Friacos Mexican Restaurant 1321 Illinois Route 59, Shorewood, IL 60404

"For a Mexican food place I expected more flavor. Bell peppers in my fajita burrito were basically raw along with the onions. Steak had minimal flavor. For free table salsa and chips. The salsa for most would be a bit on the spicy chips seemed to be dumped out of a bag and put in a warmer. Service was nice a bit slow for refills but very friendly. Now for the price.. OUCH I've gotten more food from similar sized places for 12 to 1i percent less!!. Probsbly won't be a return customer"

"We live just a few miles away and had never been to Friacos. We went with our neighbors who've been there several times. We loved it. The food was excellent and the service was even better. We had a young man as our waiter and he was very attentive and friendly. He explained different items on the menu and was on point with the drinks and refills. Highly recommend that you visit next time you have the taste for Mexican food."

"Ordered two carne asada dinners, like we always have in the past, & have absolutely loved. This time, we were served a different cut of meat that was very tough, overcooked & had no flavor at all. Asked our server about the change & she said that she already had 3 complaints that night & would talk to the kitchen. Came back telling us that they changed their meat & she was very sorry. No compensation was offered whatsoever. I couldn’t even eat my steak because of how tough it was & we spent $100 on our meals & drinks. We will never be back again. So very disappointing."

"Food okay, I have tasted better. I heard so much rave about this place. I had ordered on the app. When I arrived I was told not ready had to wait. Notice items I got with in different containers. I had to combine items as it was a meal for two people yet it was it 5 or 6 containers. Have not gone back since."

"Haven’t been here since ordering tacos from them during the Covid lockdown. Service was friendly and quick, feed was great, and place was clean/inviting. Extra bonus that each person gets their own salsa and those chips are addicting! 7-8 tables of people on a Sunday afternoon so not busy but everyone seemed pleased with their experience."
