First time ever leaving a google review. This place was so good, I immediately had to come leave a review.

We had a large group in the restaurant for Mother’s day. Half of us received food that cold or under cooked. Several got sick afterwards. Your cooks needs to be more careful with the food.

This place has a variety of Mexican food. The food is very tasty, and the waiter was also kind. Overall, highly recommend.

This is a true Mexican restaurant. It even has a true Mexican “feel” to it (well as much of a Mexican “feel” you can get in Illinois anyway. The wall hangings, furniture and the like inside put you in mind of a Mexican cantina. The roof of the building is made of arched tile. There is a small fountain in the lobby and a cool picture of a man using a spear of some kind to harvest cactus on the host/hostess station. The food is very good. My wife loves the steak and shrimp fajitas. When we make the order to go (As we did this evening) we always ask for a couple extra fajita rolls as there is too much steak/shrimp/veggies to make just 2 (which is how many they come with). They weren’t super busy when I was there but it still took about 20 minutes to get my to go order up. That’s probably about right though as it would’ve taken that long if I was seated inside the restaurant too…just seems longer when you’re not sipping on a soda or a cocktail while waiting. You can call ahead if you don’t want to have to wait for them to cook the food fresh. In fact a lady picked up a called in to go order while I was waiting on our order. She was in and out in 5 minutes. Prices are reasonable (not a bargain but fair). They also have daily specials. They are written on a whiteboard just inside the front door

The food was good. The cheese dip and salsa were tasty. Server was kind and checked on us not too often, but not too non-often.

My son took me here for Mother’s Day lunch. The service was very friendly and fast. The food was amazing and not overly expensive.

Shrimp was a little bit overcooked, but not really enough to return. Seemed to be better the time before.

This is one of our favorite Mexican restaurants for the food and atmosphere.
