    Tamal plate

    Good service good food , went at 4 am and staff what tentative even at that hour we ate in and would definitely be back !!! Def recommend for late night munchies

    Business was close where I dropped off a customer, try their enchilada for first.

    The ladies are and provided attentive service. But the food is a bit messy and does not taste as good as one I have tried in Cleveland Nuevo Archipelago.

    This was a great late night spot to hit after a concert at the Aragon. It's open late, the service was good, and the food was good.

    Had a taste for a burrito and Lindo Guadalajara did not disappoint. The family and I ordered to go. The lady at the counter was nice and helpful. The restaurant is more spacious than I thought. They have an ample amount of seating and they have dine in table service. We all enjoyed the food and I'll definitely go again. I was glad to see they are 24 hours. That will definitely come in handy in the future. If you're looking for authentic Mexican food, I do recommend Lindo Guadalajara.

    The food is kind of pricey for the location . Food was good but not much steak added and the torta was over $10. Maybe if ate inside would have been more . Mine was to go . Good thing h is is that they are open super late - if not 24/7

    Is Lindo Guadalajara a secret unrecognized Michelin Bib Gourmand? Of course not. It's an all-night Mexican diner. They will make you a ridiculous omelette at 3 AM, with a side of wilted lettuce and a bit of refried beans topped with "cheese". My Spanish is absolute garbage, but it's mostly enough here. I've been coming here since college, and I don't intend to quit any time soon. Look. Places like this don't last this long unless their customers are dedicated to something besides some kind of objective greatness. The food is tasty enough for my caucasity, authentic enough that many patrons are folks I can't eavesdrop on, and filling enough to justify the (reasonable) prices. It's an institution, a beacon of hope, a tile-covered icon of a time I genuinely miss. I hope it stays open till the sun goes out. So if you're looking to experience la auténtica cocina jaliscience, you might be disappointed. But if you just want Mexican breakfast at an inappropriate hour, served by kind and experienced folks who frankly deserve better than they've gotten in life, I would grab you by the shoulders and walk you here myself, from as far away as Southport Corridor or Evanston. Is it heaven? No. It's Lindo Guadalajara.

    Pollo con Mole

    24hr Mexican comfort food/taqueria in uptown/ravenswood serving delicious & authentic cuisine. Food: If dine in: chips & fresh made very spicy salsa included*** Sopes/Gorditas/Tacos... Al pastor - 5/5 - very savory delicious Carne asada - 4/5 - good but not outstanding Pozole (Rojo) - 5/5 - loved it! Tastes fresh, authentic and delicious Pollo con mole - 4.5/5 - very good but not exceptional; not exactly mole poblano because the sauce is lighter in color and not as thick in consistency Coctel de camaron - 4/5 - tastes authentic alright and with plentiful shrimp! However, I was expecting cut up shrimp and not whole pieces. Also would have been better served with tostada than saltine crackers. Chilaquiles con huevos y carne (bisteak) - 5/5 - loved every part of this hearty breakfast dish Huevos rancheros - 4/5 - it did not come as I had expected, i.e., tortilla/tostada should have been sitting below the eggs Ambience: Standard Mexican cocina type shop Service: Fast and friendly

We stood at the door for about 20 minutes before someone finally told us the wait would be 1-2 hours. Keep in mind, the place is pretty small and already crowded, so there's barely any room to stand while you wait. After getting on the waitlist, we decided to go to a nearby spot for food--but not even 5 minutes later, we got called back saying our table was ready. When we returned, we were seated along the wall in a very tight space--so tight that if I stretched my arm out, I would've hit the person next to me. We noticed a large table nearby had been sitting for a while without food. When their food finally came out, it made us realize our wait would probably be even longer. After another 20 minutes passed and we still hadn't been able to order, we decided to leave. I'm not sure the space is fully ready for the rush right now--it feels overcrowded and service is slow. I'll give it another try once the hype dies down. I'm happy for their success, though--just be prepared to be patient when you go.

I got the cucumber gin cocktail which was the highlight for me! For our food we got the Caesar salad with chicken, the chicken tacos, and the chips and guacamole. You could tell the chips were homemade and were so light and crunchy. I loved that the tacos had bite sized pieces of grilled chicken in them, and they were seasoned so nicely. Overall a nice lunch!

Starting with margaritas (because obviously ‍), queso and chips that were dangerously good, and the chicken empanadas that came out perfectly crispy with so much flavor. We kept looking at each other after every bite like "okay wait... THIS is the best thing here" and then another plate would arrive and prove us wrong again The carnitas fried rice??? I genuinely cannot stop thinking about it. So savory, flavorful, comforting, and packed with crispy carnitas on top with the eggs and pickled onions... literally unreal. And then the skirt steak tacos absolutely stole the show. The steak was cooked perfectly, packed with flavor, and paired so perfectly with all the toppings and sauces. Every single bite tasted fresh and homemade in the best way possible. And can we talk about the ambience for a second because WOW. The music, the energy, the vibe inside, everyone celebrating, the drinks flowing -- it felt like the perfect Cinco de Mayo dinner spot. The service was also AMAZING from start to finish and made the entire experience even better.

The atmosphere is easily for dates, friend outings, after work outings etc. The restaurant decor is nice. It puts you in the mind of a European garden. There is no parking but a garage across the street along with metered Street parking. Beware parking cost $46 for about 2.5 hrs. The food bill was $141, way too expensive for tacos and a few margaritas. I will pass on this place.

Appetizers were quac and chips, and shrimp ceviche. The guac was really good, but the ceviche was the star. Served on a bed of cucumbers, it was visually beautiful, and the flavor was fresh and complex. There was also a LOT of it. We ended up taking some home. Entrees were steak and shrimp for me, and Tampiquena for my friend. In both dishes, the steak was done to perfection. The sauce that came with my shrimp was spicy and deep--lots of flavor layers there. Both of us took home portions of our meals because there was a lot of food on the plates. Finally, the service--the servers are attentive without hovering. If we needed something, they were there, but never intrusive. It is hard to believe this is a little neighborhood spot, given the service and the quality of the food. It was not too busy tonight--we ate early--but I recommend reservations.
