    a plate of food
    Juliana R.

    OUTSTANDING! We stopped buy for some groceries after a doctors appointment (we live one hour away) and we are glad that we did! Service was awesome, the beans were very flavorful, also the rice , not a single bite was bad! Red hot sauce is a man up sauce and I loved!! Before we left I went to the cheff and asked if he was the owner , because I work as a server at a restaurant and that kind of food is when the owner is cooking .... I didn't get his name , but if you own this business, please appreciate your dedicated employees, they are doing and amazing job and make people that live one hour away consider the drive just to eat that again ! #loveyourbeans

    As someone who lived in a Mexico for over a year I can honestly say these may be some of the best street tacos I've had anywhere in America. Simple street tacos and two awesome sauces with good heat.

    The food is pretty good. Can be slow at times but the place always seems to be busy which is good. Lots of options at the store.

It won't be your favorite place but a safe bet when you and your friends can't decide where to go. Service (B+) Staff is well trained and they bring the food out to you in a fairly timely manner. Nothing exceptional, nothing disappointing. Quality (B+) The food was not great and it was not bad. I got the steak fajitas and was disappointed with the lack of steak and small portion size. For the amount I paid I was expecting more. Will post pic and you can decide. The family got a mix of tacos. The kiddos like the beef tacos and my wife got a few veggie ones. They liked them but nothing memorable. We were not super hungry and went for an early dinner since it was a school night but finished all the food. I did enjoy the chips and salsa and I liked the beans. I wouldn't go back specifically for them but I would enjoy if I ever go again. Value (B) It was around $100 out the door for 4 people which I thought was a bit expensive. We did get a dessert but no appetizers. It feels like a soulless Mexican concept in downtown Naperville. Yes all the staff is trained and yes the food is not bad. But nothing memorable, just checking the boxes. I probably won't go again but won't object if we decide to go. You won't be impressed but you probably won't be disappointed. There are so many other places I can think of to go for Mexican over this place. If it was cheaper it would be nice - but it is priced too high for the quality and quantity of food. If you have never had Mexican food - this would be a good starter restaurant

    Looooove this place!! If you are looking for a hole in the wall, no frills, authentic Mexican…read morerestaurant...then this is not the place for you. Quiubo has fantastic margaritas (some of the best I've ever had) and cocktails. No artificial flavors or syrups are used so they're fresh and delicious every single time. They don't use margarita glasses, which I prefer, since places that do use them typically have bad and overly citrusy/sweet margs. Their bartending staff is limited since the bar space is a little small so drinks can take a while but it doesn't bother me since the drinks are amazing and worth the wait in my opinion. The food is pricey and the portions small, but this is a fancier/gourmet Mexican restaurant. You're paying for the quality ingredients. Aside from the price, the food itself is really good. Even though this place has "fancier" Mexican food, all of it is authentic and delicious. But, like I mentioned earlier, if you want no frills Mexican food, this is not the place for you. I come here at least once a month and am never disappointed! Pricing is on par with Chicago restaurants of this caliber which is the trend Naperville is heading towards so take that into consideration if you're trying to find somewhere cheap to eat.

    We were sat down immediately and our waitress came and greeted us. She was very lively, lovely and…read moreattentive. The place was very nice and aesthetically pleasing to the eyes. I got the pastor tacos, esquites and the fresona. The fresona was pretty tasty, my date said it was a bit strong, I personally thought it was fine. The esquites were pretty tasty as well but a tad bit salty. The pastor tacos were also pretty good but I was kinda let down, usually pastor tacos are made with a fatty pork meat not ground pork. Also the meat mixture had a similar texture to chili, which was weird. However, they still tasted good. My date enjoyed his food and while it was pretty good it wasn't anything to rave about 3.75/5.

    Let me start by saying this is the best dining experience in 2026 for me so far. Our attendant,…read moreMaria, was fantastic. She was very attentive and recommended some really good dishes. The venue was very nice at the top of a hotel with a very nice view of Naperville and the Riverwalk. Let's start with my favorite dishes. The mahi mahi ceviche, braised beef, and octopus dish was fantastic. The braised beef was cooked perfectly, ceviche was popping with flavor and the octopus was very fresh. We did get the skirt steak and branzino. The skirt steak was a little bit overcooked to my liking. The Branzino was perfectly cooked and crispy but the portion was small.. But the best thing was that dessert. We had some type of pudding cake that was soaked in eggnog with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on it. It was fantastic. Best dessert in a long time. Definitely will be hitting this place up again

Not one miss. The empanadas were perfectly crisp and packed with flavor, the shrimp tacos were fresh and balanced, the hanger steak was cooked exactly right, and the pork shank was fall-apart tender and easily one of the best dishes we've had in a long time. The cocktails were just as good as the food, which says a lot. You can tell there's real attention to detail across the whole menu. On top of that, the space itself is beautiful. Really unique interior, great atmosphere, and an awesome view right over the river that makes the whole experience feel even more special. It's rare to go somewhere where the food, drinks, and atmosphere all hit this level. Santa Cielo absolutely delivered. One of the best dining experiences we've had in the suburbs and we'll definitely be back.

Our party of 3 was pretty hungry after an evening of outdoor music, so we each ordered a torta--one steak, one chicken, and one chorizo. We were surprised the specialty drinks (horchata, agua de Jamaica) were also self serve. Please keep in mind that we were there with less than an hour to close, so we understood why the horchata wasn't refilled. The chips were a little stale, but the guacamole had good flavor and good consistency. The tortas had enough meat on each of them, the bread was toasted to perfection, and the flavors of each meat were delicious. There were enough toppings, but collectively, we wished there was avocado on the sandwich. Overall, we appreciated them being open, appreciated the cleanliness, and were satisfied with the sandwiches. We would eat there again if we were in the area!

The server was semi knowledgeable regarding the menu however, he did not know as much as the kitchen. For example, he thought the chips were made in a shared fryer however, I was able to learn that they have a dedicated gluten-free fryer that they use for their chips and you can request other fried items to be done separately. This is definitely a place that people should try !!
