Machetes #1 Joliet is a hidden gem serving delicious and authentic dishes. The menu features a variety of machetes, including the popular #6 machete with ham, chorizo, marinated pork, onions, and peppers. The restaurant offers good customer service and a clean atmosphere. The food is quite good, with large portions and unique flavors like the Asada Cemita and Asada Machete. Salsas are tasty, and the horchata is considered the best around. Customers appreciate the generous servings of meat, such as the lengua tacos that didn’t skimp on the meat for $10. While some parts of the building are a bit confusing and the bathroom is not well-maintained, the inside is very clean and the food is a nice change from typical tacos and burritos. The outdoor screened area is okay when the weather is just right. However, the establishment is located in Joliet, which is known for crime, so sitting inside facing the wall might not be ideal. Some items are overpriced, like canned soda, but horchata is worth the extra cost. Many customers suggest getting the food to-go and reheating at home. Despite the building's condition, the food remains a highlight, making it a worthwhile visit for those seeking authentic flavors.
