    Cheap and Tasty Tacos, great for when you're on the way home from a long work night. Definitely would recommend!

    I wouldn't give this place a star, I was forced to. Came here Saturday night. It was dead. Bright decor was the only good thing about this place! No greeting when you walk in. There were only two workers. A lady at the register taking orders. Not friendly. They have huge menus on the wall, no prices. My fiancé ordered a steak burrito suizo, I ordered a steak burrito, our daughter had a chicken quesadilla and we had horchatas. Food was ready, the lady called us to the counter. Fiancés food came with rice and beans but he only ordered the burrito. The burritos were not "grande" they were fairly small. Burrito suizo only has cheese in the middle not melted throughly and drenched in tomato sauce? My fiancé is Mexican, we've never seen that before! He had a couple bites and bit into a rock?! He brought it up to the counter the cook came out and gave him $20, he apologized said to be careful eating the food because he thinks the rock came from the beans?! Our meal was $30.  We left and all of us had a bad stomach ache.

    WHY WOULD YOU SERVE FOOD KNOWING THAT IT WAS BAD AND WAS A HEALTH OR SAFETY HAZARD?! If that rock ended up in my child's mouth I would have raised hell in this place!!! Please people do not ever eat here.

    We frequently check out restaurants and have gone to several Mexican restaurants throughout the Chicago land area, this was place was overly priced for terrible food terrible service.

    My expectation of this place fell short leaving me an unfavorable taste in my mouth. The place appeared to be just like any other average Mexican restaurant.
    I ordered a burrito without beans, but still received them in my burrito and on my plate. They also drenched the burrito in tomato sauce, which was unexpected and disappointing. There are no refills and it was costly for the quality I received. Service was poor compared to average Mexican restaurant. You can expect the following: Pick up your own food, no free chips, and prices are not listed on the menu. The rice was meh. Some better local options would be Taco Bell, El Paraiso, or El Faro.

    Should have went to El Faro. Screwed up my order & I paid $20 for chips & guac and a chimichanga. Disappointed... wanted beef & they gave me chicken! There was only 1 other person in there when I arrived too!
    normally I wouldn't complain but having not eaten in the last 9 hours I am pretty hungry.

    Great owner and homemade Mexican food. I ordered a steak burrito, steak tacos (Asada), chicken quesadilla and chips/salsa. Price was $18 for all four items. Everything was made-to-order and warm when I got it home.
