This place is always a favorite. The owner is so kind and welcoming, making sure you have a great experience. The food is excellent - authentic eats in the loop! Plus, the drinks are strong and tasty. I loved the fresh strawberry in the margarita, but all the options are great.

The food is great and it comes out very quick, the servers are friendly. However, there’s one server who screws up my order every time. This is like the third time I’ve been there and she messed it up. Today I asked for 3 beef enchiladas to go with a side of rice and beans, and a side of queso. Was disappointed when I got home to see three enchiladas with 0 SAUCE and only beef and queso??? And then I didn’t get a side of queso. Like cmon how hard is it
Charming place with nice staff, excellent service, and good food at reasonable prices!

MUST VISIT! Quite possibly the best enchiladas I have ever eaten! Our family was in Chicago last month on a break. Happened to find this place. Loved it the first time. Went back. Loved it even more. We are going to be talking about these two meals for a long time!

I was a little hesitant to dine at this Latin restaurant since I’m vegan, but Emily made the experience so easy and enjoyable. She recommended a delicious burrito dinner and a taco dinner, both topped with fresh veggies and made sure all my orders came without cheese.
When I mentioned that my phone was about to die, she kindly checked if I could charge it, and I was able to boost it from 30% to 60%, which saved me a lot of stress. She also helped me pay smoothly using Apple Pay, which I really appreciated.
Emily is incredibly friendly and accommodating. Her thoughtful service made a big difference in my dining experience, and she’s a true asset to any hospitality team.
Food was great - fresh and tasty. Cocktails were inventive and delicious. The staff was extraordinarily welcoming and kind. Would come back a million times.

Tony and team are excellent at what they do. Damn good food. It’s a simple yet hard concept many restaurants in the loop struggle to grasp. The food is affordable , the vibes immaculate and the service top tier. Highly recommend for lunch , dinner or just a post work happy hour!
Best tacos in the loop. Salsa is great. Owner is awesome.
I ordered the combination chicken and steak fajitas for pickup and it is one of the most flavorful things I’ve tried in a while. It comes with beans, rice, a side salad (with a scoop of guac!!), multiple tortillas and salads. So good. Will be ordering again.
Amazing food! Fast service! For a great price!
Antonio is the absolute best! The food is amazing, drinks are amazing and keep flowing. Perfect spot to pop into any day of the week!
