The Green House of Steak

We recently used The Green House of Steak for our company holiday party. Everything was really, really good. We appreciated their service and all the food they brought -we even ordered the goat meat -a first for me -and it was really, really good! I thought it was a cute touch that they decorated the buffet line with bell peppers and greenery to give it a more festive touch.

Everyone was pleased with the food so we are very happy with their catering service.

Really quickly, so I truly wanted to love this place but I just couldn't!

The Good:

Reasonably priced, Clean, courteous service, we were seated on the 2nd flr which has an open concept, lots of natural light.  Salsa was delicious especially the Chipotle based salsa. You get a soup which for me was delicious perfectly seasoned and you could tell it was homemade not canned.  

The bad.
We both order tacos, (a staple that is hard to mess up, so i thought).
I ordered tacos de carne asada, my friend ordered the tacos de alhambre.
My taco was NOT carne asade it was more like steamed beef that tasted nothing like carne asada, no seasoning just bland and dry I could not get passed the first bite.

My friends tacos were made with the same meat but came with melted cheese, green peppers, and onions like me my friend could not get past the first bite.

Informed the waitress. Who was very nice, and even brought back two beef tacos their second attempt at the good ole taco de carne asada was better but  not good enough.

I am sure that I would not being venturing to try anything else on their menu.

I would suggest changing the menu to reflect what they really are serving so that customers who dine there know what to expect.

I love this place. It is by far one of my favorite restaurants in Chicago. The prices are reasonable and the food is great. Their chicken flautas are not to be missed. They have the best horchata. The meat in the tacos and tortas is always flavorful and moist... The menu is enormous. And they offer everything from breakfast and burgers to burritos and tortas. All at a reasonable price... On top of that, the wait staff is friendly. What more could you ask for?... My only complaint is that this restaurant closes too early (around 7pm) and I can't always make it in time.
