“I learned of this place from my niece and my sister. First of all the customer service was excellent. The food was DELICIOUS AND EVERYTHING I EXPECTED! Nice portions, fresh and clean. I had the spicy chorizo and steak taco combo with rice & beans. Although I'm not a rice eater, the rice is everything! The whole meal was well seasoned and freshly prepared. I enjoyed my experience, and I WILL BE BACK ? Thank you all! Job well done ??????“
“Absolutely delighted to have discovered this local gem! My family and I had such a wonderful dining experience. The food was incredibly flavorful, and we enjoyed every bite. I highly recommend giving it a try, as it truly exceeded our expectations. Looking forward to returning soon!“
“So delicious! Been wanting to check this place out and so glad I did. We got takeout, 3 Chorizo tacos, 3 Chicken tacos, fries, and a side of cilantro potatoes. All of it was very flavorful. The service was quick and the staff were incredibly friendly. The interior has a good amount of seating for its size, overall a very cozy but lively vibe. Highly recommend this spot!“
“Mexico City is so successful they have practically outgrown their location...trying to find a parking spot usually involves venturing into the neighborhood behind it and parking on the side streets. Normally I'd hate doing this but for the steak fajitas it's absolutely worth it and I will continue to throw money at them. Absolutely terrific restaurant,they definitely have something special going on.“
“Today was my first time stopping in! I’m so glad I did! The food is amazing, not too salty like a lot of Mexican restaurants but very flavorful. The portions are great as well! I got the beef taco to eat in & it filled me up & got the chicken quesadilla for carry out! Amazing!Jerry & Wanda are super sweet & amazing hosts, if you haven’t stopped in yet I suggest you do for dine in or carryout. #supportsmallbusinesses“
“This place is amazing and must go to, great atmosphere and the staff is beyond amazing and the food is even better. go to location don’t order off Uber driver messed up order called location and I believe it was the owner that got on the phone and said if you come up I’ll take care of you and he did fresh tacos and omg he gave me a piece of cake and literally all I can say is omg it was so freggin goodThank you will be back again and me and wife fought over cake“
“Holy smokes this place is good. Food came out hot and fresh. Very well seasoned. Prices were typical and the portions were good. The service was friendly and helpful. The dining area was clean and chill. I would for sure be back. The burrito I also got was a two hand burrito!“
“I'm mad at myself for waiting so long to try them out. The service was excellent, friendly staff. I love how they showed me the contents before handing to me. I appreciate Vegan sour cream and cheese choice (dairy isn't my friend). The chips were perfect, held up to all the toppings and weren't overly salty. Since it's a food truck, the ambiance is wherever you go lol. I enjoyed my food and will definitely be back.“
“Everything is always on point they never missVegetarian options: Rice and beans. Salad Is pretty good Any type of taco just say no meatParking: They have a parking lotKid-friendliness: The kids are welcomeWheelchair accessibility: Just roll on in“
“Birria Sandwich, so, so good!! House Margarita, also. Can't wait to go back for more! Service was good, and they've done a nice job with the decor! Parking was easy, booths are nice and comfortable. What more could you want? It was our first time there, for dinner on a Monday evening.“
“Pretty happy with our first visit overall !! Employees were attentive, restaurant was clen , food was on point, the queso blanco was simple but quite good and the chips and table salsa were both good . Had a hiccup with both our orders , but just a plating issue that was tolerable . They just wasted a few tomatoes on us ...... “
“Man I must say when it comes to this place , Always fresh, The Burritos are & a delicious Rice bowl is a must try & you belly will thank you later & It's worth every bit for your money.. Seaviche is a good spot for a quick lunch Date“
“Had lunch here with a friend who has never been to Pancho Villa before. We were seated promptly and greeted by our server who did a phenomenal job taking care of us. Ordered the shredded Beef Flauta Dinner and my friend ordered the Chicken Chimichanga Dinner. Had so much food that we had to get a carry out. Food was delicious, service was great and will definitely go back to try the Flaming Fajitas.“
