    I grew up eating Mexican food in south Texas and this place has great tacos. Didn’t expect to find good Mexican food in Illinois.

    The shrimp tostada is one of my favorite foods ever. I used to get it in college when I was broke (the price is right at less than $2 and I was never disappointed). Also, excellent horchata..

    Authentic Mexican, or at least the best Normal, IL can do. Love this place.

    Best lengua tacos I have EVER had. The chicken is primo too. Only place in town with Victoria beer. Seating is limited.

    The chicken fajitas and their house salsa were legit.

    Go to El Porton. Try the chorizo. Grab a horchata if you can't handle the spicy (or just because it's good).
