“Visiting my son and he suggested this “place for tacos”. Well it was way beyond tacos. This is a jewel of a place literally hidden in south suburban Chicago. The chef is adventurous and he goes way beyond traditional Mexican fare. We had an amazing mussels in chipotle sauce, that you will want extra bread for dipping. My son had a massive salmon burrito. He said the salmon was cooked to perfection. The chefs special was a four cheese ravioli with crawfish and a delicious sauce. Again, not your typical Mexican dish but terrific.The place was sadly deserted on a Tuesday night. I hope people check it out as it deserves love.“

“The restaurant is very clean. Very nice staff, very attentive. I ordered tacos de canasta, and they were delicious. The quesadillas de maza are delicious ?. My husband ordered coctel de camarones, and it was very, very good. I will recommend ? everyone to come and try their delicious food. They have late hours. Plus, each day they have the special of the day come and check it out.“

“First timer as of yesterday . Food was really good I had the 3 meat fajita bowl (dine-in) food was cooked to order. Fresh and hot when served. The cook and cashier were polite and friendly.

Will come back to try other items on the menu and will tell everyone when in town .Small family business ready to grow it's 2024 people prices are going up stop being cheap when you order out.

“This taco truck did not miss! We both ordered tacos 2 different types and the flavor was there for both. I was delighted by the filling for the veggie tacos: beans, rice, lettuce, pico, sour cream, cheese and avocado. So delicious I really appreciated the freshness of the veggies. My co worker had steak tacos and a chicken quesadilla. I’ve never seen a more meat filled quesadilla. He said it had excellent flavor. We both are visitors at Ford and typically don’t have time to eat. Seeing the taco truck and learning of its popularity we were so happy to try it. This truck is well worth it, what you get for the price is flavor and value.“

“This is my go to spot. Some weeks I've been here multiple times. Everything I have tried has been good but my favorites are the shrimp quesataco, taco sombrero, taco Mexicano, quesabirria tacos (love their consome), and enchiladas. Nothing I've had here has been bad. Service is fast and good too.“

“As a busy northwest indiana real estate agent in the go, Rubens is our local go-to Mexican food restaurant. Food quality is high and consistent. Prices are fair and food portions are good. Our favorite is getting the nachos supreme - we get 3 orders for our family of 4 and there’s always a good amount of leftovers left. ?Parking: Lots of available parking located steps from the front door“

“Seems to be slowly going downhill. The service was always kind slow but now it's just awful. They started charging for extra chips and salsa but that kinda doesn't matter because even if you say that's OK and ask for them 3 times, they'll never bring any. The food used to be consistently outstanding now it varies between ok and pretty good. It used to take about a half hour to get your food, now its 45+ min even when they're fairly slow.“

“So mad I forgot to take pics because I was excited to see my friend and catch up. But the food was ok. The service was great. They were nice talkative and genuinely enjoyed the conversation with them. Again, I hate that I forgot pics because the decorations were so festive and authentic. It was colorful and vibrant. It was cold outside but the decor made you feel like you were on an island ? vacation. So cute ?? ?The food hmmmm...I had the 3 taco ? special/ a drink. I got shrimp tacos with cheese and sour cream. Very nice looking but too salty. I was like my goodness ? couldn't finish them because of this. But the French fries were good. My friend liked her steak tacos. 6/10Parking: There's free street parking in front of the restaurant“

“I meet a friend once a month for lunch and he recommended trying the Santa Fe restaurant. After our arrival I found the decorations in the restaurant were excellent in that it reminded me of restaurants I had eaten in while vacationing in Mexico. The menu as expected was extensive and making a choice was difficult. I ordered the Chiles Rellenos that were very good. Our meals were excellent and we decided to return some time in the future. The wait staff provided us with very good service with attention to any additional needs we may have had. I have added this location to my personal list of good restaurants. I recommend you try The Santa Fe restaurant and decide for yourself.“

“We were visiting Whiting, Indiana to do some work at a nearby oil refinery and asked one of their employees where we should go for lunch. He suggested San Luis ... and we ended up going there all week! Delicious food, very reasonable prices and friendly service.Highly recommended.“

“The ladies that work there are very nice they take your order and get you your food in a timely fashion they're always smiling and they love to see familiar faces everything on the menu is very good and I love their chicken tamales everything is delicioso and their beans and rice are off the chain“

“The Birrierias were small yet yummy! At the time of my visit they didn’t sell extra toppings like hot peppers, and avocado slices, etc. If they did this would knock their food off the chart! The restaurant is small and my server was nice.I feel they’re a small business that has the potential to really expand into a huge business!Parking: Limited parking spaces.“

