“A friend recommended Las Jacarandas for great Mexican food in the area. We ordered a ton of items to take out. Was not disappointed whatsoever! Tried an assortment of items (chile relleno dinner, variety of tacos such as beef, fish, steak, pork, chorizo, chicken mole) and everything was excellent! The sides (rice, refried beans) and the sauces were all excellent and better than any other Mexican restaurant. Cannot wait to eat in next time!..This place rocks!!“

“Very nice atmosphere, friendly waitress, I had the enchilada suiza, which was delicious, great flavor. Ribeye and shrimp was very flavorful. Steak fajita was flavored well too. This was my first time here, this will become a regular.“

“EXCELLENT food, reasonably priced. Everything was fresh tasting and delicious. We will be coming back to try other menu options!“

“One ☝️ of the best Barbecue spots in town. Great food awesome customer service. And love their Thursday game night free entry w/karaoke.“

“This was an amazing first experience at LaCretta! Our amazing host, Garrick, showed us an amazing time. Detail, courtesy, professional and knowledge of menu items and drinks were beyond my expectations! I think I found my new tribe and place of fun, amazing food and family!!!“

“After hearing so many good things, I finally got to try Fajita for myself and it didn't disappoint! Food and service were both excellent all around. I look forward to my next visit already!“

“My husband and I already ate a small breakfast when we decided to stop in and get a couple of tacos just to try the place out. We are definitely coming back! The carne asada tacos were absolutely delicious! The restaurant itself is cute and very clean. We can’t wait to come back and try something else from the menu.“

“Excellent food, we didn’t have the belly space to try the chicken, ground beef or veggies tacos. The pastor and Barbacoa were top notch. The steak was good too but I would do the barbacoa over the steak. The Guacamole was thick and delicious with sauces that were flavorful and complimentary to the food.“

“No body until I came across this restraunt makes menudo as tasty as my father did .He's blind now so he fell in love with yours .Hubby going back to get more and with pata .Only thing we're Texans so we add hominy to ours.Every thing made fresh ,beans and rice delicious too. We found our new spot .“

“Amazing food, amazing staff, and amazing service. A place I will continue to go for years to come.“

“taco was absolutely amazing! The flavors were perfectly balanced, the meat was tender and well-seasoned, and every bite was packed with flavor. The tortilla was fresh and held everything together perfectly. You can really tell care went into making it definitely one of the best tacos I’ve had“

“The best Mexican food in Indiana Great service and food.My FAV.“

“Tacos were delicious. Did carryout and was quick! Will be back!“

“They were super friendly and the food was delicious 😋“

“era la primera vez que asistímos a tomar un almuerzo y la comida no fue la mejor elección tenía un sabor poco agradable como que se estaba descomponiendo“

“They use to be my go to but since the owner doesn't be there anymore they be messing up. I've asked to speak with the owner for 2 different occasions and never got a call back. I've been rocking with them since they were on US 30. I always spend over $20 anytime I go there but when my oder is messed up I NEVER receive any accommodation. How do I order staek and shrimp fajitas but get home and dont have shrimp and I was told the only thing she could do was not charge me for shrimp next time I make a purchase or I could come get the shrimp that THEY forgot to put on my food. Merrillville location“

“supporting latinos because latinos make america great 😘😘“

“Great customer service and the food is amazing!“

“Food was pretty dang awesome. Our server was great. My daughter and I went there for mother's day and she upsold us on a margarita and an horchata. We usually just get a pop. We came in an hour before closing and I felt bad because I know that last hour its a hit or miss how long customers stay. But she was very friendly got our orders in and out quickly. 10/10 would recommend!“

“Service and food were both fabulous.“

“Places like this will be over looked if you not from the area. This food is great and service is ok, but the hole in the wall spot will have people like me not returning because how are you investing into your business. Why not fix up the place when you are making good money. I don't like investing in places like this.. it looks a mess inside and out.“

“We had our sons graduation party catered by Tocayos and it was a huge hit! Amazing food and service. Would totally recommend them for your next party or dining in! The owner Miguel was so great to work with and made the process super easy. Loved it!“

“We absolutely love their food. We usually get take out but the few times we have went in with our littles the staff was extremely friendly and caring. They always give all the kids a candy. It’s so nice to bring your little kids somewhere and not feel like a bother!“

“We found this place on our way to Raleigh, NC from Chicago. Stopped here after reading reviews online. TRUST THE REVIEWS that say this place is good...IT IS GOOD! We just moved to the Chicago area from South Texas, so we know good Mexican food and this place does not disappoint! If you are anywhere near Gary Indiana, you have to stop in to Chela's. It's not fancy at all, but is very clean and the prices are good. We had the Birria Tacos, chips and salsa and several different meat tacos. Then, on our way back from North Carolina, we stopped in again! My fiance thinks this is the best Mexican food outside of Texas. THAT'S saying something! We can't wait to go back!“

“Best Gyros in Merrillville! Don't forget the Chilli Cheese Dogs or Pizza Puffs! This is Old School Pirate Food...“

“Food is always fantastic, hot and fast! The Karla tacos and Karla quesadilla are my favorite menu items. Have never been disappointed! Keep up the good work.“

“If you haven't tried Tere's Mexican food, you need to! There is a limited but excellent menu. They have one menu item that I have seen nowhere else but here: deep fried quesadillas. It's not what you imagine.. it's better than that! For a unique experience of authentic Mexican flavor, try one ASAP! Also, they serve tamales on every day they operate.“

“great food been eating here and at market city flea for over 10 years, great people“

“Had my birthday dinner there, called in a reservation a few days before and everything was set up on arrival. They were even able to store my cake until the table was ready for it. Great food and drinks. Everyone who helped serve our table was so kind they were on top of it!“

“Went here to give it a go for the first time and it did not disappoint! Ordered the chicken burrito for myself and my boyfriend got the steak burrito. Both were delicious and flavorful, as well as PACKED as you can see from the photos- they’re big burritos! Fair pricing for the amount of food you get. We will be back to try other items on the menu for sure. The girl at the register who also took my orders was very nice as well !“

“The food is great. It is my go-to place for Mexican food. It's very hard to find good Mexican food near my home. Now, the young lady who takes the orders always has an attitude, for some reason, regardless of how nice and polite I am to her. I do wonder how that impacts their business.“

“OMG……Nanas NEVER DISAPPOINTS!!! So so good!! Such a sweet owner and delicious food!!! Couldn’t ask for a better combination!! Thank you Nanas!!!“

“forbiddyd!ddy drink 🍹 😮‍💨😛😜“

“El Capitan on Hobart is a fantastic spot with a welcoming atmosphere and excellent food\\. The menu offers a great variety, and everything we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly\\. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived\\. Service was prompt, and the restaurant was clean and comfortable\\. Whether you’re stopping by for a casual meal or celebrating a special occasion, El Capitan is definitely worth a visit\\. Highly recommended—I’ll definitely be coming back\\!“

“I had one of the most wonderful experiences there!

I felt like such a nuisance because I was going back back-and-forth about whether I wanted a refund or not.

For context, I was picking up an order for a pregnant friend and trying to navigate their cravings as well as a busy staff.

My manager was very nice, even threw in a cookie, she’s very understanding, even though I was confusing her!

If you’re willing to wait for quality food, then you’ll have the best meal ever!“
