There are so many great Mexican restaurants to choose from in Chicago, but don’t snooze on Estrella Negra. I’m vegetarian and they have my fave veggie taco - sooo flavorful. Plus their beans AND rice are veg. My husband swears by their steak tacos. But we’ve tried nearly half the menu and everything is so. damn. good. Margaritas are also fresh and well balanced.

I went here for Cinco de Mayo and unfortunately did not make a reservation but they still sat me at a table! I’m appreciative of their long list of Mocktails and tried the Nojito (Mojito without alcohol) and it was great! The burrito meal with chicken was good and the side salad had a good vinaigrette dressing. They were so busy though and I accidentally got charged for alcoholic drinks I did not order, but we took some time and figured it out and I will be reimbursed. It’s...

Everything here is BOMB. Food is fantastic, the restaurant is has a great vibe to it, and the staff always greets us with a smile and makes us feel very welcome. I'm from Saint Charles and make any excuse to come to Estrella Negra. This is a must try!
