“Azul was recommended to us by a friend. We had the steak tacos and had to try their Cochinta Pibil tacos. Their steak tacos had great flavor, with a nice selection of salsas. Their Cochinta Pibil tacos are a must try! Their Cochinta recipe is over 100 yrs old and has been handed down to the owner. It definitely shows in its unique and distinctive flavor topped with a traditional pickled red onion with a touch of habanero. So good!!! They have a small menu, but it's about quality and not quantity. The drinks were great, and the service and hospitality from the owners was very good. You can tell they take pride in their dishes. We'll definitely be back again for their authentic Cochinta tacos, and look forward to trying their other menu items.“

“JAMES HYDRICK recently brought my fiancee back to my life, after we have been composed for 9years. We have stayed living favorably without any delinquent. I always converse about matrimony with her but she replies me with, And promise me that we will soon get married. I was shock on a faithful day when she called me and told me that she is no longer interested in the relationship, because she met another guy, and they were almost getting married. I was stunned and dizzy after hearing that from her. I was so drained and tried to get back to myself because deprived of her it was dreadful because I truly love her with the whole of my emotion. Until I was fixed up to JAMES HYDRICK whose email is (divine.spells@yahoo. com) I communicated with him and he guaranteed me that my wish will be settled unto me after 48 hours, and he told me to count on his words, and he gave me every purpose why I have not to worry any longer. So that was how James came into my marital life and fetched my girlfriend back to me after 48 hours as James hyrick guaranteed me, and now here I am affirming of his virtorious works. And he also cast money spell for me that really well-ordered out for me. So I will recommend you to contact him once you are in need of magic spell. he is sincere and real to help you out..

“Friendly atmosphere and good food , fast service. we asked for gluten free food and they knew what it was! When I visit Joliet to meet with my good friend, we always stop at Vela's for lunch. Is it the good food? Yes! Is it the friendly, but professional service? Yes! Is it the kind of place where you can just relax,spend time and not feel rushed with friends or family in the warmth of an enjoyable restaurant? Absolutely! The cost of lunch, also makes it a practical choice for families and friends to enjoy. You know I love it so much, that I'm going back tomorrow.“

Good portions, generous on the seasoning. They have so many options on food and drinks. Who would’ve thought horchata mixed with coffee! What a great combo!It was definitely a pleasant experience. Service was on point, friendly and very attentive. My husband grabbed the names of every staff that worked that day. I’m sure he will have his own review. Shout out to all the workers on 3/10. Definitely a place to stop for authentic Mexican food. 10/10 will recommend!“

“I recently ordered 150 tacos for a party and they were just divine. The owner was so great to work with, very kind and helpful. Plus they deliver which made things 100 times easier! They had many protein options which was nice for a change compared to some other places that only offer chicken/beef. The tacos themselves were packed with meat- definitely was not skimpy and the tortillas held up and didn’t break apart. Everyone continuously asked where I ordered from. I will definitely be ordering again for our next event. Can’t wait to try the other meat options!“

“This past Saturday we had family over and so we decided to order a 10lb catering tray of carnitas. Price was good at about $78 bucks for the 10lbs. Carnitas were amazing! We got mostly meat and I'm glad we didn't get a bunch of cartilage and bones like other carnitas spots do. We are on day 4 of carnitas dinners now due to lots of leftovers it's tortas ahogadas for tonight! Highly recommend their carnitas!“

“The food I ate. I thought the cooker were already, ready be prepared. It is a nice tiny kitchen. Thus my first time in the place. Nobody can get the property next door. Cause it's already owned. What a place as Scott Street? Better then Unlimited Ribs in Crest Hill city, towards my choice.Vegetarian options: The onions wasn't fried. The privacy of a customer is hidden. I been to alot of places, of Hispanic and Mexican taste, of food, in grocery stores and food restaurants, around Joliet city.“

“El Primo is Minutes away from Harrah's Casino and at lot less expensive. The atmosphere is traditional Mexican setting. There is a bit of a language barrier if you don't speak Spanish, but its fun to trying and figure out what to order. They have a weekday special, such as Dollar Taco nights. Its near the railroad tracks, so if you a railroad fan, its the place to go. lol. It is kid friendly. But if you go later is mostly adults.“

All of my guests loved the food I highly recommend them. They were very patient and the quality was exceptional. they checked in with me the day before to confirm if I needed any changes. Saturday the food was ready to go at scheduled pick up time. Portion sizes were great and bigger than any other restaurant I inquired with. Everything was great. I will be ordering from them again and I highly recommend that you do as well. Nice job guys!“
