Senor Dylan's Cantina - Carpentersville

This restaurant is fantastic! It's some of the best Mexican food I've had in a long time. I absolutely love the unique twist on the Mexican tacos on the menu—they're delicious! The gaming experience is also top-notch, and I ended up bringing more money than I needed.

My wife and I have visited this restaurant several times, and we have to say, the chips are fantastic and the fire-roasted salsa is the best we've ever had. I've tried all the taco options, and each one is delicious. Plus, the margaritas are outstanding as well. I highly recommend giving Dylan's a try!

YOU BETTER CHECK YOUR TO-GO ORDER BEFORE LEAVING. I just ordered steak taco dinner, traditional as what they said, only onion cilantro with NO BEANS! Also steak burrito with NO BEANS! As you can see on the pictures, my order is overwhelmed by BEANS, you can?t even see any onion or cilantro. I got gout so although steak is bad for me, I?m staying away from beans. Also it doesn?t comes with sauce or anything, that?s unacceptable. I really used to like this place and also support local businesses, but I don?t know if I?ll go back again. I?m really disappointed this time.

I don?t usually review places, but this place has some of the best Mexican food I?ve ever had. I am in the middle of eating my el toro burrito, and it?s amazing. It?s perfectly spicy. Last week we had the build it yourself tacos, and the meat fell off the bone. All of their food tastes like it?s all made from scratch. Even their tortillas taste like their from scratch. Our orders are getting bigger and bigger, just because we want to try everything they have. I am definitely a weekly customer. Keep up the great food!!!

Ummm, not a cantina at all! I?m a bit picky with Mexican restaurants, but this doesn?t even qualify. The place was totally empty and was in need of some repairs and updating, but I took a chance on this place with a friend. They share a kitchen with Randall Road House, two places down on that strip mall. So when you order something, they ?run the food down.? Outside? That?s so weird!! They don?t even have a kitchen of their own! I tried to see if there was a bit of a redemptive part of this place and ordered a margarita...nope. Tasted like sugar water. And the chips and salsa (which were free) were beyond greasy and the salsa was jarred at best. Aldi would have better salsa than this! Just no all around. Don?t waste your time! You will be disappointed!
