    Carne asada lunch special
    Sharita C.

    This restaurant is muy bien!!! I'm in town for work and just googled restaurants near me. I love, love, LOVE Mexican food! So when I saw the website said "home best skirt steak in NWI" I had to come in and see and let me tell you, they did not disappoint! The steak was seasoned perfectly and cooked at my requested temperature!!! The chips are made in house and the salsa, soooo good! And look at the plate, they made a flower using a chili pepper!!! The restaurant is big enough to host large parties and beautiful with TVs, tuned to sports. And the service, I was great, with a beautiful smile when I walked in and my waiter Alvaro, was so sweet and attentive! The bar has a plethora of tequila options and the Paloma, AMAZING! If you're in the area, please stop by and have a meal and a drink, ask for Alvaro!

    The owner is a terrible individual and I would never patronize this place. My food had no flavor. The drinks have a lot of ice and not much liquor in them. I complain to the owner. He was very cocky and nonchalant about service and food. We had a party of 22 people and we were all disappointed in the service and food. This is not authentic Mexican food nor is it upscale Mexican food. The food is terrible. I will not be going back.

    Met some friends for dinner on a Friday. It was my first time here. It was pretty lively, but not packed. We had a reservation and got seated right away. Our sever was great and very welcoming. We all had margaritas and they were really good and really strong, which my friends had earned me about. I had the sopes and they were good. I believe my friend both had the carne asada, which they said is their favorite dish on the menu. Overall, it was good.

    The food was yummy, and the service was great, too. They have half off on house margaritas on Mondays and Wednesdays, so that was a plus for me.

    La Ranchera Suiza

    I was so tempted to get my steak tostadas but I decided to try the La Ranchera Suiza and WOW! My mouth is watering writing this review from how good it is! The skirt steak was delicious and putting a little bit of everything in a corn tortilla was perfection. Everything on the platter went together and just tasted so good. And of course, cheese tastes good on almost everything haha. If you haven't ordered their skirt steak entrees, you must!!! I love my tostadas so much but this dish stole my heart. And Asada always gives super generous portions, so I was extremely full after this haha. Service wise wasn't as great as the last few times as we were in an odd corner where we were kind of forgotten. We ate our chips pretty fast and never got a refill until around the time the food came. Even though this happened, the dish was just so good it made up for it!

    This is the view from our table. First time here and it's a pretty impressive bar. Can you say tequila?

    I'm interested in the fish tacos but am curious if the fish is beer battered or just breaded?

    My husband had the tilapia tacos and it was not breaded at all. Just appeared to be grilled with some seasoning on it. There were shrimp and red snapper to choose from, I believe, but I'm not sure if they come differently.

    Has Asada moved to Highland yet!? Thanks!

    Nope not yet. They will be moving first and second week of August

    Mother's Day dinner was disappointing, especially since we had an early 5 PM reservation and the…read morerestaurant was only about half full. It took nearly 15 minutes for our server to greet us, and our appetizer arrived before our drinks, for this round, only three drink orders total. Throughout the visit, we felt pressured to place our entrée order before we were ready. Once our food arrived, we noticed the enchiladas had red sauce instead of the tomatillo/green sauce we ordered. The food runner insisted the red sauce was tomatillo sauce, which was clearly incorrect. What stood out most was the lack of service continuity. We were seated by the window and noticed our server, Jacqueline, left around 6 PM simply because her shift ended. There was no introduction to another server or any handoff whatsoever. After waiting quite a while with no one checking on us, we eventually had to go to the host stand ourselves just to close out the bill. Our tab was around $200. Rather than dine and dash, we paid in full for the food and drinks, but chose not to leave gratuity based on the experience. The food itself was nicely presented and overall tasted good, but high prices comparable to Chicago do not automatically make a restaurant upscale. If you're looking to overspend on Mexican cuisine while receiving poor customer service, this may be the place for you.

    Very pretty restaurant. Came during the holidays & the decor was fabulous. Our server was very…read morefriendly & patient. He helped us choose our appetizer. We got the guac trio. One had pineapple, one had persimmon and one was tomato/classic. So delicious. Chips were great, the salsa was very spicy. We had a pitcher of cranberry margaritas. Loved them, not too sweet or tart. My entree was fish tacos. They were deep fried & a little too done. Almost burnt tasting. I liked the slaw that came on it. They brought out a giant sparkler & watermelon shots for my friend's birthday. So fun & tasty! Can't wait to come back & try something else on their large menu.
