“I LOVE the jerk chicken tacos, they are so FYE!!!! Whoever would”ve thought or known that a Mexican/Latino place can make jerk chicken tacos BETTER than these African places and I STAND on that! I don’t even get any sauce because it’s not needed. Im hooked to the point I haven’t even tried anything else on the menu besides the Mexican corn and it’s fye too! Eventually I will try other menu items but right now I just can’t get pass them JERK CHICKEN TACOS that I eat at least 3 times a week. They NEVER disappoint!“

“I went and the customer service was amazing food was good and well seasoned 10 outta 10 would recommend“

“Small place but we really enjoyed being able to sit in front of the kitchen. More of an option in Chicago so big thumbs up there. Steak tacos we're on point. Not dried. Hints of lime and definitely juicy but......... the chorizo tacos stood out over all. Bursting with flavor and cooked perfectly. My wife stated they made her feel like she was back in Mexico. Both tacos were a stand-out at this restaurant. Bottle sauce seemed roasted and gave a nice back to all the tacos we ordered. Highly recommend the Chorizo or Carne Asada for any dish you chose from this dive but dime in Hammond. Al Pastor, and Tripe are solid choices as well. The pork was tender and the tripe was cooked on the plancha until it had the perfect crisp.After posting this saw more reviews aside from my wifes in person but stating "reminds me of Mexico"“

“First time stopping in, being Christmas, not much open. I was surprised by how good the food is. Check it out, finally some decent food in Oak Forest.LOL“

“MUY BUENOS MARISCOS Y EL MENUDITO LOS FINES DE SEMANA 😋PRA LEVANTAMUERTOS RECOMENDADO 🎩👍🏽“

“The food was very good, the only thing I didn't like was that the tip was charged without explanation.
Plate $16
Drink $3
A total of $19 plus taxes would be $21 and they charged me $27. I asked why and they told me taxes... the same thing happened to three other people at that time and the answer was the same. Once again the food was very tasty but tipping would have to be an option and believe me I always leave a good tip.“

“The tortas are bomb, there always so good. I would 100% recommend them to everyone I know.“

“I like this place. It’s very cozy, and the atmosphere on the weekends has a man playing guitar and nice oldies that remind me of my mom when she used to play her music when i was a child. The service was on point. Waitresses are very polite, and they all come around checking on us, making sure everything was ok. Im saying not just one waitress in assigned to one table all four come to check on you every 10 min. I had a tampiqueña and wanted my skirt steak medium well, and the cooks made my steak well done, unfortunately 😑 but other than that, the flavor from the steak was exactly what I was looking for, seasoned to perfection 👌 bold flavors, rice made nice a fluffy,beans guacamole all in my homade corn tortillas made fresh,mmmmm i just ate and already wantbto go back, lol. The enchilada on top of my steak and the enchilada poblano sauce was really good with light melted cheese just the way I like. Most definitely going back again soon.“

“This place have the best food and the people work there are so nice and friendly I love this place I recommended every family and friends too come here and eat the food is amazing and delicious ???“
