The prices have risen quite a bit in the last year or so and another similar restaurant has opened and is substantially cheaper for similar plates.

This food was not good and it did not taste "authentic". My husband and I were fooled by Google…read morereviews, and believed that this food was going to be amazing. I'm genuinely shocked that anyone would say that this food is "good". To me, it's about on par with a frozen meal you could get at your local grocery store, just more expensive. The salsa had no flavor (just tomato and onion) and it tasted old, and the chicken "meat" used in the food was very low quality, and had a very chewy texture. The rice had no flavor. The margaritas were very strong, and obnoxiously sweet. Really, everything tasted old and/or not made on site. Super disappointing experience. I guess we've been spoiled with our options back in Madison. We won't be back.

Cute place - super clean!

Had the coleslaw and mac & cheese...and that was not bad at all!Had a little bit more mayo than expected with a tad of vinegar, which was OK. Overall, it was a very good lunch/dinner. (by the way, I liked the Kansas City better than the Texas but Texas sauce was also very good! They make their own homemade sauce by the way ) Nick was a great conversational piece and they are going to be starting with a food truck pretty soon which is gonna be pretty neat. He does take a lot of pride in his work, and it shows! So I guess keep an eye open for that. Nice job, Nick. I'll give you the next star an update this review once I have your ribs. Is that a Deal?

They were perfectly happy to have us sit at the bar while we ordered takeout. The woman behind the bar was very friendly and confirmed that our choices were good: pollo en mole poblano (chicken with mole sauce) and lomo de puerco en salsa verde y nopales (pork loin in green sauce with cactus). The TV at the bar had on a show dubbed in Spanish, which was interesting to watch while we waited for our food. The food was entirely worth the wait! I've had pork with nopales elsewhere, but when I had it here I immediately understood what the other restaurants were trying to do. The pork was thin, but well seasoned and still juicy. The sauce was spicy and brought out fruitiness in the pickled nopales. The mole was also very good. The chicken was falling off the bone, and the rich flavors of chocolate and spices shone through. And the handmade tortillas were piping hot inside the neatly folded foil. I am telling everyone I know who drives between the Twin Cities and Chicago about this place. It's a gem, and I'm so glad we went!

Very bland, absolutely zero seasoning on them. It wasn't long before my food arrived. The rice and beans were actually really good. The "salad"...I swear, it's the bagged salad mix from Walmart. Lettuce, red cabbage and carrots. A tiny little cup of sour cream and another with guacamole. The chimichangas were nasty. I got three small ones, very thick breading, or whatever it was. It definitely wasn't a deep fried tortilla. Each one had a small amount of ground beef and a large amount of semi melted cheese inside. I was actually starting to feel nauseous eating them. And I 100% believe they were frozen. I've never seen chimichangas like these before. Of course you are given chips and salsa. The chips were approaching stale. One of the salsa's was delicious, the other was like watery ketchup. Overall, a few hits, a few average items, and some of the worst Mexican food I've ever eaten.
