    Steak Burrito

    Food is generally good here, and I am a regular at this restaurant. But I just took a bite of my steak burrito and found a pretty big piece of bone in there (circled in red). I bit into it and it was painful. Quite disappointing. The rest of the burrito was fine and tasty.

    Zoom in, lol

    Cool new spot in a busy strip mall...The menu is large. There are tacos, burritos, sandwiches, tostadas, and more. You pick your item and then pick the protein. The cashier was so friendly, very welcoming and patient when explaining all that they have. They have agua frescas and horchata to go for $3.75. That is a fun option. I ordered a single tostada, keep it vegetarian. It was $3.99 plus tax. For keeping it veggie, I was disappointed that there was only one slice of avocado. It also did not have much flavor. Salt is needed for sure and salsa was a must. I asked for green salsa. I receive two and a fork and napkin in a separate bag, stapled to keep that all separate from the warm food. I'll try them again, they are so close. But, I really need more punch to my veggie options.

    Flavorless "carnitas" burrito no meat!!!

    Severely disappointed... was looking forward to tryin a new place & based on reviews chose this. I ordered torta special & burrito special. Both come with a drink which I waited to grab until the meals were done so drink would still be cold. The cashier says to me as I grab the first one... uhm it's only one drink with each meal... yeah?? Ok? And I've only gotten one. She then proceeds to LOOK in my bag to verify I'm telling the truth. lol THAT was tacky & pissed me off.... Anyway- Then for my burrito I said no lettuce or tomato.... Apparently they thought I said no meat too! I can count maybe 2 pieces of meat in whole burrito. Thanks for the flavorless bean burrito!!! Not pleasing to my appetite whatsoever!!! Don't think I'll be back. Tasted like dough & beans lol

    Hair in food.

    Customer service here on 1/17/26 at 12pm was completely terrible. First off, we ordered 3 meals and they messed up one out of three orders and then we asked for both red and green salsa and they proceeded to only give us 3 green salsas. I attempted to ask for some red salsa and they wanted to charge me for it. Mind you they only gave enough salsa to be begin with for 1 meal and I got three meals. Went home and found a hair in my loaded fries and I called them and they didn't apologize, they asked for a photo of the hair and proceeded to ask me to drive back to their location and bring it back in for proof that there was hair in the food before issuing me a refund. Upon arrival, no communication and no apology for the inconvenience or anything. Everyone working there just stared at me and grabbed the food from me and grabbed the hair from the food and examined it for a few minutes and then just gave me a receipt stating a refund for that one meal would be issued. This location sucks so bad. The one in rolling meadows is much better, they don't mess up the order and they are kind and pay attention to detail. I advise everyone to not get food from this location. Take the extra drive to get better service.

    The restaurant is new and clean, a nice casual environment with a good amount of seating. Staff was friendly and highly focused on quality. Finally, a restaurant that gives more than a ramekin of salsa with an order of chips! The veggie burrito was elevated with fresh ingredients, including green leaf lettuce! The guacamole and salsa are both fresh and delicious. My food order came out in just a few minutes, but while I was waiting, I was told the cucumber/lemon water is a must try!

    Chicken breakfast bowl

    I've been here 3 times already, the location is extremely convenient!! Here's what we've tried and would rank out of 5: -beef Taco: 5/5 the seasoning of their beef is the best beef taco I have ever tried -chicken taco: 3/5 the chicken tastes more Mediterranean to us it's okay but not my favorite (normally chicken is our fav) -shrimp taco: 4/5 -steak taco: 4/5 -rice: 5/5 perfect for my picky toddler Breakfast: -Menudo: 4/5 -chicken breakfast bowl: 4/5 would have been 5/5 but chicken tastes more Mediterranean so should have went with steak or beef -steak chilaquiles: 5/5 very spicy but very good The staff is friendly and the place is extremely clean, the kitchen staff is extremely clean as well and you can easily see in to it to see what they are doing which I enjoy because it makes me feel like I am eating a safer meal.

