It is a simple restaurant serving the community. Delicious. The Horchata was excellent. Definitely would recommend those items. Tacos looked very popular , and I would like to try those next. Definitely recommend and will return. Also. They have a notice on the door for the public to see; I appreciate business that think about their community

From the Al pastor tacos to the gigantic huarache I had with steak, the flavors were cooked with love and care. This small little establishment in downtown Melrose Park, is super noteworthy and worth it. Only reason for giving it 4 stars was that its cash only, so be prepared. Salud!

Had dinner here with some friends the other night. They are so nice here!!…read more They give lots of salsa and table side chips, happily refilled when you ask. And they had a really delicious chicken with beans taco sample for each of us. It was actually the best part of the meal. I ordered three tacos, two Al pastor and one carne asada. All three were delicious. And the side of rice and beans was really good too, the rice was a little crispy and I was really loving that. I also ordered an horchata, and it was delightful. My friends ordered steak fajitas, it was such a large serving. Lots of tortillas, guacamole, rice and beans included. I got to try the fajitas and it was very very good. The restaurant is so festive and decorated well. Was such a lively spot. The restaurant is very big, lots of tables but I suppose on the weekends this place may be packed. I went on a Monday and maybe 1/3 of the restaurant was full. At the end of the meal they give a dessert that was like a rice pudding with cinnamon on top. Was tasty.

Born and raised in Little Village but not until I became an adult did I start visiting this gem…read more Delicious, AUTHENTIC Mexican food - everything offered is consistently fresh, like homemade and the portions are generous. My favorite hands down are their refried beans and flour tortillas. I can live on them alone. Also deserving mention - eggs with machaca, guisado de puerco, panela cheese. I can go on and on. Give a try, you will not regret it.

Excellent service, great food. Hot salsa served with large chips. Definitely quite mild but fresh…read more I enjoyed trying the additional 4 hot sauces in the table. We ordered a few beers while listening to live singer with back tracking music. A Saturday early evening was not too busy. Baby eels were an adventure. Chicken mole was delicious. The chicken leg/thigh combo was baked I think w sauce on? Skin was soft, I prefer crispy, then add Mole. I skipped the skin but all was tasty. Nice presentation. The fresh tortillas being made a few feet away was an incredible sight. They tasted even better. Next time we need to try iguana!

Our service was impeccable which, to our surprise, could have been due to since they weren't very busy at the time. This experience was accompanied by some of the best chilaquiles and huevos divorciados we have ever had. The tortillas were made fresh and served piping hot! This is definitely a hidden gem that must be given its recognition

I'd give Gorditas Don Ángel a solid 4/5. It's good, but not the best and I feel like that's the…read moremost accurate way to describe it. The food itself is decent. I tried one burrito and one gordita. The burrito had a little kick to it, which I liked, but the gordita was honestly pretty flavorless. Not bad, just kind of... there. Nothing that really stood out or made me want to crave it later. The salsas are good. The biggest downside for me is the overall experience. Seating is rough it gets really packed with not much control over the flow, especially on weekends. It can feel a bit chaotic, and not in a fun way. Service is okay, but nothing special. You can tell they get overwhelmed pretty easily when it's busy. On the plus side, the place is clean, which I always appreciate. Parking, though, can be a bit of a challenge depending on when you go. Overall, it's a solid spot if you're in the area and want something quick and decent, but I wouldn't go out of my way for it. Good, not great.
