Experience Roselle's Mexican food at these fantastic spots.
“The experience was very pleasant, the service was very good, very attentive, helpful, the food is delicious, the place is clean, beautiful, they have delicious quesadillas and they also had someone playing guitar music.Kid-friendliness: Family atmosphere has two spaces“
“Absolute best Mexican food ever! I have moved away and still make a point to come back here as often as possible. The only other place that comes close is in Lakeview on Addison by Wrigley Field but getting that authentic food in the burbs is not found here at El Burrito Fantastico. I just wish they had delivery for when I can’t take the time to drive there.“
“Outstanding Carne asada Great service. I had a fantastic traditional Mexican meal Very nice owner who served us. It was like home. I will absolutely be back for a karaoke Saturday I can't wait to try the house Margarita. This is the kind of place people are looking for when asking about some authentic Mexican food w a lil American vibe thrown in. I will keep coming back Maria's. Thanks for an awesome lunch“
“Always passed by this place so decided to stop in. Got seated right away. Our server was super informative and always kept the conversation going with us making us feel welcome. We got chips and salsa for a start and the salsa I recommend it had a nice kick to it. Chips were good as well We got steak tacos and baja fish tacos with the beans and rice. I'd say both meals were a 6/10, the steak wasn't too bad just different than expected. The fish was too fishy and couldn't get over it even with having the chipotle mayo on it. The beans were all stuck together with a mush so it wasn't too great. The rice was just okay. The pico on the tacos was good though. Overall inside is pretty small compared to the actual building when driving by it, nice bar area though.“
“Ok, let me say this: the chips and that salsa! That salsa should come with a straw!!The service is quick and efficient. The atmosphere has two levels, loud and louder. Birthday celebrations bring the noise to an almost unbearable level.The food is standard Mexican fare. No real standout. It’s good with large portions but not as memorable as the mood and character of the restaurant.Absolutely perfect for a party or after hours meal. Don’t bring a book, first date or a baby needing a nap and you’ll have a good experience.“
“I will absolutely be returning to this restaurant. Highly recommend it either for a date night or a fun group outing. Their drinks and margaritas were all delicious and not too sweet. The flight of Mezcal was a great experience. I love mezcal but never had tried different kinds before. The waitress was attentive and nice. The chicken poblano enchiladas were delicious, highly recommend! We also ordered the guacamole trio and ceviche appetizers which isn't pictured because we devoured them pretty quickly.“
“The whole crew is incredible and the service is top tier.There was an oversight on a special order and David identified it quickly and remedied it by delivering the rest of it to my home. This place is so so good, and highly recommend you stop by if you’re in the area.“
“3.5 stars, but rounded up. Went here for dinner and ordered the 3 tacos with the rice and beans. I ordered the el pastor, beef taco and the chicken taco. My fav was def the el pastor taco. It was delicious. Chicken taco was decent, but I wasn't too crazy about the beef taco.“
“Wow wow wow! The most delicious and juicy steak fajitas I’ve had in my life! Everything tasted fresh and homemade. I think it was hard to find this restaurant because they don’t have a website but I’m so happy we stumbled across it! The owners are very friendly and inviting and I loved the beautiful Spanish music being played by the bar. I truly felt like I was transported to Mexico! I can’t wait to come back and try everything on the menu!“
“I wish I had pictures but the food looked so delicious we just jumped right in; we weren't wrong. We recently moved from the city to Elmhurst and were looking for tacos that could live up to our neighborhood taco guys and we are glad to have found taco villa. Their al pastor is sweet and spicy, just perfection. We also tried the asada and it was good but the al pastor is the way to go. Can't wait to visit again and try some tortas!!“
“Amazing. It's probably the only place that has sanitizers around 3, paper towels, napkins. The service is great. We didn't know what exactly to order so the guy gave as one tamales for free just to try it. :) He was very kind and patient since we wasted a lot of his time with questions Very good place! Highly recommend it :)“
