Hello, Dom here your local Chicago guide, just Walked into el G for for the first time, food was great, pricing was a bit above the usual for most places that I have tried carne asada in but quality was good, as well as the portion, I wanted to try the pastas they looked delicious but ended up trying something a bit more authentic, service was good, a bit slow for a slow day, longer than usual taking the order and also bringing the check, I had to deal with 3 different people, bathrooms were clean, the ambiance and the decor of the restaurant was nice, would be even great to making a side of the parking lot a nice outdoor area, the music was way too loud for a Monday afternoon.
Recommendations, Overall great job on the carne asada itself however it was still missing some seasonings, was a bit too plain, the portion was good however the plate was small the food was crowded, too much lettuce, the salad was really good that came with but since there is salad there’s no point of the lettuce, I would recommend replacing with either fried onions or cactus or jalapeño for those who like spicy or simply for nicer looking plate. For the sauces on the table I would replace them with a special home made sauce that can be called El G fe sauce this alone could potentially get customers hooked such as the green spicy sauce that is offered at the beginning. Will probably come back and try those pastas alongside the birria tacos

Our waiter was nice but the food was gross. Do not recommend camarones al ajo - the shrimp were tiny, and they had way too much butter.

Caldo siete mares was really flavorful, and even though the amount of seafood could have been more, I can live with the food taste. This place is BOYB.

Service was good. I thought the Birria was a little spicy for my liking but was cooked well. I will say I thought the prices were expensive for what you got. I would go back but only if it was someone else's choice. Mostly because of the price.

Great fried fish! It was very crispy and delicious. We were greated since we entered. They took our order quickly and the food was brought out to us in a decent time. They gave us ceviche with tostadas while we waited for our food.

It is a pleasure to dine at this establishment. The service is outstanding, and the food is exceptionally delicious. I highly recommend sitting outdoors to enjoy the gentle breeze.

Food was amazing, definitely worth the price. Service was quick and friendly. Our server gave me extra time as I was a little overwhelmed. Portion sizes were more than enough. Homemade sides too. I loved how crab salad was a staple side for most meal options. They don't sell alcohol but you can BYOB. I have a virgin margarita which was a fair size and delicious. My partner had Carne Asada and I had Camarones Hawaianos. Overall, we'll definitely be looking to return to try more dishes when we're back in town.

Fast and friendly service. Food is delicious and reasonably priced. Always get the tostada de Camaron y pulpo a la plancha. That octopus is prepared perfectly.