Our tacos, enchiladas, soups, and churros came to us piping hot and well-presented. I wouldn't say that the food was bursting with flavor, but yummy nonetheless. Chips and salsa were fresh. If you're looking to have a comfortable seat, eat, drink, and have good conversation versus pickup a paper bag and go home, I'd say try Casa Tequlas Mexican Grill.

    Great, great, great food!…read more I think this place has been here awhile now, but only recently did I get a chance to try it. I helped my father and my stepmother get their new iPhones at the T-Mobile next door and so they treated me and my daughter to dinner at Casa Tequilas! My stepmother said the fried tilapia was the best thing on the menu, so I ordered it and was absolutely shocked at the quality and portion (see photos below). The fish was fried perfectly, the accompanying sides were delicious and it was well worth the price. The service was great and the other dishes were well enjoyed too... my father got a burger (I know, not very Mexican) and my daughter got the chicken fingers. Both their plates were empty. Service was great and attentive and the ambience in the restaurant was warm and festive. It is hard to believe this used to be a pizza joint!

    This place is awesome. But I also knew what I was getting into…read more Yes, this place is expensive. Yes, this place is loud. Yes, this place is meant for instagram. THAT'S THE POINT! This is meant to be your crazy expensive birthday bash or celebration, not an every day place. We are lucky to have a gem like this in Schaumburg with very busy servers who try their absolute best to give you a flashy service with delicious food. Are you seriously expecting this to be $50 meal for four? No way. There are many places you can get the same thing. Every time I've gone here, I've spent good money that I worked hard for, and have had great memories in the process. If you're expecting a simple Mexican restaurant, this is not your place. This is high end and very busy. Make a reservation, call in advance to make sure it's set. OpenTable is used by many restaurants, so you can't blame this restaurant for OpenTable's mistakes. The Los Tres Huastecos was PHENOMENAL. The Camarones Calavera was really fun to watch, experience, and eat. I don't drink, but my family loved their flashy drinks (the Deseo was their favorite). They made sure my father felt special on his birthday with a sash, a custom menu (which we requested for in advance with our reservation), and most servers took a moment to say happy birthday even when they weren't serving our table!! Chris was a fantastic server who despite being very busy, did a wonderful job with his service. I won't defend a place for no reason; I truly had a wonderful time that deserves its praise. I research everywhere I go, so obviously when my paycheck hasn't cleared, I'm not going here. But you also wouldn't go to Fogo De Chao or Hell's Kitchen and expect it to be as cheap as my burger at a Chili's (which I love as well). (Also for the comments about the guac, I do agree, but I've also seen the same size portion at other chains for the same price. *cough* south of the boarder *cough*)

They offer these fun drink packages with sparklers and a whole crew coming out to hype you up--it's honestly such a cool touch and makes the night feel extra special. Just a heads up, it does get pretty loud--but in a good way. The music, energy, and overall vibe really bring the place to life, so if you're into that lively atmosphere, you'll love it. We went all in and ordered one of the giant shareable drinks for our group of six. It was definitely worth it for the experience, though a bit light on alcohol given the size. Pro tip: order a round of shots too--they serve them in this awesome airplane presentation, which just adds to the fun. Food-wise, everything was really solid. The octopus was a standout--perfectly cooked and super flavorful. The only letdown was the salmon; the portion felt a bit small for an entrée. Overall, great vibes, fun presentation, and a perfect place to celebrate with a group. Would definitely go back for another occasion.

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.

We stood at the door for about 20 minutes before someone finally told us the wait would be 1-2 hours. Keep in mind, the place is pretty small and already crowded, so there's barely any room to stand while you wait. After getting on the waitlist, we decided to go to a nearby spot for food--but not even 5 minutes later, we got called back saying our table was ready. When we returned, we were seated along the wall in a very tight space--so tight that if I stretched my arm out, I would've hit the person next to me. We noticed a large table nearby had been sitting for a while without food. When their food finally came out, it made us realize our wait would probably be even longer. After another 20 minutes passed and we still hadn't been able to order, we decided to leave. I'm not sure the space is fully ready for the rush right now--it feels overcrowded and service is slow. I'll give it another try once the hype dies down. I'm happy for their success, though--just be prepared to be patient when you go.
