I listen to great music have a beer or two and play the slot machines. At times win big!!! Victoria's has all types of music, in- expensive drinks, ales and spirits. Fabulous owners and friendly regulars. Private Parties in doors and out doors. You will be glad you stopped by.”

“Went to see Luis Ojeda it was a good night, they have free mandatory valet parking which i dont mind. The food is not expensive nor cheap. The atmosphere & live banda makes every penny worth it”

“I heard a lot about this place through out the years! I have tried to stop in but for 1 reason or another it was closed so let’s dive into this review. Incredible Fantastic Phenomenal Amazing Spectacular Food! Freddy’s is the Famiglia on Holidays and your Nona’s and Zia’s all cooking pumping out hot fresh delicious food from all the Kitchens
(typically 2 in most Italian households 1 upstairs and 1 in bashement) lol 😂
Freddy’s is like I went back to 1990’s St.Calistus St.Joseph’s table. Stop in the Food Service and Establishment all live up to its promises. You can not have a bad meal here.

“After a long morning of shopping we decided to try Quericozon on South Cicero and cermak.The food and service from Paula Mendoza was INCREDIBLE. The empanadas of ham and cheese were soo good I never had empanadas like that and just so your aware the portion sizes here and GREAT!
Thank you for great food and great service”

“This morning was our 1st time there for our Family’s Annual Christmas Morning breakfast/lunch. Everyone enjoyed their meal and the service was fantastic.”

“Mejor birria que yo comido”

“Great food nice waiters n pretty place n clean 😊”

“We stopped in for delicious tacos, chips, Dos Exius, Corona on our way to a concert at the United Center. Talk about amazing! The food was so, so good: authentic, simple, delightful. Mercedes greeted us and checked in before, during & after our meal - so wonderful! Diana was our waitstaff and treated us very well. A FANTASTIC experience.”

“I ordered a half-diablo, half-green chilaquiles, while my husband opted for the morita ones. Both dishes were absolutely delicious. The diablo chilaquiles were definitely made in hell, hahaha! Our favorite part was the side potatoes. The food tasted like breakfast made by grandma! The portions were huge; we only managed to finish half of it. And the coffee had that homemade taste. We’d go back for sure!”

“I go to this location quiet often, but I was extremely disappointed as well as angry with what I saw today at this location. (3/9/25 at 5:35pm) The 3 customers that were ahead of me placed their orders were first timers I found out. The young lady that was fixing their smoothies dropped a cup on the floor, picked the cup up from the floor then sat the cup to the side. As she finished one smoothie she pulled a fresh cup, then the 2nd smoothie she proceeded to pour it in the cup that she picked up off the floor. I told the young lady that took my order, so she then pulled the young to the side to tell her that I saw what she did then she looks at me and says "I'm Sorry" (I said to her): What do mean you are sorry, why would you do that, and why are you giving that to her, you need to remake that smoothie ...and guess what she did not. I'm just want to make people aware: Watch the people that prepare your sandwiches/smoothies or anything of that sort. It's not their stuff, they're not paying for it so they don't care. That was just the epitome of nasty and extremely unsanitary. She didn't have on a Tropical Cafe shirt, she had on a gray shirt, she may have been new, I'm not sure but we need to learn to do better when working with the public. Don't do things to people that you don't want done to you!!!!! FYI...the name on the ticket was: Shelia G”

“Everything very delicious try the quesabirrias!”

“Been a loyal customer for many years, food is always delicious and orders are ready within the time promised. Never had any issue both with take out or dinning in. Highly recommend!”

“The place was nice and clean. I was greeted immediately. The young lady was knowledgeable about the menu and polite. She informed me and asked me if I would like certain things on my funnel cake before putting anything else outside what it's served with. The Funnel Cake was fresh along with the fruit. I will be back. I recommend this place.”

“there make great refreshers”

“My Favorite neighborhood bar ❤️”

“Always friendly and customer service is top notch. Never had a bad experience and I get custom crepes all the time and they are PERFECT! I suggest the crepe with lechera, caramel, strawberries and granola! So good! I will continue to go every time I could. Thank staff at Rico”

“best coffee and awesome food”

“I used to deliver to the railyard right across the street loved having breakfast there. Best I’ve ever had I live in Canada. I’m actually thinking of driving to Chicago just for the steak and Egger.”

