Plus some pico and guacamole on the side to help with the pure decadence of the tamales. The family that runs the restaurant is so nice. The owner came out with a mug of noodle soup to try.

The corn ribs were in a chipotle mayo sauce but the corn itself was limey and has food texture. The flautas, ramen, and tacos were super flavorful - the birria is smoky and rich. The birria bomb was a surprise - basically a giant arrancini full of rice, cheese, and birria that went really well with the consome. Definitely coming back.

I came for lunch with my daughter, it was mid afternoon. I saw a man behind the counter who came…read moreout to greet us, and I asked him,"Are you Julio?" he said yes, so I told him about his good reviews on Yelp. This was on a day with single digit temps so we were the only customers. The decor of the place was bright, cheerful and inviting. There were maybe 20-25 tables and a small bar in the back. They were located right on the main shopping area in Round Lake Park. My daughter ordered a fancy strawberry margarita which came piled high with pink Strawberry frozen mush in a salted frosted glass . She said it was delicious. We both ordered taco dinners with a variety of meats and shrimp tacos and they came with beans and rice, everything delicious and done perfectly. Julio checked with us if we wanted cilantro in our tacos and we both said yes. The tortillas were double, soft and made just right as were the ingredients. We sat for a long time eating and visiting, and had a lovely time. Couldn't have been better! The bill was about $40 before the tip. We'll be back. This place was only a mile or so from where I live so it is very convenient and easy to find with their bright yellow storefront. We were able to park right in front of the door.

While waiting a long time for the two tacos to be made, we were given a complimentary basket of chips and salsa. I thought the chips tasted great, but something in the salsa was over-powering. The steak tacos arrived at our table with a side of beans and rice. The tacos and beans were bland, and the rice was mushy. Margaritas were average. Service: Okay. The restaurant had few people visiting when we dined in so we were seated promptly. A guy would often come around and ask if everything was okay. I did think the wait for just two tacos was a bit long. Value: * Food & Drinks: Approx $20 - $35 per person *Cocktails range between $11-15 per drink. Ambiance: Interior of restaurant is very colorful. Flat screen tvs in some areas. Music may be playing. Location: Inside the Gurnee Mills mall; 6170 W Grand Avenue, Gurnee, IL 60031

We often order the food for take out because with a little it's just more convenient. Even when we take it home, the food is still fresh and piping hot. For the tacos, they put the limes, onions and cilantro on the side. Sometimes they skimp on toppings at restaurants, but they definitely don't here.
