“Very authentic Mexican joint. It was cozy, but the food was delicious! Idk how to describe it but I've had Mexican breakfast before from many different restaurant but this one taste best like it was homemade. It's like there was more care made in the food. Not sure if that made any sense? but all I'm saying is if you go here you will not be disappointed.

Parking: There's free street parking all around the sides of building.“

“Came here to figure out lunch, found this nice and cozy place inside the grocery store. Ordered a veggie burrito and the order was ready very quickly (equal to the time of using a restroom and back). Good portion size I must say. The person also provided me with hot sause and salsa verde (chilli sauce) and I used up both to add more taste to my burrito. And I'm not a person who eats very spicy food. Overall, good service 4 star (the person presumed i was mexican- pl don't do that), food 3.5 star (id prefer a little bit more taste in the burrito itself so I would not need to add hot sauces on it) and ambience is 4 stars (it is clean and not too busy inside for this restaurant) :) happy shopping!“

“As far as Mexican food goes, this place is it. My family gets together here for EVERYTHING... birthdays, baptisms, going away, etc, etc, etc. We take up the back/side room every single time with no complaints from them ever, no matter how loud we get!The food is very good, comes out quickly after ordering, and servers are very attentive. Also, when celebrating a birthday, it doesn't hurt that they have their own panaderia right next door if you're in a jam. And then in the restaurant, they play Las Mañanitas if you're celebrating a birthday there. It's laid back. It's chill. Just no alcohol.“

“This La Michaocana location is probably one of the best in the Chicagoland area. They don't skimp on the fruits. Their slushies are not that good tho, they are basically frozen juice that has been crushed/crumbled. They're not drinkable, it's basically shaved ice.“
