Delicious, savory, satisfying traditional excellence. Props to this unassuming place for serving some of the best Mexican traditional style food I have had in all of the Chicagoland area. This is as homestyle as it gets, with warm friendly service to boot. Prices are not the same as some old photos posted up from the past- but they make up for it in quantity AND quality!!!

The traditional refried beans and rice served on the side were piping hot, tasty, and good proportions as well. My Horchata tasted creamy and sweet, not watered down or overly sugary either. Meat lovers out there, if you are in the mood for an extra big torta, try the signature Fogata Torta -which boasts egg ham AND breaded chicken- dannnng, good luck...

Read moreFirst and only visit. I stopped and checked the menu on the wall and ordered accordingly.

The cashier then forwarded me a small menu with the "new prices" and I asked her WHY they are displaying the old prices then. She told me they will be update it. Noneless, she didn't apologize for the inconvenience and expect the full price. I paid and I will never go back. Food wise, nothing out of the ordinary. Not...
