Can't speak on the taste of the food but it sure looked and smelled great! I went to play on their slot machines, nice selection but a tad cramped for the players. The spectators have more space and no room for your buddy who likes to lean on your shoulder while you play, its just you and the machines! Everyone seemed happy, drinkers had the game on TV, and the kids... well they entertain themselves so lol. Ober all very nice spot. Front door is hard to open tho 😆Atmosphere: 5/5Recommended dishes

Small Restaurant with small bar in back, I usually just order tacos to go, anf have a drink while i wait. The tacos are always amazing. They dont skimp on the fillings either. The staff is so nice and everyone pretty much is there to enjoy themselves.

Been here couple times and the food is good. But over the months the waitresses are just not it. Last night I was there and almost all the waitresses were on their phones. Didn’t even go around to check in the tables. Our waitress only took our order and took our food those where the only times she went to our table. There was only one waitress going around I believe her name is Angela all the other ones were gather at the bar and on their phones. Our waitress passed by our table and we asked for our check and rolled her eyes and said ok. I was so disappointed on our service last night.

I had an amazing experience at Los Compadres in Waukegan! The Huachinango (Red Snapper) was so delicious, and Angela provided exceptional service, attending to our every need. The restaurant even organized a beautiful table for mothers to enjoy. I highly recommend visiting this establishment for excellent food and extraordinary customer service. I missed the Karaoke but I will definitely be back soon! Gracias Angela.
