Stopped in for dinner - recommended by my Dad. Did not disappoint. The portions were large, the food was fresh and the service was excellent. My husband ordered the steak fajitas special and I ordered the 3 taco dinner (chicken) and horchata (also a HUGE glass).All DELICIOUS. We will definitely be back to try the rest of their specials!

Do not be fooled that this hidden gem is located at a gas station! A group of us were randomly in the area and used google to look for a place to eat when we found Mr. Cesar’s restaurant. The food was some of the best Mexican food I’ve had! Mr. Cesar was super friendly even though we came in with a large group when they were near closing. We came back a second time on the way back from Rockford be

From the moment we arrived at the restaurant, our server was consistently polite. He inquired if we needed extra time to decide on our orders. The food exceeded expectations, and I appreciated the option to customize the spiciness of our meals. I chose gorditas and specifically requested a nopales gordita. Although it wasn’t listed on the menu, they prepared it for me. I also ordered Jamaica water

It's a nice hidden gem. Stop by on Saturday around 3pm. Food was delicious i got the taco dinner wife got the torta dinner. The meat was juicy and the torta was big, pre-covid big. Horchata was sweet not bland. Can't wait to go back and try something different. Maybe a molcajete or menudo. They have slots but in a separate room, which is nice and not in the open.

A janky looking restaurant with a gas station view. Based on that alone I would normally take a pass, but it got good reviews so I gave it a try and I was not disappointed. I got an al pastor burrito and it was a big stuffed delicious burrito. I would 100% eat here again. The meat was flavorful and well-cooked, the burrito was hefty and well stuffed with cheese and sour cream and lettuce and tomat
