This place is gross. If you're looking for Mexican food in the area--as I was--don't trust the Yelp…read morereviews. Taco Bell or starving is a better option. The restaurant was completely empty on a Saturday night. Should've been my first clue. When I ordered, I chose to dine in (planned to sit on the patio) and was given a basket of weird looking chips, along with a heated cup of red sauce that tasted like it was meant for a pizza. It was gross. I ordered the steak enchiladas with red mole sauce. As I was paying for my order, I saw the young man working in the back begin preparing it. He grabbed 3 tortillas and then searched through plastic containers of premade content (Taco Bell in a slightly different format). The outside tables were infested with ants. When I got my food, I picked though it, but nothing was appetizing. Don't trust any positive Yelp reviews for this place. And don't go here!

I stopped in about 12:30pm on a Friday and there was only 2 other people there which concerned me. I ordered a combo number 1 and an order of chips and salsa.

Popped in for some drinks and so glad we did. Our server Hector was amazing! Owner popped over and…read moresaid hi, always a nice touch. Added some shots in champagne glasses- even nicer. I religiously decline shots, in a champagne glass though... sold- guess I've always just been served the wrong glass for it. Cute decor- photo opp wall and some slot machines always always a plus! We were in the bar area/ jungle off set room. Assumed initially we'd have to go to the bar for service- totally fine- Hector was on his A game and took great care of us. Highly recommend this place! Looking forward to going back! We didn't eat but heard the food is great! Cheers!

First time at LCMR tonight, here are some thoughts:…read more -When you walk in the place is very colorful, has a spirited vibe. -We sat down and they brought out chips and salsa--a milder and a spicier one. We didn't like either. -My wife ordered guacamole and it was an upgrade over the salsa, but not great. -I ordered the tacos al pastor. The pork was on the dryer side, didn't love the overall presentation. -They did have live music, which was fun and added to the ambiance! -I'll have to come back and try the enchiladas. Not highly recommended.

Based on our one visit, I can highly recommend this place…read more Food was excellent, we were allowed to sit anywhere we wanted (we chose a slightly larger table). Man waiter was very nice and accommodating - even took our order and repeated it back to us... without writing it down. There were some tvs on and some Spanish "rock videos" being played, but it was at a soft volume and some of the songs being played were pretty cool Prices were decent, though we went on a night where they had special prices for tacos. I understand this place can get very busy/hectic and loud, especially when there is live music being played or live bands - so - we can understand some people may not like that type of ambience or "crowded loud feel". We will come back here...

The nachos you get at the beginning are very good. The steak quesadilla was greasy. the to go order - We ordered a lot of tacos and they put 4 tacos in one foil. I found that a little strange. I would prefer 2 in one foil. they were still good when I got them to work. the cheese quesadilla was good as well. so I do recommend coming here on Tuesdays and Thursdays when the tacos are $1.50. We will come back.

Food was delish!!…read more Best guacamole we have ever had (accidentally vegan for me) They also had a flour tortillas taco salad shells for me (I have severe Crohn's Disease and have to eat low fiber, low residue - so no corn) My husband said that his authentic Mexican meat meal was the best that he ever had 4 stars because nobody really enjoys the rice and beans part of the meal just paying for bland blah on top of more bland blah 4 stars for service as well

This place refuses to put a normal amount of protein in their burritos!!…read moreI requested and PAID for double steak and it may have been smaller than ordering it normal (which is already overly expensive). They charged me an extra $6 too. It's a shame because the place is tasty but so offensively overpriced. I'm done. There are too many better places that don't rip you off. Both Guac and Tacos in Elmhurst refuse to give you a normal amount of meat.

Disappointed in…read morethe service, it wasn't busy at the time and had to remind both the owner and the bus boy for my one horchata drink, as I watched them provide drinks to several other tables that entered after us. The bus boy brought out complimentary toasted chips for each table, however skipping my table. The food quality was disappointing, we ordered the 3 pupusas dinner $15 and 1 horchata drink. Each pupusa had very limited filling and the pupusa itself was undercooked and looks like one spoonful of beans & undercooked rice were the sides. So if you eat a hearty meal, this is not the place for you. Unfortunately, we won't be returning.

Del Toro Taco Grill, formerly known as Cilantro, has gone downhill significantly over the past…read morecouple of years. As a long-time customer who has been coming here for years, sometimes getting tacos every single week, it's disappointing to see how much the quality and overall experience have declined. This used to be a place I genuinely enjoyed and felt was worth visiting, but unfortunately, that's no longer the case. One of my biggest frustrations is the declining food quality, including being served stale tortillas that take away from the overall taste and freshness of the tacos. For a restaurant that specializes in tacos, fresh tortillas should be a basic expectation, not something customers have to worry about. Another major frustration is how stingy the woman who appears to be the owner is with the salsa. Salsa is a basic part of the taco experience, and customers shouldn't feel like they're asking for a favor just to get a reasonable amount. What makes this even more frustrating is that the restaurant offers unlimited salsa when you dine in, but that same courtesy doesn't extend to takeout orders. If customers are paying for tacos to enjoy at home, why should they be treated differently? It feels cheap and unfair, especially to loyal customers who have supported this business for years. My recommendation: Save your money and consider other taco spots!
