My friend grew up in Glen Ellyn and absolutely loves this place. I was staying with her during our…read morepart of our Chicago trip and we ended up eating here one night for dinner. Los, as she calls it, serves up some delicious more authentic Mexican. It is a fast casual eatery that seems to be a favorite amongst locals. The menu consists of a lot of your tex-mex staples like tacos, enchiladas, burritos, and more! You can dine in or carry out, although you get complimentary chips and salsa if you dine in. Service is good and the food comes out quickly. If you order separately, you have to order and pay at the front, otherwise your server will take your order. The inside is very casual and not the cleanest, but not to the point where it's unappealing. The chips were decent and were warm when they arrived. They looked more like Tostitos, but they appeared fresh so I assumed they were made in house. The salsa is great, a little sweet, a little spicy--perfect! I ended up ordering three steak tacos and a pork tamale. The tacos do not come with complimentary rice and beans. I personally appreciated this as I wasn't in the food for either on this particular occasion. Food came out about 8-10 minutes later. Served made to order, everything looked phenomenal! The steak tacos had two tortillas each, filled with ample amounts of tender steak, some shredded cheese, shredded lettuce, and topped with tomato slices. I loved the corn tortillas as they seemed homemade. Homemade tortillas are a game changer and automatically amplify any Mexican dish. The steak was flavorful, a little chewy, but still good. The tacos were packed with steak and they were very filling. My friend got the chicken tacos and they came with onion and cilantro. These appeared more "authentic" than mine, but I still liked mine. Now the pork tamale was easily the best I've had. The corn masa had the perfect texture and the pork was very flavorful. I would recommend this as a side for sure! Overall, I enjoyed Los and can see why my friends Cole here for a causal dinner together. It seems like the perfect spot to grab a chill dinner with friends. Food seems authentic, service is decent, and the vibes are super chill. I will say, this place gives "hole in the wall" kind of vibes, but trust me the food is great! I really loved the homemade tortillas and the pork tamale, both hit the spot. Portions are large and the food isn't expensive at all. Would definitely try it if you haven't already.

I also tried the churro, and it was the perfect way to finish everything off. When I walked in to pick it up, I wasn't expecting much, but the vibe immediately stood out. It felt relaxed but still fun at the same time. People were laughing at the bar, couples were sitting close and holding hands at their tables, it just had this mix of energy that you don't see everywhere. It was like a blend of different moods all working together in the best way. The host was the only person I really interacted with, but they were super nice and helpful, which made the experience even better. I came in for takeout, but after seeing the atmosphere and how good the food was, I already know I need to go back and actually sit down and enjoy the place for real.

This was an excellent option for a large group because all items were easily shared! I had a few of the various tacos that were offered, however, the asada tacos were by far my favorite. The steak was very flavorful and went exceptionally well with the available toppings and sauces. The tacos were plenty to fill me up yet were light enough to enjoy during a busy workshop day! The rice and sauces were also a good addition to the tacos. Depending on how much spice you wanted, the sauces provided additional flavors. Also, it was nice to be able to choose which sauces one wanted to pair with their tacos. All items were prepared fresh! The catering provided by Cilantro Grill was a great option for the workshop. The food was full of flavor, the portion sizes were abundant and the taco options provided a way for each attendee to pick what they preferred. I particularly loved the asada tacos and would definitely select them again!

I decided to try this place while passing through Lombard, despite the restaurant being nearly…read moreempty at lunch which, in hindsight, should've been my first red flag. I ordered a ground beef burrito, expecting, well, ground beef. What I got instead was something with the consistency of dog food and the color of pink salmon and turns out, from what I can identify, it was corned beef, not ground beef. One bite in and I knew something was off. It tasted awful, like some kind of canned frankenstein concoction, and not at all what I paid for. I get that beef prices are high right now, but swapping in canned corned beef paste and calling it a "ground beef burrito" feels like a straight-up scam. Beware: if you're expecting actual ground beef in your burrito, go elsewhere fast. Otherwise you'll be paying real money for something that doesn't even resemble what's on the menu. Update: Owner's rebuttal is classic "don't believe your lying eyes" playbook; unsurprisingly the statements made is quite verbose but lacks any substance much like their food.
