I went here with my grandmother and we use to come all the time when I was a kid. But this was the worst place I've been to. The meat smelled as if it was bad and needless to say my grandmother's dish was cold when she was served. Terrible go someplace else.
Pico de Gallo: Some of the best salsa in the city. Great Margaritas. Solid food and service. Great outside dining. Best Mex for the price in NW Chicago.
