Reviews for La Mejikana in Chicago, IL
I don't really write reviews, but this restaurant has really outdid themselves on food and service. I had the seviche de pescado... and my boyfriend had the tampiqueña. Excellent choices and outstanding taste. ???? ???? Read more
In terms of food, it is just OK. The octopus is a treat unto itself, but the tacos are just OK. Same for the salsa and chips.... Service is good. Read more
Best mezcal margaritas in Chicago. Try mango, tamarindo and pepino. The burger is 10/10. The tacos are 10/10, I recommend Asada,... Fish and Pollo Adobado. I had their stuffed pineapple once and it was also good. Read more
This spot is a Pilsen gem! Went in on a Sunday and they were serving regular lunch. We were seated right away and it wasn?t too... busy around 1pm. I tried a trio of taquitos which are mini tacos - shrimp, ribeye and Al pastor. We also tried the chorizo questfundido which was tasty. I didn?t enjoy the peppers on top but just removed them and kept smashing ????. The star of the showwas the coconut margarita. PERFECTO!! Overall, everything was delicious. I also loved seeing a woman cook in the back. Can?twait to go back! Read more
What a great experience! Shoutout to the bartenders who had such a positive attitude and amazing skills prepping those drinks!... From customer service to quality , everything was there. They have a DJ in house and the mixes were so much fun! Great spot tograb some drinks and maybe dance a little. Read more
My wife and I made our debut at this trendy place for a Friday night dinner after reading some reviews and checking out their... online profile. As we walked up to the restaurant, we were greeted by a hostess that was warm an welcoming. She promptlyescorted us to our table and we immediately noticed the vibe and the music in the place. It was upbeat and had a magneticappeal. We started with a couple drinks as I ordered the el churrito and an horchata for my wife. The drinks were verygood. For dinner, I had the cemitas de carne asada and shrimp empanadas. My wife had a huaraches de rajas de queso and an eloteMexicano. The food was all delicious and we had a great time overall. We will be back to try more menu items. Read more
Weekend experience. Dine in they were definitely busy for dinner, wait time 45minutes approximately, but definitely worth the... wait. Once we received dinner and drinks we were good. Dj plays which is a plus, but you might end up standing if you show upafter 9pm, gets crowded with limited seat availability. Read more
Very small cozy restaurant. I dont believe there were reservations, so I would suggest weekdays for seating and parking. This... place probably gets pretty busy on the weekends. Read more
