Food is great and fresh and the handmade tortillas make everything better. Best buffet I’ve ever been to.

(Translated by Google) The concept of a Mexican buffet fascinated me, as it's not something you see every day. The owner, Patty, greeted us with a smile, great humor, and incredibly friendly customer service. The food was delicious, perfectly seasoned, and the spice level was just right. Handmade tortillas, champurrado (only available during the winter season), and reasonable prices—what more could you ask for? Unfortunately, I don't live in Chicago, but when I return, I'll definitely go back to Patty's restaurant. Greetings from Paris 👋🏽 and thank you for a wonderful experience. (Original) El concepto de un buffet mexicana me fascinó, ya que no es algo muy común. La dueño se llama Patty, nos recibió con una sonrisa, buen humor, y un servicio al cliente increíblemente amable. La comida riquísima, buen sazón y el nivel de picante estaba al punto. Tortillas hechas a mano, champurrado (solo el temporada de invierno), precio razonable, ¿qué más se puede pedir? Lamentablemente no vivo en Chicago pero cuando vuelva, sin duda regresaré al restaurante de Patty. Saludos desde París 👋🏽 y gracias por una experiencia maravillosa.

Such an amazing buffet. All home made and delicious. Even the tortillas are hand made. About 20 bucks a person. Its such a good value.
