We like that it's a more casual/relaxed vibe, they have sidewalk seating which is convenient for nice weather and if you have dogs, and the food is always good & well priced comparatively.

We went for a weekend lunch and it was pretty empty, which we didn't mind because we dragged our 3 month old along haha.

I also ordered the pollo tamales, which weren't my favorite. There was hardly any meat in them but if there had been I bet I would've really enjoyed them. Hopefully next time!

Service is attentive and consistent, and they even have a private event space with its own bar, which is a great bonus. Definitely a go-to local favorite!

First time visiting, found this restaurant from reviews and because it was in close proximity to a…read moreplanned activity after dinner. Margaritas were great, they make them using fresh syrup instead of bottled and you can tell the difference. Our server was super nice she made some great recommendations. I had the ceviche which was made with white fish shrimp and chopped veggies - it was really good and tasted freshly made. My friend had the camarones à la diabla (deviled shrimp in sauce) she got the sauce on the side just in case but said it was just the right amount of spice. It's nice and cozy inside not overly loud so you can hear yourself talk lol. Will definitely plan on retuning.

It's like the equivalent of a scrambled taco salad. It's also huge. I've never been able to finish it on my own. Will definitely order it again when I go back. Only reason no 5 stars is because a Modelo would have been nice to have with the meal, but beer is not available.

Highly Recommended!…read more It's rare to find a restaurant like this -- it's not just about food, it's about flavor! The staff are incredibly friendly, welcoming! Even the flavored water is to die for. The salsas are unforgettable -- spicy, addictive, and full of character, making you feel right at home while enjoying every bite. There's no comparison between this place and any regular spot -- just come here! I ordered a veggie burrito expecting something small, but I was proven completely wrong (and so glad I was). Every bite was delicious and satisfying. -- A must-try gem! Animo, no la piensen.

Maybe one line to order and one line just for pick up only. No structure! I waited in line to realize I can order at the table but by the time she came to me I should have just ordered and took it home! 0/1The complimentary chips and salsa were cold. The salsa was not good- tasted like tomato juice or something no additional flavor. I ordered the following: 1/5 stars for the steak taco - cilantro and onion 0/5 stars for the chicken taco- chicken- cilantro and onion Not enough servers, very slow service and the food is not flavorful and not good! Don't bother coming here on taco Tuesday! They have an extensive menu but the first time was not great enough to come back!

It's almost the identical venue and similar decorative vibe inside . Fact is it's 40 minutes closer to us. As we live in Edison park. Delicious food getting the combo fajita meal was the best deal for us .. ask for a half small order of guacamole to make it a complete meal and get the Cadillac margarita. And definitely get some salsa to go. It's affordable and fresh and you're supporting a small business.
