Old School Mexican Restaurant, Flavors that I haven't tasted in 20 years!! (In a Mexican Restaurant)
I loved the chips and Spicy salsa they brought to the table after we placed our orders..
I like the mild stuff, but the flavor of Hot sauce reminded me like the flavor intensity found at places like Pinstripes.(Arboretum of South Barrington) I was so surprised to find hidden Gem in Crystal Lake. The memory has me wanting to come back for seconds.
I have been to countless Mexican Restaurant and have not found one that reminds me of my Child hood like this one has.
I would recommend this place to anyone and will come back with friends next time..
Went for the first time tonight based on a few recommendations. I wasn't sure what I wanted, the expansive menu was impressive. Simply asked if they have Al Pastor and went with burrito plate suizo style. Chips were served with pico de gallo, some green tomatillo sauce and ceviche. Rounded it out with a El Modelo to wash it all down. It was a epic dinner. I am stuffed and took half my meal home. Will certainly be back!

Food was absolutely delicious. Wait staff were very personable. We had at least 10 people in our party, everyone loved their dish. I had the seafood in a pineapple, fresh seafood, was wonderful very reasonably priced. 5 star rating for us.
My wife and I just had dinner there. Why have a taco or a burrito or a tostada when you get an actual decent traditional Mexican food!
Just go there and order the Pollo Asado.....
You're welcome.
Shrimp Ceviche, Shrimp Empanadas, Cazuelitas and grilled meats to die for are my favorites so far.
Omg selos recomiendo está tremendamente delicioso � ����� vivimos a 2:15 horas para venir a comer esta delicias de comida
The food was heavenly deliciousness! Service was outstanding! Pricey, but so worth it!!
One of the best experiences in a Mexican restaurant. Has authentic recipes with big variety of meats and seafood. The bar brings a great ambiance with nice decorations and the menu full of interesting drinks compliments that. There are a lot of stuff to try that will keep you coming until you find your favorite and then you will return for that. Carlos was our server and he was the best.
I’m so glad I asked our server if he recommended the langostino! They were some of the best I’ve had, not too salty but all the seasonings were perfect. My sister loved her mojarra, it had the perfect crunch. My mom loved the fish ceviche. But do yourself a favor and go with the langostinos, I’m still dreaming of them 😊
We've been here twice now and the food has been good both times. A generous amount for the price and a wide selection of items to choose from. One night even had live entertainment.
My only suggestion would be to have more wait staff. Both nights were busy and it took 10-15 minutes before a server stopped by the table after we were initially seated. On the 2nd visit, even the manager was waiting tables. The staff was very friendly and brought us everything we asked for (more chips, water/drinks, etc). For the amount of customers there on the busier nights, having another server or two would enhance the experience for everyone.
The server was good, and she gave us some money off of the bill because we got Tomatoes after we said that we did not want tomatoes. I think that maybe they need to be more detail oriented, and maybe with more staff that would also help.
I dropped in to try the lunch specials. It was really good and affordable $10.99 including a soft drink. The service was friendly and the meal delicious.
