La Cebollita Grill

Great place. Everything I've tried is fresh & delicious. Staff is friendly and the place has nice rotating art work. Highly recommend !!

It would be inaccurate to say I was completely turned off by the food here, but I was happy to leave and expect never to return. There is simply no reason to stop in at La Cebollita with so many better options all around Pilsen. The food lacked flavor--even with a very heavy dose of salsa--except for the taste of oil. ¡Guácala! The one thing going for this place was the horchata. Let's just say they didn't skimp on the sugar or cinnamon, both of which are key to a tasty horchata.

I must be missing something.  Everything I tried I did not like, with the exception of the agua de tamarindo.  The gordita was super greasy and it came with only lettuce and tomato (beside the filling, of course) - anything else was "extra"$$.  The tamales were definitely not the best in Pilsen - if anything, something was off - the masa had a strange consistency... I could only eat 1/2 of one.  I thought it was odd that you had a choice of EITHER rice or beans with a meal (???) when most Mexican restaurants give you a bit of both.  I did not like either of the salsas that came with the (kind of stale) chips - but those were complimentary so I won't harp too much on that.  

I don't know ... maybe it's just me???  Well, I don't think I will be returning, cause I just don't get it...
