6. La Rosita Mexican Foods
Reviewed By Laurie C
Name changed, but place seems the same. Tiny taqueria in the back is frequented mostly by the local Mexicans, but the menu is in both English and Spanish. Very consistant, nothing fancy, but always good. Watch as the food is prepped on the other side of the counter. Only a counter with 10 stools, we do take out. Tacos, burritos that come with beans and rice, gorditas, tortas. No ground beef here! Tamales are wonderful!
5. Chipotle Mexican Grill
Reviewed By CarryOnTravl
Oct 25, 2014: Wow, smallest Chipotle's we've ever been inside, with about 40 seats. Very friendly staff behind the counter and quick service. The customer space was sparkling clean and bright. Would recommend this to anyone wanting to stop by, outside of "prime" lunch hours. It would probably be tough to find a seat during a busy lunch service.

4. Taco & Burrito Express
Reviewed By TravelBuddy0406
Taco & Burrito Express is a good place to get "authentic" Mexican Food! The food is really good and reasonably priced. If you don't want to sit in the dining area (plastic booths), then take the food "to go". Either way - the food is what you come for here.

We usually order from the Two for Twenty menu, chips and salsa appetizer and two fajita dinners and it's always good. The service is very good, we always get seated quickly and we always seem to get a very good waitress. The food comes out quick, hot and always correct. We can definitely recommend this place.

We thought we would try this place out mainly to check out the train memorabilia. As we enter, we are seated by a friendly hostess who brings us chips and salsa, as well as something to drink. We look at the menus, but my mind is still wandering all over the restaurant checking out the train stuff. Eventually, I ordered. I went with the stuffed crab in a shell meal. It was good food for me. The hubby had fajitas. The fajitas were actually asada meat, not a substitute like some places do it. Hubby liked it. People actually catch the Metra train from the nearby platform. Just all around cool to have a Mexican restaurant in a train depot. The place had bathrooms. Kids would like it here. I recommend it mainly for the train atmosphere, but the food is not bad and I would come back again.

The Real Deal. Worth seeking out: located in the same strip shopping center as Jewel/Osco. Absolutely fantastic Mexican food. Tremendous variety in the menu, and excellent service. Delicious. Authentic. Eat in or take out. Credit cards accepted. Plenty of parking. Highly recommend.
