a comprehensive tour of the menu: · The Tacos: The Vigilante (x2, for good reason), the boldly named Koopa's Revenge, the west-coast inspired Californiacation (x2, again, a wise choice), the poultry-packed Bad Mother Clucker, and the refreshing Aqua Taco. Each was a distinct masterpiece of flavor and texture, from robust, seasoned meats to crisp, inventive slaws and salsas. · The Support Cast: The Killer Queso appetizer lived up to its name--a creamy, spicy, dippable revelation that had us fighting over the last chip. The chicken nuggets were a testament to the fact that even the simplest dish can be elevated; perfectly golden and tender. · The Libations: My Strawberry Margarita was the ideal balance of sweet, tart, and strong--a crafted cocktail, not a sugary slushie. The kids were thrilled with their Sprites (a classic done right), as was my husband. The Verdict: The food is nothing short of amazing. But a great restaurant is more than its plate; it's an experience. The atmosphere is effortlessly trendy and welcoming, punctuated by a blast of nostalgic decor that sparks conversation and smiles. The soundtrack provided a vibrant, fun energy that complemented the meal perfectly. Most importantly, the staff was genuinely welcoming and attentive, making us feel like regulars on only our second visit. In the world of fast-casual dining, this place isn't just playing the game; it's changing it. We are already plotting our next visit and countless more after that. Zap! Taco House isn't just a new restaurant; it's our new favorite spot.
