Very good Mexican food for being in Illinois. If you can't stand tough onions, make sure to tell them to leave the onions off. That's completely not a knock on them, I didn't put my dentures in before I went in and the onions were a little tough. That's absolutely my fault.

I am an avid lover of mexican cuisine. This was the very worst of all my experiences. From Pennsylvania to Colorado. I have eaten at mexican in every state in between. This was far and away the worst experience. My food was severely undercooked and the restaurant was severely understaffed. My family ended up throwing it all out and going to a place in Vandalia. I would recommend taco bell over this.

Ordered on phone to pickup at restaurant, had to search for a menu because you have to look at 3 different websites for it. To only get there not knowing the cost and it is no way near what the website, or to go menu says. Fajita and taco salad 28.75. WOW. Not anywhere near what I thought.

Waiter was polite. No complaints with waiter. Food however was not. Chips were stale. Requested new chip, received more stale chips. Salsa and Guacamole taste & looked like pour out of a jar. The meals were honestly just disappointing, flavorless. Husband said only good thing was the hot salsa he requested.

Price is too high for what you get , They try to charge kids drink at an adult price of $3.25 The food taste like generic food ,and they charge you 4% on your credit card, and food so spicy it is hard to eat it.

Best shrimp quesadilla I’ve ever had. Seasoned perfectly, flavorful, and juicy. They also have the best queso blanco! My boyfriend ordered a steak quesadilla and loved it as well. Not the biggest portion but the flavors won’t let you down. I would recommend this place!

Stopped here on a whim while driving home to Ohio and had super delicious chilaquiles with chicken. The sauce was amazing and it was almost like getting fajitas but with awesome sauce and cheese on top. We also had tacos and chicken fajitas at our table, also very good, but everyone liked mine best. Fabio was our server and was super attentive, and explained the heating was out, but it was worth it to bundle up and stay cuz the food was great. He let us practice our Spanish with him too, era muy amable! Super cute, clean little place with lovely unique booths and chairs all done in artesania style. Un aplauso, ¡comida muy rica!

12 of us came in on Friday night.The place was COLD...57°F with no heat! We asked to get the heat up...no one acted like they understood English. One person spoke some Spanish to the waiters. They were surprised and still acted like they didn't know what we were saying. WE ALL WALKED OUT and went to JOE'S PIZZA.Can't eat in the cold!

Absolutely worst experience ive had at a restaurant! We had a pretty large group for a birthday party but they only had 4 other people in the whole place. The waiter was so incredibly rude. He kept tapping his pen, rolling his eyes, and actually refused to take 2 of our orders.

This had to be the best Mexican restaurant we have ever been to. Our waiter was funny and accommodating. The decor was beautiful and the food was outstanding. I'll give them 10 stars and we will definitely be back next time we're in the area.
