First of all the automated phone system they have is awful, the operator doesn’t register what you ask so you end up waiting for an actual human to answer the phone.

A couple months back all the way to 3 years ago I would have given this place the 5 stars it deserves even 10 stars but today i just found out after not eating here for a while that the original cooks and staff have left. The food was amazing here hardly any squishy fat on the steak tacos now there’s a hand full and they are less generous with the meat but will top it off with lettuce. Definitely miss the old crew that worked here. Definitely will have to look for another good taco place.

I don’t know what is happening. Gone to the Glendale Heights location for years and years. We loved it. Two times the orders have been wrong. Today we ordered 4 items and three were wrong. I could not eat mine and my daughter could not eat hers. We ran to Burger King.

Good tacos definitely! The lines can get big on Dollar Tuesdays & Thursdays, maybe Saturdays ( I’m not completely sure if it’s dollar tacos on Saturdays) but they are pretty quick either way. The only thing that took me by surprise is that they charge you for limes!!! and they still give you very thin slices so be aware of this if you like lime on your Mexican food.

Use to frequent this location tremendously when I live behind them on Cedar St. From 2005-2008 & the food was always good. Just went today 5/1/2023 & the food was way below average subpar, it really was shocking I purchased 2 fries & 1 Pastor Buritto, 1 Steak Buritto. Plus it should’ve been bogo with code & online purchase deducted at checkout/ Well it wasn’t, manager was rude and I was very disappointed coming from a establishment I frequented on a regular basis. So check your receipts upon ordering. I give this location Glendale Heights 1 ⭐️ and plan on to never return.

I’ve loved this place forever, but this time it was not so great. Burrito was only half full, so it ended up being mostly folds of tortilla

I used to love this location years ago, but in recent years the food quality has declined. It’s just not the same as it used to be. Last time I had food from this location it gave me food poisoning so I do not think I would ever again.
