This spot has good drinks and food but man they suck at bussing like empty glasses and plates are on the table it’s annoying you order another drink but have no where else to put it
August 2025
Antigua used to be my go-to for Mexican in Crystal Lake. The first few times I went, the food was fantastic and the drinks were on point. But my last visit was a real letdown. The food was terrible and my drink tasted off. I'm hoping it was just an off night, but I'm definitely hesitant to go back.
June 2025
This place honestly used to be good… not sure if it’s me but the food is not that great. There’s no homemade salsa and the guacamole I can make SOOOO much better myself. Maybe the guac is a day old? It just doesn’t hit the spot for me.

So many better places out there, but still better than Taco Bell. I honestly hope they can change up the menu because their margs, customer service and atmosphere is top notch!
