Just moved into town and had a wonderful experience as our first date in our new town. Staff was super friendly and food was delicious and extremely affordable. I will be here many more times.

We've been here several times. It is now called La Fogata. I think my son orders from there at least once a week and picks it up. I love the chips and salsa. I vary between chicken quesadilla and regular beef tacos. My son loves the strawberry daiquiris now. Service is always pretty prompt. Dining room is usually steady; not always super full but not always super empty either. They've recently started being closed on Sundays.

La Fogata was a great find! The food was delicious, service was friendly and quick, and the restaurant felt very clean. The chips & salsa were super fresh, and our entrees had great flavor. If we’re ever in town again, we will definitely come back!

The name of this restaurant has changed to La Fogata. The food was the best Mexican food we've had in the area in a long time. I was ready to give up on midwestern Mexican food, but I saw the review for La Cabana and decided to give it one more chance. We're glad we did. I had the beef Chimichanga served with beans and rice and guacamole. Everything was very flavorful. The beans were nice and thick, not the soupy beans we've received in other places.. chips were warm and the guacamole was chunky. My husband had the ranchero pollo. He agreed that it was the best we've had in a long time. The staff were courteous and efficient. Service was quick. Food was excellent. We are 20 miles away. We will be back. The drive is worth it.

A friend recommended this place a short distance from my hotel. It was clean, friendly, and had an extensive menu. House made chips and salsa arrived immediately. Before I went in I hoped they had chimichangas. Once I looked at the menu, I changed my mind 4 times. I finally decided on Pollo Jalisco. The portion was large and delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant. If I go back, I will try a chimichanga unless one of the other menu items captures my attention.
Very tasty food with some healthy options. Very friendly staff to boot. Best dinner in Lewistown,IL.

I have to say this place has really really good food and would be worth the 45 minute drive from Peoria anytime. The taste of the Fajitas was fantastic, to say the least, with just the right seasonings and was not bland like most places anymore. The salsa had great taste with veggies filling the bowl. Had a Margarita on the rocks and was not too bad, my expectation after the food was so high at this point the drink was OK. They have an old-school snow cone and a freezer filled with Mexican ice cream. Check it out and you will be happy you did.

Great food and personal service. For such a small town it's nice to see such a quality place. Great hard working family business. Won't find better Mexican food. Always get a chimichanga and never disappointed. Chips and salsa are fresh and plentiful. Can't go wrong with their tacos either.
