I was in Crystal Lake and was looking for a place to get lunch. We ended up at Antojitos for…read moreauthentic Mexican food. The restaurant is not for inside dining so be prepared for ordering to go. I ordered enfrijoladas for $12. I've never had them and didn't know what to expect. The price was somewhat steep but the portion and weight was definitely hefty. The food was scrambled eggs layered with corn tortillas, beans, cheese, and sauce. I wasn't crazy about it but it is more my personal taste with corn tortillas. This happened to be a solid dish and I would recommend checking them out.

So if you're craving some good Mexican food. This is a spot to try for sure!…read more I got the Burrito La Fonda. Couldn't have asked for a yummier burrito. It's covered in cheese and your choice of red or green sauce. Or both. Of course you have a choice of meat..but it's lovely nice spot. Comfortable sitting but no sitting to dine in. Other than that, do check out this superb joint.. Thank you La Fonda!!!

Best Carnitas on the Planet!!! Had 3 street tacos: Ribeye…read morewas incredible. Al Pastor was good - not the best I've ever had, but I enjoyed it. Carnitas...best I've ever had hands down. Unbelievable flavor, moist & tender. Tried a tamale - pork with red sauce - not bad, would get more carnitas instead next time I come here. Had a queso fundido, tasted good, but it was so thick, it was hard to eat. It was hot as F¥{€, but still thick as $#!+, hard to enjoy. Bartender was awesome. Will definitely return. Chips & salsa are phenomenal!

I hadn't been here in at least a year. So at the last minute I came for a late Saturday dinner. I…read morewas surprised to see that the restaurant now has a two sided bar. That means a larger space for dining. It wasn't very crowded for 8pm and we were seated right away. Im sure at true dinner hour it was filled. Our server was great and gave us just the right amount of time between cocktails, appetizers and food. Dinner was great, Queso Fundido with chorizo appetizer and steak fajitas. The Queso Fundido was really heavy, not canned saucy cheese but real cheese with chorizo. The steak fajitas were great with super tender steak and more veggies than I could eat or cared for. Rice, beans and tortillas were served on the side to make it super filling. One thing to mention however is that the food here isn't inexpensive so be prepared to pay.

New little gem that we stumbled on after checking out Savers next door…read more This is a New Mexican Grocery Store that opened up about two months ago. Nice, organized & clean. Large meat/deli section. We were hungry and discovered their little counter order restaurant within the grocery store. Between the 2 of us we had the Mexican chicken tacos with cilantro & onions. Sorry - I took the pictures after I devoured most of the taco. It was very good & I highly recommend. They also had a counter where they sold ice cream. Maybe next time we will try that. They have another location in downtown Crystal Lake located at 131 N Main Street. The employee that took our order was very nice. English was not her first language so one of the other employees helped her ring up our order. We had our hot meal in about 5 minutes. We will return!
