This place is amazing. Marco was a phenomenal serve with great recommendations. He offered putting melted cheese on my tacos, 10/10 would recommend. Drinks were great. Will definitely be coming back to see them again

The food, drinks and service were excellent. I ordered the chicken sopes and I can’t remember the name of the tacos but they had rib eye and chorizo and they were so delicious! The watermelon non alcoholic Margarita was also sooo delicious. Niko was a great server very attentive without being over bearing.

The music is a bit on the loud side. The food was very good. The Fondant de Maiz dessert was amazing. The ribeye taco and fish taco were my favorite 2 tacos. The atmosphere is a lot of fun. They do have a self service tequila and mescal area and self service beer that you can take part in but is not mandatory. I would definitely recommend this place.

I recently dined at this Momento Cantina restaurant and had such a great experience! The food was absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. Every dish tasted authentic, and the portions were just right! Our waiter, Marco, made the visit even better. He was attentive, friendly, and quick with recommendations that turned out to be spot-on. He checked in often without being intrusive and made sure we had everything we needed. Overall, it was a wonderful meal with excellent service. I’ll definitely be coming back when I return to Chicago 🌮✨

I've been here a couple times for lunch. I like how they have a quick service option or you can sit in their dining room for an extended menu. Margaritas are fantastic with a variety of flavors. Adding the cheese to the ribeye tacos is worth it. Love the beans and chips as a starter. Great service!
