I was not having a good day but tried my best to not show it. As I'm eating I saw a man come in. Eat by himself and then left. My surprise when I went to go pay. This man had paid for my food. Who ever it was Thank you so much if this is ever read. That was a beautiful gesture and completely made my day. I got my son his haircut and took him for some ice cream afterwards. I will definitely pay it forward“

“Great Customer Service & Delicious Authentic Mexican food“

“Great place. The food is consistently good!“

“Had the Steak Burrito. The presentation, size and taste were what I expected. They had the good hot type / red sauce which some other places don't have. However it seemed as if the lettuce and tomato overpowered the steak/ beans & cheese? Not quite sure but something was off with the lettuce ? It did seem to be the typical shredded lettuce I've had in other burrito's?“

“All their food is delicious! The best family owned restaurant in Des Plaines!!! Tacos, Burritos, tortas are amazing!!! Guacamole is freshhhh! Both Hector Jr. And Jenny have been our waiters and both are phenomenal. We'll be coming back for more.“

“the stake plate is superr delicious 😋“

“Taco Maya is so good! If you've never been here, you have to go! There are a lot of tacos of different types here. One that I highly recommend for anyone to try is the Paneer taco! I ordered one to try and immediately regretted not getting more. The quesabirria is excellent! Try the coffee, too! You will be pleasantly surprised. The staff is very kind!“

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at this restaurant, and I can’t stop raving about the experience! From the moment I stepped in, I was impressed by the vibrant atmosphere and welcoming staff. The food and drinks were absolutely delicious and incredibly fresh—seriously, even the water tasted super refreshing, which is a rarity!

I decided to try the marlin ceviche, and it was a game-changer. The marlin was perfectly marinated, bursting with flavor, and the presentation was beautiful. For my main dish, I ordered the huevos rancheros, and it did not disappoint! The eggs were cooked to perfection, complemented by a rich and savory sauce that tied everything together. Both dishes were so good that I found myself savoring every bite.

I can’t wait to go back and explore more of their menu. If you’re looking for a great meal, I highly recommend visiting restaurant! You won’t regret it!“

“Delicious steak tacos and mild sauce 10/10!!“

“Went to La Hacienda de Roselle for lunch/dinner. Best place ever for Mexican food. They give you so much food and it is very inexpensive. The staff there is friendly and you get great service. I can't say enough how great the food is. Best Mexican Restaurant in all of the Suburbs of Illinois. It deserves 5 Stars and even more! Love it there! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“The food here is so good!!! My favorite restaurant EVER‼️‼️‼️‼️“

“The quesabirria tacos were so delicious! The consomé was full of flavor and the waitress and hostess were very nice!“

“Amazing food and drinks!!“

“Love the nachos! Super yummy and a fun change up for lunch. The staff unfortunately created an uncomfortable dining experience with a lot of cussing and yelling coming from the kitchen. F’bombs about politics and covering shifts made for an unpleasant atmosphere. The lack of maintaining a professional environment or even a family friendly environment was lost today. Sounds like the staff needs a manager to be present. Take your nachos to go.“

“Went here for the first time after seeing a TikTok and the food is GREAT! It’s DELICIOUS 😋 definitely a place to try with your fam or a date the drinks are well presented just like their dishes! I had the 12inch Quesabirria and it was flavorful“

“rica comida, meseras amables y ricas bebidas“

“This is gonna be my new Saturday spot.The meeting after the meeting as a business owner. You love to talk about different things or goals for the week definitely was able to have a good meal and set goals for the month with my business partner. I will be back the customer service was great. The food is great and the atmosphere highly recommend.“

“Great dinner tonight. Mexican Indian Fusion. The seasoned chips were served hot and Salsas were flavorful. Portions were plentiful and the prices were family friendly. You can choose 3 different street tacos with rice and beans for $15! The staff was very attentive as we were outside dining. And the waiter left us a pitcher of water for the table. It was most appreciated. We definitely will return.“

“Really GREAT customer service! Steak taco dinner was fantastic! Loved the rice & beans. Horchata was delicious too. Very satisfying and great prices! The owner and his wife are so nice!“

“Everything was freshly made ,the salsa was delicious and the rice and beans sooo good. Everyone loved their tacos and even our 4 yr old ate all his food. I definitely recommend this place and I’m extremely picky. Place is also extremely clean and very kind staff.“

“Best Mexican food I’ve had outside of Mexico. The best quality perfectly cooked steak I’ve ever had in a burrito. Priced very affordable. I pray this place never closes. I’ll be traveling back to the area just to go to this place. I’ve been to every Taqueria inside every supermercado from Chicago to Milwaukee. I’m telling You, this little place is the best!“

“I like this place a lot because the food is crazy good and it's clean. The service and atmosphere are lack luster and the food makes up for it. I drive by this place going to Los Burrito's often. I wish they were more friendly and I would go here more.“

“I’ve been coming for over 30 years nowhere comes close to your food. Always consistent— authentic and fabulous food!“

“We went to Mago in Barrington last night for the first time and were blown away. They were very busy so we sat at the bar. Service was fast and friendly. Food was terrific and the menu features things you won’t find at your standard Mexican restaurant like three choices of mole. Tableside guacamole is absolutely lovely. I have to say, though, what made our experience was watching the magnificent bartender. His efficiency, speed, and obvious dedication to what he was doing was just a marvel. He never stopped moving! We will definitely be back as every aspect of our experience was very enjoyable.“

“The fact that this restaurant has anything less than 5 stars is crazy. Their food is SO good. I get their queso fundido w/ Chorizo and chicken quesadilla. The queso comes with homemade chips and flour tortillas. Honestly some of the best Mexican food I’ve ever had.“

“They are always quick yummy and very nice people there, I am a celiac and they even keep the chips separate fryer, go there!“