“I've tried this place twice now, and it's in a tiny strip mall that I've driven past for years and years. Wow do I regret not stopping sooner. My first time I had the steak taco, alambre taco and cecina taco. All three tacos were very tasty. Steak taco was a little dry, but with some lime and hot sauce it was fine. The alambre taco is where it's at, damn that taco is tasty. Tonight though I got the Fiesta Mix Fajitas. Without a doubt the best damn fajitas I've ever had. The shrimp were huge, the chicken well seasoned and the steak tender and delicious. Everything cooked to perfection and honestly the best rice and beans I think I've ever had from a restaurant. The only problem I can think of with the fajitas is it needs more tortillas. I only got 4, with the amount of food, could easily go with 8-10. You've got yourself another life long repeat customer. Also, the pico de gallo is very tasty, the red hot sauce has a very nice amount of heat as well. You've forever ruined other Mexican restaurants for me. Wish you had some birria though on the menu.“
“Authentic! Delicious tacos with great grade of meat and great seasoning. I ordered from here for delivery through Ubereats and even though I wasn't there- you can taste the freshness of the food. The torta includes beans and avocado which is the preferred way for a true Mexican sandwich. The quesabirrias are delicious and heavy on the meat and cheese (wouldn't expect any less). The rice and beans were freshly made and well cooked. Kudos to their salsas. The green is mild and the red is the hot one.However, both have great taste. I ordered their 3 leches cake. I appreciated to know who baked it and if you're debating- get it! Worth every penny.“
“This place could easily be passed by, it doesn’t look like the quality food and excellent service establishment that it is. The workers could not be nicer or more efficient, and the food, OMG the food is AMAZING! Highly recommended and cannot wait to go back. Oh yes - their tortilla chips are a must taste!Dietary restrictions: The vegan tacos!????Wheelchair accessibility: Easily accessible and they had the table set up to accommodate our guest in a wheelchair before we arrived.“
“All good cemitas arabe meat great and milanesa great bread ? I think they can do better I feel like all cemitas places use the same bread ? don't get me wrong. Is good the trompo looks great and sabe Rico Puebla cheese great .. bread ? is good but you can get better ? I will update my experience next time... Oh and more fix the door people think is close great place.“
“First time trying this tonight. Best tacos in the Western Suburbs. Everything was amazing and the service was above and beyond. They really want their customers to have a great food experience. Definitely worth stopping by for lunch or dinner.“
“What can I say other than I absolutely love this place! I have tried so many things, and everything is so good! Tried the steak with crab cake dinner off the new spring menu and it was so freaking good! My all-time favorite is the brisket crunch taco it is fire! All the drinks are absolutely delicious and all of the servers are so friendly. If you sign up on their email list, they have awesome deals, which they will email you and they usually have some thing that is on special every night… Just a great spot!“
“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Orale Mexican Bar & grill and I must say, it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm hospitality and a vibrant atmosphere that immediately transported us to Mexico.The menu offered a wide variety of authentic dishes, each bursting with flavor and made with fresh, high-quality ingredients. We started with the guacamole and chips, which were both incredibly fresh and delicious. For our main course, we tried the chicken enchiladas green sauce and mole sauce and it did not disappoint. The flavors were perfectly balanced, and every bite was a delight to the taste buds.The service was also impeccable. Our server , Joel was knowledgeable about the menu and provided excellent recommendations, making our dining experience even more enjoyable. The staff Martha and Carlos seemed genuinely passionate about sharing their love for Mexican cuisine with their customers, which added to the overall ambiance of the restaurant.The ambiance of the restaurant was lively and inviting, with colorful decor and Mexican music playing in the background. It truly felt like a little slice of Mexico right in the heart of Hanover Park, ILOverall, I highly recommend Orale Mexican Bar and grill to anyone looking for an authentic Mexican dining experience. Whether you’re a seasoned Mexican food enthusiast or trying it for the first time, you won’t be disappointed. I can’t wait to return and try more of their delicious offerings!“
