Los Cantaritos — Restaurant in Hyde Park Township

Had to rereview this place. Food quality has gone down. Place is very small and not well ventilated. It gets very smoky, and the smell of recycled fry oil is overwhelming. I don't know if they need a bigger or better exhaust fan for venting the cooking smoke or what. But the place can sometimes be hard to breathe in. Pozole is still decent. Today, it was salty, though. Milanesa dinner is not worth it. The Milanesa meat was paper thin and tasted very old (or maybe it sat out), it was more for like a torta, not at all dinner plate quality. Rice didn't have any flavor. Beans were decent but tasted like canned beans with chorizo added for flavor. Coffee was pretty good, it had the cinnamon in it. Agua de Jamaica tasted like a koolaid mix, and it was overly sweet. I could not detect any hibiscus flavor at all. Service was actually much better this time around. It was too bad the food was lacking. We've been feeling nauseous since we left that place, not how you wanna feel after having a meal. Not coming back here. I no longer...

They need to update their menu prices to reflect current prices not what they used to charge, i tried telling the hostess but she brushed it off. Said to look them up on yelp and their Facebook page… Guess what, I did and they still have the old menu prices on yelp and the little bit of info on Facebook has a picture of the old menu prices too. I asked for a current take out menu and she said they didn’t have any. Not complaining about the new higher prices but I would like to know how much I’m paying for something before I decide to give them...

Returned after 7 year abscence, food back then was sort of ok. CONS: CORN TORTILLAS for "CRISPY TACOS" resembled a taco shell. BEANS - orangy color like when made w/chorizo...but didn't taste like it...the flavor was different..not that good. PROS: BEEF for tacos & RICE were tasty. SALSA that's served w/chips = EXCELLENT. SERVICE =EXCELLENT (friendly & fast). Not sure if I'll return...I'm a bean addict, I can't get past their BEAN FLAVOR..it's a staple food in Mexican meals...it's not hard to make Frijoles Refritos...these just don't...
