Very authentic Sopes, Tacos, and outrageously flavorful salsas for everything!
My server was apologizing for the wait, they were PACKED when I got there. I had to reassure her several times that I'm as easy as Sunday afternoon (it was a Sunday afternoon). 😁
The only "disappointment" is the tinga (chicken) was very 'wet' and it went through the tortillas making them mushy corn... But the flavor, and portion size more than made up for that.
Absolutely delicious! I work in Waukegan and end up driving by this location about once or twice a month, so I've been meaning to try it out for a while. I should not have waited so long! Friendly service, well lit, and simply amazing food. I will be making this a regular stop.

This place is a hidden gem in Waukegan yet it's a staple for those who know... "IYKYK" Service is always friendly, albeit sometimes can seem slow because there's usually just one person serving, taking orders, food running and bartending. Don't let that deter you. The food is top quality and the prices are fair. This has definitely become my go-to spot.
Pozole was amazing. I tried both green and red, and I can't wait to come back.
If you’re not familiar with this hidden gem, you’re missing out! They have it all! The flavors, the variety, the home style cooking and the service with a smile! They also do catering! And let me tell ya, they’re amazing to work with! Super professional and on top of everything! They recently catered my parents 50th wedding anniversary of about 200 guests and it was an absolute success! Everyone loved the food and service! I highly recommend Antojitos Tonatico!
They have the best menudo in town, their portions are generous and very reasonable prices. Great customer service by who I believe is one of the owners and also by the staff. Their pickled carrots are the best, which that alone is a reason to go eat there.
Good food, fair prices, served quickly by pleasant waitress. Nice colorful environment, interesting specialties.
We drive all the way frome Janesville Wisconsin just to be able to eat real Mexican food I believe that this is the only town in Waukegan Illinois that actually makes real Mexican food anyone who really wants it this is the place to go they brought real Mexican food all the way from Mexico I wouldn't change anything in this place it's perfect more then perfect here in Janesville Wisconsin they have Mexican restaurants but none of there food actually taste like Mexican food like they try to cook it's just that there food is not 100 percent Mexican food there food is from other countries around Mexico and it doesn't taste all that great they should bring it here to Janesville
make sure u order correctly and count your change, especially if your not latino. food takes too long. this place should be remodeled to hide that kitchen. the food taste almost pushes the 5th star...
This owner takes a lot pride in serving the highest quality of ingredients. My preference here is chicken enchiladas. I have never had enchiladas anywhere, that have pure tender white chicken like this place. If your in the area please stop and patronize this eatery..