“I’m not sure how long this place has been open for because I’ve never seen it before, but my experience was great. The place is small and I had to wait for seating because everyone decided they wanted tacos today too. The food was amazing. I highly recommend the birria and lengua tacos. The meat is tender and the tortillas are hand made with love. The agua frescas are refreshing and delicious. My family and I already discussed our next outing to their new location that will open in Arlington Heights. The salsa tasted good, but it could be spicier. ? 10000/10 would recommend ❤️“
“Lily's cafe is such a cute breakfast spot! The food was delicious and was out very quickly, the service was great and everything came out perfectly! It is a bit on the smaller side so I would bring no more than 4 people. But I loved eating here, a great hidden gem! We had the stuffed French Toast and it was delicious!“
“It was difficult to find a place with good flavor in the suburb and here is the right place. Everything has very good flavor and fresh ingredients. The great work and effort of everyone at Staco'N Madre shows. Thank you for filling our bellies and keeping us happy ♥️?“
“This is a very small authentic Mexican restaurant. Friendly staff. I had the chicken and steak fajita and it was AMAZING. good flavor, fresh vegetables and good portions. I really recommend this place it's not packed and right off the highway. THEY DO NOT SELL ALCOHOL HERE. but you can get a virgin piña cola. Price was very reasonable.This place is a hole. Easy to find near the highway. The chicken and steak fajita was fantastic. The employees are very friendly, fast service. If you want to eat good Mexican food this is where you get it. They are located in a corner of the square. They weren't very busy when I arrived but got busy when I was leaving. I recommend it to you.“
“The Taco Shop in Palatine is a delightful culinary hotspot that brings authentic Mexican flavors to the heart of the suburb. This cozy eatery boasts a vibrant atmosphere and a menu brimming with mouth-watering options. From the tender and flavorful carne asada to the perfectly seasoned al pastor, each taco is a masterpiece of taste and tradition, served with fresh, handmade tortillas. The salsa bar offers a range of homemade salsas, each adding a unique kick to your meal. Beyond tacos, their enchiladas, tamales, and quesadillas are equally impressive, showcasing the genuine depth of Mexican cuisine. The friendly staff, fast service, and reasonable prices make The Taco Shop a standout choice for anyone craving a delicious, authentic Mexican dining experience in Palatine. Whether you're a local or just passing through, don't miss the chance to treat your taste buds at The Taco Shop.“
“This place isn't very big, but the flavor of the food is! I normally post a picture of what I get. Unfortunately, it looked and smelled so good I couldn't wait. The ingredients were fresh and only took a few minutes to prepare. The cashier and the cook were both very friendly and you could tell they keep it clean here too. If you're in the area and have $5 to spare run in and grab a taco. Try something different and let me know how your experience was.“
“Food:I ordered 3 tacos, chorizo, steak & al pastor.So delicious.They had 4 different sauces + a mild salsa.Complimentary chips with the salsa.Service & Atmosphere:Memo (Guillermo) came over to me immediately after I sat down and made me feel right at home. I could sense his passion & joy. He genuinely cared about my experience and it’s clear he cares deeply about the food, service & atmosphere he’s cultivated.“
“Just the best Mexican food ever. I always order on Uber eats and it’s the most delicious food I’ve ever had. It’s consistently good every time! It comes fresh & authentic. The chicken tacos, birria tacos, and horchata are some of my favorites!“
“I'm new to the area and decided to venture out for lunch so I popped into Gary's Burritos today. I ordered an AL Pastor Burrito and was not disappointed. So many places get the seasoning wrong, but here, the flavor was on point, and paired with their bottled red sauce (has a decent kick to it), mannnnnnnn.... I just became a loyal customer! Will definitely be back to try something different and highly recommend.“
“Food was very good. I ended up with chilaquiles (with chicken breast) and my friend got the pupusas and dobladas. Really solid, and I appreciate the subtle differences in flavors between the Guatamalan dishes and standard Mexican fare. However, only 4/5 because ordering (in English) was difficult. I tried to get grilled skirt steak and a green chicken enchilada (as a single item, listed that way on the menu) but what was originally brought out was 3 green chicken enchiladas. I explained the issue and thought it was clear but ended up getting brought the chilaquiles. My friend got his pupusas but the dobladas was not brought and had to be ordered again. The food was delicious and I'm not a picky eater so this wasn't a huge deal, but others that need to order a specific thing, in English, may have trouble. I will be back though, and I will brush up on my Spanish.“
