The margaritas are very well-worth your money. Very big and very tasty. May be hangover fuel, but that's tomorrow's problem. I don't love how the chips don't come with salsa but rather some other stuff, but overall a decent place to go and eat with friends.

2/16/2023We are a group pf 6 women who work with refugees, and have decided that we deserve margaritas once a month. Twice now, we have relaxed with food and drinks at South of the Border. Our bill each time has been upwards of $175. We order empanadas, quesedillas, taco dinners, guacamole, etc all to share. While the service is wonderful and the margaritas good, the pico de gallo and the bean dips appetizers are small with few chips, and expensive for what you get. (In other Clark Street restaurants it's on the table) Twice now, we've asked for a few more chips, and both times, they have charged us. We find that rather off putting. Really? On a large bill, chips aren't comped? My summary is that they are penny wise and pound foolish. We are moving on.

We were visiting the area and decided to give it a try. The Rojas viejas was delicious, the chips and bean dip before the meal was also so yummy. I had the pastor taco (can't eat like I used to) and it was perfection. Amazingly the chocolate cake was some of the best I've ever had. We will definitely be back before we leave the area.

Stopped by after the Glenwood Art Fest. Very impressed. The birria queso fundido was very good, although we wished we had chips instead of tortillas as an accompaniment. The chicken chipotle pasta had just the right amount of heat, and there was enough to take home for a second meal. The tampiquena was perfectly done (we wanted very rare, and they got it right!) and was very flavorful. The margaritas were large and tasty. We will be back!

6/12/2023Best tacos in Rogers Park! Great service and amazing tacos that always hit. The margaritas are huge and they have drink deals everyday for a different drink! The steak tacos are a classic and a must! I recently tried to nachos and they were solid too. They also get points for having fountain Dr. Pepper!
