The place is old, and the building could be updated and / or renovated. The interior is outdated and flat, with dull colors and lighting is harsh. The staff can be a bit lazy and a bit irritated to even have to be there or help a customer. However, food wise and flavors, it's one of the best Mexican restaurants, in my opinion. I live like 40mins away from them, and I still make sure to get it every couple of weeks. Their other location in naperville However is the completely different in the staff and store are better.

If you're new to downers grove or just want a place to eat, this should be your first choice. I go here around 2-4...
Read moreAfter going here for years with great service. Today decided I will not return. After a long day with job an meeting up with my guy at grocery store. We decided to stop at 1 of of favorite spots since we moved an don't get as often. Was excited as I ordered my steak nachos an a couple extra things. Was way to tired to cook and this in past was comfort food to us. Get home lugging up grocery an making sure my nachos were safe. Sit at table after putting stuff away quickly to eat. Open to find NO STEAK!! We don't live in area so was not like I could run back! Called them to make them aware because didn't want someone else to go through if having same day. Was a language barrier an she didn't understand so was mute I guess. Not sure what happened to our favorite place but disappointed an not...
