The food was amazing and so hot which is key for me because it was fresh. They offer a little store side with some Guatemala favorite treats. They are happy and upbeat. Place was well organized and clean.

The food was fantastic and delicious! My food tasted so good that it felt so fresh like it was made to order. I recommend the desayuno Chapin (Guatemalan Breakfast) and Chuchito (like a tamale with chicken inside), which is what I ordered. The one thing I would have liked was a Pepsi because when I think of Guatemalan food, I think of Pepsi for the beverage to drink.

I’m a truck driver and found this guys on TikTok! So I looked them up and find out they are only 15 minutes from the yard where my company parks their truck so I park on the yard and got on my personal vehicle to go check them out and yes the TikTokrs it’s the first one I saw when I walked in and welcoming. Order two pupusas and a pollo con papas. Yes it might take them a while to bring your food out but it’ll come out fresh cooked and hot… I wish I took picture of the pupusa before it was gone…

🌟 **A Little Slice of Guatemala in Elgin !** 🌟

If you're craving authentic Guatemalan flavors, *La Tacita de Plata* is an absolute gem! Nestled in Elgin, this cozy restaurant serves up some of the most delicious and comforting dishes I’ve ever tried. As a huge fan of tamales, I can confidently say their *Chuchito tamale* is my all-time favorite! The perfect blend of masa, savory fillings, and that signature Guatemalan touch—it’s pure comfort in every bite.

But don’t stop there! Their *Pipian plate* is another must-try. Rich, flavorful, and beautifully spiced, it’s a dish that truly celebrates the heart of Guatemalan cuisine. Every bite feels like a warm hug from Central America.

And let’s not forget the amazing service! A big shoutout to Zavala for making our dining experience so welcoming and memorable. Their kindness and attention to detail truly added to the joy of the meal.

If you’re a fan of ethnic food or just looking to try something new, *La Tacita de Plata* is the place to be. Trust me, your taste buds will thank you! 💛

Was craving pupusas and decided to try this place based on the reviews, so I went 20 minutes out of my way. I waited in line for a long time while they cashed out one customer and took several phone calls. By that time my lunch hour was almost over. Went across the street and got tacos instead.
