“Wonderful food!!! I love it all!!! I especially like their tamales and flan!!! The owners are hands on, super guys ! They not only create amazing dishes but they give back to the community. Great food! Great hearts! Five stars! C”mon down and enjoy!“

“The concept for the menu is a unique trip along the Pan-American highway with stops at various Latin countries. Each dish and drink is thoughtful in its ingredients and presentation. The jicama salad was refreshing, but not at all plain. The pastel de choclo was a wonderful surprise of a warm dish. The frozen el arenal was seriously dangerous in how delicious it was, I can’t recommend it enough. The atmosphere was beautiful and the music was perfect. We are so thrilled to have this gem in the neighborhood and can’t wait to see what they do in the future!“

“Such a great surprise! We had heard about La Perla and live in the neighborhood but hadn't made it over to this gem. Such a lovely evening! Food was delicious and beautifully presented. They are working out a bar issue so no alcohol for now but just go for the food! Service was beyond expectations and super accommodating. Rh r chef even came out to see how we were enjoying our choices. Run for the rigatoni! The swordfish special was awesome, Caesar salad -yum. Its location is a little hidden on Clark south of Belmont but don't pass it by.“

“Everyone at lLibertad was wonderful from the moment we walked in the door. We were celebrating a family reunion with 2 other couples and we all enjoyed our mela. The dishes were very creative and delicious. The service was excitement. Jothe was so attentive and accommodating. He was also so friendly and kind. Jenny also stopped by the table and welcomed us as we have had her as our server many times before. It is one of our “go to” spots and we love taking out of town guests to Libertad We'll be back!“

Kid-friendliness: Kid menu was a hit! The kids enjoyed the music as well.“

“Coming from San Francisco, we were hesitant to try Latin food out here. We were glad we gave Cafe Con Leche a chance because it was better than most of the Mexican/Salvadorian food we have in the California. Nice server and very tasty tacos/burritos. Try it!!!!“

“The Venezuelan sampler was great, and it featured pulled pork and beef brisket. We also enjoyed the plantains. We will be back.“

“This is my favorite spot in the neighborhood. Tasty, friendly, chill. ❤️“

“Had an amazing meal here last night. There were four of us and we each ordered a different entree so we can have a taste of each entree. We started with ceviche and empanadas. So delicious! Then our meals came…. And OMG! Each entree was so different and amazing! Everything is made from scratch sauces dressings etc. We ended the meal with the dessert and all tried something different. Everything we eat was incredible! The restaurant is so warm and cozy… the same feeling I got from ourmeal. It’s BYOB so bring your favorite drink and try this place. I promise you… you will not be disappointed!“

The food was amazing and the atmosphere, music, dancing was a lot of fun and not where you felt you were being picked up or come on to all the time...it was a nice place. Can't wait to go again.“

“Delicious food! family ambiance impeccable service, Alejandra is the best waiter ever ?“

“Absolutely delicious food - wonderful and generous staff who gave us such kindness and some extra treats for our meal. Also it is very affordable and you get a HUGE amount of food for your money. Each meal is about $10-$15 and honestly could feed at least 1.5-2 people probably. Plenty of leftovers.

The Saborcito Platter is amazing, delicious, and a great deal. Probably enough to easily feed 3-4 people for just $30.“

“Welcoming friendly atmosphere. Food was delicious, with nice portions. I will definitely come back here. yummy 😋“

“I had a very nicely served meal with my boyfriend. We went to eat a dinner plate with Skirt Steak, rice, and black beans. I really loved the guacamole flavor 😋. All the food very tasty and delicious 😋. I would like to complainant my waitress Diana. She did a very good job with our service. I would recommend the Quetzal Restaurant to family and friends. I will score a 100’/, to Quetzal Restaurant.“

“Tasty food and Excellent service. We loved the Sancocho de res and the Sandwich de plátano con carne.“

“la mejor comida ,con un toque especial y el gran amor que nos atiendw“

“Probably the best Stake I ever had. 🏆“

“Absolutely delicious, healthy, hearty and filling food. I've only been here twice this month and the menu is extensive and the prices extremely moderate for the quantity and quality you receive.

Last week I tried their lunch special which was a beef stew over rice ? and a salad ? next to it on the same gigantic plate. All the lunch specials are accompanied by a large bowl ? if homemade soup. The broth was very rich chicken ? broth with small round pieces of corn ? meal floating inside. The chicken itself is quite generous in portion and you might find a little bone so be careful and eat slowly ?

The server is extremely friendly and offers some good suggestions. He brings you a basket filled with fried plantain chips and two dips.

Today I chose the garbanzo ? ? ? salade and an order of 2 cheese ? empanadas with an inca cola.

The salad is a perfect size for lunch. My server initially warned me it's not too tiny and not too grande but honestly of you want my opinion it's a very healthy option and quite filling because it comes with freshly sliced avocados ? some onions ? chickpeas and tomatoes ? and is big enough as a main lunch course.

