Food and service are good. Good selection of dishes and beverages. They accommodated our group of 14 and service was very attentive.

Hadn't been in this restaurant for a longtime because last time we were there we had a bad experience with the food and the service was very poor.. This time we decided to try because another family member said it was good and other reviews for last 6 months have been very satisfactory.. So, the food was very awesome and tasted very authentic.. However, the server we had , we had a bit of a language barrier.. It seems as though he had a hard time understanding a food allergy of a family member that couldn't have the specified menu salsa and or sauces spilled all over the tops of the food items.. Family member could only eat what was served inside burrito or taco or tamale, but not served on top of tamale or others like that, but other than that the inside was totally remodeled and no longer looked like the Monical's Pizza it used to be on the inside .. It was all modernized with new leather chairs and booths, new black tables and decor all around.. we were pleasantly surprised at how it looked and how great the food tasted.. just wish we would have had better server experience.. we will definately return and have found a new Mexican restaurant as our favorite.. We were reluctant to return because of a prior experience, but that was at least 5 years ago.. No longer will we be frightened to return here more frequently.. Next time, I HAVE to leave enough room to try 1 of their VERY YUMMY LOOKING DESSERTS, that were on menu.. We were ll too full to fit dessert this time.. 😋

Do not eat here unless you want food poisoning. Ordered chicken enchiladas and have been puking for 12 hours straight. Horrible. Will not be returning.

We visited after going to Matthiessens. Food was good, not great. The service was good as well but we had a large party so it’s not fair to judge either way. Atmosphere was nice

Honestly, this is the best Mexican restraunt I have eaten at in Illinois to date. What an absolute diamond in the rough! I wish it was closer to home from me, thats my biggest complaint! The presentation was excellent, portions were big, over 10/10 dining experience! Can't wait to visit again
