El famous has gone down hill over the years. It used to be much better 20 years ago. Low quality meats. Pricing is average though. It hard to find good mexican food in this area but there are better options

Just wanted to share kudos about the great customer service at the Downers Grove location. They rarely make mistakes on orders but it happens - we are all human. The important point is that in the off chance there are errors, they make them right. Thank you to Alyssa and the Downers Grove team for the excellent customer service today!

This place has been great for a few months I been going on Monday and enjoying the steak burrito. I would give it a 5 but the last few times I have gone they are not as full with meat. So I hope it was just a bad week or so. I really do like the place but refuse to pay for a steak burrito when there is barely any steak in it.
