I bought a torta from here once when i wanted to try it out and there wasnt much taste to it and very few ingredients, and then the price was way too high for me, i dont recommend this restaurant, but if you have a good experience, thats cool too

These tacos are so well stuffed that you can make 2 tacos out of one. Highly recommended this restaurant. Remember folks to have the shell lighty greased to hold the taco together so they dont split at bottom. Happy eating everyone 😁

I always get takeout, a steak taco dinner with rice. Its 3 small tacos, but nicely seasoned in my opinion, and only $8.45. They are quick and its good, only thing is some days someone there doesnt speak English in case you dont speak Spanish. Men like to hang out in here for some reason. Beer maybe...

I come here when Im in Waukegan and the food isnt bad. It is a little bit unclean on the inside but other than that, the food is good. I like coming here.This town has some great soul and culture. Love it, will definitely come back to this spot when I am back in town

Got an agua de jamiaca and was extremely disappointed. The water had no flavor or sugar tasted diluted. I had better hopes for the food, but when I got my torta it had a piece of hair in it. Won’t ever return again extremely disgusting. One of the waitresses wasn’t wearing a mask and none of the customers either. Stay away and go somewhere else you can find cleaner and better food down the street there’s too many Mexican places to chose this one.

RACISM LIVES HERE! The chip on my card doesn’t work. I know with the system I use at my job, sometimes you still have to insert the chip a number of times before your able to swipe. I’m used to waiting for food, patience. But every time with this same waitress, the waits are twice as long, even for water. The waitress didn’t know how to work her own equipment. I am a young black male. She was very rude, repeatedly saying “no, no. U need to pay.” Acting like I’m trying to skip a check of $20?!?! Come on now... Obviously I’m trying! IVE BEEN HERE BEFORE, WITH THE SAME CARD. She snatched the machine out of my hands, cursing in Spanish.
