El Tinajon, Chicago, Illinois, Caribbean Restaurant Details

Food:

Best hidden gem in the city. Great authentic food with a staff that remembers your name!

Food:

Excellent service! Amazing food! Incredible prices. Cannot go wrong here. BYOB also---always a plus!

Food:

My best friend and I decided to explore the city we live in but don't know everything about. So we ended up in Roscoe Villiage. While walking down the street, taking in the quaint shops, decadent bakery and intriguing art stores, we saw a couple thru the window of this restaurant eating something which looked excellent.
All I can say is I'm so glad we went in. The food is excellent. The service is wonderful. Although they serve Mexican food, be adventurous and eat Guatemalan. Sooooo flavorful and good.
We will be back

Food:

We just stumbled across this place by chance, but this was one of the best meals we had in Chicago. Everything we tried was delicious, and the vegetarian options were good and well-delineated. If you want to change anything on the menu or have allergies, they will work with you, but you will find it easier if you speak some Spanish. If you just order right off the menu you'll be just fine. Also, the prices were startlingly reasonable.

Food:

Great Guatemalan food! Very authentic according to Guatemalan people I know!
