I really enjoy trying different Mexican restaurants in this area, and found several I like to visit and have a tasty meal. I recently ordered takeout from Tres Caminos and was very unhappy with the food, service and condition of the restaurant. My chicken taco salad was dismal: the chicken was shredded and looked and tasted dry. It was a very small serving, and the bill was More than $12.00 - more than posted on the online menu. The other item, enchiladas verdes, was a tiny serving, only one enchilada, not three as listed on the online menu. Why so stingy?? The total bill was $48.00 - wrong price and way overcharged! No beverage, no side sauces, nada! The fellow at the counter offered no explanation, and quickly looked away. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The whole place was a mess - old and tired looking.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I notice that your place is popular And I'm surprised. It seems like folks have gotten use to mediocre food, high prices and rundown environment[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. It must be the margaritas... read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]I didn't think this place could get any better, but it has since they seem to have brightened it up and cleaned it more than when I was in last![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food took a little long to get to us, but it was delicious. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The vibes are casual and laid back and this is a great place to grab your favorite "Mexican" dishes![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Our very last stop on the way to the airport was to get dinner, as we had tight connections & knew we wouldn't be home until midnight. This was sorta on the way, rated well & usually we can get in and out quickly with Mexican food - already having an idea of what we're in the mood for. We also typically skip drinks or grab a beer, unless something really catches our eye - tajin, tamarind... yup, consider our eyes in captivity! That did mean half the bill was drinks & I've zero regrets on that. I can't speak on the tortillas, as I never opened them... I won't look now to see if they're house made. As it will break my heart if they are & i skipped them! The chicken was a bit over but not to the point of it being overly dry or tough. Flavors on point. The food was fast, fab & filling. The drinks delicious. They were in no hurry yo get us out as it took a while to get the bill & to pick it back up. I don't consider that to be a negative, as i hate feeling like I'm being pushed out the door. Easily 4 stars here. read more

We came on Cinco de Mayo; had a 20 minute wait. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The entire restaurant, both inside and outdoors, was very busy and noisy. It was so loud that I couldn't hear my hubby talk and I had to scream loudly for him to hear me.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Food was consistently delicious. Their sangria margaritas are the best I've ever had! Service was fair on their busy day of the year. read more

Went there with my parents on a Saturday at around five PM. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Atmosphere was pleasant albeit (increasingly) loud.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The service was great even as things got busier. Excellent drink selection, including a number of specialty cocktails. I have now twice ordered and highly enjoyed the Vampiro. Highly recommend the enchiladas verdes and steak nachos, also, and my father enjoyed his tacos. read more

Absolutely worst restaurant! They have a deal for 3 tacos for $5 & some change, I ordered a set of 4 meaning I should have gotten 12 tacos. Well, I got 4 in total and they gave me a refund of $8 when my order in total was over $50.. I DO NOT RECOMMEND read more

One of our favorites! [[HIGHLIGHT]]You can tell by the crowded parking lot that they're good but don't let that keep you away.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We have never had to wait long. The servers are always wonderful and everything arrives quickly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have a cute outdoor area - the traffic can get a little loud at busy times but that can't be helped.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We love this place and the food is always amazing. They have a lot of different margaritas that we are working our way through and have liked them all. read more

The best Tex-Mex in the area, the other location is just as good as this one, I just frequent this location more. They have a good balance of Tex and Mex, you can get real tacos here if you ask for them. I don't eat a lot of tex-mex but when I do I come here. read more

Nice. Service was appreciated because the servers were so kind. I had the chicken fajita dish. Good taste. But I think the guacamole was my favorite part of my meal. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambience was great for a dine in restaurant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] This was another return trip for us and we will keep rolling with them. Viva Tres Caminos! read more

If I could give them 0 stars I would. My family and I visited this place for lunch. We were told that they had a Tuesday special for 12oz lime margaritas for .99. We order our food and drinks, eat, then here comes the bill. Every other margarita on the bill is .99 the rest are regularly priced at $5.99. I ask the waiter why were only 3 margaritas listed at .99. He goes to get another employee that spoke better English and she come explain to us that the Tuesday special he provided was incorrect and it's buy any size margarita and a 12oz margarita for .99. We requested a manager. The manager told us he's sorry and he would let the waiter know but we still had to pay what was on the receipt because the waiter made a mistake. There is no way you think it's fair that your waiter makes a mistake and the customer has to pay for it. It was so many other ways that the situation could've been handled. I will never go back to this restaurant. 0/10 for this experience. read more