“This spot is a must try. I use to live across the street from this restaurant and would go often. Food was always consistent. I live 40 minutes away now and currently pregnant. All I’m craving is the Mexican burger from Las Brazas. Do yourself a favor and just go!”

“Yesterday morning was my first time visiting and trying this bakery. It was a small storefront but this place was definitely quality over quantity ?? Berta behind the counter was such a sweetheart. All the pan dulce I got was delicious, but the conchas were my favorite. They were super soft, and the topping was not overly sweet. They have great prices compared to other places.$CASH ONLY$Yesterday morning was the first time I visited and tried this bakery. It was a small store, but this place is definitely quality over quantity ??. Many thanks to Berta, she was very kind! All the sweet bread I bought was delicious, but the conchas were my favorite. Very soft and the topping was not too sweet. They have great prices compared to other places.$ CASH ONLY $”

“Food was really good, fresh, hot, and quick. The staff is very friendly, it's a nice cozy spot to get a bite to eat of some delicious Mexican food I personally had some pastor tacos and carne asada and I deff recommend😋 nice size tacos too was well worth the stop.”

“it's a good place I recommend you guys come on Fridays”

“We were able able to make a reservation via Google, and when we arrived they were expecting us. The staff is really nice, took our drink order right away (coffee and waters) and then our food order soon after. I loved my endless cup of coffee and banana crepes. One person ordered chiquillas, which looked great. We added meat sides later, which came right away. The bill was totally reasonable (no separate checks tho, FYI), and everyone left full and happy.”

“Ive been to almost alll Submmarines but this one takes it for the win! They were so welcoming and friendly and super clean for a small sandwich shop. Not only do they have a wide variety for subs and add ons but they also sell hot dogs , italian beefs , burgers and pizza puffs as well as so many side options from fries to mac n cheese bites! Give it a try and you wont regret it! Super clean , very nice family people 10/10And at the end the nice gentleman gave my daughter a free lollipop! Such a great experience and place full offf flavor and some crispyyyy golden fries”

“Staff were friendly, the store was quiet and clean, and there is a lot of variety! I got some galletas and conchas and they were good. I definitely will be returning!”

“It’s a nice place to play slots. Staff is friendly.”

“I haven't had their hot dogs for about 25 years. Used to live in the area and moved to the burbs. Have to say it's the same good Vienna Hot dog and good fries. Not too much mustard. ”

“Great fresh food, amazing customer service
Catfish is fresh and amazing, my kids love the burgers and cheesesteaks
It’s a shame they were prohibited from selling wings by the wingstop next door.
They were the best wings in town, no wonder Wingstop tried to stop them, can’t wait for them to start selling wings again”

“Love this hidden gem in Cicero. Typical sports bar with great drink specials, live music on Friday nights, and DJ on Saturday nights. Great for watching all sporting events! Also has a gaming room with all of the best machines. As the sign on the building says its “the best kept secret in Cicero”!!”

“I visit twice in 2 weeks. I have been coming here for many years. Scatchell's your beef sandwich never disappoint me. What really puts them over the top is your homemade hot peppers. But I would like to suggest that your food handlers use plastic gloves. I observed one of your workers rub his nose and then made a sandwich (it wasn't mine) 😓”

“excelente servicio y muy amables”

“Best bakery in Cicero! Love the Family the son Alex is extremely nice and helpful!! They have the freshest baked goods around hands down!!! It was by far the best danish I’ve ever had. My wife got a chocolate cupcake because it was our anniversary and she loved it! Our baby Benny got a m&m cookie and ate every last crumb. We also had shares donut and it was beyond fresh. We have family in the area so we’ll definitely be coming back soon. We even told our family about the bakery it was so goooood!!!! You have customers for life with us! Thanks again for great food and even greater service!!”

“I have been a patron here since the day the opened. It's always had great service and great foods. Prices are very reasonable. The choice of cooking style here is very delicious to me. Portions are just enough. All these years and still the same great place its been.”

