“Solamente quiero decir que este lugar no lo vuelvo a pisar tres horas, esperando no sirvieron la comida completa, la hostess hizo un comentario. Tienen hambre que se esperen otro manager, quería sentarnos al lado de la basura. Es una falta de respeto más aparte sus cocineros hicieron unas palabras anti sonantes. Otra falta de respeto. Cero recomendaciones enséñales a sus trabajadores ser profesionales“

“Estimados encargados de El Solazo: Espero este mensaje les encuentre bien. Me dirijo a ustedes como un cliente frecuente y admirador de su restaurante, en el cual siempre disfruto de una comida deliciosa y un servicio excepcional. Sin embargo, en mi última visita, experimenté una situación que considero importante señalar para su atención y mejora. El día de hoy, martes 26 de noviembre, llegué a cenar a las 8:45 pm confiando en la información publicada en sus redes sociales, donde claramente se especifica que el horario de cierre es a las 11:00 pm. No obstante, a las 9:30 pm ya se estaba anunciando el "último llamado" para bebidas alcohólicas. Además, durante mi estancia, fui testigo de cómo dos familias fueron rechazadas para cenar por el mismo motivo: el restaurante estaba cerrando antes de tiempo debido a "la falta de clientes". Entiendo que puedan surgir situaciones operativas, pero considero que este tipo de decisiones impacta negativamente en la experiencia de sus clientes. Cuando se anuncia un horario de cierre, los clientes planeamos nuestras visitas en base a esa información. De no ser posible mantener el horario anunciado, sería más transparente ajustarlo oficialmente en sus plataformas para que las personas puedan planear con anticipación y, en caso necesario, optar por otras opciones. Por último, quiero mencionar que esta inconformidad fue compartida con nuestra mesera, quien nos escuchó con amabilidad. Sin embargo, creo que esta situación requiere un ajuste desde la gerencia para evitar malentendidos en el futuro. Agradezco de antemano su atención a esta situación y espero que se tomen las medidas necesarias para garantizar que su excelente servicio sea consistente en todos los aspectos. Atentamente, Jesus Jesse Hernández“

“Don't let the fact that its in a gas station fool you! Best Chilaquiles east of the Chicago River!“

“As Islanders living here, this place is a piece of of home. Onolicious grinds!“

“Excelente food and great service“

“Very good food. I highly recommend this place.“

“I finally got to try Rubi’s on 18th and let me tell you. OMG! I do believe these are the BEST tacos, I've EVER had. The cashier was super nice and friendly, the food was fresh and there was a lot of it for the price. I can’t wait to go back already. I got 4 steak tacos, strawberry horchata, and guacamole and chips. Thank you guys! Monica Miranda! See you next time.“

“I make it my business to be 100% real in my reviews, in my opinion of course, and for this reason I decided to try this place and I have to admit I was impressed. Truth be told 6 yrs. ago I went to their flagship restaurant & had the most horrible service which was compounded by a wrong order changed to a cold long waited for order...this location renewed my faith in hospitality & great food ! I'm a stickler for authentic Mexican food, you know just like grandma would make & this did not disappoint. I believe in first impressions so the warm & helpful not to mention courteous service I received upon entering was a very good start. I asked for recommendations & if I could change a plate or mix it up & they were 100% accommodating! The best part was the childhood memories their food inspired me to have ! I was suddenly taken back to my Daddy's carne asada in the yard & grandma's salsa that went along with our food. Tortillas came fresh & hot alongside my plate and the wide variety of dishes accompanied by the vibrant aromas as soon as you open the door will assure you order too much food lol. Large variety of tamales options, guitars ( stews) grilled chiles and the best freshly grilled tacos de asada will leave you wanting more ! Im pleased to say I have a renewed faith in the institution & their amazingly flavorful very authentic Mexican food ! I can't say I'll ever go back to their original location but this location has proven that good service, good management, clean & pleasant atmosphere alongside the great food options will always leave you coming back for more ! Highly recommend this location only !!“

“Tacos con sazón muy buenos . Y servicio excelente. Precio justo .“

“Birria muy buena y Ahora tienen TACOS de Machitos y es de lo mejor que eh probado 💯% , Te mantienen bien atendido todo el tiempo“

“Best Carne Asada in the Midwest!because it’s al carbon! My family has been coming here since before I was born 🫶🏼“

“Great food and wonderful atmosphere!!“

“Delicious food! The carne asada pambazo is something I will for sure be coming back for. The bread was amazing and I would’ve been happy just eating that. The service is amazing and makes you feel well taken care of and right at home. I will be coming back for sure and recommending this to others as well!“

“Try as many tacos as you can! The fish tacos are a much but the birria tacos blew me away!“

“I’ve been coming to Carnitas Uruapan with my dad since 1995, and they have never disappointed us once. Every visit brings back memories and reminds me why this place is a true Chicago treasure. The carnitas are always flavorful, perfectly cooked, and packed with authentic taste that keeps you coming back for more.

One of the absolute highlights are their chiles jalapeños — they add the perfect spicy kick and take the carnitas to another level. You can taste the tradition and consistency in every bite.

