Experience Elgin's Mexican food at these fantastic spots.
“This is our favorite Mexican restaurant, visiting almost once a week. The food is consistently good, great chips and salsa. Alex, Carlos, Lydia and the rest of the gang always make us feel welcomed. Can't forget the margaritas, best around!“
“Ate here for the first time and I was blown away. My chicken burrito was so tasty and seasoned to perfection. The white cheese sauce on the top was to die for. Chips and dip was excellent, refried beans with cheese on top was fantastic, same with the rice. Guac and guac salad was delicious. I can't think of the first thing I didn't like. They told me 20 minutes, and when I walked in after 15 minutes it was waiting for me on the top of the bar, and they spoke to me right away. Awesomeness. A+. I'll be back soon to dine in and get it hot off the plate.“
“I enjoy coming here! There is never a long wait for food. The employees are very pleasant and polite too! The food comes out piping hot, and it taste very fresh! Biggest thing for me is the consistency of good experiences. Probably one of the best Taco Bell‘s in the surrounding area!“
“This place is awesome, the food is great and the staff was very nice. The places was advised to us by our friend that is from Mexico and she loved it.Parking: The parking is tight as it is a small location and very busy. It is worth it if you can find a spot.“
“Love this place! Pretty much any thing you try will be good. The only bad part might be waiting to get in. If you go there between meals then no problem. Service is quick. Food is great and very consistent and nice quality products. Flavors are the taste of home. Servers are attentive and friendly. They want to serve you well and with a smile. Prices are not bad considering quality and consistency. I take all my friends there, and they keep wanting to go back. As long as they are open I will go there especially Lugoff location. Weve tried other locations as well and they're good too but this one is the absolute best. Try it if you dont believe me.“
“Always a pleasure dining here! Friendly staff, excellent service and good, huge portions! I had the Casa Amiga Bowl and a medium mango habanero margarita. Dee-lish-US!!! I’ll be back for a celebration meal next week. Music was too loud, though.“
“Always a pleasant night at San Jose. Attentive service, good food, and fun atmosphere - solid restaurant experience for the past 4 years. Great place to take the family.Vegetarian options: Spinach enchiladas are delicious and the chunky guacamole is amazing.Parking: It's a very popular restaurant so their parking lot is usually busy, but we can usually find a space or twoKid-friendliness: We see a few large groups and a good number of families dining together.Wheelchair accessibility: No steps and plenty of tables.“
“The best Latin American food in the area, and for a good price! It’s authentic, hot, and fresh. They were willing to accommodate vegetarian options of the menu as everything is made to order. I can’t eat at other close by Mexican places because they lack gluten free options. Most of the food at this place are made from cornflour not wheat flour so I was able to enjoy most of the menu ?“
“Hailing from San Diego, I was seized by an irresistible yearning for some late breakfast chilaquiles. To my mild surprise, I noticed that even though they offered various protein options, they didn't automatically crown the dish with a fried egg. Another eyebrow-raiser was the absence of beans, a staple in many chilaquiles servings. On the flip side, they did present the meal with a side of rice and salad.Naturally, I decided to take matters into my own hands and requested the addition of an egg, which incurred a minor supplementary charge – nothing substantial. It did cross my mind that I might have been able to make a swap, perhaps beans instead of the salad, sans an extra charge, but I didn't test that theory.In the end, the culinary voyage was marked by freshness and exquisite flavors. It's important to remember that the preparation of chilaquiles can vary significantly across different Mexican or Mexican-inspired eateries, making these nuances rather trivial. I must say, I relished every bite of my meal, and the warm embrace of the customer service only added to the enjoyment of my dining experience. ????Kid-friendliness: Yes“
“Food is super fresh and FLAVORFUL! You can tell things are homemade and that makes all the difference!! Family owned restaurant - owners are so sweet and friendly! Will definitely be back again! Wish they would open a restaurant in lexington next! :)“
