Small, family run Mexican with good food. Menu is not extensive but what they have is done well. I had sopes, which most Mexican restaurants don’t offer, and they were delicious with generous toppings.

Small businesses like El Forastero are what makes this city great. Great food at a decent price, with comfortable dine-in or outside seating. I’ve had the taco and burrito dinners, everything fresh and delicious. You’ll be happy you came for real Mexican cuisine, not whatever that mess they pass off at certain chain restaurants that claim to be Mexican food. El Forastero is the real deal!

New Years Day means new opportunities, and I took a chance on El Forastero. My review was based on take-out. The hostess is very friendly and gets top marks for customer service. The taco dinner and a coke cost around $17 which is pricey in this poor hero’s opinion but the quality of food is really good. If you stay to dine-in, the dining room looks small but does have a decent amount of tables and booths and the kitchen is right next to you meaning the aroma of delicious food fills the air.

I’ve only had the Chilaquiles verdes, Cecina, and coffee, but they are exceptionally good. I would say the Chilaquiles verdes are in the top 5 of all of Chicago. Their beans are really good. Rice is pretty good, too. Great service, very clean restrooms. They take credit cards now. My grandson has the crispy potato tacos here and loves them. The kids’ chicken tenders are an enormous serving size.

The service and food from here is always excellent! The hostess is very friendly and always has a smile on her face. While the food is a bit pricey, it is worth it. Have been coming here since they opened up. Best Mexican restaurant in Hegewisch.
