“These guys have nailed it! Coming from the Chicago area, its been real difficult to find food that reminds me of home. These guys however, they are Cicero inspired. They taste exactly how the food in Cicero/Chicago taste. every time I eat there I get little hints of being home again. My family and I are regulars at this restaurant for this EXACT reason. Apparently most of the US agrees aswell! Keep up the good work and great food!“

“We love their food, but I don’t know why it says they offer takeout/curbside. For months I’ve tried to order by phone for takeout, but they don’t answer their phone! I’ve been told it’s because they would rather you came in to dine so that they can serve drinks and get tips. They forget that during Covid when you couldn’t dine in, it was the loyal customers that continued to order by phone for takeout that helped keep them in business. Too bad they don’t remember that.“

“I cannot speak for anything else on the menu, but the Huevos Rancheros were the best I’ve had (and this is my go to at every breakfast place)! Green chili is hot but super flavorful. I requested a side of chorizo (also delish) which wasn’t necessary in the end with plenty of pork IN the green chili. Also, our 7:30 AM server on Sunday was cheerful, helpful and quick! Will be frequenting this establishment for sure!“

“Have loved the food for 20+ years. I've never been disappointed. Best green chile around, as hot or mild as you can handle. Carnitas burrito is phenomenal! But like I said, I've never had anything bad here. Love their hard tacos and stuffed soppapillas. Always have and as far as I'm concerned always will love this place. Spoiled rotten to have a couple of great Mexican food restaurants here in Lafayette.“

It was simple, soft, and fresh with a sprinkle of sugar. Perfectly paired with a cup of coffee. I'll take a dozen of those Any day.“