“Great Mexican food in a cozy little unassuming spot! If you're looking for something off the beaten path and often overlooked by others looking for a flashy frontage this is the place for you! The staff is super kind and service is great. Food is delicious. Love the Verde sauce on the enchiladas. Best I've ever had!“
“A very small restaurant, the quintessential hole-in-the-wall that you could easily pass based on the exterior. However, if you're seeking authentic el Salvadorian or Mexican dishes, I'd recommend that you DO NOT pass on this place. This was my first time here / everything ordered was delicious. We came around 1:00 and the small wait was worth it. Tasted like you were eating at someone's house. Authentic fresh & soo soo delicious. Plantains were on point & the tacos were my favorite.“
“Have lived in Oak Park for a year and finally tried the place everyone talks about! Delicious, great portions, homemade, lucky to have this in the neighborhood! Their refried beans are vegetarian which is perfect and hard to find. Will be back!“
“Nice atmosphere and good food. They add a mandatory 20% gratuity on every bill over $100, which in this case was okay because our waitress was great. However, this isn't a business practice I fully agree with. What if the service was bad?“
“The place is an absolute vibe! Me and a group of friends stopped by for a margarita and some tacos. They were doing karaoke and a amateur DJ was playing music which was a lot of fun and unexpected on a Thursday.4/5 for food. Got the Tortuga since it’s the name of the place… it wasn’t amazing. The tacos are way better!5/5 for atmosphere!Menu picture included“
“Im not from this area, was here for work and a work friend suggested it. It's a really small place. Very nice people. The pierogi were good. I felt the potato pancakes were not really for me, but they were ok. That's all I tried. My friend likes the burrito. It was pretty big.“
“This is a must stop spot, great atmosphere, Staff friendly and professional, Food is fast and delicious as well as the prices you can’t beat the price of a good Taco, Nacho or Cuban Sandwich and if that’s not what your in the mood for you could always try one of there signature pizzas…The Spicey Mexican is one of my all time favorites…“
“Staff was very friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable. The space clean and organized, and the service was efficient. I ate there and ordered food to go. I had the birria tacos there, a 2 quesadillas for my coworkers and some wings. Wings weren't my favorite but i'll go back and try more from the menu.“
“I felt so at home as soon as i entered the establishment. The workers Lilliana, Natalie and Paulina, all welcomed me in and helped me with my order. The food here is absolutely delicious! I got the steak quesadillas and they were cooked to perfection. The atmosphere and music was so authentic i felt like i was in mexico! I also got a Sidral (apple soda) and it quenched my thirst so i could continue my delicious meal. 10/10 i would recommend and DEFINITELY come back more often!Wheelchair accessibility: They have handicap parking with a slanted entrance so wheelchairs can easily be pushed into the building.“
“I had been driving by this place for weeks and finally decided to try it. The prices were about $2 higher than listed on Google but I'm so glad I went. I got the big burrito with shredded beef and some kind of soup which I thought was menudo. I was very disappointed that it was not menudo but it was very very good nonetheless. I had the burrito with some Verde sauce and a few squeezes of lime and was very impressed. It was savory and delicious. The best $14.99 I've spent in a long time. The cucumber slices as a pallet cleanser was a nice touch as well.“
“Food served hot and tasty! Cocktails prepared and served nicely! I think I ordered the Prickly Pear Margherita and loved it. Each of the four of us ordered a different entree, and we were all very satisfied. Flavorful enchiladas, burritos, and tostadas were" oh so good!" Now we return weekly. Good value on the food! Nice hostess and friendly staff make us feel welcomed.“
