“Excellent food, drinks and service”
Omg!!. the quesabirrias are absolutely delicious the best I ever head, the micheladas are great.
It’s hard to find great Mexican food like this without paying crazy prices. Not a ton of frills just how I like it.
I went in when it was a Lil dead.But the best Tacos ever ate n mango margaritas I ever drank....FIRE🔥🔥🔥🔥 ..U DONT GO U MISSING OUT ON A GREAT MEAL.
Best pambazo I ever had. It was super good 😋.
It was my first time, there and it will be my last. The waitress was rude and had no professional matters.
Way too salty, like others have mentioned. I got pastor, chorizo, and vegetarian tacos.
I was excited to try this place out because of the reviews.

“Small place with yummy food.”
Small place with yummy food. Will be definitely be back. Edit: I went back and was even more impressed. I got some delicious horchata and my friend got a margarita, both equally huge and yummy. Their salsa is excellent!

“One of the greatest Mexican food I've encountered, I'd give it a 10/10.”
One of the greatest Mexican food I've encountered, I'd give it a 10/10. Cleanliness is always 10/10. I've never seen a dirty table. The servers are very sweet and communicate and respectful also very attentive. The Margaritas 🍹are amaze-balls too The mango ones are my favorite icy and sweet. My #1 spot. Also try their quesadillas you'll b shooketh.

“Couldn’t leave Chicago without eating real Mexican food.”
Couldn’t leave Chicago without eating real Mexican food. Tacos and the Michelada were sooo freaking good, tripe and sudadero tacos were my favorite! Birria taco wasn’t the best and was very dry, I wish they had the “Consome” that comes with the Birria tacos. Pambazo was good, not the best I’ve had but I did ate the whole thing lol. Micheladas are a MUST try! 🌮 🍺 🏙️

“Great Mexican spot here.”
Great Mexican spot here. They seem to go w step further than your average Mex taco spot. Everything is loaded up with extras. Avocado, sour cream are standard on many of the items. Generous portions. The only weak point are the hot sauces/salsas. They are extremely mild. No red sauce. Very clean, and decorated in a hip way. Nice to have this place close by.

“It was my first time, there and it will be my last.”
It was my first time, there and it will be my last. The waitress was rude and had no professional matters. I had to keep on asking for water, spoon, napkins, tostadas, ect. The pozole, was super greasy and the glass of horachata, had a bad smell. Parking was hard to find.
