Reviews for Hacienda Real in Yorkville, IL
Great flavor, excellent presentation. Best fajitas I?ve had for a while. Good value. Great decor and outside patio. Only reason... for the 4 stars is the music was terrible. Midday on a Sunday and club music didn?t go. Will come back though because the foodwas so good. All made fresh. Read more
Gourmet-style Mexican cuisine. The Enchiladas del Mar were excellent, and the flan was like a party on a plate. The house salsa... is outstanding, too. Glad I found this place in my travels. Read more
I have to say this is probably more of a mediocre Mexican style restaurant that I have been to in the area. The restaurant,... inside and out, were well done and updated. What bothered me was the food and the service. For the prices, some plates that mytable had gotten were small and didn't have much flavor to them. One member of my table also didn't get part of their meal rightaway. We were also ignored a bit while the larger party (who kept ordering drinks) got anything and everything they asked forright away. My meal wasn't too bad, but the fajita part of it soaked through the taco bowl, making it almost inedible. So Iwas a bit disappointed. Overall, not a terrible place, but I would try something else in the area first. Read more
Food was ok. Not really authentic Mexican taste. Rice does taste like from boxed rice. I got enchiladas and comes with rice and... zucchini which is not really a way of serving enchiladas. Kids burger just meat and bread no offer of cheese or anything else.It is over priced for the quality and amount of food. Overall I would rather go to another place to get real authentic Mexicanfood.

So let?s talk about the atmosphere?.So inviting and relaxed. Music was great and upbeat. O.M.G. the salsa, some of the... ingredients were fire roasted and it adds a great smokey flavor and it?s spicy which I love. I had Aros con pollo it was a verylarge portion packed with flavor and fresh ingredients. When they bring you the check it?s in this cute little box which I thinkis different but fun! My server Joselyn was very nice and accommodating. Overall I was very pleased with this restaurant. I willdefinitely visit here again before I leave the area. Read more

First time here, and everything tasted great! Our server was very attentive, wish I remembered the young lady?s name. She did... mentioned she worked there before and recently returned for the summer. I had the fashion mezcal, my wife had the margarita, andour friends had the cazuela and beers. I ate the arrachera, my friends had the fried pulpo, the mix molcajete, and camarones ala diabla, which they loved. They had a DJ who did a good job, but mostly played English music, wished he played Mexican musicsince it?s a considered a Mexican restaurant. Regardless, he did take our music request, and played some Spanish music for us.Overall, I would return and recommend this restaurant. Read more
Knowing that the owners of El Jefe, a restaurant that I've dined at many times and have always had a good experience at, owned... this restaurant, I went into this with a level of expectation. I am pleased to say that Hacienda Real has exceeded thatexpectation. Immediately evident was the service, which was some of the quickest and polished service I've experienced at arestaurant in a while. The atmosphere felt exotic, and for a moment I honestly forgot I was in Yorkville. But what took the cakefor me was the food. I ordered the Molcajete, and while very spicy, it was tasty and had many layers and flavors to it. My partywas similarly enthused with their meals as well. The guacamole trio appetizer was eclectic and full of diffrent tastes, all ofwhich were delectable. Overall, I had a great experience here and will definitely be back for more. Read more