It's been awhile since we've been back to this place. Yesterday, we were there for the Cinco de Mayo celebration and boy....it was packed with customers! They have a patio for people who wants to enjoy a good weather like yesterday while eating their scrumptious meal. The food that we ordered was hands down AMAZING! So tasty and delicious! The waiters and waitresses was spot on! I was afraid that the food will be reduced in quality because of the high volume of customers inside, outside and waiting in line to get seated.....but they were great! Kudos to all the staff and employee because yesterday was a busy and special day and they delivered it and brought it like a well oiled machine! I would give them 10 stars if I can! We live just up the road from them and definitely one of our favorite spot! read more

THE BEST rice I have ever had at a Mexican restaurant. It is incredible! The lunch fajita mix was amazing as well, it's a large portion for lunch. Our waitress Betty was very attentive and prompt. The outside is not what you would expect the inside to look like. The bright fun festive colors make you want to stay and enjoy more than one margarita! I highly recommend and will be returning read more

Nice spot for Mexican food in the metro east. Service was good. I'd definitely go back. I had the chicken mole enchiladas enmoladas. They were very good. Friends with me opted for steak ranchero. They said it wasn't bad, but not great either. Thus the 4. read more

Have been a regular customer for past year. Very good food, margaritas and service, But they lost a loyal customer tonight. A man was smoking throughout his meal, 8' away on the patio. I finally approached and asked if he might stop as my wife is allergic, he said no...if you don't like it you can move. Manager backed him up saying it is allowed out on patio. Ruined our experience and will not be back. read more

Raised prices and cut down on portions. Wings are much smaller and priced higher. Perhaps no one will notice.

It was ok, services was good, I didn't feel like the food was anything special although it was not bad. It wasn't spicy at all, but it also wasn't any better than any other place. read more

Great service. Their food has amazing flavor. You will never leave hungry. And a must go if it's your birthday.

So we went to this restaurant and we asked for juevos con teriso. And we got it, it was a completely different meal. The taco had way too much cheese. We also ordered a chicken enchilada. The gave us a beef enchilada. read more

Short story: The food is amazing, the prices are fair, and the portions are satisfyingly huge. Long story: I've been coming to Tres Caminos for 4 years now, and it is by far my favorite Mexican restaurant. I've never been disappointed by anything I've ordered here. Price is always fair, portions are always more than fair ( I love my left overs), and the flavor is ridiculously good. At this point I trust that I could order by just closing my eyes and pointing at the menu. It's all good. The quality is really good and it is very reasonably priced for what you get. I get the Burrito California, which my group now calls the "Baby Burrito", because we have confirmed that it is in fact the size of a baby. It's so huge I get 4 meals out of it and I'm not exaggerating . Which is saying something because I'm not a light weight when it comes to food. Mango chipotle tacos, tacos locos, taco salad, nachos, and guac are amazing (just to name a few). Great Margaritas and they had me at Ski on tap. The servers are always great and they always take good care of us. It always looks packed, but I have never had to wait to be seated, because magic I guess. Blows my mind every time. I always think " wow they are packed! This is the time I have to wait to be seated.", but that's never the case. Highly recommend ! Ok, thank you for coming to my TEDTalk. read more

This is the best Mexican restaurant on the east side of the river. (Maybe on the west, but I don't get there that often.) Wed usually go for one of their lunch specials, but I have also tried a variety of dishes and have never had anything I haven't liked. read more

Tres Caminos serves up great Mexican food! I enjoyed the chips and salsa, beef enchiladas, and crunchy beef tacos. My wife loved the chimichanga and said it might be the best she has ever had. The service was prompt and friendly. I am glad they had a good kid's menu for our picky kids. We look forward to returning to Tres Caminos as it has now become of local favorite! read more

Great food. Love their molcajetes. Great service. You will be taken to Mexico when you walk inside.

