South Of The Border Restaurant & Bar — straightforward american in Rogers Park. Plating that reflects real attention to detail. Lazo Jhodel: "The steak was perfectly grilled, juicy, and the chimichurri added that zesty kick" [$, patio]

☀️Patio — a Rogers Park classic in summer.

Always have a great time here! The service is great. Would recommend the margaritas (both large and strong), especially when they have the Thursday special!

"Stumbled upon this place by accident and so glad I did! Loved the tuna tacos and shrimp gambas al ajillo—the garlic was absolutely on point. The server was kind and recommended the Cadillac margarita, which hit the spot. What a great find!"

My friends and I come here regularly. If you’re just coming to eat, it’s going to be a very cheap night with excellent food and service. But once their killer margaritas start flowing, the night can go on and on. They have any flavor marg you can think of and they’re always happy to help you choose if you’re overwhelmed. Also, surprisingly, pretty good buffalo wings. Unsurprisingly, good dessert options as well. Will be coming back often!

Overall a good experience. It might’ve been our fault for coming in so early so will revise review on next visit but took a while to get food and drinks. The food however more than made up for it and the friendliness from the staff was nice.
