    Tastes even better the second day. I'd never had Honduran food before and I hadn't spent much time in Belmont-Cragin. Soooo.... it made perfect sense to me to knock two birds out with one stone and get some Honduran grub in the 'hood. To begin with, the restaurant is larger than it seems. Set in a strip mall, form gives way to function, but the function works. Also *extremely* noteworthy: English is not spoken here. You need to come with a Spanish speaker. I spent weeks trying to figure out the menu, hours of operation, etc. by the phone and, finally, just conceded to driving there and poking around. Even though the menu is in English, the service is not and if you don't speak Spanish, you will be frustrated by your experience. You will. That said, my food was enjoyable. There were some hit or miss items so stick with my picks for hits. Hit -- papusa with cheese and beans. Hit -- berry WATER. Don't order your agua fresca con leche. NO! Get it with water and you'll be so much the happier. Every sip I took was refreshing, flavorful and very satisfying. You'll have to take my word on it. Other tried to have a sip, but you know I don't play that. I don't know where your mouth has been. Back up from my beverage. No, not even a new straw will be enough to counter the mystery of your oral history. Sorry. Buy your own. You'll want to. And, you might want to have someone look at *that*. I keed because I love. Hit -- fried chicken with cabbage, Honduran sauce (the name cracks me up; this is tomato and pepper-based; chunky like a salsa, not thick like a paste) and bananas (not plantains). Don't think KFC or, even, your mom's fried chicken. This chicken has a crispy skin that bears a closer texture/taste resemblance to grilled chicken. The components, on their own, aren't very exciting. When mixed together, though, the dish really comes together in a familiar yet comfortably different way. But, like I said, I actually enjoyed my leftovers more than I did the initial meal. Maybe the flavors had time to settle into each other. And, that brings me to my last point -- leftovers! For $9 or so, I had two filling meals. I like that kind of bang for my buck and I think you will too.

    This place is HORRIBLE! Check the Google reviews. The waitresses SUCK, their incoherent. The place is UNSANITARY. And they act like they don't know English and only speak it when it's in their favor. The management doesn't take any complaints serious .. as you can see they rather go back and forth rather than fix their issues

    Such a simple storefront for such great food.

    After many years of a reluctance to head west (maybe it's all the - at least I hope - fireworks I see and hear from over there), I am pleased to report that there is, in fact, life west of Pulaski! And what a tasty life it is. Far from being in some sort of strange, foreign, uninviting world, Super Pollo sits nestled in a mini-mall surrounded by such "strange" wonders as a Big Lots! But beyond the sort of rundown exterior the food inside was top notch. As I had previously discovered with Costa Rican, Honduran resembled Mexican slightly but was different enough to bring new flavors and perspectives into my life. I ordered the Honduran Enchilada "pero no carne." What met my eyes looked like no enchilada I'd ever seen. Open faced on a soft, thick bread it came covered with cabbage (which the menu oddly and hilariously refers to as "babbage") and a hard boiled egg on top of the usual bed of beans and rice. The flavors blended so well together and the cabbage added such a wonderful kick that I began to doubt the Mexican restaurants I was used to's preparation of the dish. And at $7.00 for three, I actually had enough for dinner. Take that local taquerias! The chips and salsa (very close to a pico-de-gallo) were also some of the best I've had. Well worth the trip all on their own. Others at the table found their food hit-or-miss. But, one thing I think we all experienced was some very odd service. We were warned about the lack of English that the staff speaks coming in. But even with our Spanish "translators" in tow (thanks Janet W. and Rafael C.), water took forever to be re-filled and drink and food orders were actually lost. We were a large group but this was still very off-putting. Still the menu is huge and contains more familiar Mexican dishes for the less adventurous. And I definitely want to try some more Honduran food. I'll just, you know, make sure to brush up on my Spanish before a return, simple, not scary at all, trip on the 76 bus.

    Carne asada taco

    Tacos are soooo good!! I got the pollo and carne asada. Both were so authentic. Handmade tortillas. The beans were so good too. I'll be coming back every time I come to this Walmart.

    I traveled to Honduras about four years ago, and instantly fell in love with the food and the culture, so of course I had to find a Honduran place in Chicago. Thanks to the greatness that is Yelp :-), I found this gem on the North side of Chicago. I came on a Sunday afternoon with a pretty good appetite because I knew I would want to try a variety of things. When we walked in we were instantly greeted, and we were told we could sit wherever we wanted. The restaurant had a very comfortable feel, and the music playing in the background made it even better. The menu has a lot of items! Since its a dual Mexican/Honduran restaurant, there's a wide variety of items to choose from. Feeling adventurous, I ordered the baleada and Yucca con Chicharron, and my mom ordered a torta de Lomo(Ribeye). Since everything is made fresh, it took a little time for the food to come out (nothing extreme). When it did come out, everything looked and smelled delicious! The portions were very generous and everything was very flavorful. The only reason I don't give this place 5 stars is because although my mom ordered a lomo torta, she ended up getting a ham and cheese torta. I ordered everything in Spanish so I knew I ordered the lomo, so after asking the waitress why she was given ham instead of lomo she explained that they were out of lomo and a few other items. It wasn't a huge deal, but it would've been better if she told us that prior to bringing out the food. She offered to bring something else, but the torta looked good and we ended up keeping it. So for the cheap prices, and being the only Honduran place around (that I know of) I'd say its a good place to visit!

    This is a Honduran dish called "Cena Tipica" ...was very delish!!

Starting with margaritas (because obviously ‍), queso and chips that were dangerously good, and the chicken empanadas that came out perfectly crispy with so much flavor. We kept looking at each other after every bite like "okay wait... THIS is the best thing here" and then another plate would arrive and prove us wrong again The carnitas fried rice??? I genuinely cannot stop thinking about it. So savory, flavorful, comforting, and packed with crispy carnitas on top with the eggs and pickled onions... literally unreal. And then the skirt steak tacos absolutely stole the show. The steak was cooked perfectly, packed with flavor, and paired so perfectly with all the toppings and sauces. Every single bite tasted fresh and homemade in the best way possible. And can we talk about the ambience for a second because WOW. The music, the energy, the vibe inside, everyone celebrating, the drinks flowing -- it felt like the perfect Cinco de Mayo dinner spot. The service was also AMAZING from start to finish and made the entire experience even better.
