Very small desserts, very simple and very expensive.

Today I went to eat at this place and the truth is I was very, very disappointed with the food. I was disgusting. I ordered enchiladas or Enmoladas and a coffee and the truth is everything was super bad, terrible. I didn't eat the food after the second bite. I left everything. The truth is, the Arros seemed I paste the super dry beans and the enmoladas you tasted ugly ugly the truth is I think they gave me the leftovers from the day before or I don't know but that was terrible I even felt disgusted and vomited in my house I'm just telling you When you see your food like this, take a video and expose it to the Aver restaurant if they apply themselves to giving a good debut and farewell meal, thank you

El Faro is a beloved local spot in Elgin known for its delicious Mexican food and friendly service. The menu features a variety of traditional dishes, all prepared with fresh ingredients and authentic flavors. The tacos and burritos are particularly popular, and the salsa bar offers a great selection of toppings to customize your meal. The casual, laid-back atmosphere makes it a great place to enjoy a meal with family or friends.

This was the worst customer service ever they served us old meat. It had a bad smell and they refused to do a refund after we threw it in the garbage. There was no way I was going to dig in the garbage again just to drive 30 minutes to do a refund poor customer service ever and then on top of that they even told us we can do a refund and bring the burrito back 3 to 4 days, who does that?
