We got a late start for dinner and came in 50 minutes before closing. We were met with smiling faces and a clean, beautiful restaurant. Our server was top-notch, and he was happy to make suggestions for what we were looking to order. The food was brought out in record time – hot and delicious! Our server was very tentative, and everything was just perfect! Thank you for bringing your great restaurant to Altamont!

Amazing sums it up. The atmosphere was wonderful, bright and colorful Mexican artwork engulf you. The service was prompt and friendly. The tamales were unbelievable, some of the best I have ever had. The molé on them was perfect, and molé done well is hard to find. I ate every bit of sauce off of my plate with the warm soft flour tortillas. The hot, thick, and fresh corn tortilla chips and fresh salsa were delightful, and a nice crunch with my soft and warm entrée. The chili verde would make your abuela weep with joy. No need for a knife, the steak just melted into the verde sauce. The tomatoes still were firm enough and were a delight to bite into in-between the copious amounts of steak. Even the rice was pillowy, moist, and flavorful. There was nothing less than authentic, scratch food here. I am absolutely thrilled that we were fortuitous enough to land here on a cross-country road trip. There is no doubt in saying I will be visiting again.

Side note: The restaurant is next to a beautiful and quaint local park. A great spot to eat al fresco!

Waiter was polite. No complaints with waiter. Food however was not. Chips were stale. Requested new chip, received more stale chips. Salsa and Guacamole taste & looked like pour out of a jar. The meals were honestly just disappointing, flavorless. Husband said only good thing was the hot salsa he requested.

Very good Mexican food for being in Illinois. If you can’t stand tough onions, make sure to tell them to leave the onions off. That’s completely not a knock on them, I didn’t put my dentures in before I went in and the onions were a little tough. That’s absolutely my fault.

I am an avid lover of mexican cuisine. This was the very worst of all my experiences. From Pennsylvania to Colorado. I have eaten at mexican in every state in between. This was far and away the worst experience. My food was severely undercooked and the restaurant was severely understaffed. My family ended up throwing it all out and going to a place in Vandalia. I would recommend taco bell over this.

Absolutely worst experience ive had at a restaurant! We had a pretty large group for a birthday party but they only had 4 other people in the whole place. The waiter was so incredibly rude. He kept tapping his pen, rolling his eyes, and actually refused to take 2 of our orders.

This had to be the best Mexican restaurant we have ever been to. Our waiter was funny and accommodating. The decor was beautiful and the food was outstanding. I’ll give them 10 stars and we will definitely be back next time we’re in the area.

Ordered on phone to pickup at restaurant, had to search for a menu because you have to look at 3 different websites for it. To only get there not knowing the cost and it is no way near what the website, or to go menu says. Fajita and taco salad 28.75. WOW. Not anywhere near what I thought.

Stopped here on a whim while driving home to Ohio and had super delicious chilaquiles with chicken. The sauce was amazing and it was almost like getting fajitas but with awesome sauce and cheese on top. We also had tacos and chicken fajitas at our table, also very good, but everyone liked mine best. Fabio was our server and was super attentive, and explained the heating was out, but it was worth it to bundle up and stay cuz the food was great. He let us practice our Spanish with him too, era muy amable! Super cute, clean little place with lovely unique booths and chairs all done in artesania style. Un aplauso, ¡comida muy rica!
