I used the drive thru to take my order and there's wasn't many people there at the time. But normally this place can get packed. They do have a couple of tables inside for indoor seating. I ordered the 8 piece family pack. Which comes with a whole chicken with green onions and jalapeños and 3 sides. I got rice, mashed potatoes, and extra green onions. Everything is so delicious. It also comes with 4 sauces. 2 red ones and 2 different green ones. My favorite is the lighter green one. It has a little kick but it's still pretty good.

After a Sunday church service, my family and I stopped by this Mexican gem around 1 PM. The place…read morewas surprisingly quiet, so we might have just beaten the lunch rush. From the moment we walked in, the staff greeted us warmly and handed us menus to place our to-go order. Our food was ready in about 15 minutes--impressive timing--and they brought it out directly to us. The portions were generous, and let me tell you, the flavors were everything we hoped for and more. I went for the birria tacos with consomé, and wow--tender, juicy meat paired with the rich, savory broth. My family decided to go for the machetes, and let's just say no one was left hungry! While it's a little on the pricey side, in my opinion, the quality and taste more than make up for it. This spot is definitely worth a visit if you're craving Mexican food with bold flavors and hearty portions. We'll be back--maybe next time we'll try dining in to soak up the atmosphere a bit more!

AUTHENTIC GEM If you…read morefind yourself in the area and you are looking for some authentic Mexican food then this is the place. If you come at lunch then you will be waiting in line because I'm not the first person to find this hidden gem. Many people know about it and on Tuesdays they have $1.25 traditional tacos available. I wish I could claim finding this place on Yelp but my wife is the one who dragged me in here. It was her second visit and my first and I loved it. I really loved the owners. They are incredibly sweet and you can find both of them at the front counter taking orders. This is a true family business. If your looking for authentic food then this is the place. My girls orders chicken and steak tacos topped with onions & cilantro. If you want them American style you can order they Supreme which tops them with lettuce, tomato, cheese & sour cream. I decided to go with a steak burrito topped with green sals, crema & cheese. I was truly impressed. I typically get my burritos wet when traveling in Southern California because they just get it. Most Chicago places don't get a wet burrito. So I was just in love with my plate of food. I shared a few bites with the girls and they loved it. They might not be getting tacos on our next visit because my little one was planning her next meal already and a burrito was on her mind. So if you find yourself North of Chicago and you are craving affordable authentic tacos then this place is worth it. You'll be thanking me later because this place is a gem.

Service was very friendly, even though I do not speak Spanish, everything came out 100% as ordered. They start with the standard chips and salsas, four types, one being a ceviche (chopped fish), which my sister in law loved. Guacamole was perfectly flavored, the chips are cooked in house, some were a bit less crisp than I would like.. I had the Quesabirria tacos , and they were awesome.
