Pretty good place to go to especially later on at night when other stores are closed to do your last minute grocery shopping. This store sells a variety of things such as produce, refrigerated goods, cat/dog food, around the home items, pots/pans laundry and shower items, alcohol/liquor, and of course a variety of meat (its a carnicería after all). There’s also a restaurant that happens to be connected to the store, the food served is also very good as well. Overall really good place to eat and shop at the same time if in the area or for last minute items.
The best gorditas hands down in little village . No longer live in the area but worth the drive . Staff is extremely friendly and welcoming . Great atmosphere very clean . We ordered the carne asada tacos and gorditas great quality meat ! Everything is made fresh daily ! They areAssociated with another Aguas Calientes on Cicero. But this location is the best and I believe the original 10/10 5 stars .
I order the pozole and it was so think it was nasty the gorditas were good but service wasn’t that great won’t come again
Disappointed is an understatement. Someone hit my car in their lot. Granted not their fault, but proceeded to tell me their video cameras don't work, while I'm looking at my crashed car on the giant monitor above the checkout counter. Aside from that food was OK, my steak torta was more of a lettuce torta. Needless to say I likely won't be returning.
Dang this place is definitely not the same place i grew up around. I was so dissapointed.I invited the family, about 8 on a thursday evening, maybe 3 hours before closing. On average we ordered about 2 gorditas each. First the orders were wrong but simple mistakes. Then we recieved our food super fast.We ender up returning 5 gorditas since they were cold. The chicarron was super hot but My mom, trying to be nice , asked her to put those in the microwave.....Food was good but tasted like it had been sitting all day. When we went to pay at the register I looked back and noticed the very young guy trowing away the trash was behind the grill, I noticed all he was doing is putting the dough gorditas in the microwave and filling them with meat that was sitting in a metal bin on the grille. The steak was sitting in a huge one(since its probably popular) everything else in smaller ones. Explaining why the steak was cold.Its sad that this place went down like this. It may be an employee shortage issue, but still sad. I hope the other location isnt going through the same. If anything ill try it on my own.
Food is good but, always charge for an item we haven't order.
Food very tasty! Prices a little expensive!
I visit this place , to enjoyed but my food wasn't that good l ordered a tampiqueña midium and the cooked my meat over done sorry l will never comeback
Walking in it seems like its just a grocery store but as you walk your left about 10 steps there is an actual restaurant on the other side of the grocery store. I'd like to add that there is tvs hanging on the wall but the one above us was broken and my wife couldn't see what I was telling her about a video. To me first impressions are everything and a busted TV on a wall was not attractive, nevertheless food is fantastic.This place is a staple to Chicago when it comes to the handmade "gorditas". Tacos are fair price since the meat prices change looking at 3.50 for a decent size taco only comes with onion and cilantro any add-ons are extra, chips and salsa here is 2.00 its not included, gorditas a sopes are priced a bit more. The arracherra has a nice char to the meat very enjoyable. The drinks we had was a large freshly squeezed orange juice ask for a cup of ice because it is served with no Ice. And I had a hibiscus drink aka Jamica.We spent about 45 bucks tip is not included for waitstaff and there is no tip option on the card reader. When you are done you get the number for your table and walk up to the register. Waitstaff is attentive and always ask if you need anything that I love because there isn't many places with service like that any more.
Barbacoa tacos were definitely not Barbacoa and the al pastor was a total fail. However the Gorditas de Chile Verde were so so good and spicy. Tacos de lengua were very nicely cooked.
