“ Love this restaurant. This Mexican food almost taste as good as the authentic Mexican food from Juarez, Mexico. We went here for dinner on 22 February 2024 on our last leg home of vacation. I was amazed of how tasty the food was. I had the 3 carnita tacos with refried beans. Bought me back to my memories of visiting Mexico. The atmosphere was warm. Staff was awesome! Restaurant was clean prices were cheap.All in all this will be my go to Mexican restaurant on my way to Chicago or on my way back home. Thanks El Cantarito MC. This, Army veteran was very full and pleased with the quality and quantity of food. Your service was excellent. I will be back Just a suggestion: maybe add verde( green sauce as a choice besides red sauce). ”
“ Staying in the neighborhood we looked for something different than burgers and fries and it was the perfect choice. The restaurant was packed as it was Saturday evening, but we were seated quickly and I admire how hardworking and quick the staff was. The food was fresh, tasty and seemingly without weird additions and unnecessary fat or sugar. Good and simple. ”
