El Burrito Jr

Very good authentic Mexican food. Tacos are great as are the dinners. Read a few  reviews about the owner being unfriendly , That could not be further from the truth. Sure the guy looks tough , but chat him up and he's as nice as they come. all the food is made to order, really happy they are here.

Great food but....The owner and/or employees have serious attitude problems. The seem to be playing up to that "Hey I'm MACHO" type persona. Makes you appreciate or rather go to Taco Bell with some brain dead teen at the helm going through the motions just to get payed.

A letter to the owner:
Come on man - cheer up.
You are not the Burrito Nazi.
Your the only Mexican joint in Lemont loosen up and or pretend like you enjoy being there behind the counter.

Your killing me when I "try" to place an order and you question my choice and what I want on it and "that's all?" ? It's OK if people like thing differently than what you expect of your customers - no need for terrible executed pressure from you - really.

You have it pretty good - your monopoly in Lemont - start enjoying it and starting letting your customers enjoy their stay in your business.

Ok? Cheer up - I promise you will feel better afterwards.

Oh the food : straight up standard Mexican fare that's dependable enough - as equally drowns able cranky pants at the counter - but once you get passed him - you'll be fine.

I have never eaten in - who knows maybe he climbs out from his tower of counter to heckle you on how you eat your food ? No reports but I would not be surprised.
