I went for the 1st time a few days ago with my kids nanny to have dinner & it was pretty good food, but they have some rude & nosey waitresses. I expected to have a quiet dinner before going home. We were having a conversation & laughing but while waiting for the food, the young girl came back & asked "did I just hear 1 of u say u have covid" We never said that so maybe she shouldn't try to be listening to other peoples conversations. After that she kept coming by our table & just standing there close by. If I'm going to dine in, then employers need to be respectful of customers, including not listening to people's conversations & interrupting & jumping into their conversations.

1/28/2023We 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.

I thought we had found our neighborhood bar. . There was a bartender who was cool. He no longer works there. Went for drinks tonight; Thursday. Not very busy but steady. Only 2 people working the restaurant besides the cooks. One guy brought chips and salsa after we were there for 5-7 minutes. We told him we were ready to order. He told us " he's gonna get you". We sat for about 15-20 minutes while they take phone orders, new orders, bus tables, take out trash, tend to the people sitting at the bar and cash patrons out. The guy behind the bar even had time to get a drink of water. I ate some chips and salsa then we left. A little courtesy goes a long way. We really liked it there. The atmosphere was great; diverse. But we won't be going back.

7/21/2022Best 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!
