Absolutely Fire food. I knew just by walking in this place was gonna be good.

I've been ordering from here for five years and counting. This is the absolute best place in the city to get shrimp ceviche! Bar none. Get the large or medium to-go (I actually like to take this away more than getting it in the restaurant, ...

Amazing food & great service. Had no idea they had Karaoke also. I would definitely come again!!

Great food, I had beef tostada, horchata, and strawberry frozen margarita. Excellent quality both food and service! Thanks.

I got the chimichanga dinner, and it's the only burrito I can recall ordering that featured dark meat. That and its marinade made for a really good meal.

I love this spot for tacos and Mexican beer. Reasonably priced. Nice outdoors seating. Amazing salsa that comes with the free chips to start. An affordable dinner out. If you pay cash, you’ll save a small percentage on your total bill.

Awesome place! Locally owned , two outdoor patios (one in front and one in the back), great food and drinks. Perfect . Our waitress, Ivonne, was one of the most genuinely friendly waitresses we’ve ever had. We had taco dinners- cooked well, fresh ingredients. Cocktails served, as well. I had a margarita and it was delicious Our main reason for coming was so we could enjoy a good meal outdoors in this neighborhood and be outside with our dog! This place was amazing and we’ll definitely be back. Our dog had a great time, too! Would love to see more locally owned places with a patio in Albany Park. P.S It is not cash only! Our card was accepted!
