“We had ordered Taco Bell the other night for pick up on the app, and once we got home, we had food missing, and the food just wasn't good. They were very skimpy on meat as well. We called in, and the gentleman said he would have our order replaced and to ask for him or Sandra. I went back today, and Sandra (manager) was EXTREMLY nice and helpful. Our food was fresh and delicious! She even threw in a cinnamon twist. Thank you so much for making it right with a smile on your face, Sandra! You ladies always do a wonderful job during the day shift!“

“Where do I begin? Welcoming atmosphere, clean restaurant, and attentive service. I'm not a margarita fan, but I thoroughly enjoy my strawberry margarita and would enjoy again! My fiancé ordered salsa and chips for an appetizer and we were both happily surprised with the fresh chips and tasty green salsa! After enjoying our appetizer we both ordered their three taco dinner special for taco Tuesday. My fiancé order steak tacos and I ordered a combination of chicken tinga, chorizo, and their house special campechano. Everything was amazing!!! My fiancé enjoys the spicier salsas and was offered a habenero red salsa. We sampled all three that was received and have nothing but good things to say about them all. Thank you for an amazing dinning experience tonight, can't wait to come back and enjoy a new dish in the near future! ☺️🌮🌯“

“Amazing food and even better service ❤️ Raul’s really makes the best tacos I’ve ever had and I could eat them everyday. But they are always suggesting new things for me to try and I haven’t been disappointed yet. Whether it’s a first time guest or a regular customer they greet everyone like family dropping by for dinner. The food is so good my friends from out of state talk about it long after they go back home. All I can say is If you haven’t had Raul’s you are missing out!“

“Definitely worth the few extra minutes driving up here from Round Lake. I showed up on Thursday to find out they’ve got an all you can eat taco special 👀 I gotta roll myself out to my car after this. Don’t let the previous rough construction out front fool you, this place is gold. I had the steak and chorizo tacos that were superb. Mango margarita slapped 👏🏻“

“Had a fantastic night at a painting event they had. The staff was super friendly and very attentive. The food was delicious and so were the drinks. It's a very fun and welcoming environment.“

“We’ve been enjoying Taco Tuesday at Mexican Paradise for the past few weeks, and every visit has been nothing short of fantastic. Brian, the owner, personally delivers food to tables and makes it a point to give every kid a high five and a ring pop before they leave. He and his wife are constantly moving through the restaurant, making sure every table is well taken care of while also connecting with their guests. The staff is friendly, attentive, and quick, and the food is always delicious with just the right portion sizes. Tonight, I noticed Brian taking the time to hold the door for an elderly woman and even walking her to her car to ensure she got there safely. Our waitress then informed us he does this every single night for his whole staff. 🥹 Dining at Mexican Paradise isn’t just about the food—it’s a full experience made with care, perfect for the whole family.“

“The best Food and atmosphere. Great friendly service.“

“The food tastes good, though sometimes the sauce portions are a bit small, but if you ask, they’ll give you more. Prices are on the higher side. I usually stop by after grocery shopping at Whole Foods with my family when we feel a bit hungry. It’s a self-service kiosk, yet it prompts for tips. At first, I didn’t realize and added a few times, but honestly, if tipping is necessary, it should go directly to the chefs.“

“Great Mexican Food in Downtown Round Lake with a Mexican Bakery next door“

“I am from Spain and I love Mexican food, in tacos del norte Mandelein looks like he is in Mexico eating.
The seasoning is very good.
The waitresses are very friendly.
The bathroom is very clean.
I really recommend it 100%.
When I visit Mandelein again I will return for sure.
I attach photographs of the food.
Thank you so much Tacos el Norte.“

“Sabor inigualable, deliciosas.“

“Tried it for the first time today and holy mole was it good. The place is small but very well taken care of and very clean. I got the Bravo Burrito w/ steak and it was an excellent level of yummy spicy. Beans and rice were good, less salt than i am used to for a mexican place, but honestly liked that. Overall, i am so going there again and am excited to try other things.“

“Very, very good lunch menu! Family owned, I will definitely be back!!!“

“Delicioso 😋 y el servicio excelente“

“Best place around with the most amazing, happy hour, and margarita flights! And Wednesday bingo is so much fun with free prizes! And their food is out of this world! Great atmosphere and People 😳!“

“Super good!!! Super happy 😃“

“Cute small restaurant off Rt 134 in Round Lake with excellent margaritas and delicious food. Got the Mexican Eggs breakfast and it was perfect! Eggs not runny or over cooked, more than enough for the 4 tortillas provided. Generous portion so I am bringing some home! Yummy on the rocks strawberry margarita with plenty of strawberries 🍓 floating in it. Several lime slices and an orange in the traditional margarita. Would recommend and we will definitely be back to try the $1.99 tacos on Tuesdays. 😁👍“

“You know sometimes you find a gem by accident. I was walking around downtown Fox Lake waiting for a car repair. I wandered into a clean unassuming Mexican restaurant and got their full attention. I was treated like a king. Large portions of fresh quality food at low prices. It doesn't get much better than this. Customers should be standing in line to get in. Fully five stars.“

“A mi en lo personal me gustan mucho las carnitas y sus tacos dorados ni se diga! Siempre Han sido muy amables con nosotros! Eh ordenado comida para un evento y todo rico!“

“Have lived in Round Lake Beach 17 years and this is my 1st time coming in for a sit down meal (Saturday 5/4, 7pm). The place was 1/2 to 2/3 full. What impressed me the most is the waitresses (only 2) were able to keep people fed in a very timely manner. The establishment is clean and the food was good. Both my spouse and I ordered the carne asada meal. Unfortunately one flank steak was a bit greasy compared to the other one. My spouse has acid reflux, so that's probably why she noticed this. Had an excellent experience, the prices are fair, and "yes" I do plan to dine at this establishment again one day.“

“Food was delicious and staff very friendly,food came out quickly“

“la comida muy rica ...la señora que nos atendio fue muy amabla ..lo recomiendo !!!“

“The best margs and Palomas around. The homemade tortillas are killer. I haven't had anything here I didn't like“

“The Mexican sweet bread is the best anywhere around this place. The chicharrones are the best in all of Chicago. If you are going to buy nopalitos and you want them without thorns, they will clean them right away. All their work staff are kind. God bless them and they laugh at their well-deserved money.“

“Si me gustó la comida . y tienen buen servicio. las meseras son muy amables“

“My go-to for plumbing concerns has always been Aligned Plumber's Service. When others failed, these professionals exceeded expectations. A recent emergency had me calling their dispatch in a panic, and they swiftly arrived within 30 minutes, preventing a potential disaster.“
