El Nuevo Mexicano was founded by Teresa and Elfego Rodriquez in 1983. By using only fresh ingredients, they were able to create an authentic traditional Mexican menu. In 2004, their niece, Maria, took over the restaurant and infused her own style of cooking while keeping the traditional dishes the same. The menu at El Nuevo Mexicano is constantly evolving and will continue to offer dishes that are traditional along with new healthier options.
I highly recommend this authentic Mexican restaurant on N Clark Street in the Lakeview area of Chicago. This was my 3rd visit to El Nuevo. Each visit had excellent service, very good food well-presented, excellent service at a good price in a clean, pleasant environment...
Been here a few times now, their margaritas are the best I've had in Lakeview so far. Have also tried the nachos and chicken tacos which were so flavorful! This is my go to Mexican food restaurant.
Best Mexican food in the city by far!! Their steak fajitas are so good along with their red sangria. The patio behind the restaurant is great for summer dining.
We had a wonderful experience here last week! They only let our party in and then took our temperatures. All employees were wearing masks as well as patrons when being seated. We sat in their back patio which was festive with lights and paintings on the fences...
This is my favorite restaurant. When they reopened they added excellent protections for diners: masks and face shields for the servers, well separated tables, taking patrons temperatures before entry, and wearing gloves. Very responsible and thoughtful. Great food and servers too. Wonderful place!