“Great old neighborhood restaurant. Been here for years. Good food.”

“Stopped by today to check out for the first time and they did not disappoint! I had the mazapan concha, delicious and fresh. Coffee was good too. Can't wait to try the rest of the menu as reviews have been good on everything!”

“Todo está delicioso especialmente los elotes 👍🏼 Definitivamente los recomiendo”

“I always enjoy coming for a special treat here and their aguas frescas are delicious!!! You can even have them enchilada (chamoy rim sprinkled with Tajín).”

“Great food! Open late! Friendly service!”

“Definitely recommend! The food is made fresh. Their burgers & fries are really good and we can’t wait to try the pizza soon! You can’t beat those prices either. Great food, great service.”

“ordered a hot dog with everything thinking they would give me a Chicago dog instead I got relish onion pickle and mustard. needless to say it was awful. the beef was a little better but the bread stale.”

“Been coming here for over 20 yrs love everything best Chinese Food ever totally recommend”

“My friend and I went to this resturant for Lunch. We had a great time. To enjoy my food I was careful to take teaspoon full of whatever I wanted. Then I could have one of their great deserts, fruit and salad! We had a great time. It was a tuesday morning. We got our senior discount. We had fun! Service was very good as well! Food was replenished quickly!”

“The Ontario Ave in Chicago was fabulous. My husband and I both enjoyed our Chicago dogs”

“Pizza was excellent. The XL I bought was too big for me to finish. The support was excellent. I believe the owner is the man, and he was really kind and attentive to us. However, the handmade cheesecake was my favorite component. I really enjoyed it! They handed us a portion that wasn't at all thin. The food was delicious. There was nothing to match what you can buy at Walmart. I'll most certainly return for more of that cheesecake and rave about how good it was to all of my loved ones.”

“my scramble eggs bacon and potatoes where delicious I would come here again.”

“Very clean bakery with soft delicious bread. My only reason for giving it 4 stars is they Do Not accept debit! Credit either, however that's understandable. Only Cash. I walked to an ATM that wasn't my bank and got charged to take out money, all because I wanted bread and I didn't have cash.😞”

“quesadillas de camaron muy sabrosas”

“It was my first time going and I was fairly soprised it's pretty good pizza 🍕😋 and the prices aren't bad neither I myself got their large pizza got it within 15 minutes fresh out the oven as part of their special for $9.99 I wished there was a few more Pepperoni slices in it but for the price and quickness and taste it was well worth it, my only regret is I didn't ask for it to be well done but that's totally on me I prefer my pizza a little crispier to the bite, it's worth a stop if your in the area 👍🏼”

“We love the ice cream ? and the atesanal yogurt with frut there. They have tasty fresh seasonal fruit.

Vegetarian options: They have tasty fresh seasonal fruit.

Dietary restrictions: The food in all are made in the same moment. They have fresh seasonal fruit always.”

“It was great my coworkers wanted carnitas for a party at work and let me tell you nobody was disappointed!!!!! And the employees very friendly I give it the max stars ⭐️ will be returning”

“I went for some tamales, they were really good, I also had some sopes, I was really pleased with the flavor of my sopes, they were delicious. I had take out, and the wait for my food was not long it all. The cashier was very nice, she even let me had a taste of their champurrado. I will be back. I recommend this place.”

“The best taco place I've been to. I moved out of the area and have not found anywhere better! It's always good whether you eat in or do take out! The pork tacos and horchata were my favorite! So much flavor and fulfilling.”

“THe 6.99 on the window is a little misleading, expect to spend 15-25 per person. Great service, very authentic, great place to practice spanish or not have to worry about knowing english. Amazing food and if your lucky Mariachis sometimes come by. Plenty of parking available and despite it being a very nice neighborhood parking lot is protected by surveillance cameras visible from your seat in the resteratant . Fun, delicious, and high security protection... Amazing ;)”

“Stopped in on my delivery rt. this a.m. very fresh n yummy!”

“Love them best tacos in town and pizza! Huge pizza slices for cheap , and they are QUICK.”

“I love that they have conchas both with or without canela in the bread. With canela are my favorite! The tamales (red pork) used to be my favorite in town but not sure if something subtle changed or I ate them so much that I think that they went to great to good now. Either way, they are still worth a try, if you haven't yet.”

