ISC Chicago

Potato wedges are a great choice for these carne asada fries , possessing the structural integrity to stand easily with the beef , refried beans , and other toppings. Great drunk food!

ISC Chicago

Some of the best wings we've ever had: cooked perfectly, sweet but not too sweet, perfectly sauced

Dulce A.

You can't go wrong with trying a bit of everything. All time fav: mango chicken enchiladas . Also love the Bandera sampler. Dope art and music but definitely reserve a spot on the weekends.

Chicago Tribune

All entrees come with your choice of one equally appetizing starter: pozole (spicy chicken soup ), bean dip , seasoned fries , sweet potato fries or goat cheese salad Read more

Mike

Pozole was on point. Their spicy salsa is also delicious - a twist on classic pico de gallo . Unfortunately, the tamales and enchiladas were both underwhelming. Also this place is not BYOB anymore.

Carl Lee

Try the Taffy Apple Empanada - Delicious! Best eaten warm, right when it's brought out. Just the right amount of Apple, super sweet ice cream !

Chicago Tribune

The $10 traditional spicy pork tamales are hot, fresh and slathered with salsa verde , Muenster cheese , chives , tomatoes and sour cream . Read more

ISC Chicago

Order the green tea horchata with the el Diabolito shrimp . The burn of the shrimp is brutal, but that tasty rice milk helps.

Erin Green

All of the empanadas were delicious and the service was great, definitely try the mango martini .

ISC Chicago

Creative dishes with flavor combinations that blend together perfectly! Really excellent service!

Carl Lee

Try the Pozole - Super tasty, just the right touch of spice for a kick. Some added salt, but I think it was the right blend.

ISC Chicago

el Diablito Camarones : nice burn with good flavor

Carl Lee

Try the El Apache Burrito - Really do love this combination of food, marinated steak , and that verde sauce !!

Guacamole has pomegranate on it! Arbol sauce is good enough to eat with a spoon - holy móle !

Carl Lee

Try the Pozole - Almost always order this as a side, add a little lime (for me), perfect!

Carl Lee

Try the La Garza Fries - Fries were super crispy , wonder combination of flavors! Definitely order again!

Carl Lee

Try the Taffy Apple Empanada - Absolutely delicious again, I'll keep ordering this every time I'm here!

Joanna Kalinowska

Sweet potato fries and holly quacamole appetizers are both delicious.

Try the La Sirena Ceviche - Love it, every time. We order at every visit!

Angela Vaughn

Eat the Spicy chicken tortilla soup , mango gaucamole, 3 sample tamales (pork , corn , spinach ), mango salsa chicken enchilada & buritto

Matt Dimmer

Goat cheese quesadilla , cevice, empanadas , enchiladas . Get one of everything. Amazing and affordable .

Guacamole with season fruit - when it's pomegranate it's tops.
