I have been there quite a few times. I have had Nochos, beef, chicken, and the supreme, beef, tacos, chicken, tacos, steak tacos, and fajitas, and all was very good but the service is slow and needs a some of work.Parking: The parking lot is pretty rough with lots of holes and hard to park

This is one of my favorite restaurants to frequent when in Springfield, Illinois. The food is constantly prepared in the same great tasting manor I've come to expect. The food is rich in flavor, can be ordered spicy or regular, and is low in sodium. The portion size is generousThe guacamole is fresh, and each year they have a cool shirt available for Cinco de Mayo.

Absolutely worth the money. Excellent quality and we loved it. The corn and flower tortillas were both fresh and excellent! Great hot sauce too.

I come here frequently. Good food, good drinks, and very nice staff. They have specials on margaritas on the weekends that are so cheap! Love coming here for some drinks. Definitely recommend trying this place ??

I do not recommend el pollo. are fries we not all the way done. the meat had hardly any flavor. also the meat on bottom of salad bowls is watery it made the bowl bottom break open. This just was a rushed half done mexican cuisine.

Nice little establishment, the food was pretty good and everything came out fast. Deserves to have more people, when me and and my family showed up we were the only ones here. It's nothing special but it's nice, simplicity works for a quick meal with family or friends.

Good menu selection, seite mares, pozole, menudo all week. Lots of options on enchiladas and burritos, steak, fajitas , chips and salsa included , beans,rice and lettuce are standard sides, traditional Mexican sodas (jaritos) and street tacos. The family is from Guatemala . I went there and the service was fast, portions were good plates and they also serve horchata and margaritas . They have loud Mexican music like they should and clean tables and facilities. Prices range from $10 to $16 dollars averaging around $12 to $13. I went an hour before close and still received friendly welcoming service and fast fresh food.