I have heard nothing but great things about the service and food at this place and finally got to try it today. Let me say it did not disappoint! It was a Sunday lunch crowd so they were packed, but we got right in and seated. Chips and salsa hit the table just a few minutes after we sat down, The waiter took our drink order and was back with them taking our food order. The food came out surprisingly fast and it was hot and fresh and delicious. We did a build your own and I got a quesadilla and a tamale, While she got a tostada and a chimichanga. Even the rice and beans were wonderful. Can't wait to go back in the prices all right. read more

Excellent Mexican food, great place for kids because it's pretty loud in there. The fajita chimichanga or California burrito are my go-tos and they are always delicious! The last few times I have went, I was not impressed with the margaritas (we normally order the Cadillac). Other than that, good place for a quick dinner! read more

Wandered in on the way home from soccer at the recommendation of some friends. We were thoroughly impressed. Best Mexican family restaurant i have found on this side of the river. The interior is bright, new and clean. Decor is on theme without being hokey. Service right away was pleasant greeting us. We showed up at 5pm and there were no tables available! Were told 15 minute wait and that was accurate. Our server was extremely helpful navigating the menu. If I have a small compliant it's that the menu has everything. You will need help finding out what the favorites are. That being said everything we had was good so maybe it's not a huge issue. We started with queso dip and cheese for the kids (they loved it) and the fresh made chunky guacamole for us. It was excellent. Large chunks of avocado with good acid and a bit of heat. Table salsa was also good. Nice balance of acid and sweet (I can't stand it when they taste like sugared down tomato sauce). Mixed well with the queso the kids got. I got one of the specials, it came in a huge lava rock bowl. Think pork, steak and chicken fajita meats in a bowl with a spicy sauce over the top. Meats were cooked well, sauce added a lot of flavor and punch. My wife got a carnitas burrito which was excellent. I usually go to carnitas but my wife ordered first so i had to get something different! Very moist and tender. Sweetness of the meat offset by the verde sauce which was acidic and bright with a little heat the queso rounded out and added richness. Rice and beans on the side are standard fare. Kids got fresh fruit popsicles for dessert and were very impressed. All in all excellent place, give it a try. It's worth the drive. read more

Tres Caminos - Dinner with the family, first time here. - Mexican Near Me - Caseyville, Illinois

Went in on a Friday night at 9:00. They close at 10 but it was just the two of us. Without the time we sat waiting for the check we would have been done in 20 minutes with how quickly they rushed us... the server never smiled. Never asked us how the food was she actually never even created us. The queso fundido was cooked entirely too fast and the entire bottom layer was burnt cheese!!! I scooped the burnt cheese onto a plate and not ONE time dis the waitress ask to take the plate or what was wrong. Worst service I have ever had at this restaurant. All while the workers sat and ate and were loud and we were sat right by them! If they didn't want the kitchen open please do not seat anyone. A group came in after us at 9:30 pm so I sure hope they were treated well. read more

Ordered Tacos. Lots of Tacos. Beef, Steak, Chicken, Shrimp and Pork. Plus we ordered queso dip and a chille Relleno. All the tacos were good. The pork was VERY good and by far the favorite. Chille Relleno was very good and traditional. The queso was good but the chips sent with were stale and not good. That is really the reason for 4 and not 5 stars. Salsa is also complimentary and good. We will go back. read more

Amazing food. Always a great time with the family when we go. I eat too much and still have to take some to go. The soups are phenomenal.

Hands down the best Mexican food in this area! I have been here many times and every time our meals are amazing and consistent. I have found with many Mexican restaurants you order a plate one time, then go back a few weeks later and order the same meal and it's prepared totally different. Not here. They have there recipes down pat! read more

Good variety of good food. You can get typical American mexican food with a few more authentic options too. Very friendly every time we have been there. read more

Great food and service! Always fast. Waitresses are very kind! Will definitely be going back soon!

We frequent this restaurant quite regularly the service is fast and friendly and the food arrives in a timely manner we got takeout tonight and I had taquitos Mexicana. They were crispy tasteful and loved the salad they were absolutely fabulous. I recommend adding a drop of Cholula read more

As newer residents to the Metro East, we've been eating our way through all the local Mexican joints, trying to find our "place". Despite all the recommendations, overall we weren't that impressed. I ordered the Birria Tacos -- which I was pleasantly surprised to find on the menu -- and my husband ordered the chimichanga. Trying out the fried foods is a good way to tell if the grease gets changed out regularly. It was not... It reflected in their chips as well, which were paired alongside a rather sorry excuse for salsa. Overall the service was great and the food just hit past edible. Of all the Mexican joints we've tried in the area, this one hits on the bottom of the list. read more
