“ I pass this place EVERY day on my way home. Today was the day I decided to give it a try. The ambiance was super chill. This would be the perfect date scene without breaking the bank. The food was FANTASTIC! The service was delightful. You know it's authentic when one waitress has to get the other for an English order! Oh and they aren't cash only. I paid with card last night. ”

“ This place is crowded but definitely worth the wait food was amazing loved the rajas con queso gorditas their salsas are spicy I loved them 10/10 because their food there is parking in front of this location and a free parking garage close by so no issues with parking the staff was very friendly definitely busy place but their food is worth the wait hand and freshly made tortillas and gorditas took 20 min for our order but again it was worth it and it was a sunday morning! Good job staff! ”
“ Great gorditas! If you know how gorditas are made you’ll know that a lot of oil is used but at Don Angels Gorditas they’re don’t super oily. I also shared a burrito with my husband that was sooo good. The place was clean and had some music in the background that my baby vibed to. If you have small babies or kids, the menu is limited, my 9 month old had some potatoes without the cheese and loved it! ”
“ Fresh good food! My toddler ate all her food, and if you have a toddler you know how picky they are. Service is great too! A must try ”
“ It is my first time that I go through this area of elgin and I find this restaurant very tasty, the gorditas and handmade quesadillas are very tasty ”
“ We absolutely loved this place! They have a limited menu, but it was delicious. We had 4 steak tacos, two steak quesadillas, and two gorditas. The tacos were so delicious, and the quesadillas were so crunchy and not at all greasy. My bf loved the Horchata so much that he got a second glass. Highly recommend anyone trying this restaurant. ”
