Reviews for El Cochino in Lake in the Hills, IL
Hands down the best food I've had in a long while. Great energy, service and most importantly food. Ordered the corn dish... appetizer along with each of the offered tacos. All are exceptional. Would recommend the pork, korean steak and fish as the bestof the tacos. Chips and salsa are also very good. Highly recommend Read more

We finally got to try El Cochino and it was everything I was hearing about! We went out for our anniversary and they made it... very special. Thank you for helping us celebrate! I had three different Tacos and each one was amazing. I think the fish tacowas our favorite. My wife got the Steak and Shrimp bowl. Everything was so fresh, ingredients, salsas, and sauces. Our food cameout really quickly and well presented. Of course we had drinks and those were just as good! We will be back this week to trymore! Read more

I never been here before until tonight. I called and the lady on the phone told me that it?s an hour wait for inside. This place... was packed with side by side people. She didn?t offer me to eat outside. I had no idea I even could. For what you pay for. Theportions can be bigger. Especially with the guacamole and margaritas. Read more
The tacos were amazing (Korean BBQ especially!). The esquites (Mexican corn) was to die forrr. I seriously could have eaten just... that and been happy. We also got the nachos which were great. The ambiance was hip and fun, the music was really good, andeveryone who worked there was truly having a good time. You could tell they loved their jobs. It was our first time there butwe?ll be back for more! Read more