“First time here, and I will definitely be going back!! Best breakfast meal I've had since I left Texas!! I ordered Mexican coke, and chilaquiles verdes and it was served with rice and beans, crema y queso blanco! Scrumptiously delicious ?! My friend ordered the Chicken Torta and limon Jarritos, he said it hit the spot! The red salsa has the perfect kick if you like spice and the green is good if you don't. Can't wait to try other menu items!“

“Excellent service and food! We stopped here for lunch and both had enchiladas, which were delicious. The salsa was flavorful and spicy and chips were also very good. We even got some to go. Our server was great. We definitely recommend Casa Lupita’s.“

“Legit one of the best tortas I had in a while, they have specials during the week so I was here on a Wednesday and got the Torta and drink for under $7bucks good deal friendly staff and my order was done fast. Small family own join so a must visit in you in town“

“I had a Cheesy order of Birrira and Chicken tacos and Flako fries. Food is delicious and flavorful. Very friendly service. Unfortunately at the moment, there is some road work in front of the business that may make parking difficult. But that shouldn't stop you from trying it!“

“I recently went to Richway Gyros after having a terrible experience at another hotdog place down the road in Chicago. So glad I found this place. The food is delicious and the customer service is awesome! Kudos to the staff. They know how to treat customers with respect! The prices are reasonable. What’s even better is that the offer a rewards program. I will definitely be back!“

“Awesome Caldo de Pollo, just what I had had in mind tonight! It was loaded with veggies and chicken that I did not mind less of the broth! It was fabulous! I wish I could have enjoyed one of their drinks cause I know how good they are!??☺️“

“I've only had the Chilaquiles verdes, Cecina, and coffee, but they are exceptionally good. I would say the Chilaquiles verdes are in the top 5 of all of Chicago. Their beans are really good. Rice is pretty good, too. Great service, very clean restrooms. They take credit cards now. My grandson has the crispy potato tacos here and loves them. The kids' chicken tenders are an enormous serving size.Kid-friendliness: They are really kind and patient with the little ones and have a kid friendly menu.Parking: Lots of free parking.“

“Vegetarian options: Menu is not vegetarian but if you for your plate to be modified they will make sure that it is. All of their food is authentic they make it, the owner is very friendly will say hi and welcome to everyone. Very welcoming!“

“One day when we were so busy in the afternoon and we were hungry, we remembered a place where they sell roast chickens and roast beef (they sell roast beef by the pound) we ordered chicken and roast beef to take away.Once at home when we started eating, this food was delicious, tasty and juicy.The Pure Tasty.“

“Great tasting food everything I tried was delicious will be there again, if you are into seafood this is the place shrimp caldo awsome, the service very attentive price point very fair, I was impressed with how clean it is, I am a new fan of this hidden jewl i. “

“Everything we got from here was absolutely delicious. Jalapeno and cream cheese bread was amazing! The flan , churros, and some other goodies were just so good. Highly recommend stopping in for some bites and drinks served there as well by Cielito Lindo Cafe.“

“Hands down this is the best place for authentic Mexican food! Would not go anywhere else! The don't hold back on delicious ingredients! They stuff your plate enormous generous servings and delicious! The people are kind service is awesome, food is awesome! Place is spotless and definitely reasonable prices! This is a must go to place!“

“Small place but we really enjoyed being able to sit in front of the kitchen. More of an option in Chicago so big thumbs up there. Steak tacos we're on point. Not dried. Hints of lime and definitely juicy but......... the chorizo tacos stood out over all. Bursting with flavor and cooked perfectly. My wife stated they made her feel like she was back in Mexico. Both tacos were a stand-out at this restaurant. Bottle sauce seemed roasted and gave a nice back to all the tacos we ordered. Highly recommend the Chorizo or Carne Asada for any dish you chose from this dive but dime in Hammond. Al Pastor, and Tripe are solid choices as well. The pork was tender and the tripe was cooked on the plancha until it had the perfect crisp.After posting this saw more reviews aside from my wifes in person but stating "reminds me of Mexico"“

“It was my first time there. It was on an accident. How many of us can say an accident turned out to be a phenomenal exoerience. I had an oportunity to enjoy a ridiculously flavorful burger. The flavors were totally tongue dancing. Im just 10 minutes away from this place cant believe i didnt know about them. Service was amazing. Kinda in the back of a small beautiful town. But please people vheck them out. Im.a super fan of a good burger. Doublely delicious. My palet is gonna be grateful for a long time.“

