“This was my Second time visiting this restaurant, and I brought my guy in to try their food. Ms. Darcy waited on us, and she was warm, and inviting as we walked in. We didn’t even have to get up when our food was ready, Ms. Darcy brought it to us!! He had a catfish dinner, and he thoroughly enjoyed it! I had the chicken wing dinner and it was a hit as well!! We tried the jerk egg rolls as well once we got home and they were good…not spicy enough for my taste though. The atmosphere here was a bit “smoky” I’m sure from the grills but the smoke consumed the dining room atmosphere. Overall, we were pleased with the food and may come back to pick up take out!“

“Visiting my son and he suggested this “place for tacos”. Well it was way beyond tacos. This is a jewel of a place literally hidden in south suburban Chicago. The chef is adventurous and he goes way beyond traditional Mexican fare. We had an amazing mussels in chipotle sauce, that you will want extra bread for dipping. My son had a massive salmon burrito. He said the salmon was cooked to perfection. The chefs special was a four cheese ravioli with crawfish and a delicious sauce. Again, not your typical Mexican dish but terrific.The place was sadly deserted on a Tuesday night. I hope people check it out as it deserves love.“

“Never a bad visit ~ hubby and I eat there at least 2-3x a month lunch or dinner. Staff is friendly and attentive to the customers. Food is delicious ? portion size is good. Very nice neighborhood diner for us. Prices are reasonable. Easy access parking.Thank you !“

“First time visiting and I ordered Al Pastor tacos, Chorizo sope and a quesadilla for the kid. Kid like it and mom approves ??Authentic Mexican food flavors and some of the BEST Al pastor I have ever eaten. Service was very nice when I ordered, restaurant looks and smells clean. What a Gem!“

“Absolutely delicious food!!! Great atmosphere. Excellent service. I am a tough food and service critic having worked tourism for 17 years. Seems so quaint and small on the outside, yet you walk in and wow! I came in for a burrito to go and ended up staying for hours. Excellent service, food, and company from the bar tender. I am now a fan and will always return.“

“This place, what can I say that would give it justice? I am a truck driver along with my wife and daughter in the truck with me. We are parked over night and wanted something other than junk food. Gracie's was suggested by one of the workers at the Petro/TA and I told my wife about it. She being from Chihuahua Mexico and was Leary about Northern Mexican restaurants. We went, we are, we lived this place. When we walked in, we were treated with warmth by the ambiance of the place. Small, joyful and filled with love. The seating was close and personal, but very comfortable. I ordered the Taco el pastor with rice and beans. My wife ordered the Chile rellenos with rice and beans, my daughter ordered the Cecina which was seasoned flank steak with sides of beans and rice. I left full and satisfied, my wife ate her entire Chili and was reminded of her home. My daughter couldn't get enough and was trying to continue to eat, even after we boxed it up to leave. The only thing I would say bad about this place is, the stationary chairs aren't made for bigger people, but still I give this place a 5 star review. Thank you for the great food and the ever lasting memories.“

“One of the best in Chicago heights! Me and my husband have lived in the area for 5 years and have pretty much tried every Mexican food spot- this is definitely one of the best. Great customer service and the food came out very hot and tasty“

“This is my go to spot. Some weeks I've been here multiple times. Everything I have tried has been good but my favorites are the shrimp quesataco, taco sombrero, taco Mexicano, quesabirria tacos (love their consome), and enchiladas. Nothing I've had here has been bad. Service is fast and good too.“

“The ladies that work there are very nice they take your order and get you your food in a timely fashion they're always smiling and they love to see familiar faces everything on the menu is very good and I love their chicken tamales everything is delicioso and their beans and rice are off the chain“

“Legit one of the best tortas I had in a while, they have specials during the week so I was here on a Wednesday and got the Torta and drink for under $7bucks good deal friendly staff and my order was done fast. Small family own join so a must visit in you in town“

“Everything is the best here! Including all my ladies bartending and serving!! Always friendly, fast and delicious food. My favorite place since one of my Big Bosses invited me here year’s ago but I declined his offer for dinner and drinks. I don’t like mixing business and personal. Keep up the great work!! Best margaritas hands down!! No store bought mix!! Only the fresh stuff!“

“Vegetarian options: Menu is not vegetarian but if you for your plate to be modified they will make sure that it is. All of their food is authentic they make it, the owner is very friendly will say hi and welcome to everyone. Very welcoming!“

