Cervantinos Authentic Mexican Restaurant Homer Glen — Restaurant in Homer Glen

Finally an authentic Mexican restaurant in the area that has some very good food. The 3 salsas that come out are very simple smooth blends that are all excellent. Although the chips are not my favorite type they are very good for what they are meant to be. The refried beans were stellar. Smooth and savory, a big surprise. The rice was cooked perfectly and the flavor was delicious rice, not covered by sauces or spices. While the chile relleno was good I’d have liked to have seen it charred, skin removed and still with a bit of a bite(crunch?). The stars were the tacos. I had chicken and pastor. Hands down the chicken was best I’ve had. Flavorful, moist with that perfect char on outside. The pastor was also spectacular.Nice char and loads of flavor and juicy at that. It’s possible the best el pastor I’ve had.

Do yourself a favor and give the place a try. The service was very good. Nice people with smiles.

Had a second visit. Tacos again stellar. No change in quality. Had lunch special portion of skirt fajitas. Fantastic savory charred...

Extremely good food! Very welcoming atmosphere and our waitress was not only knowledgeable about the menu but actually took the time to explain the differences between the sauces to my husband and I.

She was kind enough to give us a sample and made sure that we were well taken care of. I ordered the Steak Tacos and the meat was so fresh and juicy that I didn't even need a sauce on it. My husband had the Enchiladas Suiza which is also a wonderful choice. Freshly made chips for dining in at the table served with three sauces or four if you want the habanero. Extremely good food with a warm, welcoming relaxing atmosphere. A...
