The place definitely has a worn-in feel. The bathroom could use some attention, and a few of the booth seats are ripped—just small things that could use a refresh. That said, the atmosphere feels like your typical middle-class Mexican restaurant: homey, casual, and relaxed.
They start you off with chips and salsa, and they actually use some nice, dense wheat tortillas that feel a bit more authentic than your usual fare. It’s a nice touch.
We ordered a sope, a couple of tostadas, and some steak tacos. Presentation across the board was solid, and more importantly, everything tasted great. The flavors were on point, and you can tell it’s good traditional Mexican food—especially when you see local Mexican families dining here too.
Service was friendly and attentive, and there was Mexican music playing in the background that added to the vibe.
Overall, it’s a solid spot with tasty food and welcoming people. If they put a little effort into maintaining the space—especially the bathrooms and seating—it would really elevate the whole experience. Still, it’s worth a visit for the food and the warm service.
My husband and I order take out from here often! We don’t wait super long – we go, and order and are usually leaving in 10-15 minutes or less. Their coconut treats at the counter are so good! Also their rice drink and the red tea! I forget the names of both Highly recommend this restaurant! They have booths and tables .
I have past this restaurant a million times and I’m kicking myself for not walking in sooner. Delicious!
Atmosphere clean and simple, no blaring Norteño music.
Service was excellent, the servers always passed by to ask if all was well and if we needed anything.
The food is crazy good.
We had tacos, tacos quesa birria, chilaquiles with steak and horchata.
My kids never drink horchata because it’s either too sweet or too much cinnamon. This was a wonderful horchata experience. It was refreshing, more on the vanilla side like melted Mr.Softee.
Salsa is important to us. The kinds of chilis used and if they offer grilled fresh jalapeños.
Everything was spot on, the green salsa was fresh and mild that kids could eat it.
The red salsa served with chips was mild for the kids to enjoy but also for us adults to also enjoy.
The red salsa was off the hook, it was hot, spicy, clean, they burnt the chilis and allowed that smokiness to really sink in. It was wonderful.
Cost is also reasonable, tacos here are $2.90, tacos quesa birria are 4.50. The full plate of chilaquiles, steak, rice and beans was 14.50.
A full arachera, rice, beans, salad, and an enchilada is 21.50.
They are competing against 100’s of other restaurants and have managed to keep costs reasonable unlike some restaurants on Lake Street and Downtown Aurora who don’t show you prices or change prices whenever they feel like it.
I highly recommend Los Cuates, it’s worth the trek out to Aurora. I’m already planning to make a quick mid week stop here because I’m thinking of the tacos lol. Loved it!
At least the horchata was good
