I very rarely write reviews and hate to do this to a seemingly small businesses but I feel compelled to write this one as I believe I just had a racist encounter. On my way to another restaurant, I passed this one. I immediately looked them up to see the ratings (something I do, especially in a new area) as I’m very particular on where I eat. I call them to see what time they close (I say this in Spanish) and the lady on the phone responds fifteen minutes in Spanish and in English says 20 minutes. When I get to my original destination it was closed so I decide to go back (no more than maybe 5 minutes have passed since I call). I walk in, door is unlocked. Lady at the countering is signaling closed and says it out loud. I’m like how because I just called. The “waiter” who was sitting down says maybe I called the restaurant across the street. He then gets up and I show him my phone and he says “oh” and asks what do I want. I ask him for the options at the moment and tells me and he proceeds to the counter, where the lady denies this request and says the chef already cleaned or started cleaning. The “waiter” then says verbatim: “I’m just the waiter” lol I do applaud him for trying, seemed like a decent guy. This whole encounter would have been fine though if I hadn’t JUST call 5 minutes prior to ask what time they closed. There were also two ladies eating in the restaurant at the time. This def left a spur taste in my mouth and it is my first night in Chicago and I was truly hungry. Sucks I didn’t get to try the food but def won’t be back. I don’t know if it was my ski mask or what (for the “Windy” City ofc) which I had below my mouth but still prejudice nonetheless. Do better.

I’ve eaten at just about every place on 26th Street, and I think I just found my new favorite. Best green salsa ever.
