If there was a way to leave ZERO stars, I would in a heartbeat. First of all, GOD AWFUL service. Some of the worst I have EVER experienced. The four of us went there for lunch. It took over 45 minutes for the food to come out. 45 minutes for 8 tacos, 1 burrito, and a skillet they call "la Bamba," which was a JOKE. It was supposed to have bell peppers, onions, al pastor, bacon, steak, sausage and melted cheese. Holy crap where do I start?! Well go in order; there were NO onions. Bacon and steak? I have no idea... Whatever it was, it was SO burnt to a crisp, I still cant figure out what it was. Sausage? Nope. It was a HOT DOG. Last time I checked, there ARE NO HOT DOGS IN MEXICAN CUISINE! Seriously, I cant stress this enough; they used A HOTDOG in place of sausage. And finally, cheese. Entirely too much of it. It was mostly cheese. I think they decided to substitute everything they left out, WITH cheese. Then, after all that (and this is the thing that pushed me over the edge to leave this review) the bill had the TIP ALREADY INCLUDED. They included tip for 4 people. Not a party of 8, or even 6.... FOUR! It goes without saying, Ill never go back there. But additionally, Ill do everything in my power to prevent anyone whos willing to listen from going there. As we were leaving, I couldnt help but feel sorry for the people still there. They had no idea what they were in for...

Visiting IL for a conference from out of town and was in the mood for mexican. This is a small place but but the food was very tasty. Ordered queso with chorizo for an appetizer, and it had a very unique flavor - nutmeg? Very good and the fajitas and burrito were delicious too. Only complaint is the lack of a margarita menu. They had a house margarita which was ok, but when we each went to order a 2nd, she only came back with one margarita and said they were out of their lime juice, which was disappointing.

I feel the pricing was a joke. Attached is their traditional burrito which was $10 and very small. It was light on meet and too much lettuce. I also had chips and salsa. The chips were ok but seemed not to be so fresh and the salsa was very watered down. Very thin and no texture or real flavor. I would not go here again.

We were visiting relatives, were very hungry and stopped by on a whim. The food was fantastic (we ordered the guacamole and ceviche) and the waitress was friendly and very helpful (I cant eat wheat). We loved it! When were back in the area, well come back!

Over half an hour wait for tacos to go! Place was not busy and still took forever. However, the tacos were awesome! Full of flavor, great cuts of meat and stuffed. If they speed up the service, could be 4.5 stars.

This is one of those restaurants that you never know about until someone brings you to eat! Everytime we go, we eat way too much because everything is so good! The staff are extremely helpful and friendly.

The food sucked. I order their arachera it was tasteless. Their guac is so bad i wanted to go into their kitchen and see where they had it. The only good thing was the tamarindo agua fresca.

This one time I ordered tacos, and Im guessing the cook that flipped the tortillas had just put on some hand lotion and well the tacos had that extra ingredient!
