El Mariachi Tequila Bar & Grill

“El Mariachi is in a Class of its owns. Not just for the Neighborhood it is some of the Best Mexican Food in Chicago. From the “Double Crunch” chips that we always ask for Seconds on to their Generously poured and well balanced Margaritas to many menu staples that are classic but also Very thoughtfully and freshly made. The service is always thoughtful and friendly as well. We will be dining here for years to come… Roberto the GM always makes our experience special! Highly recommend this place.”

“One of my favorite places for happy hour margaritas and appetizers. The patio is great in the summer. Service there is always kind and attentive.”

“Everything came out sizzling, fresh, and packed with flavor. The steak fajitas were the standout perfectly cooked, super tender, and loaded with peppers and onions. And that melted cheese on . You could hear it still sizzling when it hit the table. The sides did not disappoint either the rice was flavorful (not dry like a lot of places), and the beans + tortilla combo tied everything together perfectly. And let’s talk about the margarita 🍹 refreshing, and actually tasted like a legit cocktail not just sugary mix. Salted rim, fresh citrus, and it paired perfectly with the meal. Vibe-wise, it’s exactly what you want casual, lively, and the kind of place you can sit, eat, and actually enjoy your time. No complaints here. Great portions, great flavor, great drinks. This is an easy go-to spot if you’re craving solid Mexican food done right.”

“They have stepped it up!!! I used to come here weekly when I lived a couple blocks away. Came with a group for my birthday and wow! The menu is better, the plating, and quality is better. For a very busy brunch they kept things moving. $20 bottomless mimosas is worth it. I will be back more often even if it’s out of my way.”

“Loved our time here! The drinks and food were delicious. Definitely enjoy the patio if you can! My taco salad was full of the flavors I love. Husband’s shrimp and pollo was his favorite dish. Daughter’s vegetarian poblano burrito was all she’d hoped for and gave her lunch for the next day. My blackberry margarita was amaaazing, husband’s avacado mango margarita was out of this world. Then we had a happy hour sangria that was made from scratch - not too sweet and balanced with spices that made it perfect.”
