Upscale???
By napervillegirl from suburbs, June 12, 2008

Overall rating:
1

I would not say upscale. Things shouldn't be called upscale just becuase they are in Naperville! Terrible service, besides the bus boys. They do ALL the work and still get yelled at in front of customers, very unprofessional. Our waitress was making it very clear that she didn't want to be there, and would rather be drinking at the bar with her friends! She kept going over to her friends sitting at the bar! At one point, I had to go down to get her because we were sitting for so long without service. There was long wait which made me think the food was going to be wonderful! It was so bland! Mexican food should not be bland. I think they only get customers because of the bar and the location is fabulous! The parking situation is terrible!! I would not want to go thru all this trouble to go there again. Freakin' Chi Chi's is better!

Favorite Mexican Restaurant

Lines are usually out the door, but this place is worth the wait. Service and decor are just okay, but the food is great. This is my favorite Mexican restaurant. I recommend the chicken flautas. Yum!

A great place to kick back with a corona and a fish taco. Close your eyes and you can almost feel like you are on a mexican beach

The service is not that great and the food has no flavor. The only thing that I enjoyed was the many choices of beer.

If I leave the area for more than a few weeks, i have to go to Front Street Cocina the day I get back into town. The food is the best I've ever had.

I went for lunch and was very disappointed. The fish tacos were very bland and generic and the guacamole was average at best. Service was also average with the busboys doing the majority of the service. Definitely not worth 4 stars.