“The staff was very nice and I would have enjoyed eating there, but I was taking the food home for my family. Nevertheless, it was good service and as I leave this review I'm stuffing my face with their food that leaves me full and satisfied! I'll be telling others! It's kinda tucked in a corner so you won't notice it if you aren't looking. I'm glad I noticed :)“
“The asada tacos were fantastic. I ordered carnita and tripa and they were also delicious, will definitely be back when we are in the area. The restaurant is very small and has threw high tables in the back, a little challenging if you’ve got little ones but the food is great!“
“My OG go to. It's not a great place for a beer selection, so don't come here for that, but the food is good, and the staff are great, very attentive and very friendly. There are some good deals like the 20 taco tray. I love the Birilla de Borrego. Latin music is lit, and it's a very comfortable vibe.“
“My dad and I were looking to grab a quick bite to eat and we stumbled upon this hidden spot. I got the 3 taco dinner with Asada, Birria, and Pollo tacos- delicious! My dad got the chicken Burrito Suizo- he thought it was "tasty". The service was great, they made sure to get the food out fast and the staff were friendly. Dining area was small but cozy, I highly recommend!“
“Very friendly people working here. Service is fast. The food is good and authentic. The churros (dessert) are tasty. They are not a sit down restaurant it is pick up and takeout only. Affordable prices and good portions. Overall would recommend.“
“5 of 5 I got lunch in Bensenville I saw this on Instagram Chalupas and cenitas Chalupas homemade tortillas red & green salsa onions and quesi fresco delicious I also ordered the cemita especial with homemade Chipotles I miss the papalo on it Was huge. I eat 1/2, and I take the other half home I will be back soon to try the molcajete The staff and service on point Thanks, see you soon again This restaurant is located in the plaza in the corner next to the dollar tree“
“Was struggling on where to go for Dinner on a Friday nite…. Chose JCs in Bartlett which had great reviews! And really lived up to them! Momma Lucy has been there for 18yrs! And has REALLY proven her worth for Bartlett! WOW! JCs has a great atmosphere, kind, caring Staff - and Amazing Food. Momma Lucy! Thank you so much for all you do for Us hungry people!!!“
“I really liked the place. The restaurant is very cute inside and has a nice bar. We ordered a couple margaritas which were good. The all you can eat chips were amazing along with the salsa. My only complaint was my dinner was so spicy and it was just fish tacos. My other friends also complained about the same thing. One had shrimp tacos and the other shrimp enchiladas. I've been to many Mexican restaurants and don't remember those types of dishes being that spicy. All in all I would come back again as drinks and chips were very good.“
“After googling many places in our area my husband found this place to get us some Quesabirrias. And my husband and son went to order some dinner. They were on point very good the meat was tender and it was not greasy. The consume was perfect for dipping. Everything was hot. The dinner comes with three and some rice and refried beans. The tamales were very good and moist not dry.Overall the place was great and the food was excellent, we found a new taco joint to go to. I usually love to add photos. Sorry but this time the food was gone so next time I’ll post pictures of the food.“
“Used to go here when it was El Meson. We went on a Thursday night - not too crowded. The indoor dining space is renovated with a long bar, big screen TV’s for sports and nice tables. Less seating than before but great not to be on top of the table next to you anymore. Outdoor patio wasn’t being used anymore but still a great space for warmer weather. Service was excellent. Margaritas were huge and tasty. Food was very good. My husband had enchiladas and I had the fajitas. Good size portions. Chips are good salsa is meh. We would go back.“
