“Mario was a very good server! I appreciate his hospitality, service was good as well! Can’t complain at all, because food was totally fantastic. Great well flavor combos from food to drinks. Definitely would come back thank you for a great evening.“

“Food was pretty good, the only thing was that the lady taking my order was nearly impossible to understand, she was mumbling quite a bit. if you get the burrito, I do not recommend getting the melted cheese on top, it was nearly a pound of cheese. However, i strongly recommend the horchata, that was delicious!“

“La-La the manager is great very professional and a great leader…. She always seem to be moving, She doesn’t hesitate to tells me about upgrading and saving and also new foods or spices she’s always smiling and it seems to me that she is there 7 days a week lol, La-La gives exceptional service best manager ever thanks La-La for the great service you and your team deliver we appreciate you over here at the Sheridan…….“

“I must say that the food was very delicious, the service from Daniel was excellent, the quesabirrias are delicious, and the micheladas are on point, I highly recommend this place and I hope to return soon, every time I come on a trip to Chicago this is my place favorite.“

“The food was delicious, my husband loved the burritos and the slaw.Also, I don't know the name of the person who served us today. But there were quite a few people and he was alone, with one person in the kitchen, he still kindly served us all, thank you very much for that.“

“I wish I had pictures but the food looked so delicious we just jumped right in; we weren't wrong. We recently moved from the city to Elmhurst and were looking for tacos that could live up to our neighborhood taco guys and we are glad to have found taco villa. Their al pastor is sweet and spicy, just perfection. We also tried the asada and it was good but the al pastor is the way to go. Can't wait to visit again and try some tortas!!“

“I've been a loyal customer of Tamales Norma for years, and they never cease to amaze me. Whether it's the traditional pork tamales or the creative vegetarian options, each one is consistently delicious. It's no wonder they have such a stellar reputation!“

“This is my partner and I’d favorite place. We love the food and we love Paco (the owner). His creations are a stellar reimagining of the traditional Mexican dishes that we all love.All the dishes are not only Paco’s artworks, they come from love.Will always be this restaurant’s biggest.“

“Wendy( server) was very friendly. The food was incredibly delicious! My wife had the nachos and they were amazing. Presentation was beautiful. I had pastor tacos. The pork was very flavorful, the sauces were tasty (a little kick) but not blazing hot. Sides were rice and beans and the beans were homemade. Overall we were more than pleasantly surprised. Definitely a place to return to, we were told the shrimp tacos are supposed to be the Bomb! Have to come back for those.“

“Hidden gem !!!! Quality Food. Clean. The people are so kind. You can TELL they love what they do. Take for example the salsa stand, they make a variety of mild and hot home made grilled pepper salsas (FREE) for you to put on your food. That alone was fantastic. I like a simple veggie burrito with extra beans. They will grill you up some onions and pepper as well to add to it. Frankly, they are accommodating and true chefs. Sunday they have a special lamb thing i may check out. In short, it's an authentic mexican restaurant. Simple. They cook things to order, so be patient. Or, order ahead! So lucky to have this place. They should put some quiet pretty mexican music on to add to their already cute/authentic atmosphere.“

“HIGHLY RECOMMEND! We love the food here. No matter what he have ordered - IT'S SO GOOD. You can tell from the food that the owner LOVES TO COOK. He has meals off menu that he likes to offer because he tries new things. The love of cooking is in everything he does. The service has always been really good, no matter who we get. This is our go to place quite often.“

“I am an avid eater!!, yes and I have been comparing this place and it’s simply great. The place is clean, food is very good and authentic and most of the family works. Only concern is that the place is small and it gets crowded on weekends.“

“First time trying this tonight. Best tacos in the Western Suburbs. Everything was amazing and the service was above and beyond. They really want their customers to have a great food experience. Definitely worth stopping by for lunch or dinner.“

