“Our server Jessica was fantastic. Friendly, patient with our questions and spot on taking care of us (4 people). The food was excellent!This was my 1st time here and I'll be a returning customer plus bringing others as well. Thank you so much. 😊“

“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!“

“If you’re searching for a taco spot that genuinely lives up to the hype, this is it. From the very first bite, you can tell they’ve mastered their craft—every taco is packed with juicy, perfectly seasoned meat and layered with bold, vibrant flavors that hit all the right notes. Nothing feels rushed or generic; everything tastes intentional and seriously satisfying. And then there are the gorditas—easily the standout. Rich, and stuffed to perfection, they’re the kind of dish you keep thinking about long after you’ve left. Honestly, it’s hard to go wrong here. Every item on the menu delivers the same level of quality and flavor, making it one of those rare places where you want to try everything. Bottom line: this spot isn’t just good—it’s a must. Whether you’re a taco lover or just someone who appreciates incredible Mexican food, you’ll leave already planning your next visit.“

“Friendly and amazing food!!!“

“Kelly is an amazing host and person to work with when we were planning our daughter's baby shower for 20 guests. Lots of compliments from our guests about the appearance of this venue. We would HIGHLY recommend Main Street Station for a smaller venue atmosphere!“

“super rico y muy buena atencion recomendable“

“Staff was courteous; menu varied with traditional Mexican cuisine.
A bit too pricey for my budget. At $14 a burrito, wouldn't be able to visit regularly with 5 of us.
If your passing through Fox Lake, I'd suggest you give them a try.“

“Good the best“

“Some of the best made-from-scratch Mexican food in the area! Highly recommended.“

“Had the pleasure of dining here today with my wife while on a short vacation, and it truly stood out as an exceptional experience. Food: Whoever is in the kitchen deserves a raise—everything we had was nothing short of phenomenal. Fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Service: We were served by Holly, who went above and beyond to ensure our dining experience was top-notch. Highly recommend requesting her if you visit! Must Try: I’m not sure how they do it, but their chips and salsa are hands down the best I’ve ever had—absolutely unforgettable. If you’re in the area, do yourself a favor and treat yourself to a dining experience that’s truly above the rest.“

“Excellent food and service! Huge breakfast menu with so many options!“

“Their food is sooo good! Tried the food at the 2025 Walworth county fair. 😋 We will be going to their restaurant.“

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

“Great lunch menu, delicious. Great service.“

“Me and my teenager love this place. Tacos are great!“

“Love the food here! But, not great customer Service. The service was pretty fast… But they did not have any cheeseburgers as it said on their menu for the kids meal. I also did not have any chicken nuggets from the kids meal, They also had no Lengua tacos and only enough steak to make three tacos. And I would also recommend updating your website to include that you no longer serve alcohol“

“Taco Tuesday has been the best!! $1.00 and they are so amazing. Will definitely be going to them as my main for Mexican food around McHenry county!! Check them out!“

“Food was good. Not life changing Mexican food. Plenty of authentic flavor, salsa was good. Not that spicy. I personally prefer more spice but I'm Latino.

Service was kind and respectful. Kept making sure I was good without harassing me. Definitely a good spot to go to regularly.“

“We got El Vado's food truck for a private event and we couldn't have been happier with the food. The three employees busted their butts kicking food out fast for us! They were so kind, and communicated throughout the event to ensure if we wanted to keep the truck open. Thank you again for elevating our event with your amazing food truck!“

“King burrito is the best burrito I've ever had at any restaurant here in the states or in Mexico. Nelly is the friendliest and best cashier , order taker ,food server ive ever dealt with . Highly recommend this place for food and service“

“Always a delicious spot for lunch and dinner. Daily specials posted on the white board inside. Tacos never disappoint! I always get 2 tacos and some rice with a horchata. Dine in available but beware parking a little weird outside and if you're unfamiliar with unloading wheelchairs in a slight slant I would park in the side or exterior of the building of at all possible. Parking is limited and easier to pull into going north bound on rt 12. South bound you sit in the meridian until traffic dispurses. There are also signs posted for not parking at the local deli next door, just avoid the south end of the building actually.“

“Good selection of Mexican food, products, produce, and snacks! While we didn't buy from there, we bought from the restaurant attached to the supermarket. There's also a currency exchange counter, which has Vigo by Western Union. This supermarket is also a safe space for immigrants and other vulnerable people. There's a meat, deli, and seafood counter. The supermarket has a good selection of hot sauce and spices. There's also home cleaning produce. The produce section has what you expect. Fruits, vegetables and some Mexican ones like Aloe Vera. You can find specialty snacks and drinks like Mexican soda and chips. There's also some plates, bowls, and ceramic products. But one of the freezer doors has glass cracked. Did not break but that was concerning. In the restaurant attached, we ordered 2 shrimp tacos and tortas. But a small complaint, the tacos were quite small for 5 dollars each. They come with lime, and red and green hot sauce. But they are still delicious! So, if you're looking for a local Mexican supermarket with standard products, Mexican specialties, a welcoming place, currency services, a meat counter, and delicious Mexican food, this grocery store is for you!“

“Best steak tacos I’ve ever had! The steak is so flavorful and tender. This is my go to place when I’m in the area. Staff is very nice. So happy they now have a bar.“

“The food is pretty good, their burrito's are excellent. I have ordered for pickup from them around 4 different times now and each time something is either missing or wrong with the order. Not too big of an issue, if you call them they will make it right. But still, kind of disappointing to keep getting stuff messed up with the orders consistently.“

“Great place! Our party of 5 bellied up to the bar and had a great time. Jim our server and Scott the bartender made some great recommendations on drinks and apps. Watermelon margarita was the best one in the flight we had. The Tequilla Old Fashion was fantastic! Definitely made new friends and will be back often“

“the best Al pastor tacos !!!! not to mention the lomo and arrachera is also #1“

“Love this Taco Bell! I always get a grilled cheese steak burrito and it’s perfect everytime.Always get DoorDash late at night. And they always make my food to a T! Also anytime I go through the drive thru they are just so sweet and kind! I know it’s fast food…. but thanks for being a consistent comfort food for me and I know it’s gonna be top quality EVERYTIME! Thanks guys!“

“I have to give credit where it’s due! 🌟 For a while, I was honestly starting to lose confidence in this location because some of my previous visits weren’t the best. Unfortunately, the customer service experience often felt lacking, which made me consider taking my business elsewhere. 😕 However, everything changed during a recent drive-thru visit. 🚗✨Maria went above and beyond to turn my experience around. Although my order was missing an item at first, she handled the situation with genuine care, professionalism, and kindness. 💖👏 She personally apologized, quickly resolved the issue, and made me feel valued as a customer. Her positive attitude and dedication completely changed my impression of this location. 😊 Maria is a true example of outstanding customer service and would be a fantastic role model for training staff. 🌟 Thanks to her exceptional effort and friendly approach, I’ll definitely be returning and giving this location another chance. Great service really does make all the difference! ❤🙌“

“I came into the restaurant last week and Nina was working. Absolutely fantastic service helped my daughter choose her new favorite meal from Taco Bell and the service was unforgettable 10 out of 10 100% grade a service from Nina!
Thank you!“

“Their new green sauce is delightful. Hate the kiosk ordering which is challenging to order from. Why is a medium soft drink $1 but a small is $2.39? Yes they will still let you order at a cashier but there is no menu so you have to use the kiosk to see the selection. Why are the signs now all saying Taco Bell delivery? Do they not want us to come in?“
