“ I don't know why this place has such a low rating. The service was outstanding and the food was some of the best we have had in San Juan. It was also very fast which matters because we were super hungry. The sangria was too sweet for me. Thenambience is terrific and they were playing classic jazz which is what drew me in. ”
“ Im not sure when or how I bookmarked them, but I'm glad I did! My tacos were tasty . We stopped by for lunch to go at 1pm after the main lunch crowd. The cashier was nice and friendly. We ordered tacos and a burrito and everything came out fresh and hot. The steak meat was grade A- lol. The veggies were fresh... The steak tacos were $4.25 each. IT WAS GOOD. I will come back and refer! ”

“ So far, on the South Side of Chicago, you have Mexican restaurants that are at most, ok. They have the usual menu items that, of course, have to be awesome for me to go to. El Asador does have typical dishes, of course, but what they make is seriously delicious. Authentic 100%, and they take pride in what they produce. I like that, and I appreciate the fact that they don't skimp on portion. Of course, it's enough for one, and you may have leftovers, but more than likely, you won't. I love the tacos de lengua as they are not only super tender but have the best tasting spices added. The food is very rarely greasy, and I love how they present it also. Even in take out, it's dressed up well. The cashier is as sweet as can be, and they take pride in how they present the foods. Although they do have an outdoor section, it would be nice if they put up heaters so that we can still visit during colder months. Oh, and did I say that for a South side restaurant, they allow our chihuahuas. And are quite pleased when we bring them in as they are making it easier to love coming in. But the foods are fresh and beyond authentic. That's always the reason to come back. ”
“ The food is delicious! Hot and fresh! Service falls a bit behind but that's due to it being so busy. But super friendly and welcoming. The menu is easy to read and the pictures help. The vibe is great for family and friends. ”
“ Probably the best carne asada taco I've ever had. The flavor and succulence of the meat is unparalleled to any other Mexican restaurant I've ever been to. I'm also blown away by the quality of quesabirria tacos here w/ consomé. Delectable and affordable! Highly recommend this restaurant for new Chicago residents as well as existing ones that haven't been around town. The meat in the carne asada is a bit tough and chewy at times but the delicious flavor overcomes that minor shortcomi Bonus: the green pepper sauce offered here is the best ever!!! Hard to believe that it's only made with oil and green peppers but it is divine. ”
