I had a few chips with salsa before hand. The salsa was more watery than I preferred. The enchiladas came and I began to dig in. They were alright and the flavors got better as I went on to eat more. The refried beans had the most flavor and were good for the plate. The rice had the least amount of flavor, but it all worked out. My wife didn't eat much of the nachos and said that it was missing something. Don't take this review too seriously because I love Tex-mex and this is not it. I think anyone coming here looking for good Mexican food here will enjoy it.

The restaurant was clean, quiet, the bathrooms were clean, the cashier so sweet and patient--I couldn't ask for more! We ordered a asada burrito dinner, a chorizo burrito, and a large horchata to split. We were given a basket of chips and a delicious salsa that had flavor, but wasn't too spicy! The burritos were generously filled and had avocado! That's not something I see everywhere. The beans were a great consistency, the rice was soft and flavorful, and the horchata was top notch! It had a unique flavor, too, and wasn't watery. The cup also wasn't overfilled with ice! While we were patiently waiting for the burritos, we fell victim to the slideshow and decided we just had to try a gordita lol. It was SO good, but the portions were so filling we had to take the rest of the gordita and part of a burrito with. The tomatillo sauce was perfect and the red sauce had quite a kick to it, but not enough that it was painful. The food didn't NEED any extra sauce, but I like to try them, anyways! I wished I lived in this area so I could eat more gorditas, but I will definitely stop here again if I am around! If you're lucky enough to live in the area, please do support this sweet business!

Wow, these tacos were incredible. We stopped in after visiting The Growing Place and found this…read morespot on Yelp, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. The steak tacos were spot on. Perfectly cooked steak, cut to the ideal size for the taco, with super fresh onions and cilantro, all wrapped in delicious handmade tortillas. The woman at checkout was so friendly and helpful, which made the experience even better. I'm pretty picky when it comes to tacos, so finding a place like this is a big win. We will definitely be back. Thank you!

This is a family owned business, I think a dad and son run it. I ordered online and my food was almost done when I arrived. The son asked how I found em and I had said I saw they had great reviews on Yelp. He then explained I should look at the google reviews instead. He expressed that Yelp deleted 300+ of their 5 star reviews since they didn't want to pay to claim their business. True or not? Idk. He also said he's trying to get their ratings higher on Yelp but it takes months for the reviews to post. Again, how true that is, IDK. I'm posting my review on 6/18/2026 so we'll see when it becomes visible. When I checked out their Yelp page I did notice a lot of recent 5 star reviews from people who only reviewed La Birria Loca. Regardless... I had 3 Quesabirria tacos and thought it was full of flavor. The sauce was also delicious. Pricing is on the higher said and if you're wanting any type of side toppings it's considered an up charge and the portion is micro tiny small.

Ordered a quesadilla and a drink. Another guy came around, looking like I was there to pick something up for Door Dash or something. I said, "The other guy already took my order." Not much response. He just left. The first guy came back with a bowl of limes, a Diet Coke and some sauces. He left. A third guy came by and dropped -- and I mean dropped -- my quesadilla and a plastic fork in front of me and left. That was the last I saw anyone. The quesadilla was fine, as far as it went. Would have been nice to get a knife. Still don't know what the limes were for. No chips and salsa like you'd usually expect. Finished eating, got up and paid. There are LOTS of really good Mexican restaurants in Aurora. I'll pick one of them next time.

Found this little hole in the wall on Christmas Eve because the place we planned on going to was…read moreclosed for the holiday. Sometimes things are just meant to be! The parking looks awful until you spy the public lot just one storefront away. The interior is simple, which I prefer. Some cute knickknacks but not too much. The menu is the traditional Mexican fare, tacos, burritos, fajitas, plates, etc. Everyone should be able to find something to please them. The waitress was so sweet and helpful. They were doing a lot of take out orders and had my party and another couple dining in. She did great making sure we all had what we needed. We all started talking to one another so felt like dinner with a bunch of friends. My friends had the steak tacos and the Americano plate. Both really liked their items. The tacos were well filled and the meat tender and juicy. The plate had lots of steak on it as well as rice, beans, tortillas, etc. The sauce was a tad spicy but not overpowering for my non-spice liking friend. The star of the night was the Crazy Burrito. Massive burrito filled with shrimp, steak, fries, rice, guac and more. And when I say massive, I mean MASSIVE. Everything inside somehow all went together incredibly well. But each bite was different depending on what the ratio of the items was. Probably 1 of the top 3 burritos I've ever had. The steak, meat and shrimp were all perfectly cooked. Will definitely go back next time in Chicago.

After being seated, a male waiter brought us water and took our order, and that was the last time we saw him until we were paying. When our food arrived, it was delivered by a younger female staff member who then stood directly in front of us, talking over our table to people on the other side of the wall. It was extremely rude and uncomfortable. We ordered the Tampiqueña, which is our usual choice, but this time it was very disappointing. The dish arrived missing tortillas and guacamole. The enchilada tasted off, the cheese was unpleasant, and the steak was overcooked. The rice and beans were only room temperature and didn't taste right either. I ended up only eating part of the steak. I was ready to leave, but my wife wanted to give them a chance to address the issue. Unfortunately, their idea of making things right was giving us a bag of hard chips and what seemed like old guacamole to take home. In response, I chose not to leave a tip, and sadly, they've lost loyal customers. Based on this experience, I would recommend going somewhere else.