“This place could easily be passed by, it doesn’t look like the quality food and excellent service establishment that it is. The workers could not be nicer or more efficient, and the food, OMG the food is AMAZING! Highly recommended and cannot wait to go back. Oh yes - their tortilla chips are a must taste!Dietary restrictions: The vegan tacos!????Wheelchair accessibility: Easily accessible and they had the table set up to accommodate our guest in a wheelchair before we arrived.“

“We ate there a few weeks ago for the first time. Its delicious, the people are super great and since we are working nearby we have been back multiple times its so good. We had Tacos, Birritos, Birria ramen and sopas...ALL delicious to perfection!“

“Had to try the Pizza Birria! It was amazing would definitely go again to eat it. The Birria Fries ehh not the greatest, fries were pretty hard a little cold. But they were to go order so will give them another try for Dine-In. Overall recommend this place. ??“

“I've been here many times now, and love it!! It's busy most weekends and holidays and nights tbh, lol. So expect a bit of a wait, sometimes. It's worth it. Besides you can walk up the street and have a quick beer at Orange and Brew or Emmett's Brewing Co. while you're on their waiting list. It's just a short walk; get that 5 minute walk in for beer and food!! Enjoy and cheers!“

“Lily's cafe is such a cute breakfast spot! The food was delicious and was out very quickly, the service was great and everything came out perfectly! It is a bit on the smaller side so I would bring no more than 4 people. But I loved eating here, a great hidden gem! We had the stuffed French Toast and it was delicious!“

“This was a great place for authentic Mexican food. I rate restaurants not on how fancy they are but on several factors. It starts with chips and salsa, then basic items like tacos (steak/al pastor), then enchiladas. I had tacos (steak, pastor and chile relleno). All were great. Of course service and cleanliness is essential. I highly recommend this place.“

“Wish I could give service a 6/5. Food was out in 5 minutes and the woman running the front was above and beyond accommodating allergies. The food was so good I forgot I was ordering Mexican food in the midwest. Parking was an issue but thats the only complaint.Dietary restrictions: Very nice and accommodating. Cannot recommend it enough.“

“Nice little spot. Service is superb. Tocos are small but they are flavorful. The Gordita with chicharrón prensado, simply amazing. This is a must have if you come here. Everything is also very affordable. Will most definitely be back for more of that chicharrón prensado!“

“This place is legit! I’ve been meaning to try this little taco shop since I can walk to it - yesterday I finally did and wow! Surprised me at how great the food was and will definitely be back again.The inside is small but can seat a few folks but it’s the tables outside that make for a great spot to enjoy some tasty food with friends. Make sure to grab a horchata too! So yummy!“

“This resturant is an absolute gem! The cocktail list is impressive and delicious. There are multiple, delicious craft Mexican-inspired cocktails. If you like spicy, be sure to select something with the homemade jalapeño simple syrup! The food was excellent. It is no exaggeration when I state that I had the BEST ground beef taco I have ever had. The al pastor taco and guacamole were delicious as well. Locals, we need to keep this place open. This family-owned and run resturant is a wonderful addition to our community!“

“I will definitely come back for the carne asada torta that tasted charboiled with the soft bun. Also, the warm and soft lengua tacos with the green salsa. They pack the tacos with lots of meat and 2 tortillas each. Horchata tasted homemade with a fine grain and obvious cinnamon flavor. Overall, everything was well made and flavored.“

“Very friendly people working here. Service is fast. The food is good and authentic. The churros (dessert) are tasty. They are not a sit down restaurant it is pick up and takeout only. Affordable prices and good portions. Overall would recommend.“

“5 of 5 I got lunch in Bensenville I saw this on Instagram Chalupas and cenitas Chalupas homemade tortillas red & green salsa onions and quesi fresco delicious I also ordered the cemita especial with homemade Chipotles I miss the papalo on it Was huge. I eat 1/2, and I take the other half home I will be back soon to try the molcajete The staff and service on point Thanks, see you soon again This restaurant is located in the plaza in the corner next to the dollar tree“

“This is by far the best burrito I have ever had in my life! It is the juiciest, tastiest, and freshest ingredients that I've had in a burrito, and I'm so happy that the location came back in Summit, IL. If I could rate it ten stars I would.“

