“Having been born and raised in Chicago, we have since relocated, yet we willingly drive 45 minutes to savor the carne en su jugo. During our visit, we also had the pleasure of trying the carne apache, which was delightful and showcased the skillful preparation. My son thoroughly enjoyed the asada tacos as well. This restaurant not only provides us with a taste of home but also creates a warm and inviting atmosphere that makes each visit special. We are always excited to return, knowing we will enjoy quality food that brings our family together.”

“Pretty decent taco spot in an area with lots of options for Mexican food. Ate in for a light lunch today. Had a steak and a chicken taco and added avocado to both. I preferred the steak over the chicken but both were good. Both red and green salsas were good. Service was great.”

“I picked up a gal of Carne en su Jugo. Beans were still hard. I called to complain and they wanted me to drive 55 min to show them. I’ve been going here for years. What a disappointment? I will never go to this location again.”

“Para la gente que conoce la CARNE APACHE es la que se cocina con limón, cebolla , tomate , cilantro ! Llegué y le pregunté A la mesera qué tal está su carne Apache y me dijo es muy popular, ya ve que se muere El jugo de limón, cuando me lo entregaron, me encontré con este platillo y en vez de decirme disculpe para nosotros. Esta es la carne, apache algo que para Mi no es normal, eso eran de Reyes y yo se lo dije a ella no se ofreció a cambiarnos el platillo ni nada! Y solo rio !”

“En general, todo lo demás aquí está bueno, pero el problema grande sigue siendo el menudo. Me cayo mal en menos de una hora y lo hacen demasiado grasoso con mal olor (realmente se nota que no lo limpian bien antes de cocinarlo). Ya le di varias oportunidades a esta sucursal y sigue igual pero hoy mas mal que las otras veces ni siquiera se lo pudo dar a mi mascota por que igual esta asi de mal. Llamé para ver si me lo podían cambiar o aceptar de regreso y me dijeron que no, lo cual también fue decepcionante. Fuera de eso, los demás platillos sí están buenos. Pero honestamente si el menudo en otras sucursales de Los Gallos es muy bueno prefiero manejar un poco mas porque la salud es importante y entonces alla sí le ponen más corazón y más cuidado a la comida.”