“First time in this cozy little place. Booth seating to one side and a bar on the other. It's got a cool eclectic vibe, very clean. We were promptly sat and a server was there with menus and water and took our drink order. The menu is small but covers all the bases nicely. The chips arrived hot and the salsa made in house while we waited for our food which wasn't long. Nothing pretentious going on here just solid well prepared and fresh. Portions were generous and the prices fair. We've found another little gem! I would have given 4.5 stars simply for the fact that the dusty musty 70s one hit wonder ambient music included the theme from Greatest American Hero. A lot of you will be too young to remember lol.“
“I have no pictures because we ate it all! We originally stopped to get my 3 year old something to eat but thought to sample it first lol it was amazing! Please do yourself a favor and come to them for FRESH and seasoned to perfection food. I loved how light the food was after you eat it doesn't leave you sleepy.“
“Came in for the first time for lunch today. The space is great, lots of TVs and bar space (it'll be a great place to watch football this fall). The food was fantastic, huge portions and reasonable prices. Service was great too, got seated quick and it can't of taken more than 10 mins for the food to come out. I'll definitely be back!“
“Let me explain, the man there took on 3 different responsibilities and executed them perfectly without error! He was absolutely amazing! The food was good, seasoned well. The consume was the best I’ve had in a long time.But the star of the show was hands down the gentleman taking on the role of 3 different people. Absolutely amazing!“
“Seemed like another chain places initially however the host was very kind and the whole staff seemed regional. They had a good stock of local drinks. I had the birria tacos and damn it was great! Looked great! Meat was seasoned and tender. Everything tasted rich and flavorful.“
“We used Regina’s food truck for our wedding and it was perfect! The booking process was easy and fast. They were very easy to communicate with. The food was delicious and had plenty of options for everyone including gluten free, vegetarian, and vegan. Highly recommend for your next event!“
“À friend brought me here Wednesday and I'm back on Friday. I'm picky about my Mexican, meaning I like Mexican aka Mexican town Mexican, taquerias, eating in actual Mexico.The pastor torta is fantastic, good chips and salsa,The meat is actually marinated and flavorful, not some dried out texmex meat with spices sprinkled on.“
“Best Mexican food in Metro Detroit, without a doubt. I live half an hour away now, much closer to Mexican Town, yet I still make the drive to La Botana because it's the best. Been coming here for 10 years and it's very close to my heart ?“
“Always love the food at Miguels. They are probably one of, if not 'the', best Mexican restaurants in my area. Kids love it, and I do too. And staff is always friendly and accomodating!Just called to place a carry out order at 8:40pm, and was told they were closed. Please adjust your restaurant hours to when you stop seating, or taking orders. Not when everyone is planning on leaving. Thanks.“
“Wonderful experience! The homemade chips were outstanding. The dips and entrée items were fresh and well portioned. Very glad I followed up and visited after seeing an Instagram post. I will most definitely tell friends and be a returning customer ?“
“Came by here after checking out an event at the bookstore next door. I ordered the birria tacos where were good and well priced! My friends all tried different items on the menu including the regular tacos, quesadillas, and quesabirria. The food is definitely heavier so not a regular spot for me, but great late night spot with lots of seating and a large menu. Service was also great and the waitress was very friendly!“
“Good food and great service. There are so many meat options that I totally forgot what I had and be prepared to be stuffed. The market table offers good side dish options and it's hard to not over eat Ambiance is great for date night or celebration. If you are not a big fan of meat, I won't suggest this place. Due to the amount of food and meat, I will not say this is your everyday eat out restaurant. Otherwise, I highly recommend. Disclaimer, I had only eaten dinner there and not yet try their lunch option.“
“While in Detroit I found this excellent Mexican restaurant. The service, the decor, the music and the food were all top tier. The chilaquiles with a couple fried eggs and beans with a little cotija cheese were screaming! Very authentic like mom use to make lol. The chicharrones were absolutely fire. Crunchy not greasy and the peanut sauce that comes with it is great for dipping. Love this place. Muchas gracias!“
