My wife got the Carne Asada and it was burnt crisp and $25 bucks! She ordered with flour shells, got corn shells! My burrito was not the greatest!Very chewy! The Margarita's were small and $17 bucks each! Ridiculous!! Two places we go to have pitchers for $19!They are very very conservative on their chips. Not like all the other Mex Restaurants we go to! They wouldn't give us more because the server said they had a band coming in and did not make that much, but we could buy for $1.75. We refused! What Mex place says they didn't make that much? Almost $80 bucks 2 small drinks n 2 dinners, did not include the Tip! With the prices here, you should offer all chips n salsa customers want! Table of four next to us came in, got same amount of chips we did! Four people!! That's just crazy! Won't see us anymore!

Stopped in for the first time. Had the carnitas taco dinner on corn with beans and rice. Mary was my server and she was a doll. She has a nice pen with her name in it.The chips and salsas were fantastic.The carnitas were huge and amazing.Go there.

I’m from the western burbs of IL and have been looking for a good Mexican restaurant since moving here. Surprisingly, it was phenomenal. It was not a truly authentic American Mexican restaurant, but the quality of ingredients were great! We ordered the guacamole, shrimp ceviche tostada, beef tostada, and steak tacos. Everything was fantastic and would recommend all. They brought out a trio of salsa. All were different and all good, although we didn’t like the smoked chipotle salsa so much. The chips were thin and just fried. The watermelon margarita was also excellent. I was very pleasantly surprised by quality of ingredients. The service was great as well! Would definitely recommend, will be back, and would rate 5/5 ⭐️.

unripened tomatoes mixed into everything, burnt to a crisp steak, and they didn’t include half the items i asked for. idk if it’s just a bad night or this is regular for them bc this is my first time ordering, but all i have to say is: with the amount of mexican restaurants around here i wouldn’t even think of spending your money here, especially for the price.flautas, burritos, pico, guac, all were bad from here. and the CHIPS were stale. crazy.

Food is ok. I got the carne asada. It was not worth the $25. I had high hopes with it being highly recommended but was let down. This place is decent at best.
