I went for some tamales, they were really good, I also had some sopes, I was really pleased with the flavor of my sopes, they were delicious. I had take out, and the wait for my food was not long it all. The cashier was very nice, she even let me had a taste of their champurrado. I will be back. I recommend this place.

2/18/2024 I loved it here my first time. So I returned today for the same meal & they had horrible service and communication. I ordered to go and the meal (chicken chipotle) was completely incorrect and not accurate. It was missing the rice and ham and they gave it to me with the incorrect cheese as well. The person over the phone mentioned they ran out of the ingredients (which was never communicated when I placed the order) and stated I can get a return of my purchase on my card. & when I called back to get her name, another woman answered and said they don't do electronic returns. Not a professional establishment at all.

I love the pork tameles. The steak taco dinner with beans and rice seasoned to perfection. The teller at my Wintrust bank recommended and she was on point.

We were group of 4, 3 of us ordered chilaquiles and they were room temperature, not even warm/hot. Overall the food was not the greatest but were good for a quick meal. I will come back and try something else.

I got a carry out order and it was delicious. I went in to order and the server let me taste the salsa verde they use on the chicken enchiladas to help me decide if that's what I wanted. It was so smooth and flavorful. The enchiladas were tasty and the beans and rice were better than most. Good guacamole with warm tortilla chips. I got a couple of tamales to boot and I was very happy. Wait time was short. I will definitely go back.
I would genuinely rate this place a 0 if possible. No one sat us upon entering, instead they yelled from the other side of the restaurant to ask if it was for pickup. I had to change my drink order 3 times since they didn’t have any of the drink selections besides sodas. My husbands tortillas came once he had already finished his meal. Food was not great and cold. I ordered the chilaquiles rojos with carne and I recieved them with taco meat sprinkled on top. Please do not waste your time here.

This place is trash do not waste your time coming here. They don’t have half of the items that are on the menu. Service is bad. Tortillas came once I was done with my plate.
