I was in Crystal Lake and was looking for a place to get lunch. We ended up at Antojitos for…read moreauthentic Mexican food. The restaurant is not for inside dining so be prepared for ordering to go. I ordered enfrijoladas for $12. I've never had them and didn't know what to expect. The price was somewhat steep but the portion and weight was definitely hefty. The food was scrambled eggs layered with corn tortillas, beans, cheese, and sauce. I wasn't crazy about it but it is more my personal taste with corn tortillas. This happened to be a solid dish and I would recommend checking them out.

So if you're craving some good Mexican food. This is a spot to try for sure!…read more I got the Burrito La Fonda. Couldn't have asked for a yummier burrito. It's covered in cheese and your choice of red or green sauce. Or both. Of course you have a choice of meat..but it's lovely nice spot. Comfortable sitting but no sitting to dine in. Other than that, do check out this superb joint.. Thank you La Fonda!!!

The staff is always very friendly and the ambience is casual. The steak quesadillas are very good and ample for one person. The shrimp tacos with mango and the guacamole are outstanding! The blood orange margarita is good but I highly recommend the mango margarita, which is fresh and delicious. The only issue is the place is pretty small. Definitely come earlier. They also offer taco Tuesday. Buy two get one free. This is a must try restaurant when you are in the area with ample parking near Butcher on the Block. I will definitely be back!

Salsa and chips are extra ($7) - since one of us had nachos we passed on chips and salsa. 4 percent service fee for credit card. Lunch for two was about $45 and food was just OK. Service was fine. Ambiance is meh especially when the door opens and the Icey wind comes in. Haven't eaten here in about 6 years - may eat here again but not for a while. Better options available for cost.

( we also ordered a margarita before she disappeared and never received it) she proceeded to raise her voice saying she never has an attitude and that she loves her job. maybe she should start showing it. we've come in many many times and she has by far made our thoughts on this restaurant poor

The food is awesome and all of the sauces and even the chorizo is made in house. I'm sure there are other items that are homemade as well, but we haven't gotten there yet. :) We shared a Suizo Burrito (homemade suizo sauce) with steak and it was incredible. It is not an exaggeration for me to say that this is my favorite suizo sauce ever. The density of the sauce isn't runny like most others and the texture is almost that of chili (but not too thick), which means a solid flavor with every bite. We also loved the homemade guacamole and horchata, which is unlimited refills! We had long conversations with the owners and employees and they were super kind and loved sharing all the unique elements of their restaurant. We'll definitely be back soon!
