I've been fortunate to dine in wonderful restaurants in Mexico and many US cities large and small, and this seriously was the best Mexican meal I've ever had with wonderful and friendly service. Pollo Loco. And their chips, salsa and mayonnaise sauce were fantastic too. Best chips I've ever had. Curt and Craig Culver, wow, I'm jealous even though we have the 2nd best Mexican restaurant in Rhinelander!

We've been to their other locations, so we just had to check out the Sauk City one. Did not disappoint! The food is amazing & service is too. The atmosphere is wonderful mostly due to the amazing murals painted everywhere. Quality and portion size is excellent, seems like always leave with a to-go box. I love how the staff works seamlessly as 1 big team. From being seated, taking drink then food orders, to paying the check; it was a different person each time so we feel like we're the only ones there. Despite being a busy weekend afternoon.

Amazing! One of us got the steak nachos and we all 3 could have split it. Delicious! The fajita quesadilla was really good too. Kid loved the chicken strips and fries. It was a really fun atmosphere. Great service. We will definitely be back. Worth the 35 minute drive for us. Jose himself was there, and super sweet guy. Excited for him and his success.

Service was great. The strawberry and raspberry margaritas were very good at a good price. Portions were nice and big while being affordable. All of the food came out fresh and hot.

So many options but all done so well. The chips and salsa are delish. You get a "white" sauce that has a touch of sweet to it. Portions are large and presented well. Servers are full of smiles and are very kind. New go to Mexican restaurant!!!

The food is amazing, portions are large, staff is friendly, and the mural is quite captivating. Just don't make the same mistake i did and underestimate the portions. Was uncomfortably full, but it was worth it!

Came here for drinks. The hostess was super friendly and sat us immediately. The chips came out hot and fresh and with two types of salsa how can you not?! Whatever the creamy sauce is, it’s amazing! You can tell they care about the quality here. The atmosphere is great, will definitely be back to try the food for real next time. Thank you!
