WORTH THE TRIP I recently visited El Chile Restaurant…read moreMexican Grill in Plano, Illinois with a client, after a visit to the Farnsworth House; despite the distance from Chicago, it was absolutely worth the trip! El Chile is located in Plano, Illinois; the outward appearance is minimal, as is the interior decor. However, the food and the service is excellent. Our waiter was very helpful, and very patient; I should mention he did not speak English well but he was trying to hard to accommodate us it didn't matter. I only wish I spoke better Spanish and perhaps this is something I need to work on for myself, but no matter: he was very attentive and very nice to us. The chips & salsa were presented first and the salsa OH MY GOD THE SALSA. OH MY GOD THE SALSA I have never had better salsa in my life. Thick, rich, full of flavour and bursting with spice and heat; it was absolutely delicious, and I couldn't get enough of it. Yes, it burned the roof off my mouth but who cares; it was incredible. It was clearly made from scratch using fresh ingredients and the care and attention to it was well noted. I ordered the carne asada tacos and they were incredibly delicious as well: hot, perfectly seasoned and my only complaint is that I should have ordered more of them! Hot diggity dog! There was a tray of wonderful dipping sauces presented with the tacos as well; I don't recall the different types but they were all tasty and delectable. The salsa was so good my client and I ordered a tub of it for each of us, to go...and I'm sorry to say it didn't last very long once I got home...oh my god, it was good! I heartily recommend El Chile and it is definitely WORTH THE TRIP.

There's a bar but it's not one that you would sit at. Food was good. It was out super fast! It was not over seasoned or overly salty at all. Not the best service, no one ever came to see how we were doing or if we needed anything. There was a pretty steady stream of takeout orders going while we were there so maybe that's the best way for this place, but Id definitely eat here again

Has to be the best place in Yorkville for Mexican food. It may not look like it but it's pretty…read moregreat quality to be honest. Que Brava is not one of these typical cluttered family owned and operated restaurants. For sure seems organized and competent. The prices are kind of high, which is the only bad thing. Coming in here the first time we got something that wasn't expected. It's actually a pretty clean place. There's tables that actually are cleaned off between customers if you can believe that. A good thing is there's alcohol. There's some other classic beverages too. Get agua frescas. They have horchata, and there's Jamaica which is made with hibiscus. But alcohol you have to get it of course. It's about $13 for a margarita. These come in a few flavors, some interesting ones. I got the Hibiscus Margarita. This is made with Grand Marnier, hibiscus tea, lime mix, tequila, and triple sec. Great thing was it wasn't as sweet as it sounded like it would be. The prices keep people from getting more. For sure the best stuff is the food. It's got a whole vegetarian section. A lot easier to order. It's about $18 for the tacos. These are a few tacos filled with mushrooms, peppers, and zucchini. Comes with sides of rice and beans. Pretty filling. Also they have the other usual classics. There's quesadillas, tortas, and more stuff. Great place as far as taste and authentic flavors. It's closed Tuesdays. There's meaty options as well as a few things for vegans and vegetarians.

It has the usual stuff like burritos, tacos, or whatever. However there's more than that of course. The prices are pretty okay for portions. A lot of menu items are familiar. It's got what one would expect from an Americanized Mexican place. The menu isn't particularly extensive but it's got most things covered it seems. For sure can't be complete without alcohol. It's about $9 for a margarita. We got a couple of these including peach. For sure you can't forget about the food. Of course any legitimate Mexican restaurant has to have complimentary chips and salsa. Yes they thankfully have this. It's about $9 for a burrito. We got these without meat, just vegetables. Okay but basic. They have bottles of hot salsas that kick this up at least. Other menu items are more authentic. They have meaty options including beef and chicken, and classic options like tortas. Crazy busy place at times and service can take about forever. It's located on Bridge Street in the plaza with the Roadhouse restaurant. The menu is pretty meaty with limited choices for vegetarians.

Although it is prolly apocryphal, it is said Toulouse-Lautrec commented much the same about French restaurants. There is a sizable Latino population in our neck of the woods, thus there are many Mexican places to eat. MiRancho here falls under the category of my opening statement. It's (way) off the beaten path, and definitely not picturesque. But I have had too many good meals in places that aren't exactly the ritz, so I had to try MiRancho. The Yelps were encouraging. I was ordering from the menu board, then I saw a small sign announcing a "buffet". I asked the nice fellow behind the counter and he said it was on. Well. It was, again, not pretty, but the quality of what was on/in it was top-notch. Lotsa meats, all totally yum. Three soups, including a great Pozole. Proper garnishes and side dishes. The throw from the soft drink bubbler was excellent. Even from the buffet, everything tasted vibrant and fresh--Might be the best Mex food I've had in this area. At the right price, too. In the end, it was very "home-like" and I took the simple, yet clean surroundings as a statement of "We're about the food 100% here". A true "off-the path" gem!
