I placed an order on grubhub and they messed up my order. I specifically asked for BEAN AND STEAK ONLY ON TORTA! They gave me double beans as my sides. When I called in the ladies were both rude and kept saying I placed my order wrong when I’ve ordered from them before and it was perfectly fine. One of the ladies put me on hold to get another lady and she was rude and didn’t seem like she wanted to help. Also the steak was very salty and not how steak should look or taste. I just moved to crest hill from Berwyn and this is such a bad representation to a new resident of the community. DO BETTER!

We tried this place on a Thursday, they had 1.50 tacos which I know now they have this every Tues and Thursday. The tacos are not regular size a little smaller but they were delicious. I've been back twice since my first visit

The place is nice and big, and there's food for all tastes. But my favorite was the tacos. However, I'm giving my five stars to the person who served me. They were very patient and kind to me, since it was my first time there.

Went here with my gf on 10/16 sat at the bar, every server walked past us for 10 minutes. They served every other person that came in after us at the bar lol. That should tell you enough, won’t be getting my money again and we always eat here. I’ll keep going to the other locations from now on. Childishness, do better

$1.50 tacos on Thursdays are nice but leave much to be desired flavor wise. The horchata is good

First time eating here but will not be the last. Loved the food, great service good vibe in the place. I had the tacos went with a steak, carnitas and el pastor. El pastor was not my favorite but loved the steak and carnitas. Loved the beans, guacamole and carrots and peppers they brought out with salsa. Wife had chicken taco and tostada and they were very tasty. Tacos are the authentic street taco kind , will be torn between the steak and carnitas next time.

Mr K.

Authentic Mexican restaurant. Waitresses English skills were lacking, but my sister speaks a bit of Spanish which helped. The food was mixed. Their home made salsa was amazing. Best Mexican carrots I've ever had too. Carrots were sour, spicy, but overpoweringly spicy. Ordered the primo dinner. (Steak, El Pastor, and a quesadilla). The Steak and the beans were really good. The quesadilla was authentic, corn tortillas and Mexican cheese. The rice had a good orange color but seemed under seasoned. The El Pastor was a dry rub seasoning. It was just ok. Too dry for my taste. They offer corn or flour tortillas. They have a bar which is a plus. My sister had sopas. It was 6 inches wide and flat. It looked yummy. Everything I ate needed extra salt, but I love salt. Would go again.

Food wasn't that great. When I was checking out I saw a roach on the floor. We won't be going there again.

Tried the carne asada Tacos and they were good flavor. However they had a lot of fat on the meat. I will give them another try and pick something different.
