We came about 3-4 years ago when we first moved to Minooka and weren't very impressed. Decided to give it another try tonight & I'm glad we did because it was improved! My fajitas came out sizzling, all of our tacos (pastor and steak with cheese sauce) were great. My watermelon margarita was a little too sweet, but the lime & jalapeño margaritas were much better. Service was fine there was one guy managing the tables, takeout, and phone but he did a good job. read more

My wife and I tried this restaurant again and we were pleased with the food. I ordered the steak tampiquena and it was well made. My wife ordered the steak quesadilla and it came with two well seasoned quesadillas. The restaurant is clean and well kept. Nice Mexican feel. The server did a good job. I will visit again! read more

Stopped in on a Thursday night for a quick bite. There were maybe two tables seated and we were able to pick where we wanted to sit. The service we had at the resturant was great. The two employees we encountered were extremely nice and made sure to check in on us here and there asking if we needed anything. There are no prices on the menu. If you use a credit card to pay there is also an extra fee. The chips and salsa and margarita were good. The overall flavor of the food however was lacking. It could use more seasoning and not rely on salsa to give it flavor. But the overall ambiance woth music and the tvs playing were nice. read more

Strip mall parking, no issue. Clean friendly entrance. Greeter / server met us at the door. Sunday afternoon, only a few tables occupied. Started with a Dos X and a side of guacamole. Outstanding guac. Dinner, wife and I shared their double steak, chicken, shrimp fajita platter. Very nice. Served hot, flavor abounds and presentation was perfect. Service was quick and always available. I saw some poor reviews..... hard to interrupt their bad experience(s) as mine was more than adequate. Give it a try. Looking at the other tables, all food looked creative and on point for an establishment of this style. read more

Los Campesinos Mexican Grill - Fajita for two. Combo steak, chicken and shrimp. Perfect flavor. Perfect temp - Mexican Near Me - Minooka, Illinois

Hidden fees when paying with a card that they don't tell you until its time to pay. Completely bland flavor.. the food itself stunk of toilet water and poop. Not appetizing at all. I have no idea how this place is still open. I tried to give this place the benefit of the doubt because all of the people that I know that have been here find it disgusting. I really tried to love it... I couldn't find one nice thing to say about it. Gave me the worst diarrhea I've ever had. DO. NOT. COME HERE. Unless you want a stomach ache and tasteless food, of course. read more

I stopped by even with the low rating. Honestly I have been to other restaurants in the area and this is the only one worth returning to. I ordered a margarita on the rocks and it was perfect. I ordered the guacamole app. It was a little bland but better when mixed with the salsa. For the main dish, I ordered the Campesinos Burrito with ground beef. Flavors were great and serving size was big. The staff was great and checked on me multiple times. The restaurant had plenty of seating and great music playing. read more

Was not happy at all with this place. Disappointed honestly, love small places near by. The food was very plain. Taco salad was horrible, no flavor at all and they forgot cheese. Got a steak quesadilla instead and wasn't much better. The cheese they used tasted like melted white American cheese which tasted horrible for a quesadilla. Rice didn't have a taste at all. The only thing good was the chips and salsa. To make things worse they charged us for a lot of stuff extra that they didn't even tell us about, husband definitely had a talk.... Won't be back read more

This is quickly becoming our "go-to" place for great Mexican food! I just don't understand the other low ratings I've seen, as I've been here 3 or 4 times now and the service and food is always consistently good. I try something new every time we visit and haven't had anything that I didn't really enjoy! We are always greeted promptly upon entering and given attention with multiple check ins from the staff. My favorite dish so far has to be the Chilaquiles! The Dos Equis on draft and the margaritas are fantastic compliments to the meal also. read more

We ate here for lunch the other day - oddly the only people in there at the time on a Saturday. One other couple came later. We were greeted and sat down. Food was awesome and arrived quickly - I was surprised no one else was there. We will definitely go back. Seems to be a hidden gem. Try it! read more

Ordered 2 quesabirria dinners to go over the phone. Said 30-35 minutes over phone which seemed like a long time considering they didn't need to cook anything but I figured they might have been busy since it was a Saturday night. When I got there and saw there were only 7-8 tables sat I realized I was wrong about them being busy. I arrived as directed after 30 and they said it would be just a bit more.... It was another 30 minutes more. So now we are in for 60 minutes on an order only requires warming a few tortilllas and filling them... making this order takes 5 minutes tops so that means they didn't start on it until after 55 minutes from receiving g the order and 25 minutes after I was standing there. You would think since they were not too busy they would have said he he's here waiting fire this order ??? Any way got home and like the other 2 times Ive ordered here the food was bad. Burris was bland and cheese tastes off. I have enough for 2 meals left on a gift certificate I was given and will probably throw it out instead of getting food from here again, it was that bad. Avoid read more

The food was great. Service was great. I was impressed. Quite and peaceful atmosphere.

