Delicious margaritas - and - the quesabirria tacos? Oh my goodness - I can't get enough. SOOOO delicious. We were there with three adults and one toddler. Two of us devoured the quesabirria and could not stop raving about how delicious they were. Rick enjoyed a burrito - and the chips and salsa kept the ten month old in our party very happy. Will definitely be back on our next trip to Murphysboro. And while I love to try different dishes - the memory of that quesabirria taco has me salivating. Ohhhh - so good!

We had just got off the lake and wanted some good food and it was not worth our time or money:(

Smoky meat, AMAZING food!! Incredible prices, outstanding service- Yelpers, come check this place…read moreout!!!! Ok this food deserves more detail. I have developed a FETISH for Tijuana-style food. This place offers authentic, Tj- style food. For instance, the onions and cilantro on the soft tacos, strips of steak and the taco shells doubled up for safety, and I am drooling as I write about it, anyhoo! The onions, which I despise as a species but LOVE in this one particular setting, are absolutely not the garbage sold in the produce dept of American grocery stores. These are not obnoxious and overbearing, they blend so well with the spices, the cilantro and the smoky meat and the entire TJ steak taco experience. Someone could organize a religion around this one menu item. You owe it to yourself to come here and get these babies; I dont know what they are called. Just look on the 'specials' menu for the picture of TJ style tacos, with onions and cilantro and be born again into the religious experience you'll have inhaling these lil guys. Super cheap, too!! Wow I love this place!! I'm adding this place to the address book on my GPS, hearting it on Google maps and I'd advise you to do the same!

She took care of the entire store and restaurant all by herself. The restaurant is very tiny, but the food is delish. The restaurant was empty when I arrived at 1pm. She put on the Mexican music when I arrive. Service is fast. The owner explained the menu and provided good recommendations. I tried 4 tacos of different meat: birria, lengua, steak and carnitas. All are served with onions and lime. I love birria and lengua the most, followed by carnitas. I picked an authentic Mexican soda from their fridge. I love all the drink options available.

However in the back there's a dining area. They make tacos and tortas. After looking around a bit we found where to order at. It's got a window in the back. There's a small menu of a few authentic Mexican items and the choices of protein. Mostly it's tacos of course. These are pretty easy to make. It's $4 each. Protein choices include beef, chicken, or get beans and vegetables. Got us a couple of tacos with the beans. These were topped with cilantro and onions. Small but full of flavor. The store has drinks such as Jarritos, and you can get big ass cans of beans so you can make tacos for later. Good place to get authentic Mexican food. It's located on West Jackson Street at Illinois Avenue in a building that looks unassuming from outside. There's taqueria is located in the back, and you order at the window.

Lots of sauces and cheese, but it all kind of tasted the same after a while. Maybe some of the other options would be better, but this is all I have to go one. Would probably go to Chipotle instead.