“Consistently good food. One of the best queso fundido around. Give it a try with poblano. Good price points. Steak dishes are always good from a burrito to carne asada. Cantador is great if spicy is your thing. Not really a bad dish on the menu. Good selection of tequila and flavors of margaritas. It does get busy at peak times, but worth the wait. A community staple for years.“

“Ordered tacos for breakfast. They were made fresh and still hot when I got home. Steak tacos had a good amount of meat and good flavor but I loved the chicken tacos which I never really do at taco places. Chicken was nicely seasoned and tacos had good portions of meat. Service was also friendly and welcoming. I would definitely come back“

“The menu here is fantastic, 10/10 quality Mexican food paired with really incredible brews, was so excited to see a California burrito on the menu! Make sure you get the green sauce on the side. We attempted to try this place out before a Matchbox 20 show a few months ago, but didn’t make it in time and I’m so glad we tried again this weekend.“

“I tried Taco Vida for the first time tonight. I thought that I would start out with the basics. I had two beef tacos. They were delicious. The place was clean. Not a long wait. The girl who served me was friendly. I can’t wait to try some of their other food.“

“Man these Tacos and Tortas are the best. Every time I am in the South suburbs I come here to grab some. They are cash only so come with cash. The guy's been working here forever. They just recently repainted and remodeled just a little bit. The food is the same from years ago when I was coming here. I'm glad they're back open“

“We went on a taco tryout trip and ordered steak and veggie tacos from five different places in the Chicago Heights area. La Fonditas was picked #1 by all 4 people in my group, one of which was a vegetarian. Best taco I have had in YEARS! So good we went back later that night and tried other items in the menu. All of which were just as good. This will definitely be our go to place fir Mexican food.“

“First time visiting place. Visitor from Indiana looking for a place with good nachos. Well, I'll have to say I found it. The serving of nachos with meat was great. Piled high. No skimping on anything.Very short wait. Clean and friendly place.“

“I have not been here in 5 yrs no longer in Illinois..small neighborhood store with the beat tamels & carnitas ever and I've had a lot of carnitas..they only have them on Saturday & Sunday but worth the wait..the meat & masa ratio is perfect..the carnitas definitely the bestMessage to the cook..Keep up the good work..I will be back...OH yes like everything else the price has gone up to 8.99 a lb...but my craving was satisfied after 5 years it was worth it??“

“I have a lot of food allergies, so I am always cautious with food prep. However, the people at Habaneros are always kind and remove certain ingredients that I can't have. Not only are they accommodating, the food is authentic and absolutely delicious.“

“The food is great and the custservice is good. It's the best customer service I've seen in a very long time.The atmosphere is great for dining but don't sit near the doors.Parking: Over 10 spots to park in.Kid-friendliness: Iv'e seen children here on many occasions. They're welcome, too“

“I have lived here in the heights for many years and this is the first time I have eaten here and let me tell you, this restaurant is one of the best Mexican restaurant ever..The waitress I had was named Julie, she pleasant and courteous. My order came very quickly and the food was amazing. I will definitely be coming back here for sure on the weekend to try the homemade tortillas. I give million star rating.“

“Love this place. They have all the yummy treats from sweet to spicy! The owner is so so kind! Always makes his customers feel welcomed. Small spot, has a few seats but definitely more of a stop and go. Besides that I love coming here for a nice snack.“

“Great small father and son owned place. Food is delicious and authentic and they are the most REASONABLY priced in the area and the best quality. Rice and beans are delicious as well. Cash only but I understand why with inflation. Worth It to keep costs down for owners. Will always go back here in the oak forest/tinley/midlo area.“

“This place is the best! Their elotes, mangonadas, and diablitos are amazing. My family and I go here whenever we can and they never disappoint. The family that owns this business are also very good people that will treat you right every time you come in. Highly recommend!“

Every day they work extremely hard to make the "MOST AMAZING" buffet that starts at 10:30am and it's unlimited food!The soups, quesadillas, beef tacos, cinnamon and sugar chips, taco salads and the list goes on of the most fresh and delicious food. They really put their heart into the food at this location.Best Pepe's Ever!“

“The food was excellent, they made it just like a requested!! I got the steak tostadas with rice and beans. Customer service was good and the prices were reasonable. They have a good sized menu as well with plenty of options. Don't be thrown off by the location being next to a gas station. I will be going back at some point soon!“

“If you know you know it's a late night gem. Everyone knows the guy that takes the orders and even if you don't he acts like he been knowing you for years. Food on point for the late night Hunt just be aware of your surroundings while “
