Nice and comfy little spot to grab tacos. The carne asada tacos were seasoned perfectly, not too salty or bland which is a rarity these days. The steak was cooked nice and crispy while still juicy! And the homemade tortillas? Nothing less than amazing!
Food was so good I went back and got two quesabirria tacos which were also very delicious.
Will be returning for sure!

Kinda of a seafood vibe. Beef enchiladas had a bite (spice).
Beans were a bit watery but good flavor. Wife like the Mexican street corn but I could pass

I used to love this place. I would always get a steak quesadilla. Filled the whole plate. They were huge. It’s been a couple months since I had the chance to order from them. I actually thought the moved to the old ihop space that is where I went for my pick up. Oops. Anyway went to the old spot picked up my order and my quesadilla shrunk in half. It was like a taco. Price was the same. Did they need to chop the servings in half to pay for the second restaurant. Very disappointed will not be back.
Great food! We highly recommend this place

Just ordered some queso and chips from there and they serve it cold at least that’s what they told me when I called and complained about it. They told me they opened up a bag of queso and serve it cold. They only heat it up if you asked for it to be heated upso let alone getting cold queso they don’t even make it homemade it’s literally served out of a bag cold very disappointing won’t be back.

Was a bit confused by the burrito I had. So I got an al pastor burrito and it was alright but like one half had a ton of rice and the other half had a ton of beans and neither side had both. It wasn't really bad it was just kinda weird. The consume on the birria I felt needed a bit more salt but yea overall my experience was just ok. Not amazing, not terrible, just okay. Although I will add that charging for sauce is a bit sacrilegious seeing as most places just give you that complimentary.

The burrito i had was a little dry ,did not get the sour cream or tomatoes that was supposed to be on it! I think that would of made a difference in the dryness

As always I’ll give my honest review. I stopped in ordered 6 steak tacos and a steak torta. Everything was made fresh however this has to be the most tasteless Mexican food I’ve ever had. First off the steak was severely over cooked burned steak throughout all 6 tacos and the torta and i mean burned to the point where it was crunchy. Steak was under seasoned and bland definitely not the experience i was expecting after reading the reviews.
Wow this place is good. I moved to Illinois from Arizona. I’m always on the hunt for some decent Mexican food. Came to town for costo and found this close by. The asada burrito was fantastic. Every tasted truly homemade. We were stuffed walking out but my boyfriend wishes he got two more tacos simply because they just tasted THAT good. He got asada and chorizo tacos. Food was out fast. Bring cash to leave a more impactful tip! Will be coming back here.

Some of the best authentic tacos in the Peoria area and their tortas are just as good. Service was friendly and fast, we ate inside where there is limited seating. Highly recommend.
