Great authentic Mexican food and the best Margarita (not a pre-made sugar mix) and cocktails on the North side!! Ask Ardit to make you the awesome whiskey sour with pulque, and don't forget to tip!
A bit pricey but worth it- really good enchiladas, salsa, and margaritas
Carne Asada is the best!
Get the green pozole... Or Caldo de res... So so so good!
Try the Posole verde from our 100 Best list: The hearty green hominy stew rules our winters, with its hunks of pork, grassy broth and mess of add-ins alongside.
WHAT TO EAT: Pozole verde, aka “the green one”. For full review, click Read more. Read more.
La Encantada serves an elegantly executed Mexican-style ceviche, with shrimp, tomato, and avocado uniformly chopped into tiny bites and filled in with plenty of cilantro and purple bits of onion.
Terrific food! Family owned with an upscale presentation at non-upscale prices. Vegetarian friendly! Wish they still had the hongos.
El Diablito is the best drink I've ever had!
Very yummy! Everything on the menu is great! Must get the pitcher of Margaritas :-)
4.95 margaritas on Wednesdays. The tortas are amazing as well.
There enchiladas verdes are my favorite! =)
Salmon Rostizado en Salsa Chipotle Mango was amazing! Melt in your mouth salmon and deliciously sweet. Carnitas Chipotle con Mango y Platano was equally amazing and very spicy. yummy margaritas!
Ask for the vegan menu
Food was good, not great. Chicken fajitas cooked well with seasoning. Sodas were waaaay under carbonated. So basically syrup. PLUS - they don't honor their foursquare special after you check-in!
This is the best sit down Mexican restaurant on the planet. But I'm biased because I grew up on it: the chips and salsa are good and I especially like their enchiladas suizas.
I love this place on Friday and Saturdays thy have the best ceviche!
Ceviche and Carne Asada... The best
Wow. This place is great. Everything tastes slow-cooked and fresh. Best quesadillas ever. Big portions, strong drinks, nice staff, good prices. Worth a walk from Sox stadium after or before game.
Steak tacos are a-may-zing!!!
Maria's has great Mexican food at good prices. The food is more than worth the price. Plus, their drinks are very well known for good reasons.
Guacamole is market value, the lobster of this Mexican restaurant
They have delicious water!
Excellent upscale twists on Southwestern food. Delicious chicken mole, incredible huevos verdes, and great specials. Try the spicy bloody marys and unique mimosas at brunch.
get there early for brunch on the weekends, enjoy coffee on the house while you wait
FRUITY PEBBLE CRUSTED FRENCH TOAST!!!
The best Cafe Con Leche in the city!
Get a Cafe Con Leche. That was easy!
Great steak sandwich
Best Mexican food I've had in Chicago. Period.
This place is fantastic. I've only done steak tacos so far, but they are very good.
Tacos Alpastor
Carne en su jugo is a must at this place.It's awesoooome.
Food and service horrible. Avoid Pozole and steak tacos. Better options in this area.
Staff and food are amazing! Try the shrimp tacos!
Cheese enchiladas. Yummm! Tastes like chili with fritos.
Best Margaritas, best chips & salsa in the city. Love having dinner at the bar.
Have to get the queso dip
I had the enchiladas and lemonade, and it was soooo good!!
Food is well seasoned..
Best lemonades in town.
This place is amazing! The actual authentic chips and salsa is a great start. Both the chimichanga and fajitas are great choices, but The service really sets it apart. They treat everyone like family
Love the Palomas here. They are always playing authentic mariachi music!
My new favorite spot for Margaritas and the Mole.
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
