The food at Hay Carumba is consistently excellent! The carne asada is mouth watering and the burrito has fresh ingredients that taste great! Additionally, they have a really good salsa. It is perfect with chips, but I put it on everything there. Lastly, the Margaritas are very tasty with a big selection of flavors. My family and I have been going there for years, and honestly, even if the food was mediocre, we would still go because the staff is so friendly and treat you like family. It’s just an all around great restaurant, and I highly recommend giving it a try! Five stars!

Decent food so so margaritas for us. Quality ingredients but flavors are not wow. Tacos, fried red snapper, guacamole or even premium margaritas ($15) all just okay.

Fast friendly service. Great atmosphere and a nice outdoor seating area. Food is average but gets the job done.

The steak tacos at Hay Caramba are a flavor of explosion! The tender, perfectly seasoned steak combined with fresh toppings and handmade tortillas create an authentic and mouthwatering experience. I keep coming back for these tacos that never disappoint.

Another “not my first time here, but first Google Review” for this place! It has been years since I last visited. Their Sangria is excellent and unique, and not pre-mixed. Tortilla Chips and Salsa, of course are served complimentary. The Salsa has a nice kick to it. Pictured here are two Steak Tacos and the Hay Caramba Combinacion. Both the Tortillas and diced up Steak pieces are nice and thick. Not salty. Would try the tacos next time with only onions and cilantro next time. The Cheese Enchilada that comes with the Hay Caramba Combinacion was great – melts in your mouth! Will be back more often for sure.

We were there for the first time, the music was great very good mariachi but the food was not too good. The salsa had no flavor, the mushrooms and salmon were not edible due to the heavy heavy salt. My husband had mole enchiladas and he just said mine were much better. May come back only for the music and try appetizers

Great atmosphere, service, and music. You can accept a “serenade” by two men with guitars, which is very good (please tip them at least a few bills) but you can always say “not this time” and it’s no biggie. The menu is extensive, straightforward fare, reasonably priced. What more can you ask for with dinner and drinks under $70.

What great Mexican food. Hay Caramba has a terrific outdoor patio offering great people-watching opportunities on a pleasant day at Park Ridge. I ordered the tacos de pescado, aka fish tacos, which consisted of three tacos. You had a choice of either salmon or tilapia, and I picked the tilapia. The tacos came with red cabbage, pico de gallo and chipotle sour cream. My server put the chipotle sour cream on the side, which is a perfect touch, as I usually ask for that stuff on the side. Fish was seasoned well, and the overall taco was delicious!

Great margaritas, relatively quiet, not too busy even on a Tuesday. Big open space, Gives the customer the impression of the inside a large villa or Hacienda. I decided to get a variety plate, But perhaps should have asked for something more specific. The flavor is great and the portion was fine, but I probably would have enjoyed a full sized burrito or plate full of tacos rather than a sampling of everything all at once. Still, my parents were able to get drunk and have a good time, Food was prompt, the ceviche was very fresh tasting and I loved the shredded chicken tostada. This probably isn’t much of a party restaurant, but that’s fine, I would prefer a slightly more intimate and controlled environment for this kind of meal, anyway. We actually canceled our reservations at another restaurant because this one seemed more inviting. Great 2 hours with my folks.
