Stumbled in after a full day of plant shopping, hungry and without a plan, and Amigos turned out to be the best kind of accidental discovery. The burritos are enormous. Chipotle wishes. Wonderfully seasoned, stuffed generously, and priced in a way that makes you feel like you are getting away with something. This is the kind of burrito that makes you reconsider every burrito you have had before it. The horchata was so good I was guzzling it like my life depended on it. Cold, creamy, perfectly spiced. And the choco flan was my personal highlight of the meal. Rich, silky, and deeply satisfying in that way only a great flan can be. We visited on the Fourth of July, and despite some visible storm damage the team was actively working to repair, the restaurant had a steady and loyal stream of locals coming through without pause. That says everything. Frankfort knows what it has here. The decor is cute and the family owned warmth comes through in every interaction. You can feel the care and pride in this place from the moment you walk in. A gem hiding in plain sight. We completely understand why the locals love it. read more

The food here was good. The rice was good, the beans were barely ok. I think they are canned. We ordered elite, and the elite had great flavor but it was super drenched in mayo. The carne asada was good and so were the flautas. To be honest I enjoyed it but I have had the same entres that were much better and for less money. It's not a huge disparity between costs but it's hard not to notice when the quality isn't the same. The server was great; super friendly and checked in us a lot. The restaurant is a humble place in a strip mall. It does have a Mexican vibe with all of the decorations. They weren't very busy so having tables that weren't cleaned was not a good look. I'm not sure we will visit again but if we do, I'll know we will have a good meal. Don't let this review keep you from giving them a try. Let me know what you think. read more

The food here is excellent. Everything I've tried has been really good. I have no complaints.. This is not a fancy place but if you're looking for fresh Mexican food, this is the place to come to. They only have one cook and maybe one or two servers so they're not super fast but I don't mind because I really enjoy their food I usually order takeout and they're pretty quick. The most I ever waited for takeout was 10 to 15 minutes, so take out is really the way to go.. Their prices are reasonable maybe a little on the high side depending on what you order. read more

Our first time here and the service as great! They are very friendly and fast! We ordered the steak burrito suizo and the steak taco salad and both were excellent! Highly recommend! We will be going back! read more

We ordered on a whim for a takeout lunch and it was delicious! We did a phone order and food was ready quickly. The tacos were yummy and big. The chicken was super yummy as well, and I can be picky. Everyone liked their food. read more

The ppl in there are so nice, I believe it's all family. The place is always clean and staff always friendly. So far everything we have had to eat has been really good. The beef and steak are our go to, need to try the chicken next. The steak is tender and not full of gristle. They do need a milder salsa for ppl who need it lol & I wish they were open later on weekends. But this is our new favorite Mexican restaurant- read more

This review is for a carry out order. I ordered a steak taco dinner for dinner and it was delicious. The tacos had very good taste and were fresh. The cook took my order and was very polite. The hostess/server was very nice as she seemed to be the owner. I looked around and the place was very clean. I will for sure be returning. read more

Been here twice. Nicer now without the ChooChoo mess. Clean, polite, and empty. It was very cold out. Also noticed quite a bit of pickup orders. Ordered several dinners. Beans and rice above average and all rest was very good. Only chicken enchiladas were lacking some flavor in my opinion. Bit pricey, but not crazy. Will be back as it beats many in the area. Hope they have margaritas as I didn't ask. If so, I would be even happier. Give it a try. read more

I found a hidden diamond in Mokena but it is CASH only. I had a taste for tacos and this restaurant had over 4 stars on Yelp. I placed an order to go for their taco dinner and one tostada. The taco dinner came with three tacos, rice and beans. I selected the steak beef and chicken taco. They were seasoned well, fresh, tender and topped with your choice of, lettuce, tomato, sour cream and avocado. My favorite was the chicken taco seasoned to perfection and juicy. The Tostado was layered extremely well with season refried beans, beef, lettuce, cheese, and tomatoes. The food came out fast and piping hot! Their sauces, the red, and the green sauce was perfect and not too overpowering on the food . What stood out to me was the customer service they were inviting, pleasant and hospitable. They have a very large dining area, which had a Mexican vibe because of the tablecloth and decorations on the wall. They don't have a bar, but I will be back for the dine in experience! Remember no credit or debit cards just cash. read more

Had a quick dinner here in between jobs - very friendly, clean family business. The food is authentic Mexican - I am vegetarian so I had veggie tacos - very delicious and fresh tasting. They give you free chips and salsa too. The prices are very reasonable. They used to only accept cash but now they take credit cards. Will definitely be back. read more

Amazing food here. Service is quick and efficient. Ambiance is great! I would highly suggest this place to anyone looking for authentic Mexican food around the area! read more

Wowza! We found this place almost by accident today- every other Mexican place in Frankfort was closed so we tried Amigos. I have to say- it's the best in town. It's authentic, the beans are amazing. Steak tacos are the real deal, and my wife said the ground beed was excellent too. I'm glad we found this place- it's going to be our go-to going forward now. Bonus for being open on Sunday's, too. read more

