Ate lunch here with three friends, midweek about 12:30 PM, most of the tables were filled. Had a…read morehard time deciding what to order, as did, my companions. Each person with their own finicky interests found something. All of us loved our meals: Tacos, chicken and beef stews and chili rellenos. The service was quick and helpful. Really enjoyed ourselves. One person wished there had been an unsweetened iced tea available. Other than that, there was not a complaint about anything. Just really enjoyed your meal.

While driving back to the Twin Cities from Chicago a few weeks back we needed a place to stop for…read morelunch. I opened up Yelp and found this little taqueria in the cute downtown of Belvedere so we decided to stop here. The inside definitely makes you feel like you're at a family owned restaurant. It reminds me of all of the pizzerias I went to as a kid in New York. The staff are all incredibly friend and funny and were cracking jokes the whole time to our table. They offer a wide selection of Mexican specialties from some of the more common ones to some of the harder to find ones. Lately, I've been on a Gordita kick so I ordered the Gordita dinner. The rice and beans were so good, and the fresh tortillas, along with the beautiful meat inside were all perfect. I wasn't expecting to have such incredible Mexican in this part of the US, but I need to reassess my biased because this was fantastic. Highly recommend!

Only two other people in the building. They couldn't find my order. I have to drive home since I forgot my phone. I get back and show the girl who is speaking English the whole time. She calls another girl over in English. Then they start talking in Spanish to my face. So rude. She puts my order in and says 10 minutes. No apology. We get the tacos and ask for hot sauce to find out they have none. Annoyed we leave to get home and find out no limes either. Then hubby finds a hair in his taco. Not good. Could of been so much better

Found yet another locally owned Mexican restaurant in Belvidere. Gomez is actually pretty clean and…read morespacious compared to many others around it. It also has a pretty big menu. Actually impressive how much one can get. The prices are okay for portions. Coming here the first time we had assumptions about what it would be like of course. It's actually a lot better than expected. The thing is it still needs lots of improvement after several years. A lot of confusion about what got ordered. Pretty slow and took forever to get service. As with any of these places, there has to be alcohol. It's about $11 for a margarita. These come in a few flavors including peach. It's about $9 for the Vegan Burrito. We each got this and this is filled with avocado, beans, and other stuff. A lot of the menu is meaty. They have chips and guacamole for one of the few choices for vegetarians. A lot of authentic items. They even have tongue and tripe. Getting anything here is a chore. It's closed Mondays. There's not much to get for vegetarians.

From the moment I walked up, I was greeted with friendly, upbeat service that made me feel like a regular--even though it was my first visit. The menu is a dream--packed with mouthwatering options that are both creative and comforting. I ordered the Quesabirrias, and WOW. Every bite was bursting with flavor, cooked to perfection, and served piping hot. You can tell they use fresh, quality ingredients and put heart into every order. The consume was delish by itself!!! Even though there was a steady stream of customers (a clear sign of their popularity!), the team moved quickly and efficiently, never sacrificing kindness or attention to detail. Whether you're grabbing lunch on the go or treating yourself to something special, this food truck is an absolute must-visit. Delicious food, amazing service, and good vibes all around--what more could you want?

Certainly wasn't sure about this Mexican place in Belvidere. De Juan looked like it was pretty…read moresketchy even from the outside. It's at the end of a pretty crummy strip mall and that's saying nothing about the kinds of people. How bad would it be inside? Turns out not that bad to be honest: cheap looking but okay though. After thinking about it we went inside and got seats at the bar. It had a few others in there and it looked pretty okay. The menu is basic Mexican American stuff. It's about $7 for cocktails. Luna Azul is a blue margarita. This was an innocent looking but strong one though. As for the food, not bad. There's the basic types of stuff. It's about $11 for a burrito. The Vegetarian Burrito is among these. Very stuffed with onions, peppers, and whatever. Comes with a cheese sauce on it. The burrito without it is maybe even better it seems. Honestly it's a place that needs to be given a chance and not passed up just because of the sketchy area. It's for sure not authentic, but it's still mostly okay though. There's plenty of choices for meat eaters as well as vegetarians.

My friend loves the margaritas here and so we both got large ones and I upgraded tequilla but shouldn't have bothered. It's just a margarita, or I shoulda just got a shot. It's my opinion margaritas are kind eh, unless you really know how to make them super traditionally with lime, tequilla on lots of ice and salted rim. Anyway it wasn't bad, I'm just picky when it comes to mixed drinks. So I got the ground beef taco meal with rice and beans. It had some pretty runny "sauce" and the beans and rice were standard. I was ok with everything but not impressed quite frankly. Especially when the bill came. For taco meal, a margarita large it was $36 before tip. Making it in the forties with tip seems just kinda ridiculous. I know prices have gone up everywhere but geez. I probably won't make a trip to go again but overall just ok, except for prices. Friends looked good. Service was great anyway.

A lot of the familiar items. You can even get exotic things like tripe if you like it meaty. Found out about it while looking up the Mexican restaurants around here. It's certainly got lots of competition to be sure. There's shit tons of these. A pretty boring place inside. Really not much of an atmosphere with it actually pretty quiet. Has no alcohol. It's about $3 to get the Jamaica. This is a hibiscus beverage that's good stuff. As for the food it's mostly authentic. It's about $12 for the Taco Salad. Choose a meat or get it with toppings that include avocado, cheese, lettuce, onions, tomatoes, and more. The rest of the menu is meaty with animal parts such as tripe. Got a menu full of classics. It's located on North State Street at Old Beloit Road. There's a plaza behind the gas station and next to a laundromat that are things to look for because it's hard to find coming from wherever.