“The food was great! The place is just beautiful! The service was fast and considerate and the owner was visiting every table to make sure we were taken care of! I had the botana and my fiend had the wet burrito. So, so good. Had the tacos last time and they were perfect!“
“This place was great. Reserved this restaurant for moms 71st bday, as she loves Mexican food. Staff was super accommodating with our fairly large group. Manager Demetry initially handled resv's, before handing off to Dawn and Shannon. They were all very good. Food was great...atmosphere was eventually cool. Nice place “
“3/13/24 22:15 estGot a fiesta pack. Service was fast and courteous. Everything was perfect, including the packaging of my meal.All tacos and burritos are uniform, centered, and neatly placed. ALL, the napkins are to one side and sauce arranged beautifully above the napkins.Every person there, at this time, deserves a raise.To ownership/management:Seriously keeps these MFKZ!! AND PAY EM WELL! Or scramble to find better.“
“Good just a little pricier than I'm used to. Definitely used to more lunch meals that are not 15$+ and was weirded out with the white stuff served with chips?? Was it ranch?? Lol idk just threw me off a little.Anyways pretty big portion sizes, Ash our waitress was pleasant, and no other complaints.“
“Overall good experience and we will return! Food was great other than the Mexican rice which tasted like wet cardboard/freezer. Golden Margarita flight was great! We were seated right away and our waitress was very attentive even though they were very busy on a Saturday at dinner time.“
“Was really nervous about trying this place based on google reviews but I’m so glad that I did! Excellent food!! I ordered shrimp tacos and I really was expecting average but they blew me away!! Loaded, flavorful shrimp!! I was highly impressed!! The food was amazing and I’ll definitely return! The customer service was excellent as well. 10/10!“
“Cilantro heads up: if you are allergic to cilantro or have the gene that makes it taste like soap, your options are limited. That said, they did work with me and made sure I enjoyed a cilantro free experience.Their chips are SO GOOD. I didn't even need the salsa.The beef was well seasoned.Prices are reasonable.Everyone was so nice!“
“Stopped and placed a carry out and they had a restaurant full of guests (2 were parties in the banquet area). Went to the store and came back and food was ready and the staff were exceptional and my dinty moore and the lemon rice soup were excellent! Anyone complaining about prices hasn’t been grocery shopping in a while and if you don’t want to pay for it and leave a tip then cook it yourself and see how much it will cost to get everything you need for everyone or it will probably cost same or even more for the initial ingredients.Vegetarian options: Veggie pitas and omeletsDietary restrictions: Senior menu dinner specials. Custom orders excepted (within reason).Parking: Park by the door and handicap parking availableKid-friendliness: Kid menu and family friendlyWheelchair accessibility: Yea“
“The servers at the coffee counter were cool and helpful and friendly and funny. The servers at the chicken tender counter were apathetic, seemed bored, had skipped over our order when we went back to see what was taking so long, and didn't say a single word to us when we asked about the order. She just walked over to the ticket pile and found the order then handed it to the cook. We had no interaction with them besides placing the order so there was nothing personal happening. It just seemed like both of them wanted to be literally anywhere else but there.It was my first time at the LCA and it's not a good look tbh. This was the night of 01/06/24“
“They always make the food great and it's consistently made with not just a tortilla, like Taco Bell, where you get a quesadilla and barely any chicken or cheese are only in the center and sides have nothing in them.Vegetarian options: They no longer have Beyond Meat but their beans are fire.“
“This was the best Mexican restaurant I've ever been too! I ordered the Verde Enchiladas and they were amazing. The chicken inside was very fresh. The rice was fresh and fluffy. I also ordered a Margarita...yum! The service was outstanding! Our waiter was very attentive. Go here, you will be glad you did!“
“By far one of my favorite spots to grab a bite to eat. Authentic Mexican food and the service is great! The prices are fairly competitive, although I'm noticing the rise everywhere. Make sure you stop in for a Torta (Mexican Sandwich)! They're delicious! ?“
