    We were passing through Mahomet, Illinois, and happened upon Breaking Taco (heavily referencing Breaking Bad). I had the beef taco salad. It was so large and packed with goodness that I just couldn't finish. My husband had the soft tacos and he raved about the flavor! Look up the menu and pay them a visit! You will be a happy and satisfied customer!

    A change from your standard Mexican restaurant. They don't use the standard white queso. Try the fried chicken quesadilla. Staff are always friendly. It's not big but has a cozy feel inside and provides outdoor dining in the warmer months.

    Fantastic place and great tacos! Our group was taken care of quickly and checked on often. I commented to our server that he really seemed to love his job. I'm eager to come back soon.

    This place is a real hidden gem in a little town just outside of Champaign, IL and wow this place very authentic Mexican and I think it could beat out Maize another great authentic Mexican place out in the center of Champaign. The tacos where off the wall fantastic. Had 2 Carne Asada tacos and they were super delicious. The taco shell full of flavor and the Carme cooked just right juicy and flavorful on top of some onions and cilantro. I also had the Green Enchiladas. Super delicious and flavorful as well with the green sauce and the other ingredients. To drink I had the Horchata which was great but not very sweet either. I thought it could have used some cinnamon on it. Overall super delicious food being a very small hole in the wall in Mahomet, IL. Glad I tried it through as it was being referred to be by a friend.

    Always great! Best chips and salsa around. A super burrito and a giant (32oz) margarita make me a happy fat kid!

    This is some of the best Mexican I've had around Champaign. Now I don't have to drive for great tacos, tortas, or enchiladas.

    Had a nice lunch with friends here yesterday! We were coming in at a weird hour (3:30 on a Sunday),…read moreso, we were seated right away. The service was great, they took our order promptly, the waitress knew the menu well (I had questions about spice levels), and they checked in on us a few times. My friends got the Dirty Horchata (January special drink) and the taquitos (think this was also a special) and everything was really tasty! I got two tacos and with the chips and salsa, that was perfect. Ample parking, and I hear it does get really busy, so, expect a wait in normal mealtime hours.

    Stopped in here while on a work trip. I'm only sad that i only went here once. the funny thing is…read morethat my food was just ok. The ambiance and decor are perfection. It's beautiful and fun inside the space. The people are super friendly and kind. You just want to invite them to sit down and est dinner with you! I ordered the birria ramen which ended up cold and clumpy. I said something and they were super great and replaced it for me. I also ended up ordering the churros for dessert and they were kind enough to give it to me complimentary. I tell you, excellent service brings people back faster than anything else. I'm ok that i didn't love what i ordered. I will try something else next time. The chips and salsa were also tasty- salsa is not spicy but they do have several spicy options on the tables so you can mix your own heat level as desired. I also got a raspberry lime margarita on the rocks and it was great! Solid flavor combo. Can't really go wrong with margs ever. I will tell everyone always to come here when in Bloomington!!