If you want authentic carnitas and a true Pilsen experience, Carnitas Uruapan is a must-visit. Still one of the best after all these years!“

“I have been a vegetarian my entire life, and the vegetarian quesarito was my go-to item here. IT ROCKED. When I went in last time, our server said the chef said they will no longer make vegetarian quesaritos. NOOOOOOOO PLEASE ADD IT BACK AND MY LIFE IS YOURS!!!“

“Oooooorale’! We found another hidden gem! (Well not really hidden, lol) este restaurante está riquísimo! For all of you non-Spanish speakers, this place is delicious! It looks small from the outside, but it’s enormous in flavor! It’s a very cute and nicely decorated place. Staff is incredibly nice and helpful. But the food… it rocks! We ordered the Orden de Quesobirria and a Carne en su Jugo and a Agua de Jamaica (hibiscus water) and a Horchata (rice water). The Carne stew was delicious! So many levels of flavors. The birria was fantastic! Levels and levels of flavor. Will definitely be back for the Menudo this weekend. See you all here!“

“My staff of over 100 employees loved it. Statements all day was that this food can’t be from Elgin, it taste too good. I responded CTA and they said no wonder it’s so good and authentic cause it’s from Chicago!“

“Baby! When I say the best steak taco I have ever had!!!! So tender, so seasoned, so juicy! I will definitely return again and again. I purchased the taco for my son and i REALLY wanted him to forget about his extra one so I could eat it later. I was sooo disappointed when he didn't forget about it the next day, lol.“

“the best food in town 😋😋😋“

“Katie was our server and omg she was amazing. Half of our group was a lil buzzed from the cubs game and she handled it like a pro!!! Food was amazing but the service was better!! We will come back because of her!! Thank u Katie!!“

“So glad we came here!
The food was wonderfully delicious, and the entire menu was just fantastic from start to finish. The restaurant has a lively, welcoming ambiance that made for a really lovely evening.

Our server, Sadie, was so friendly and provided amazing service. Between the great atmosphere, top-tier hospitality, and exceptional food, we had a perfect experience!“

“Yesterday was my first time visiting this location, and overall I had a really good experience 😊 The food was super delicious and full of flavor, and the portions were very generous - definitely more than enough to feel satisfied 🍽️👌 I’ll absolutely be coming back again!

One small thing that could be improved is clearer signage. There wasn’t anything indicating that you can seat yourself, so I assumed I needed to order at the counter and wait for a number 🤔 Turns out I was completely wrong, and for a moment I thought I was about to get scolded 😅 The lady at the counter helped fix my order and guided me, and then I was able to sit down.

Aside from that little confusion, everything else was great, and I still really enjoyed my visit 🙌✨“

“It was about 3:30pm in the afternoon, I looked up food near me on google. Bam, Esperanza’s pupusas restaurant popped up. I love a good pupusa. When I saw the menu, I was to excited to pick. Luckily, there was a sweet lady that asked me if I knew what I wanted, while the cashier was taking his time with the other patrons. I seen he was very polite and very attentive to them. I didn’t mind waiting my turn. However, the sweet lady took my order and explained to me what a Puputaco was. So, I ordered a chicharron pupusa with asada on top and an Horchata. When they asked me what kind of salsa I wanted, I told them mild. I was starving so when my chips came they brought 5 types of salsas!! I loved every single one of them. When I say the service was amazing, impeccable, and just like being at your traditional Grandmother’s kitchen, I mean they have everything spot on!! The food was fire, delicious, savory, authentic, and extremely delicious!! Thank you for your delicious food and phenomenal service. I will be back and I will be sure to tell my family and friends. I didn’t get a chance to take a picture since I was so hungry. Next time.“

“The food and staff were amazing! Such a friendly staff who were extremely welcoming and attentive. I have never ordered ‘seconds’ at a restaurant until today! The tostadas were out of this world and the shrimp taco was delicious. A must try!“

“Muy rica la comida y buen trato“

“Husband and I both housed our delivered three taco meals with rice and refried beans in about 10 minutes (chicken for me, pastor for him). Exceptionally delicious, every detail was fresh and tasty...I'm already thinking about my next order from here if that tells you anything.“

“My wife and I have been eating lunch here once a week for a few months now. It looks like a mom & pop tamale place, which it kind of is, but Danny and Johanna have fine dining experience, which shows up in the quality and presentation of the food and the friendliness of the staff. We've tried most of the menu, but we almost always get whatever the special tamale and special quesadilla are. We always feel welcome. We always feel well-fed. We always leave happy, no matter what mood we were in when we walked in the door. It's one of the best places we eat, regardless of the price point.“

“The margaritas were amazing and the food was perfection! The mole sauce was some of the best I've ever had. Their chips and guac are next level good. Shrimp ceviche appetizer was delicious and the skirt steak dinner was amazing! I can't say enough good things about this restaurant!“

“the best Taco of Al Pastor I've ever tried and phenomenal service . I'll be back !“

“Food was amazing and prepared with care. Meinl Coffee is a huge plus! We will return.“

“love this place! i order from here at least once a week!“

“Excellent food! Menu is extensive and seasonal to a particularly high standard. Definitely fine dining. It can be pricey to some, but worth it and they do different deals on different nights so it’s worth checking them out. If this venue was in the #Pilsen area, you would def need a month or two reservations. The chef is #Michelin rated – say no more. Highly recommended. Next time in Chi-town I would def make this a stop. #exceptional #FineDiningMexican“

“Stopped in for tamales. Delicious tamales w mole 😋“
