Tacos Los Desvelados Maywood

"Our server was very polite and attentive. The food is excellent! The micheladas are on point!"

"Food was good, service was ok, atmosphere was great. I would eat here again if I was close by, but wouldn't go out of my way for it."

"This is the "No Manches Naca" strawberry margarita accompanied by a carne asada "Suchi Roll". If you're in the area and want tasty, creative, Mexican food, strong drinks and loud Mexican music, this is a must visit spot!! ¡¡No se rajen!! BTW, there are families with kids here. So, there's no excuse to not visit."

"So my partner wanted to come here. I blame her for this. Still, I love her so I feel I must write this. She wanted to try this place after seeing it on Instagram. I was hesitant but we came. There was seating, we arrived at around 6PM. We were seated outdoors. Which was good since every time we have passed it other times it seems there's a really long line always and just overall chaos. I looked through the menu and I couldn't figure it out. There was some gimmicky items with flamin hot cheetos and nacho cheese, but it seemed it was mostly a different variety of tacos. They looked good in the pictures. My partner ordered "La Mamalona" reference to the whole "no quema cuh" truck craze, which is fine. It was the name of a quesadilla. It looked boring and basic but my partner reported it to be good. I ordered two shrimp tacos, two chilorio tacos, two "tacos desvelados" and a "gringa." The shrimp in the shrimp tacos was supposed to be fried but the breading was soggy. It was all over the place in general and was not good. I left a taco and a half. Chilorio was good and it tasted fresh, but I felt the tacos were just missing something. Or maybe the avocado in it was out of place The tacos desvelados were the best thing about the place, mostly because of the sauce and the crunchy tortilla made them taste fresh. The gringa was underwhelming and the meat tasted funny. Odd. Dry. It had shrimp too. It seems they put shrimp in a lot of their dishes but the shrimp tasted old on everything that it was in. To say I am disappointed is an understatement. I thought that maybe I was supposed to be drunk to enjoy the food. But then I tried the strawberry margarita my partner ordered and it had mango on top instead of strawberry pieces when she ordered the strawberry margarita. It was a red strawberry margarita with mango pieces on top instead of strawberry. I would have got drunk, but then when I sipped it it tasted like unflavored blended ice. Like they just colored the blended ice red. No flavor. At all. Flavor of anything. Alcohol, strawberry, nothing. It felt like it was a water margarita colored red with mango pieces on top. So again, even if I wanted to get drunk this drink didn't make it inviting at all to try anything else for myself. I left most of my food. When I asked for the check and I waited, the waiter brought my receipt and told me to check it to make sure everything got charged correctly. While I was doing it he stood there, feeling pressured and awkward I just said yeah everything is fine and gave him my card. There was literally crowds of people waiting. So I understand him. It was a bit surreal. Finally, I added a picture of my receipt to this review so you can see the message on the bottom. It makes sense now why they have the message. It seems food is not their thing, my guess would be drinks are their thing but I don't think either are because of my experience today. My guess would be the ambience but then they were just blasting a poor Bluetooth connected speaker in the patio that kept losing connection to their Bluetooth device. When I left, the parking lot was getting packed. The area crowded. So it's something. Too bad I won't be going back to find out what it is. God bless this place and I am glad they are doing well since they have a lot of locations it seems like. In terms of this place, I have just shared my experience. Try it for yourself. Hopefully your experience is different. Drunk or not."
