The young lady with dark hair who serves and bartends deserves a raise! She is amazing working the bar and serving during the day while still giving great service. She makes the best margaritas in the entire place. I will continue to come back always because of the food but for sure during the week when she’s here for the amazing drinks and service.

This is the best Mexican food in the area of lake and Mchenry county border. The food was tasty and great portion sizes. I really love their tortilla chips and I’d buy them on their own. Great place!

First time here. I ordered the steak chimichanga. The meat was excellent. There was not one piece of fat in the whole thing. Reasonably priced with good size portions. Very impressed and will definitely visit again

Love the food here… I need to remember to take pics!! You get a basket of homemade chips and fresh salsa when you sit down. It was pretty busy, considering it was Mother’s Day, we didn’t expect that, but not surprising. My Dad loves beef tongue (yuk) and got a wrap, Mom was in the mood for an enchilada! They give you tons of food, so if you’re like us, you’ll be going home with leftovers!

Great customer service and prices. The atmosphere was warm and inviting. Our food tasted great. My only issue was that the steak tacos were very bland. Could use some seasoning on the steak. Other than that they were great.

Nice looking place but lacks flavor/seasoning on the food. Beans were kinda raw,rice was bland ,steak cooked well no flavor, salsas were good. Otherwise it would be a great. Will give it a nother chance later.

This place had a great atmosphere and everyone was very friendly as well. The waitstaff was very helpful and nice! I had a burrito and it was very good. I would recommend this place and I’m sure I’ll be back here at another point as well. Give it a try!

I used to live in Antioch about 9 years ago, and this place was our favorite place for Mexican food. The food here is absolutely delicious. Traditional Mexican food at it’s best. It is so good that my wife and I drove 2 hours each way to get there just for dinner. Wish I could get there more often, but I would recommend this place to anyone in that area, or looking for somewhere new. It’s worth the drive.

We went out to celebrate a birthday. The outside seating is nice. All of the staff had masks on and all tables and chairs are disinfected after people leave. They are doing all the things to keep people safe. The food was fresh and delicious. Our server was polite and attentive. It was nice to have a safe meal outside of the house.

Ample seating, nice staff, clean, nice atmosphere. The best chips and salsa. I had shrimp fajitas. BORING!! NO FLAVOR. You need to add flavor to the dish.