“It's not completely authentic but it is definitely a very good place to eat. It's so good and the horchata is amazing. I ordered the burrito diner and honestly the rice was a little dry but it was good. The beans were good too. The burrito itself was very good just needs a little more flavor. The sauces were very good and I'm glad that the chip salsa wasn't spicy at all. A lot of places make it spicy for no reason. I'm supposed to enjoy the chip salsa before the main come out. This place definitely did good on the salsa. The other salsas were amazing. Flavorful and very enjoyable. The customer service was 10/10 and the waiter was definitely good. I would definitely come here again and eat here. I work nearby and I would definitely recommend everyone here because this is the best burrito parrilla Mexicana that I've been too. Renovated and amazing atmosphere. Thank you for the service.“
“This place is always my go-too for lunch. My coworkers & I would choose this spot over several other Mexican restaurants near by. Food is always fresh & they never forget to give salsa or utensils in the to-go bag like other places do.Vegetarian options: This place customizes well for vegetarian people.“
“I am so upset we didn't discover Mia's Cantina sooner! The food here is absolutely top notch. Even my picky as heck kid begs to go there (he's a fan of the steak tacos). For me, the Tacos Norteños are the winner, I've never had anything like it anywhere else. The flavor of the sauce, the fresh meat and toppings, absolutely stellar. Great beans and rice too. The service is always quick and friendly, the man who has taken care of us both times seamlessly runs the bar and waited on us as well. The restaurant is clean and large, would be great for big groups, and my husband plans to bring his work colleagues for a meal there soon! Decorations are bright and fun. We are huge fans, now we are telling everyone to check it out! 5 stars without hesitation.“
“First time stopping into this establishment i can tell you write away you will be in for a treat,owner and staff are very friendly and you can tell they care for their clients every need , the food is by far delicious and fresh! Anyone that wants REAL authentic mexican food i suggest to stop by and order!“
“I found this gem while looking for tacos near my friend. I am so glad we agreed on this spot. The service is amazing and the decor is so beautiful. I got the taco dinner plate with two steak tacos and a birria taco - the meat was really good and flavorful. I live an hour away from this place, but I’ll definitely be back if I’m in the far north suburbs again.“
“It's definitely one of the best Mexican restaurants around here. The steak is delicious. Thr tostadas are probably the best I ever had. The prices are perfect for delicious and fresh food. We recently discovered this place, and our only regret is that we haven't tried it sooner. This is now our go to local place when we want good Mexican food. The service here is great, for both to go and dining in. They are always so friendly and attentive and willing to help with any questions. I have yet to find something bad about this place other than that they are closed on Sunday and I always want food from here on Sunday's“
“Today I wanted to pamper myself, I went to eat at Sabor de mi Tierra and this is what I found: warm welcome, delicious sauce with a soup to whet your appetite, delicious quesabirrias and an incredible prepared mineral water. Super attentive with the service, the place was full, but everything flowed very efficiently. Congratulations and see you soon there! I threaten to return .“
“I never write reviews but this one was warranted. The service here was excellent and the turnaround was fast but the Carnitas were outstanding!!! My husband had a gordita de asada and it was exceptional. We'll be coming back for the Pozole on Saturday!! Highly recommended this place.“
“Whole workplace looooves this place. Cashier lady is very friendly and nice. Food is ALWAYS fresh as can be and top notch in terms of taste. Steak/Al Pastor has never not been good here. Great chef, cashier and overall fantastic little taco spot. Deserves much more recognition than they have. Food is always good and the prices are not bad either! You will enjoy!!!“
“If you're looking for an authentic Mexican takeout, this place is it! This aromatic, clean, and simple restaurant has quick and friendly service. I enjoyed a fish taco and guacamole taco that were filling and delicious in their just-big-enough dining area. It's going to be my new go-to place!“
“Naturally I was hesitant because it’s a taco joint that also does pizza lol but I was not disappointed. in a town where bougie taco places charge 4-5 dollars a taco . Tapicozza is cheap and authentic. The asada tacos had flavor , salsa is on point, Mexican coke was frosty. 10/10 would eat “
“Have ordered take out on multiple occasions. The quesadillas are my favorite; chorizo is not on the menu but it's available. I order the regular size not the lunch portion. Salsa is excellent. Edit to add GET THE FLAN. Guacamole is ok. Always consistent and delicious. Will return.“