“This is another great family owned and operated buisness. They have a wide variety of specialty sandwiches. They offer variety of dinner options. I haven't used the catering before but I'm sure these guys are good at it. The restaurant is a hidden gem and need to look for it a little. It's clean and didn't see any signs of insects, etc....The specialize in Mexican food but as I said they have multiple specialty dinners that are not Mexican. I personally ordered a patty melt to see how they tasted, and it was great. Please support family owned businesses. I think corporate will do fine. ENJOY!!!!Parking: Plenty of parking.Wheelchair accessibility: It's ADA compliant.“

“Nice little counter serve restaurant in downtown Lombard with a cute interior and friendly folks behind the counter. We dropped in for vegan nachos and margaritas. The vegan cheese and chorizo were on point. We'll come back soon and hopefully get to enjoy the patio, too!“

“After googling many places in our area my husband found this place to get us some Quesabirrias. And my husband and son went to order some dinner. They were on point very good the meat was tender and it was not greasy. The consume was perfect for dipping. Everything was hot. The dinner comes with three and some rice and refried beans. The tamales were very good and moist not dry.Overall the place was great and the food was excellent, we found a new taco joint to go to. I usually love to add photos. Sorry but this time the food was gone so next time I’ll post pictures of the food.“

“I absolutely love Big Rigs! From their food truck to their restaurant, their food is always so delicious. My go to is always a Quesadilla de Alpastor (tortilla hecha a mano). They’re a pretty decent size, I get full with just one ? definitely always recommend this place to people ?“

“I'm from Central Illinois but do quite a bit of traveling and have been searching for the type of birria I have eaten in both Mexico and on the west coast. Every place before has left me wanting, searching for the angel that is true birria and consume. This place totally delivered. The meat was so incredible tender, the onions adding a bit of crunch, and the consume was not only full flavor (and the perfect level of heat) but had that distinct mouthfeel I've been looking for.If you're looking for great authentic Mexican food you have got to try this place. I seriously don't remember the last time something was so good I was compelled to leave a review.“

“We ordered catering for my husband's birthday and they did not disappoint. Everyone loved the food and we have amazing leftovers. We have loved them for some time but their willingness to accommodate our small, birthday gathering just makes me love them more. Kudos Los Dos!“

“This place is always my go-too for lunch. My coworkers & I would choose this spot over several other Mexican restaurants near by. Food is always fresh & they never forget to give salsa or utensils in the to-go bag like other places do.Vegetarian options: This place customizes well for vegetarian people.“

“Very unassuming place. I just walked in randomly and had their steak burrito and a few tacos - food was excellent, very generous portions, great prices, and super clean. So glad to come here afterwards and see it has so many good reviews. Very well deserved!Dietary restrictions: Halal“

“The tamales are FIRE!! Moist, airy (not dense), and fully of meat. I bought the rojos con pollo, verde con pollo, rojos con puerco, and a oaxaqueño para rematar The family devoured them!!For me, the oaxaqueño was top notch and by far my favorite kind of tamal to eat!! It was SUPER moist and almost gooey…and LOADED with sauce, meat, y muchísimo SABOR. Just the way I like them. The champurrado was also very good.This was my first time trying Isela’s Tamales and I know the wifey will send me to Isela’s for otra dozena “

“Beyond expectations! Countless memories of a night filled with joy and celebration - thank you Valladolid Banquet Hall for making my daughters quince amazing. Very emotional seeing my daughter's dream exactly how we envision it coming true. Beautiful decor, service was great, and the food was delicious. We can't wait to be back. Please keep us up to date with any upcoming events! Thank you Valladolid Banquet Hall again.“

“I never write reviews but this one was warranted. The service here was excellent and the turnaround was fast but the Carnitas were outstanding!!! My husband had a gordita de asada and it was exceptional. We'll be coming back for the Pozole on Saturday!! Highly recommended this place.“

