El Pecado Mexican Food - Chicago

A great, affordable spot with a nice atmosphere and a killer patio. The rice is phenomenal too.Food: 5/5

Hands down some of THE best Mexican food i've ever had! i ordered the Enchiladas de Mole dinner with sour cream, chips with salsa, and a bottled Mexican Coke and everything was clearly made from scratch and with love the servings were generous, the mole sauce was complex and rich, the enchiladas were perfect, the rice and beans were delicious, the chips were fresh, and the salsas (which i was pleasantly surprised when i received both a roja salsa and verde enchilada sauce, some places don't do that! were unbelievable.everything had a nice spice level, more flavor oriented than spicy but it had a nice kick i added some hot sauce i had at home for a little bit more, but that's just my preference! the price for their bottled Coke is the most affordable i've seen in town which stood out to me since it's my favorite. i kid you not, the verde sauce could be bottled and sold, it's easily without a doubt the best i've ever had.and not only is the food phenomenal, but who i presume are the owners are very kind my bus was running severely behind when i scheduled a pickup for around 8ish PM so i didn't get there until 8:45 PM, which i felt terrible about; i assume it was slow so they were closing up early, but they waited for me and were understanding and so sweet. i'm newer to the area, but i can already tell this will permanently be my favorite Mexican restaurant in Chicago.Vegetarian options: very good vegetarian options in almost every category of dish! they even have vegetarian tacos which i'm excited to tryKid friendliness: lovely small business with a warm environment, good owners, no coloring books or anything but it's a welcoming spot!

I just stopped in on a whim. I really liked the food. I only ordered two steak tacos and a glass of Jamaica. Tacos were very good. There are many similar restaurants but this restaurant has its own style and niche. Good quality food and a quality dining experience.Food: 5/5

Nothing special for this place. A little bit disappointed. The place was empty when we were there. We had a party for 3. We asked for Carne Asada. The food presentation was the average, but the meat was really chewy...Despite that we left 20% tip for the service.I don't think, in the future, to return to this place...

Horrible service. Waited over an hour and a half for our dinner which never arrived... ended up just leaving. Did speak with the staff and they offered to comp the meal and prep it to go, but then disappeared into the kitchen. Got tired of waiting and left. The guacamole was ok though.Food: 3/5
