The food is either hit or miss. The chicken special is what I usually get you get a grilled chicken with rice, beans, salsa, guacamole. Now they either make it fresh or they give you an old one. Not only that its either salty or doesn't have enough seasoning. It's either cooked well or over cooked and dry or sometimes a bit undercooked.

Now I've had their tacos too. It tastes like straight up grease. I usually get the Asad ones I recommend you don't ive had the chicken one. Now those where good idk what parts of the chicken it was but it was good. Now for the drinks I'd recommend either the horchata or the hibiscus one.

I wasn't going to lie I was about to throw up because of these weird funky smell.(usually there isnt but that day was just gnarly)

$30.20 for a lunch for one person - all I ordered was one Chilaquiles.
Plus, the gentleman who served my table did not speak any English.

The best in Elgin. Food is authentic & top grade. Always satisfying to my taste buds. Restaurant is really clean & customer service is excellent. You will never go wrong stopping by to eat in or pick up. 100% recommended.

This place is by far the biggest rip off!! I do not recommend anyone order from here unless you make 5 figures. 1 taco costs $9.50, basically $7 with tax. The food its self was awful and dry. Never EVER going to order from here again and highly suggest, if you like real quality food for the right price I wouldn't go here!!

I didn’t know roasted chicken could smell this good and be this dry. I don’t know what happened to this place but quality has definitely gone down. Ordered chicken and gordita. Gordita was bland but edible. Chicken was so dry and tasteless it was hard to get through one bite. There was some warm mushy onion and peppers on the side. Didn’t seem to help much.

Do not get the chilaquiles rojos they’re just chips and a little bit of salsa on top the worse chilaquiles I ever had and ended up paying 23 dls for that unbelievable