“Super Homely resteraunt. They have karaoke Friday nights! Yummy food combos! We had a breakfast platter and a 3 taco steak dinner! Sweet margaritas, frozen and fresh! The manager is so friendly! Made me feel like family! Place is clean and I love the aura!“

“The food here at least for the carnitas, are hands down the best, i live near the ORD airport and used to drive down all the way down to the southside for some good carnitas. Thank goodness, I no longer have to since finding this gem of a restaurant. Another indication that this place is great is because it always has customers, never empty. Oh, and their champurado is da bomb! I haven't tried other stuff on their menu like tacos, flautas, etc. But I can vouch for the carnitas. staff is also friendly and very clean.“

“WHAT A FANTASTIC EXPERIENCE! Was warm and inviting from the second we stepped foot in the door. We were greeted by Alexia, She went over all the options and the menu! True world class service. Our waitress Bridge was 10 out of 10! The level of service and attention given was exceptional. Then the real star of the show arrived!!! HOLY MOLE ! Ever flavor ever bite was so tender and warm… ? thank you .“

“Personally I love their Al pastor burrito, suizo, but all of their food is delicious. They use the freshest, high quality ingredients and it shows. The burrito ? is exceptionally light for a meat dish, and goes down very easily. Maybe it's me, but the fellow diners are really friendly... And the owner/host is a great guy. Highly recommended.“

“This place has authentic handmade tortillas and Mexican cafe de olla!! Chips and salsa are also great. We tried the huevos rancheros and chilaquiles with eggs from the breakfast menu, and also ordered one quesadilla and one tamal with mole. Everything was exquisite, although chilaquiles were way too spicy. Portions are very large, for instance, the quesadilla is maybe the size of two tortillas.The service was very slow. However, the waitress, Sully, had a positive attitude and was very friendly, even though the place was crowded.In general, the place/atmosphere is nothing fancy but the food is worth trying. We would be back some time!Vegetarian options: Eggs with nopales, quesadilla, chilaquiles“

“The food was excellent and for a very reasonable price! Order at the register, and they bring the food to your table. There was no dedicated wait staff, so it had a fast food feel upfront, but the food was full service restaurant quality. We didn't have to wait that long to get our food. Speed was on par with or slightly faster than a typical sit-down mexican restaurant. Overall, come for the food, not the dining experience. 4.3 stars! I would definitely recommend this place, and I will come back!“

“At this taco spot, it's as simple as order at the counter and grab your food there, too. There are no prices on the menu. Just pick what you want and go for it. I tried the Al Pastor and steak tacos, and they hit the spot. But the real star was the guac and chips – I absolutely loved it!“

“Waitress was nice, order was quick. Portions were great. We tried the flautas and enchiladas. It was nice they actually included avocado without asking. We also tried the steak tacos, they were good and tortillas were fresh. The salsa served was REALLY good, we didn't realize there was salsa bar until later. Fur next time!“

“I have been looking for a good taco place to go to and I stumbled upon this place. Let me tell you they have great tacos here. The young ladies that work here are nice and welcoming. The food is very fresh and good. Price is reasonable. I had the two taco special and it was great. If you are looking for a good taco this is the place to go to.“

“Very cool.. drinks were excellent, so were the nachos!! Service was very good, especially since the girl was handling the bar and the tables with a lot of patience and ease. The reason for not giving 5 stars... prices were slightly more than what was on board and menu. Make sure you pay attention to tip, it's automatically added for 4 or more. Will be back.“

“Naturally I was hesitant because it’s a taco joint that also does pizza lol but I was not disappointed. in a town where bougie taco places charge 4-5 dollars a taco . Tapicozza is cheap and authentic. The asada tacos had flavor , salsa is on point, Mexican coke was frosty. 10/10 would eat “

“I ordered pick up for half a gallon of red pozole and ceviche. The ceviche is exceptional and diced exactly how I like it, very small, and came cold just how it’s supposed to be. The pozole is delicious and the toppings come in a large portion. Pozole was still very hot when I get home. I like cabbage, cilantro and radish instead of lettuce so if you order here make sure you have the toppings you like at home.“