The atmosphere here is so welcoming, cozy and peaceful. The seating is comfortable like your in someone's private home kitchen. I definitely recommend this Ecuadorian Ristorante both for the quality of ingredients and the extremely clean and cozy environment.“

“Hit up Sugar Blow in Lakeview—cute AF spot that’s part cafe, part boutique. Snagged some empanadas, the famous tequeños, and a double latte— ended up around $25. The empanadas had that crispy golden crust and melty filling, and the tequeños? Legit the best in Chi-town. Vibe’s chill, owner’s super friendly, and the space is cozy with cool merch. Perfect hang spot—highly recommend!“

“Delicious, the onion just like the gye one, the fish, everything, the wadding a 9.5/10 because obviously they don't use the same branches but the lemon makes it precise, the delicious quacker like the one your grandmother makes, the incredible attention, I am very happy, they serve it as they serve you there, delicious and delicious ?? “

“Authentic flavorful food! Nice portions and seasoning. The chicken was juicy and the skirt steak was cooked perfectly medium, not overcooked which eateries make it seem like it is hard to do with skirt steak normally. Beans and rice and plantains were on point too! I Door-dashed but will definitely make this a regular place to stop in!“

“deliciosas comida,y bebidas“

“Everything is delicious! Everyone is courteous and it's very clean and comfortable. Bring the whole family if your craving flavors. Come here often. Chicken is delicious. Chocolate cake out of this world!!!!“

“I went to this place with my whole family, we came from Orlando to have a great time, get to know the city and of course to eat, and we are demanding, yes, and you know what? We were happy not only for the food but also for the good vibes, the friendly and attentive nature of all the staff, we liked everything, the empanadas, the sandwiches, oh and the drinks!! The best, if you want to have a fun time and be treated like someone they have known for a long time, this is the place for you and the whole family.“

“Gracias a Don Fidel y Doña Maria por la amabilidad y rica comida. Queria pasar mi cumpleaños almorzando come rey y sin duda alguna La Peña me hizo sentir asi.

“really over priced. ordered viognier was delivered chardonnay, for a few glasses of wine and a.single order of guacamole with tax and tip it was $80! Hard pass.“

“Sooo Goood. The calamari was perfectly breaded and the citrus aioli sauce was delicious. My Asada y Papas was melting in my mouth. Highly recommended.“

“Best bean burrito in Chicagoland!“

“The service was fine. Our server was polite and responsive. The atmosphere is casual. As there are lots of hard surfaces, the noise level is somewhat high. The food was good. The "black truffle" barrata is a ball of cheese on top of some stewed green vegetables. I detected no evidence of any truffles in the dish. No truffle aroma or flavor. Seafood pasta primavera was tasty with fresh seafood.“

“Really amazing food, very reasonably priced. Super nice staff. Definitely plan to come back.“

“La comida es muy buena! :) 10/10 Lo recomendaría!“

“Muy buena atención, buen ambiente muy alegre y deliciosa comida“

“Authentic offerings on the menu reinforced why we were trying a different experience. In a store-front but easy to find and easy parking. The owner came over to our table and introduced himself and was very cordial and we had a smiling exchange. He came back again after we had a chance to sample our dinner to see that all was ok. The flavors were outstanding and plate presentation equally so. The dining room may be straightforward but the staff are eager to please and deliver an authentic meal.“

“Went into their new location on Fullerton and the service was phenomenal the ladies were both very attentive food was so good I will be definitely coming back.“

“Excellent ambience, great food,drinks and friendly service. Great new restaurant, from my point of view 4.5 stars.“

“I would eat more but stomach has a limit. I have been visiting this place for years and I have tried everyone the menu. Never disappointed. I always go for the churrasco and the carne asada. I recommend highly the chimichurri with extra lime. You'll be in heaven after that.“

“I asked for a free one to take away, it took about 20 minutes to deliver it and when I tried it I didn't like it at all.
I ordered a small juice (not natural)
If I don't eat already dissolved juice and they charged me $5“

“I regularly order takeout from here and I have dined in multiple times as well. Extremely friendly service, GREAT food with huge portions. It’s rare to find someplace that makes everything perfect and the same every time. You can tell everybody that is there from the cooks to servers care and that is refreshing. Steak Chilaquiles and the biscuits and gravy are amazing and huge portions. I will keep coming back as a loyal customer:)“

“Good morning Today I thank with God's infinite blessing these people, the owner and the staff who serve them, they are simply the best human beings I found in this city Today from Colombia I wish you all the infinite blessings in Health, Love and Wealth, they deserve this and much more From Colombia, Alexander Loboa greets you and thanks you for everything.

“After visiting The National Puerto Rican Art Museum in NW Chicago, the ISU Spanish Club and I stopped here for lunch. The food was fantastic! Huge portions. Excellent value. Superb quality. First time I had Honduran cuisine. Glad we went there!“

“Great service , great food ! Definitely will be back !“

“Great food And service ....“

“The restaurant itself has a gorgeous modern trendy feel. Staff was courteous and attentive. And I loved the variations of entrees. It's not your typical mexican restaurant. They put a twist on EVERYTHING. Knowing that everything is made IN HOUSE is a plus for me. Definitely a place I would recommend for a party, family gathering or evening just a meal with friends. I will be returning OFTEN ☆☆☆☆☆“

“Muchas Gracias 🙏 a todo el Equipo de Apollo Campero especialmente a sus directivos y asociados muy lindo el cambio de colores y además ya hay salsa de México 🇲🇽 y muy pronto 🔜 prometieron el cambio de sus tortillas para mejorar muchas cosas buenas y su sabor único míl Gracias a su equipo de trabajo de parte de DeliaMar Mega Shop y Floreria DeliaMar les esperamos en Indiana nueva sucursal soon.“

“Our server was Trey!! I had the smash burger and a margarita! Everything was so delicious! I recommend this place to anyone! It is a Mexican spot so getting a burger was sorta strange but once I read the beef was mixed with Chorizo I was sold and just had to try it. It didn’t disappoint. The Guacamole/ salsa and chips were as very tasty! A must try“