Checked this out today as was craving Mexican. Although based on previous the reviews was a little hesitant. Walked in was greeted immediately and seated. Order negra Modelo and guac to start, both came out quick along with chips and salsa on the house. Chips, salsa and Modelo were all delicious, guac was ok to good, nothing amazing (honestly chipotle is better). Ordered the chicken fajitas as my main it also came out super quick, fajitas (chicken, pepper and onion) were well sized, could only finish half. The sides were on the small side (beans, rice and guac) but was enough for the fajitas I did finish. Overall, this is a solid Mexican offering, not perfect but for the price point definitely on par for what I'd expect. read more

We visited los campesinos yesterday for an early dinner. The food was great and the service was good too. We will be back again! We had the Molcehete and El Comal. Both were great read more

Service: Excellent Food: Average Price: Below Average Michelada was made correct, no ice however. Our server was awesome and very friendly. Professional by far. There is no bar area which is kind of a bummer. The seats are uncomfortable, but very Mexican and authentic. Chips and salsa weren't that great. We had the steak and shrimp fajitas and they were halfway decent tasting, but they weren't sizzling when they came out like every other restaurant which leads me to believe everything is pre-made and cooked for their convenience and heated up. I would probably come back once every 4-6 months and that's about it. read more

Food was mediocre at best. Service was terrible. Our server took our order and then we never saw him again until we were getting up to pay. He didn't bring our food or come by to ask how it was. If he had, we would have been able to tell him they didn't bring my wife the right meal. When we were getting up to leave and finally saw him, we told him hers was wrong and he made a bunch of excuses like it was our fault instead of apologizing. Won't go back here again. read more

I have been here a few times and the food and service have been excellent. There are many similar restaurants in the area and this place is my favorite if I want great Mexican food. Either myself or someone I have dined with have had the burrito, chimichanga, fajitas, quesadilla, tacos, flautas, margaritas, and other specialty dishes and all were better than expected. The rice, beans, and chips/salsa are also very good. read more

Los Campesinos Mexican Grill - The burrito lleno was awesome! - Mexican Near Me - Minooka, Illinois

If I could give no stars, I would. I came in over the winter and the service was so bad. Really bad. I thought, I'll try again. I ordered a burrito... something I never get, but wanted something filling. It was nothing more than a flour tortilla, canned chicken, and white cheese sauce over the top. It was supposed to be stuffed with chicken, beans, rice, and sour cream with cheese and red sauce over the top. My husband got the molcajete. It was basically meat with tomato paste over the top. Not at all what it is supposed to be. Bad. Really bad. read more

Ordered here through GrubHub. They packaged everything nice and neat. We had the shrimp chimichanga dinners and they were fantastic! The restaurant didn't skimp on the shrimp one bit. The chips, salsa, and cheese dip were really good as well. We will definitely be return customers! read more

Great food, and everything was cooked to perfection. definitely worth the drive out here.

Best Mexican food in town! Carne Asada is cooked and seasoned to perfection. Every plate is cooked to order. read more

The food is ok. I ordered fajitas and an order of cheese dip as an appetizer. The food arrived and the dip had no chips. I don't live far from the establishment...so I called thinking they just forgot the chips and salsa. What Mexican restaurant doesn't give you chips and salsa?? After arguing a few minutes about the salsa...I moved on to the cheese dip that I ordered for an appetizer, with no chips. I mean...what good is cheese dip without chips? I was told I had to purchase the chips separate. Well...I am a local and eat take out 3-5 times a week. I sure hope a bag of tortilla chips, and a container of salsa, that EVERY customer receives complimentary when dining in, was worth losing a good customer. read more

Fast and friendly service! The carne asada is delicious!! We have been here a few times and it have not disappointed. The micheladas are cold and yummy. read more

Used to be good. Portions are absurdly small now and prices went up. Avoid.

