Been twice. NEVER GOING BACK! Worst waitress ever. Decided…read moreto give it another try since Elgin has no other breakfast/brunch dining choices. First time NO COFFEE....waitress laughed and said coffee machine broke. The food was served cold and bland; nothing special. Waitress never came around to see if we needed anything. Finally had to get up and go to counter to ask for assistance. Twice now the waitress either ignored us or was blind to us being there. Second time our food must have sat out waiting to be served and was cold and obviously dried out. Waitress was too busy chatting it up with another table, served three other tables that came in after us, talking on phone all whilst we sat ignored and waited ...watched ....waited ....waited and waited while our food sat waiting to be picked up and brought to our table. Absolutely unacceptable. Waitress needs training.

We went here for lunch Friday as we were wanting a gyro. We both ordered the Gyro...I had the combo…read morewhich came with fries and a drink. My wife had the gyro with water. We were wanting to order a side of Saganaki cheese but the owner said he had to stop selling it as nobody ordered it. We were shocked. Apparently most people don't know what it is. Being from the Chicago area that was a key thing at all the Greek restaurants and we've never found anyone in town that made it. The first two times we went here we had it and it was very good. The Gyros we had were huge...really packed with lamb and all the fixings. The only thing we found wrong was the tzatziki sauce was put at the bottom of the pita. With all the fixings and everything that went on top of it you really only tasted the Tzatziki when you took a bite of the bottom. The meat and everything else is really piled on, so if you eat from the top there's no sauce. It would be nice if they would put a schmear of sauce along the whole pita and possibly some halfway in the gyro...or else give you a side of tsatziki to dip it in. They do sell it if you want to order extra. I'll do that next time. Nice place....good food. Their pricing for meals (salmon, etc) is about like the pricing you'd expect at a nice restaurant. Hopefully business will keep going well for them as there's really not much out in the northeast side as far as Greek food.

This is the best Mexican you're going to find around Elgin, seriously dont waste time anywhere…read moreelse. This is NOT a chain, so you're getting some of the best home-cooked food. The staff and owners are AWSOME!! Super friendly, pleasantly attentive, and people who will remember you with a smile the next time you come in. Chavelas has it's own private parking along the side of their building. They offer limited seating outdoor (which is covered) and ample seating indoor with both booth, tabletop, and Bartop options. It's football season, but dont worry as Chavelas has several T.V.'s for your viewing pleasure throughout the restaraunt and at the bar. The restaraunt is always clean which is one thing I always admire about here, they truly care at Chavella's. Lets talk food!! Today I ordered the Chavella's Special which is "a little bit of everything"; absolutely hit the spot!! The menu has all your favorites and some new ones you didn't know about, but be sure to look at the "Specials board" at the front as you walk in. Chavella's offers your normal fountain drinks, Jarritos (my favorite), Horchata, and many others. The full bar can bring a smile as well whether it's a beer, Michelangelo, or their own Sangria!!! If you are loving the fall weather and are looking for soup try their Carne En Su Jugo, it's one of their specials and for a great reason. Ask for their "House hot sauce" if you want a bit more Ying; it's soooooooo goooooooooood and not overbearing. If you make it into South Carolina, and find yourself close to Elgin, be sure to make Chavella's one of your planned stops.

My chile relleno was homemade by the owner who comes in daily at 6 am to prepare sauces, tortillas and other food items because store bought isn't good enough for their customers. They do things "old school " where pride and service and caring still matters and why they make flan from scratch. It's why their Margaritas are enormous and Sangrias have fresh fruit because that little extra means something. Our server Gigi said they are remodeling next week so now it will be even better. Don't settle for Americanized Mexican food , this is authentic and wonderful and made with love by an amazing family. Treat yourself to a culinary delight at Chavela's.

While driving through Elgin, we happened upon the hidden gem Ronnie's Ribs -- and we're so glad we…read morestopped! If you're looking for small-town charm paired with incredible flavor, this is absolutely the place. We even had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Ronnie himself. Hearing a bit about the experiences that inspired him to open the restaurant made the visit feel even more special. We tried the oxtail plate (an occasional special), and it was incredible -- super tender, melt-in-your-mouth meat. The mac and cheese was perfectly cheesy and salty in the best way, and the rice n hash was packed with flavor. Ronnie also let us try some brisket with his vinegar-based BBQ sauce. The brisket was succulent with really unique spices, and the sauce paired with it perfectly. If you're passing through Elgin, it's definitely worth the stop.

Friendly service and a massive amount of food for the price. Easy parking and quick service for takeaway. Overall, quite tasty. Mac and cheese is smoked - and in general, the food carries a stronger smoke flavor that I enjoyed. Cole slaw had a nice tang. Baked beans average at best. The main courses - really really tasty hash and rice. House made bbq sauce a nice tomato and vinegar. Ribs are strong contender. Well worth a visit if you are in the area!

The black woman at this location (I believe she could be a manager of some sort) is the most rude,…read moreloud, disrespectful and impatient person I have ever met. This is my second run-in with her. Today, I get to the window (after waiting about 30 minutes in line), wanting to make sure my order is correct (because the previous day it was not and I had to pay again), I ask her to check to make sure all items were on the ticket. She acted like she was annoyed, had other things to do and that I didn't matter. I frequent this location regularly and anytime I interact with her she is curt with me displaying no customer service etiquette or the ability to listen. She appears to have no respect for people and act as though she has a right to unload her misery on others. This employee needs to be trained (or re-trained) on appropriate/respectful conduct when interacting with customers/the public or find another line of employment. My patronage pay the salaries of the employees and a little kindness goes a long way.
