Our family had a great experience at Mario’s for dinner. The food was outstanding. Well prepared, very flavorful, and filling. My wife and i both had burritos while our kids had tacos and a quesadilla. Each one of us enjoyed our meal and left with some for lunch the next day. The restaurant was very bright and welcoming. The atmosphere made us want to stick around and take our time. The service was friendly and attentive. Always folks around if you needed anything. The pricing was perfectly fair. The quality and quantity of food justified the amounts. Add in the fact that our money went to a small business owned by a local, Crystal Lake family and I didn’t think twice. Will definitely be back for a football Sunday and a karaoke Thursday. Thank you Mario and Anita for great food and a great dining experience!!

All food was very fresh. Good service. Good prices. Chips were excellent but the sauces and salsas need some work. Considering the quality of the service and food combined with good pricing I will definitely be back.

Came in for karaoke night and had a great time with my kiddo. These are the details: *Atmosphere: Very Cool! Great place for an adult birthday with the day-of-the-dead, graffiti-style art. I don’t know any Mexican place like this, refreshing. *Drinks - 1/2 priced margaritas on Thursday so I got the Mango Mint. It was awesome, better than I expected! And they use fresh le, not packaged sweet and sour mix. This makes 100% difference (especially if you get heartburn.) *Food: I got the flautas. They were crisp, delicious, and beautiful. A+ On presentation. The flouta meal is definitely a lighter dinner, but it was plenty for me. I was definitely full, but not taking leftovers -which is what I expected and wanted. Little one got kids mini-tacos with fries - looked delicious, but I didn’t get a chance to try. She ate them all, with horchata (all kids love horchata - get one!) *Service: Staff seem friendly and knowledgeable. *karaoke night was fun and appropriate the kids. Always a plus on a
