Los Girasoles Restaurant — Restaurant in West Chicago

Defenetly a restaurant I won't be going back to! This restaurant has menus WITHOUT PRICES. I asked if they had a menu where we could see the prices and the response FROM THE OWNER was: everything is increasing we can't have prices on our menus, this was his EXCUSE for not having the prices for customers to see before ordering. Among the entire order, we had chorizo pampazo, carne asada torta, carne asada burrito and kids enchilada plate and asked to have carne asada in the filling of the enchilada. My daughter was eating it when I notice the meat was ALL DARK, you could right away see the meat was left over from previous orders they had made and the meat was sitting on their skillet and was over cooked many, many times until they put it in my daughter's enchilada, I took the plate from my daughtwr and told her not to eat it anymore, so DISGUSTING!!!! Actually ALL the carne asada (filling from three plates) was cooked over and over, you can clearly see and taste the meat is NOT cooked fresh to order, the have a batch of already cooked meat and just over cook it in their skillet when they get an order with that filling. You are charging a 8.99 burrito why not cook the meat fresh when it's ordered? Then the lady the waitress brought some salsa bottle and dropped it inside my husband's orchata cup, she apologized and brought another orchata. Orchataste taste like store powder bought, that you just add water to it, don't expect the real orchata taste, not at all. We went to this restaurant because a neighbor had mentioned this restaurant and had said it was good, so we tried it but DEFENETLY NOT what I was expecting, this is a ZERO star restaurant. The food is just plain and meat is NOT cooked fresh like it should be! Please avoid your self a bad dinning experience, go somewhere else and enjoy the food you are paying for. Would have given a 0 star if I could. Never going back to this place. Picture is the kids enchilada with the over cooked carne asada filling, burned meat, the cook made very poor choices when trying to maximize what they serve,...

I’ve picked up a few times from this place. A very nice grandmotherly lady cooks all the food. Good steak tacos and tamales. Beans are really good but the rice is a little different(chicken broth flavor?). Salsa is excellent with a smoky flavor. The queso fondido was greasy. Her posole had lots of pork and was good. Guacamole is made to order but last time she couldn’t make it because her avocados weren’t all ripe. The best item I’ve had so far is the breaded steak torta. I never like tortas, mainly because it’s usually just a bunch of ingredients all mushed together with no texture. Los Girasoles grilled bun is so light and airy and the steak is fried up crisp but moist and the rest of the toppings makes this the perfect Mexican sandwich for a...

The best torta I've ever had! The cemita is also fantastic! I would try other things from the menu but these two are so good that I can never get anything else.

Update: I'm not sure if they got new owners or what but it cemitas we ordered were missing the sauce, and for some reason they made me a breaded steak sandwich for a torta, which isn't even a menu item so it was extra weird lol. I ordered just a regular steak torta like I'm sure most people do. I think it was missing the cheese also. It took about 20 minutes to get the bill, which is weird because there was only about six customers there. Sorry but you guys need to pull together a bit. Hopefully I will see you again...
