Closing 01 August, so what difference does it make? Several good tequilas still in stock, but $17 for three tacos, NOT double-tortilla-ed, and a spoonful of rice? C'mon...

Farewell to one of Wilmette's first original destination restaurants. We loved their dedication to original Mexican cuisine and spirits. Wow. They will be missed. Our town has grown to become a competitive restaurant scene now in 2023 as opposed to a quaint little burg whose shops serviced we locals rather than drain our rather large pocketbooks with dozens of choices for overpriced food and beverages. Gone are the charming small businesses who looked out for its local population to be replaced by chain and theme joints out to bank as much as humanly possible in their routinely short lifespan. So, for the old Ouilmette Station Depot Nuevo's home for years , now it's been sold to a burger chain. How predictable. We're sure it'll bring in all manner of out of towners ... but become a local mainstay? Thanks, but Wilmette has thousands of great local burger cooks. Bon appetite! And no thanks!

Everything was absolutely amazing! We ordered the queso fundido as an appetizer. Actually, I'd just come back for it and the drinks. Not shown are the two drinks we ordered Cucumber Avocado Margarita and a Paloma. There was a perfect balance of Tequila in the drinks. They were beautiful and refreshing for a spring day. For our entrees, we both chose the 3 Mix Match Tacos. On the blue plate: chorizo, chicken and black beans Portabella mushroom. On the orange plate: carnitas, fish and BBQ short rib. My favorite was the fish taco. We will definitely be back!!!

Just ate here for the first time, and I was blown away by pretty much every aspect. Their chips were delightfully crispy, the salsa roja was delicious and had a good kick to it, the guacamole had a lovely texture and was very onion-forward which I like, and the mole chicken enchiladas were probably the best enchiladas I've ever eaten. Highly recommend this place, and they also have a really nice outside seating area and adjacent free parking from 3pm-10pm.
