There are lots of Mexican restaurants around Chicago, but this is one of the best. A few standouts:
– Very nice, attentive service.
– Absolutely wonderful outdoor patio during the summer, very fun casual vibe inside.
– BYOB
– Homemade, incredibly delicious hot sauce on every table.
– They have a little dog named Wrigley.
The food is fantastic, the atmosphere is fantastic, the service is fantastic, and it’s cheap. My only complaint is that more people don’t know about this place. It’s my favorite in the whole area, and it should be your neighborhood staple for dine in or carry out Mexican!

Nice little Mexican place. The interior is tasteful and was empty when i was there but it was still early in the morning that is probably why. The food came out fast and my burrito tasted quite good little too salty but it’s just my opinion. The only beef i have with the restaurant is they brought me a steak burrito instead of vegetarian like i asked. I’m not a vegetarian so i just ate it all good.

A good experience there. Good food, good people on staff. I ordered a steak and chorizo burrito. Tasted good. The sauce I put on there was just hot / spicy enough for me. I’m sure they have one if you don’t like spicy.

The staff was friendly and helpful. The food was made fresh. The dish servings are plentiful and delicious. They have some of the best Pico de Gallo and guacamole. I’ll definitely return for more food.

Decided to have chilaquiles with the green sauce. After many years of coming here I’m not sure if something changed but the chilaquiles were okay. They used to have the best chilaquiles in Chicago, in my opinion.
The chips with the pico de gallo are always a hit. One of my favorite parts of the meal is sitting down then the chips and sauces show up.
The service is always outstanding. Quick and efficient, friendly and accommodating.
If you read this far I recommend you check this place out. Sunday morning breakfast at El Presidente is a good time to go.

I’ve been to many Mexican Restaurants and this is in my opinion one of the best I’ve been to. The food is amazing, delicious and perfectly presented. Generally delicious Mexican cuisine. The service is also nice. I’ll definitely visit here again when I’m in the area.

I have been coming here for years. The chips and Pico de Gallo are fantastic. We always start with the nachos. The food is fresh and made with love. The outdoor patio is beautiful. We also recommend the carnitas and pozole.

The food is great. If you like nachos, this place is for you. This place has been here for years. The building is for sale, so go now. The atmosphere is not great, but the food makes up for it.
