El Pueblito Mexican Grill

“Very large menu with a huge selection.”

Very large menu with a huge selection. I have to say their prices are completely reasonable. They were very accommodating. We showed up unannounced with a group of 12 and they moved a bunch of tables so we could have one giant table. Since we all wanted different stuff, it was easy enough to go order at the counter but they offered to wait on us if we preferred. I had the Huarache with al pastor which was excellent. My wife had chicken tostadas which were also nice and very light. Other dishes are group tried. Were the chorizo breakfast burrito which looked massive and also the Chiles rellenos looked very nice. Amongst the total of us we must have tried half the menu. The only one in our group that complained was somebody who got chicken fajitas and he felt that the price was a little high for his dish. But our dishes were totally reasonably priced. The chicken tostada dinner, including two tostadas beans and rice was only $11.50. Huarache are $5.99 each and they're pretty loaded. Everything I tried was absolutely delicious. Plenty of parking in their lot out front will definitely be back again soon.

“Carne Asada Fries.”

Carne Asada Fries. You’ll wonder how you got so far in life without having experienced these! So so good! We usually order takeout (which is always good) but the Carne Asada Fries are best experienced eating in.

“Freshly prepared, hot, delicious food, with big portions.”

Freshly prepared, hot, delicious food, with big portions. Customer service was courteous, helpful, and attentive. Prices are decent and affordable. My chicken torta was delicious, perfectly seasoned chicken, with fresh toasted bread, as well as fresh and tasty rice and beans. The last time I went here the food was outstanding too, and that was more than two years ago. My sister ordered steak tacos and they were just as delicious if not more than my meal!

“Since this review they have done an amazing job ensuring errors like this don't happen anymore.”

Since this review they have done an amazing job ensuring errors like this don't happen anymore. They are now the most reliable restaurant and we love their food I ordered steak tacos with no cilantro, add avocado. The girl verified "so only onion and avocado." This is what I got. This would be slightly annoying the first time, but we literally had to stop ordering delivery because they kept messing it up. There are way too many taquerias in Chicago to keep putting up with this level of incompetence.

“I mean, you can’t even leave out the lot before taking a bite of their tacos.”

I mean, you can’t even leave out the lot before taking a bite of their tacos. Meat is well seasoned, tortillas nice and soft. The cilantro, onions, cheese, and sour cream are always fresh! Best Mexican food in the area! I highly recommend!

“My default late night Mexican food stop in Evanston.”

My default late night Mexican food stop in Evanston. Free chips and salsa on the house whenever you dine in. Their tacos and burritos are great, but my favorite here are gorditas, asada and chicharon. They are superb. The food is reasonably priced and taste amazing.

“One word to own up to this place is simply amazing.”

One word to own up to this place is simply amazing! Everything is cooked to order and comes out piping hot and fresh. Table service is always on point when dining in and takeout is given the same care by the employees as if they were cooking for you as if you were guests in there home. They offer a very wide variety of authentic Mexican dishes. Whatever you get off the menu your sure to be happy!

“Very good Mexican food in a clean and well ventilated restaurant.”

Very good Mexican food in a clean and well ventilated restaurant. It has a parking lot which makes this place a good choice for a quick place to eat. The food is prepared very quickly whether you eat inside or take the food to go.