“Looked up reviews for a local place to get Tamales and here we go!! Little corner store with full selections and choices of authentic Mexican products and Freshly made Tamales!! Pork,Chicken,Beans, Nopales Com Queso and more varieties of other stuff!! Freshly made Mexican rice, salsa,guacamole....Yesssssssss!! Quality Fresh Meat's and Fish too....both ready made to cook seasoned types and regular cuts too!! Super deals and Niceeeeeeeee!! Tamales made by hand like Grandma Abuelita and more!!“

“Ordered tacos for breakfast. They were made fresh and still hot when I got home. Steak tacos had a good amount of meat and good flavor but I loved the chicken tacos which I never really do at taco places. Chicken was nicely seasoned and tacos had good portions of meat. Service was also friendly and welcoming. I would definitely come back“

“So I'm a big taco lover specially asada and today I tried their asada tacos and all I have to say BEST TACOS IN HAMMOND..yes I have tried them all so with certainty I can highly recommend street shack your go to for asada tacos and that salsa literally FIRE so delicious...I'll be back soon for more.“

“Breakfast dishes are pretty good, Mexican entrees could be better. Big place with lots of room to breathe. Their veggie skillet is very good. It's basically hashbrowns with chopped veggies, but it has an excellent flavor. My grandson insists on us coming here because he loves their chocolate chip mickey mouse pancakes. But he also really likes their chicken tenders. Their fries have great texture, but they taste like they were cooked in bad fry oil. My daughter likes their chilaquiles. I would say they are good, but I've had better. They overcook the bacon till its almost burned ( every time...its weird).“

“Consistently good food. One of the best queso fundido around. Give it a try with poblano. Good price points. Steak dishes are always good from a burrito to carne asada. Cantador is great if spicy is your thing. Not really a bad dish on the menu. Good selection of tequila and flavors of margaritas. It does get busy at peak times, but worth the wait. A community staple for years.“

“The food is always delicious. The people that work there are so sweet and friendly. Right now, the parking is challenging because of the road work surrounding it. Also, it's best to make sure your order is correct. Have them say it back to you because I've had my order wrong a couple of times but they nicely corrected it for me. I do feel we should support them. Their food is delicious.“

“I tried Taco Vida for the first time tonight. I thought that I would start out with the basics. I had two beef tacos. They were delicious. The place was clean. Not a long wait. The girl who served me was friendly. I can’t wait to try some of their other food.“

“Man these Tacos and Tortas are the best. Every time I am in the South suburbs I come here to grab some. They are cash only so come with cash. The guy's been working here forever. They just recently repainted and remodeled just a little bit. The food is the same from years ago when I was coming here. I'm glad they're back open“

“So the food here is well seasoned and everything you'd want but the service is very slow. I can't blame the staff because you can tell they're working hard. I would highly recommend ordering ahead of time so you don't wait. The horchata and gorditas are delicious!“

“We went on a taco tryout trip and ordered steak and veggie tacos from five different places in the Chicago Heights area. La Fonditas was picked #1 by all 4 people in my group, one of which was a vegetarian. Best taco I have had in YEARS! So good we went back later that night and tried other items in the menu. All of which were just as good. This will definitely be our go to place fir Mexican food.“

“First time visiting place. Visitor from Indiana looking for a place with good nachos. Well, I'll have to say I found it. The serving of nachos with meat was great. Piled high. No skimping on anything.Very short wait. Clean and friendly place.“

“Super delicious hole in the wall authentic Mexican food. The place is small, but clean, and the staff is so friendly and eager to make our meals meet our expectations. They always do too. I have tried the flautas, enchiladas, taco salad, tacos de lengua, agua de horchata and have enjoyed each and every one of these meals.“

“I have not been here in 5 yrs no longer in Illinois..small neighborhood store with the beat tamels & carnitas ever and I've had a lot of carnitas..they only have them on Saturday & Sunday but worth the wait..the meat & masa ratio is perfect..the carnitas definitely the bestMessage to the cook..Keep up the good work..I will be back...OH yes like everything else the price has gone up to 8.99 a lb...but my craving was satisfied after 5 years it was worth it??“

“You must check out this small Mex place. We had the Flautas dinner (which was three extra long Flautas) and opted for beans only. We love beans and always on the hunt for good ones. Also, we tried the pork tamale (very good and the masa was tasty) plus a carne asada tostada and it was loaded. The owner was wonderful and was attentive and kind. They offer a nice range of menu options that I need to come back for. Next I will be back on the weekend for the Pozole.“
