Delicious, soon after arriving this place started getting very busy. Which is a good sign. The food is really good.Very important they do not have a system to accept credit card, there options are cash. Venmo or Zelle to the name of the restaurant.

The food was excellent. The Pambazos were delicious. The staff members were very friendly and as attentive as they could be. The restaurant was very busy and seemed short staffed, so there were some delays, but the young man working the front counter and tables did his best and apologized multiple times.Vegetarian options: My wife had a vegetable pambazo, which she loved.

Honestly one of the best family owned Mexican places in Chicago. The pastor with pineapple burrito was killer and the chamoy (chile and tamarind) peach gummies were an unexpected favorite. The special house hot sauce is fantastic. Lorena (the matriarch) was wonderful and knew exactly what I needed. People argue that Chicago’s most iconic food is its hot dog or pizza, but I would put this sort of Mexican cuisine right ahead of them. Delicious and affordable.

Pambazos are Perfection.This restaurant is cash only! Can't recommend this place enough, we went here just to try the pambazos and they were delicious beyond our expectations. We had the chorizo con papa & asada. The steak was marinated and grilled *perfectly*, but the papa con chorizo was so unique and amazing you really can't go wrong with either.The service was amazing! It's clear the owners truly care about your experience.Also the table salsas are better than ANY restaurant salsa we've had. The yellow was perfectly smoky & spicy while the green was a sweet & spicy tomatillo sauce.I can also say the Jamaica drink here is very refreshing and good.

I just happened to be in the area, and I'm so glad I stopped by. I just had the best Chile Rellenos I've ever had in my life. On top of that, the service was excellent and the authentic energy was great! I have a new favorite gem. I'll certainly be back!! Gracias!
I went with some friends to eat lunch. Everyone's recommendation was to eat the pambazo. The pambazo did not fail!

The food was really really good, I got the asada burrito and it was loaded with every ingredient you could want. The cheese on the burrito was like no other cheese, it was gooey, melty, and it tasted great. The service was wonderful, they were very nice, and understanding. Overall I highly recommend going here as it was a great place!

Food was amazing, had two different Pambazos, steak and potato/ chorizo, both were delicious the steak specifically was perfect cooked. Also had mole enchiladas and felt like it was the most authentic mole I’ve had in the states. Bonus that the chef came out and asked how our meal was and the staff was also helpful and friendly.
