    Combo platter with side of guacamole
    Michelle V.

    We were immediately seated when we walked in. The atmosphere was busy with chatter and latino music. We came in for dinner. We ordered a side of guacamole and a combination platter for us to share The guacamole was average, nothing special. It had rice, beans, grilled green onions, grilled cheese square, roasted corn on the cobb, grilled chicken and carne asada. Portions were sufficient and temperature was appropriate. Both the meat were juicy, but this is where it all falls apart. TASTE: The guacamole was our highlight. It had good texture, but needed salt. It didn't pop. Rice was flavorless. Corn on the cob was dry. Chicken and carne asada tasted grilled, but lacked seasoning. I was quite surprised for Mexican food to be so uninspired. Maybe I should stick to Mexican food in and near Chicago.

    Margarita

    This is my favorite Tesla charging stop! Food and drinks have always been great here. Service is a little spotty. They could certainly benefit from a little more attentiveness there but overall it's still my favorite tesla charging stop between Jax and sav! Try the skinny margarita with a taste of sangria on top. Hawaiian taco is good. Queso Birria is good and the tortilla soup is also a good choice

    This is what the margaritas USED to look like. Now its watered down and a huge disappointment

    Jeez this place went downhill $8 for a large margarita on HH price ($2 off) burger it was so watered down o went home and had a beer instead. Service was sub par this time around too. We saw a HH sign when we walked in advertising the discounted apps and beverages. Then we were told no happy hour. When we asked and pointed out the sign we were told it could be allowed this time.. what? Then we were charged HH price for 2 and full price for the 3rd drink. I think this was my last visit unfortunately. I won't be back.

    The food and service was amazing Carolina was the best bartender we ever had here! We ordered chips and dip and order a Togo order of steak and chicken tacos, when we got home and ate the food was delicious we also ordered the New Mexican corn on the cob and it was delicious

    This spot has a full bar and a nice atmosphere. Bonus oitside seating if you choose. A very expansive menu with something for everyone. They have daily and weekend specials on food and drink. Portions are good, although menu items are a bit pricey. $20+ per entrée not including drinks. The food was excellent. If I had a complaint beaides price, it would be the salsa. It was not very flavorful and not spicy at all. We did have an issue with billing. We ordered a special but was charged full price. It took 3 different people and a lot of waiting to get it corrected. Overall, the food is very good and a nice spot.

    Carne Asada
    Milly P.

    First time visiting and overall had a great experience! The service was excellent--our waiter was friendly, attentive, and took the time to explain that they had just launched a new menu, which was helpful. I ordered the carne asada, and while it was good, I felt the steak could've used a bit more seasoning for my taste. That said, the ambiance of the restaurant was really nice, and the music added a great vibe to the meal. I'd definitely come back to try more dishes!

    Steak Fajitas.
    Ivonne M.

    Great vibe! Friendly Staff! Anejo is pretty consistent with their dishes. My go to is the steak fajita so good.

    I've been disappointed each time since their management changed. Happy hour prices aren't honored and when we asked and confirmed ahead of time our server told us all drafts were on happy hour then when our check came and we questioned the totals she asked "who told you they were included", like you did ma'am. If you're coming for drinks, get a beer, otherwise it'll be severely watered down.

    Red sangria
    Heather M.

    Our server, Cameron, was delightful and fast as a whip! The food came out super fast and he checked in with us regularly. I enjoy the atmosphere here, the service, of course the food, and the beverages, too! The fajitas were more than enough for the two of us to enjoy. I don't know what the seasoning is that they use on the steak but it's wonderful. Their salsa is great and the sangria is yummy!

    Food is great, Derek behind the bar works nothing but magic. Have not had a bad experience here. Highly recommend it if you're in the area.

Greeted and sat right away- 5 of us. Hostess nice, server nice. Right away had two large bowls of chips and two types of salsa brought to us. Chips were good, just added salt. Unfortunately it went downhill from there. And we were patient, super patient. It was a Friday, but it was not overly crowded, like I said - seated immediately around 7:40. Drinks, took over 30 minutes for a pineapple one and three skinny- we joked the food would arrive first, but we were very wrong. Then, the waitress waited for us to try- I think it was a newer person at the bar. We tried to like it, but somehow it tasted like flat sprite.our server took them away and made us them herself. Now, those were great. Small side of guac was brought after that- meant to go with the meal, but we were so hungry we just ate with the chips. It was very good- fresh tasting. Then we waited. And waited some more. Asked about the food, then waited some more. Finally, we cut our losses and asked for the check minus the food that never came. The band was starting next door and we wanted to celebrate the bday girl. Pic 1, text just after 8pm- shows me joking that I was going to eat my friends food since she was headed over from next door and taking a bit and we had ordered 10 minutes prior. Pic 2, text shows us giving up- 9pm. So over an hour wait on food that never arrived - even if busy that would be a deal breaker. We were excited to try it too- disappointed.

    Perfect on seasoned steak and it's a good size. The restaurant has good service I was aknowledge…read moreas soon as I got there.
