La Parrillada: Reviews & Ratings
They definitely know how to cook food, their horchata is homemade and the food is fresh, and the people there are always nice and courteous. One time they had a guy with a guitar that played songs, which to me felt pretty cool.
Stopped by to have lunch and was surprisingly very good. My husband and I shared the molcajete and nachos. Both meals had great taste. He got a lemonade to drink, which wasn't too sweet or bitter. Just right. Large portions of food. We didn't even finish it, we had to take some home. We had a great experience. We live in Manor, but will definitely return ! Thank you !
This is a small mom and pop owned business with no frills. I love to support local so I'm down with that. It had Good food and good service. Homemade corn tortillas were delicious!
Best chilaquiles verdes!!! Highly recommend!!! Very friendly and family environment.
Food was outstanding, and service was friendly and prompt. I got the Molcajete with chicken and beef. It was very good. It had cactus in it as well which is hard to find. My husband got the beef enchiladas. Also the sliced avocado that came with our meal was super fresh and perfectly ripened the corn tortillas were home made and they were out of this world. Strongly recommend!!
This place falls into the dive category but those are sometimes the best. Really friendly service...salsa had a good little kick, decent Queso and fresh chips.....As our routine goes we both went with enchiladas..beef for her chicken for me..red sauce had a good flavor along with my green sauce...beans we great and we both really like the rice. Plates were piping hot and plentiful. Definitely a solid find in the Elgin area!
