I was moving from an establishment and was waiting for a ride.. simple question asked if I'd ok to wait for my ride. Whomever the name .....she gave a few tacos while I waited. She dint have to do anything for me but, her kindness should not be taken advantage of. I recommend this place.

Simple setting. Has mostly booths, some tables. Order at front, then pick up your food when your name is called. Food was good, not greasy.

I ordered two tacos today. 1. Al Pastor 2. Chicharron. My name was never called when ready they were just sitting on the counter. I received two Chicharron Tacos. The tacos had no meat. Only the skin. The fat. Not the the meal I was expecting to receive after being recommended by two people nor the first experience.

Not impressed had order two meals tacos el pastor which was not on spit and meat was dried and burnt. Second was steak Burritos even worse. Order at counter with young girl at register watching videos on phone seemed to careless. Table where dirty food is just placed on counter when ready zero service. Two many other good choices in Crystal Lake

Use to be a very clean and family oriented restaurant. Been there few times recently and service is very bad compared to before, quality of the food went down drastically. Their price is skyrocketed. For example they’re charging $2.59 for a bottle of Sam’s club water actual cost of the water is 0.07 cents. A profit margin of 3137% markup. So you could imagine what they’re charging for other items.

The food was tasty, but just a heads-up—it’s self-service. You order at the counter, which is fine, but it took FOREVER to get our food and FOREVER to pay. There were only three other tables with patrons, yet the service was painfully slow.
Legit! Pastor is amazing! Son had Carne Asada which was great as well.

They make actual Mexican food, and it is very good. We did have to park in the back, and it is very small and seems unsafe, but we were fine. The food was great!
The food was excellent full of flavor, and everything tasted fresh, nothing tasted dry or hard to chew. It reminded me of some of the hidden gems in Little Village.
The tostadas and burritos are the best I've ever had.
Delicious 🤤
Best food. Take all my money.