On one of the rare sunny days we have had in the last three weeks, I needed to get out of the house and my meandering found me in Frankfort. I found Amigos because of Yelp, and Mexican is maybe my favorite cuisine so it was an easy choice. They are a cash-only establishment, which is clear to see and honestly I'm curious who missed the signage and then complained. We were even told when we came in that it was cash-only to confirm that would be ok. They do have an ATM in the restaurant in case you don't have cash on hand. The food was good as was the service. I got the chicken sopes dinner, hopes being my favorite; my partner got the chicken fajitas. Both were good--the chicken was excellent. The fajitas had broccoli as one of the ingredients which I don't think I've seen in other restaurants before. The sauces on the table were ok; I preferred the green to the red, because although the red was the spicy one it really didn't have that much heat to it. The salsa that came with the chips, however, had more heat and was really good. That's always my problem at restaurants with good salsa; I can eat chips and salsa forever, forget my dinner. Portions were good; I ate a bitt less than a sope and a half before I needed to hang it up. It's a family place; the servers were mother and daughter. They were attentive and courteous, welcoming, and our food was ready quickly. I'd eat here again if I was in the area. read more

The workers were extremely friendly and welcoming. The service was definitely excellent. I ordered a steak burrito dinner with double rice. Unfortunately, the steak was not seasoned at all and reminded me of ground beef. I really did not like it. My fiancé ordered that chorizo burrito dinner and he was not a big fan of his either. Everything just tasted very bland, which was surprising, because I heard really good things about this place . He loved the horchata though. They do have a big parking lot that is shared with other places. I don't think we will return because we spent $35 and the food was not that good . Cash only. They do accept Zelle. read more

Delicious and authentic Mexican food! This is a hike from my house but worth the trip, everything is made fresh from scratch and truly tastes homemade. Adding this to my favorite taco places moving forward. I would absolutely recommend the pastor tacos with the spicy red salsa! read more

Awesome food and amazing staff/service! Came here later on a Saturday because of the great Yelp reviews. We were not disappointed! The chips and salsa were the perfect start! The salsa was super fresh with a nice bite. I ordered the sopes - one steak and one Al pastor. The sope itself was delicious as were the toppings. The steak was good but the Al pastor was just okay. I wouldn't order that particular meat again but would certainly try something else in the sopes because they had great flavor and texture. The rice and beans were also stellar. The portions were huge and we left totally stuffed! They are cash only but do accept Zelle payments. Will be back to try more! read more

We order amigos a few times a month. Great authentic Mexican food! We usually get taco dinners or the tampequena!

Delicious and authentic mexican food. The meat wasnt greasy or overly salted and they made accommodations for my gluten allergy. I only wish they would redecorate from the old choo choo johnny's that they took over. It looks very old and outdated inside. read more

Food isn't what it used to be, steak tacos taste like cheap hamburger. Red & green sauce has no kick either...bring back the old cook

I can't believe that this place has been there almost 2 years and I just tried it!! They give you complimentary chips N salsa. Best horchata! The food is fresh...hot..and very authentic! I had a steak taco, a cheese quesadilla and a tostada. My husband had a chicken burrito. Not much of an atmosphere or decor but the food and service is FANTASTIC! Please support this business!! Cash only.. Closed on Wednesday. read more

Husband and I had lunch there today and totally enjoyed everything. I had the marinated chicken tacos and he had steak tacos. The staff was excellent. I didn't see alcohol but the food more than made up for that. We will visit again. If you want the steak tacos chopped you have to request otherwise it comes in steak strips which were tender and seasoned well too. They only take cash so remember that! Food was reasonably priced. read more

We finally tried Amigo's - the food was very bland - we had ground beef nachos - very good portion but just tasteless. Steak burrito was ok - cheese enchiladas were very blah - cheese wasn't melted and the sauce tasted like it came out of a can. Food was pricey and cash only is a pain - read more

We have FINALLY found our place. Our place to get authentic, delicious, fresh Mexican food. We have legitimately tried every single Mexican restaurant in the Frankfort area and none have stood out...until Amigos. We've ordered a variety of items - from your classic steak tacos to sopas, flautas, quesadillas, homemade guacamole and more. Every single item has been delicious. Even their cheese quesadillas have more flavor than you could imagine. But, my most favorite part? The fact that every time they've taken my order over the phone, no matter who I get, they call me "honey". Makes you feel like you're calling your best friend's mom and she's making you that authentic Mexican food that you can't get anywhere else. Keep up the good work, Amigos. We are so happy we found you guys! read more

The absolute best mexican food in the area. A steak burrito is my barometer for how good a tacqueria truly is, and this is the best one I've found in the area. Properly trimmed steak, and not one of the dozen burritos I've eaten contained even the smallest bit of gristle. The portion is large, the quality is high, the price point is fair, and the service is charming and sweet. I absolutely love this place. read more
