“The margaritas were outstanding. The food was excellent as well as the customer service. My only suggestion was that they should serve chips that aren’t so hard. I thought it first they were stale, but I think it’s just a type of chip they serve. They were a bit too hard for my liking.“

This company becomes part of your team very quickly and you will be glad they did!“

“We were celebrating our 20th anniversary. Our service was done by Kaylea. Although she was very busy, she was very pleasant and helpful specially when I had to return my steak because it was under cooked to my taste. She took the steak back to the kitchen no problem and came back with a little better cooked steak with a brand new potato and veggies! The shrimps cocktail was very nice. Overall good food and good service. Perhaps the prices are a little higher but eating out these days is more then it used to be. Perfect location, right in the downtown market where is the Rideau mall, shops and restaurants.“

“Amazing fantastic food! great atmosphere & the service is friendly & fast!“

“This is the best restaurant ever the best food ever. I’m glad this place finally went up by Pilcher Park. Awesome restaurant good prices excellent food.👍👍👍“

“Just wanted to share my love for El Zarape in Joliet! It's become my go-to spot. I haven't tried everything on the menu, but their tacos and tortas are amazing. Seriously, they're so generous with the meat – way more than other Mexican places I've been to. And the best part? The meat is super lean! It's a little pricier than some other restaurants, but you definitely get what you pay for in terms of quality.

One small thing – the restaurant could use a little sprucing up. The booths aren't the comfiest, and maybe not the best for those of us with a bit more… *comfortable* seating preferences. Because of that, I usually just order for pickup. But the food is totally worth it!“

“Catered the taco bar at my daughter's graduation party today from the Bourbonnais location. The food was fantastic and Giselle did a great job orchestrating it for me. I'm very satisfied! Thankyou!“

“Seriously good food, great specials and great service! Lil Kayla never disappoints as our waitress:)!“

“Our food was delicious (I ordered a torta), the staff was friendly and accommodating and the service was prompt. They're located inside a service station, so the atmosphere was extremely casual. A good place to stop for great fast/casual Mexican food.“

“good food, low prices, great service“

“Good asf tf these reviews TRIPPIN!!“

“The tacos were amazing! We got two taco dinners and a corn in a cup. The tacos were flavorful and the rice and beans complimented the meal well. The elote was good, nothing amazing, but could have used more toppings. There is a tented seating area to eat your meal. Overall, everything was great so I look forward to going back.“

“Delicious food, made to order, always piping hot! Restaurant is very clean, freshly painted, and always simply decorated for each holiday. Staff is polite, knowledgable, and will explain an unfamiliar menu item to you. I have something different each time we visit, never disappointed. My husband is not as experimental as I am...he sticks to his tried and true favorites... tacos or a quesadilla. Pickled carrots and peppers are good too!“

“Good food, good drink and courteous staff.“

“Food was great, looking forward to coming back. Our order was to go. Next time we will eat in.“

“I can honestly say that I have never had a bad meal there.Since my wife and I discovered the Pepper Mill we go there on a regularly basis. I keep trying different things and haven't been disappointed yet.Add to that the people working there are on their game and couldn't be friendlier. We are lucky to have them in our area.“

“My family and I just got done with our dinner here, this is usually are go to Thursday spot. The food was excellent as always, service was great - although, they usually are slammed, as in, every table is full from 4pm-7pm, get there early or get there later, because it is crazy at that time. All around great experience always“

“Delicious food. Two dollar tacos on Tuesday are absolutely amazing and very worth the drive. Make sure you go to the Jefferson location for this special. My only critique is it can be difficult to get special request followed through. Make sure that you check your food if you have any special requests.“

“I cannot say enough about Tacos Maui! We had their taco truck at our party yesterday. Everyone loved the food. Tacos and sides were hot, fresh, and delicious. Service was efficient and the people are SO NICE. And they are so professional—easy to contact, responsive to questions, and took care of everything just like they said they would. THANK YOU!“