“Definitely recommend this place. Great people, great establishment and great food!!”

“The food was good and delivered in a timely manner even though I live a bit far from this particular location. Also, there was a gentleman named Brian that gave me the best possible customer service. I know it must be tough for workers to keep a positive attitude during this pandemic, but you have no idea how far being nice and respectful goes! Thanks Brian!”

“Excelente servició, muy amigables. Justo a un lado de mi casa.. asi que, si antes no cocinaba ahora menos 🌮🌮🌮 🥗 🍔🌯🧆🥩🥚🍳🥑🍤🍝🍲🍜☕️🍶🧂🍽 De todo 🥰 cierran asta las 11:59 pm”

“Great tropical drink! Taste like a vacation in a high end resort! Cool place to chill and do some work, Wifi, Clean, A/C. Eddie was very accommodating, friendly and professional. Highly recommend this hidden gem!”

“At Taste of Chicago, I had my first Mangonado, which I adored. I then came across Los Mangos and their sign for Mangonado. I went there with my accomplice, my uncle, and their mangonado was wonderful. It was quite gratifying to combine fresh mango, frozen mango, and the chile flavorings that they add. Their creations are all entirely natural. Our new stop for sweet goodies is here.”

“If you like sweet sauce, traditional Chicago style with a lot of toppings then this spot is treat. The soft crust, hot pie and warm smiles will have you coming back for more”

“It was delicious 😋 the food I recommend it”

Why I Love It:

Parking & Convenience:
• Free parking.
• Drive-thru makes life easier.

Final Verdict:

Whether you’re Mexican, Hispanic, or just looking to try something new, this is THE spot. If you’re craving elote, ice cream, or spicy snacks, La Michoacana will not disappoint.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly recommend!”

“I order lunch from here often and I just wanted to take the time to say I appreciate how hard they make sure to get me my order in a timely manner each and every time. Even when they're short on delivery drivers and Uber cancels. Thank you!”

“Gorditas de Nata are so delicious! Wish they were nearer to me.”

“This is my second time here, and once again, the service and quality of the pastries are top-notch. I highly recommend trying the conchas, elote, and orejas—each one is fresh, flavorful, and made with care. The bakery has a warm, family-loving atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. There’s truly something for everyone. My brother is obsessed with their chocolate donut (aka the “Big Mac”)—it’s a must-try if you’re into rich, indulgent treats. If you’re ever in the area, this place is absolutely worth a visit!”

“Deliciosa la comida recomendada al 💯 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰”

“#icedcoffeesnob Ice 🧊 coffee ☕️”

“My family and have purchased from bombon for years and for the past two years the cakes haven't been as flavorful. The cakes have been dry and not as good, and same goes for customer service. The guy who charged me had an attitude which didn't understand why, but regardless of the customer service this last time the cake was very delicious. I was genuinely surprised in a good way. The cake was moist and very delicious and hopefully they keep baking their cakes the same way because it was very good.”

“Always love a whopper every now and again to satisfy my craving for a flame 🔥 broil burger 🍔”

“Prices was a bit expensive. But I am the type of person that strongly believe in you get what you pay for. If you pay less you get less. And the food was excellent, fresh flavor was good. I ordered a Burrito and it looked small but it did fill me up. So it's a case of Quality over Quantity. I'll go with Quality people. 😉”

“Food was great. I visited Chicago for the first time a while back and had stopped by this restaurant while driving around. The Tacos were great and the staff was friendly. Next time I come back definitely checking this place out again.”

“exlente servicio el chanpurrado y los tamales”

“I recommend their delicious healthy yogurts with fruit!!”

“I ordered the fried chicken wings They were amazingly crunchy and delicious I truly enjoyed them I will definitely be back for more and I'm not sharing this time..”

“Tamales are better than in nearby places, a bit more of a home made feel to them!
Always keep it in mind when having the craving for tamales in between holidays!”

“Wooow las mejores gorditas qué e probado, no me cansaría de comer aquí todos los días, gracias por cocinar tan delicioso, Buena Suerte 😉”
