I was very happy with my experience at Hermanos Too.. Went there for the first time tonight with a Groupon. The service was very nice, we were the only ones there, and there were great $5 specials. The only thing I have to say that was disappointing was the hours. It closes at 8! What Mexican place closes at 8?
Anyhow, I will be back!
Overall: Â SOLID great tasting Mexican food in the burbs, Â good prices, Â and convenient for shopping around the area!
The Deets: I went here after driving past it many times, and I finally saw a good deal online - went in, and I was not disappointed. Â (They could certainly use a larger sign... so don't miss it as you drive by). Â Burritos are a great deal and are a good size! I tried out the carne asada burrito with all the fixin's. Â It was definitely enough for 2 people (although I happily stuffed my face and ate the whole thing). Â I would not say that there is anything extraordinarily different about this place than others, but it is great food at good prices. Â Looking for some solid Mexican food, Â then stop on by.
Right down the street from me...never been in here...went for a walk with mom and stopped in.
Seemed to have the mom and pop feel, which I really liked; mom and dad at the grill..daughter at the counter, tv on telemundo. Â Loved it. Â They have a special of the day, we had the weds special, a toaco and 2 empenadas...totally delicious (i went back the following day to order to more, 2 bucks apiece) Â Loved it. Â
Friendly and clean, always seemed to be a table full of someone enjoying a meal. Â Will be back.
Good eats, decent prices.
My girlfriend and I tried this place out for the first time the other day. In the dictionary this place's picture is right next to the definition of "Hole in the wall". It's really tiny, with about 8 or 9 tables squeezed in to a space the size of most people's living room, but the effect is a very comfortable, 'at-home', meal and I must say I am a fan.
The service was a bit lacking though. There was only one very overwhelmed looking woman doing just about everthing in the front of house. Right after we came in, she had to get a massive to go order ready for a customer and 4 other large tables came in and sat themselves. It took us about 20 minutes of patient waiting after finishing eating before we where finally able to get our check, settle up and get out of there. I totally understand how that goes though and I almost just wanted to get up and go help her take an order! I have to imagine with all of the great reviews on here, that this was a one time thing, so I will definetly be heading back to give it several more chances.
The food was fantastic and very reasonably priced. The daily specials are the way to go, I got two loaded steak tostadas for 5 bucks! Even the chips and salsa where top notch.
If you haven't checked this place out yet, get to it!
I was looking for a quick place with authetic, simple tacos and 4 Hermanos Too nailed it! Â The al pastor tacos were delicious with a few chunks of pineapple, cilantro and onions. Â They reminded me of the tacos I had in Cabo. Â Served with rice and beans, it was just right. Â This place is tiny and no-frills, but the food is great. Â I will definitely be back!
Review Source:This is a nice little taco joint a bit west of the Village Crossing Shopping Center. We were making several stops in the area today, and decided to grab a quick lunch here.
They have some very reasonable daily specials. Today was the 3 taco dinner for $5, which is what Christopher opted for. It was pretty good, and certainly plentiful and is served with beans and rice as well as the basket of chips and some spicey hot sauce. For $5 it was a deal. He also said the horchata was good too.
I had the enchiladas suizas. It was pretty good as well. The beans and rice were average, but there was a tasty little salad that came with it as well.
If I am in the area, I would certainly consider stopping here again. Like I said, you can't beat the $5 daily special.
I was a fan of the original location 4 Hermanos when I lived nearby, so I was happy to see this one open up after I moved to the area.
Atmosphere: It's ok - very clean, and a good number of tables for such a small place. The service is simply ok, perhaps a bit slow. Food comes out quick & hot
Food: Try the Chorizo tacos. Seriously. Very good chorizo, fresh chopped onions, cilantro, and a lime on double corn tortillas. Simple and absolutely perfect. The chorizo is perfectly flavored. I crave these. The Horchata is also good.
Prices are reasonable and there are nice specials.
Overall a great little neighborhood mexican restaurant
This is a tiny storefront Mexican joint sandwiched between a medical supply store and a real estate appraisal office, across the street from the Niles Target store on Touhy, but on the Chicago side to the south. Seems when I'm in the area I end up going to Papa Chris just a block away 95% of the time, but this time I felt like having me some Mexican. In what is looking more like "Try New Mexican Restaurants Week" for me, I thought I'd come in here at noon. I've been suspicious but curious about this restaurant for at least a year but never tried it.
Well, it's not a seedy joint at all. Not crowded either despite the noon hour and people having lunch. Only one other person was ahead of me in line. A few more people came to pick up carry-out orders while I ate there.
The place has some large paintings on the wall and an Aztec calendar. They appear to be big fans of President Obama, with 4 pictures of him on the wall, plus a pair of commemorative Obama plates, in addition to the mandatory Our Lady of Guadalupe image, which seems to be at almost every Mexican place I've visited.
Of course, I had to do my benchmark steak burrito test on the place. I got a small table off to the side and the lady from the counter brought over a basket of chips and a squirt bottle of hot salsa. The salsa was perfect, just the right amount of flavor mixed with the right combination of hotness. And in what seemed to be no more than 2-3 minutes, my burrito was ready, along with a side of beans and rice. I also got a horchata for my drink.
The serving size was excellent, contrary to the review by A.A. The burrito was cut in half but it was a manageable size and not skimpy either. If it could be any better, I'd add a bit more sour cream inside, but otherwise a stellar burrito, complemented well with the hot sauce. Beans were seasoned just right and the rice was fluffy and light, bright yellow in color. The horchata was good but a little more vanilla would put it over the top. The food is really good overall and a few minor things don't really make a big deal for me.
A good little place on the far NW side of Chicago and certainly a fine local alternative to Taco Burrito King. And there's a BYOB sign on the door for those who are into that.
