There's a lot of Mexicans restaurants but some of hit or miss. As far as taste goes, El Authentico Burrito has always been a good spot for me in the Cresthill, Joliet, Plainfield area. On the plus side, they have a drive-thru so if you're looking to bring some home, it makes it quick and easy

If you enjoy it through attempting Mexican food, this is the place to visit. They even have tongue on the manu, which is absolutely wonderful. If you never tried it , go ahead give it a try , you won’t be disappointed, and the prices are great as well.