I went on Friday to come check it out. Awesome atmosphere and great margaritas! Very cozy and inviting. Definitely will be returning ! read more

The food was ok, nothing special. Service wasn't good, and the food was nothing special

Service was okay. Hostess and waiter was the same person and only person working besides kitchen crew. Chips and salsa were okay. They brought my daughters food and left me waiting for my food another 10 mins. Food was not great. read more

It is extremely difficult for me to find a Mexican restaurant that I like. I was raised on Mexican food so the bar is high. This restaurant is worthy of 5 stars. The service is fast and friendly. The food was incredible. Authentic Mexican cuisine at its finest. Today was our first time there. Can't wait to get back there. I had the steak fajitas. Out of this world! read more

Good food but pricy for how skimpy they are. You don't get much. Thinnest burritos I've ever seen and watered down queso soup!! read more

Excited to have a new Mexican restaurant in the area, unfortunately the three orders we had (steak and shrimp burritos and steak quesadilla) were not very good. All very salty and the kept screwing up one order. Pretty pricey. The $17 margarita picture was good, but a bit pricey. Clean place and friendly staff. Food not so good. read more

tried for the first time last week. will not do a second trip. Chips and salsa are nothing to speak about. Guacamole is NOT fresh, looks like paste, doesn't taste like avocado was part of the mix. Steak burrito bland and chewy, Cheese enchalata have no taste. place was crowded and i can't understand why, even margaritas average at best. read more

So I have very few one star reviews, We saw there was a new Mexican restaurant in town and couldn't wait to try it out. ( We ordered our food to go) Yikes! It was over $40 for two burritos and a Carne Asada, which wouldn't have completely bothered us if the burritos were not gone in 4 bites, they were tiny came in the same small container and only consisted of steak, no lettuce, cheese etc, drowned in a sauce that tasted like ketchup with some sort of Mexican seasoning carelessly tossed in. The Carne Asada was basically a bowl of slop (see photo) the steak was extremely tough and bone dry, could barely chew through it. I've had softer beef jerky. There was raw onions, raw tomatoes, raw jalapenos on top. Beans were runny , and we all got sick overnight to top off this horror show. I am not coming back this in no way authentic Mexican food, its ridiculous that they think they can overcharge the good hardworking people of Minooka and give you food that my 12 year old son could make better. Dining out should be a great experience, not a nightmare. read more

I really thought this place looked nice from the inside! We are living A little North of here moving to Channahon eventually so I now know I wont be coming back! I have been to hundreds of Mexican restaurants in the country and around Chicago area and this place was one the worse when it comes to food! The salsa was bland like out of jar and chips were bought at a grocery store the Guacamole was basically was a avocado crushed no cilantro or tomato or flavor I had two Al pastor taco's no flavor no meat hardly but 2 tortillas which were not good but carbs and they charge for red and Green sauce which was strike 3!!! The only good thing I can say is that the people were nice but food was terrible...... read more

The food is very flavorful, and there are plenty of vegetarian options and the paella is delicious. So fun to be able to get something so special as paella in such a little town. The ambiance is also very cute. read more

Los Campesinos Mexican Grill - Burrito fajita - Mexican Near Me - Minooka, Illinois

This has become my favorite place to grab tacos. Service is great. Chips and salsa are amazing. Have not ventured far from tacos, but we normally go on Tuesday nights so it's taco Tuesdays for my family. I would love to venture out and go maybe with a burrito or some other fare here. Tacos Campesinos is my personal favorite. My wife and daughter love the tacos deluxe. It's relatively new to the area but it does not disappoint. read more

The drink menu is a lot fun. The portion sizes were phenomenal. The service was really good and I enjoyed the atmosphere is very laid-back and easygoing. I had enough chips and salsa. Last me a lifetime. On top of all the other good food It was great service a lot of fun. read more

I try my hardest to give a place a fair chance, but when the choice of steak for the tampiqueña is questionable (t-bone instead of traditional skirt steak or flank, definitely not t-bone.) and they don't give you an enchilada which is also a part of the traditional dish, I start having some feelings. We ordered take out close to their opening weekend and everything seemed just a little off. I'm willing to give them another chance in the future, but as for now, I'll continue to make a further trip out from Minooka to get Mexican food. This is a pass for now. read more

Service : Great... Very attentive. Seemed like all the wait staff helped each other. Food: So-so. Salsa bland. Tacos: OK, but onions had to much of a bitter taste... Had to scrape much off. Enchiladas : OK... But too much crap on top... Shredded lettuce, sour cream, tomato.... Too, too much... All on top. Put it on the side!! Plus : All sides are extra.... Beans, rice, whatever had to be added to dish at additional charge. Never been to a Mexican restaurant where this was done. This is NOT one of the best Mexican restaurants I've ever been to, so just a three star rating. Not sure I'd be back... read more

I feel like I was extremely lucky to find this place while on the road. My wife had Chicken Sinaloa and I had Fajabo. Both were amazing. My children had enchiladas which were as expected. I think this is the kind of place to get the house specialties to have the best experience. read more
