  Food was great..and deserves great reviews!!  One reviewer says he eats at La Cascada all the time and the food is good but gives a 2 star rating. Doesn't help much.
  
  Come and enjoy...the food here was excellent!!

  My first visit here and I was definitely impressed.
  
  A friend and I arrived rather late (8:00 pm, closing time is 9:00) yet we received excellent service.
  
  The chips and salsa were really good!  Chips were served HOT, fresh, and crispy.  The salsa was very smooth and flavorful.  I like hot salsa and asked if they had a spicy salsa.  Our server brought a bowl of spicy salsa right out and it was very good.  It was slightly more chunky and had a great flavor, definitely hotter.  I enjoyed both salsas.
  
  I ordered veggie fajitas and my friend ordered steak fajitas.  We were both very pleased.  Again, despite the proximity to closing time, all the ingredients were very fresh and tasty.  The rice was perfect, the beans had a good texture and flavor.  The vegetables were perfectly grilled and nicely seasoned.
  
  My friend enjoyed the steak fajitas as well.
  
  The server was excellent, making frequent trips to our table, bringing extra salsa, chips, and boxes when it became apparent that we would have food to take home.  He even brought us some of the hot salsa to go.
  
  A fantastic first experience. We'll be back, soon.

  This is our go-to Mexican restaurant near us! We love to sit outside, and the view of the lake is nice. The food and margaritas are good as well!

  Love this location! Located right across from the lake it is a very calming and beautiful view. We sat outside which made this even more enjoyable. Our server was nice and the owner even came around talking with us and telling us about their other location opening soon near Purdue. The server ended up bringing us some tequila shots for the table which was a fun surprise. The food was delicious- my fiance and i split the fajitas and this was plenty big for both of us. I really enjoyed their salsa- definitely something that sets mexican restaurants apart. Will definitely return again!!

  I live in Cicero.  Been here several times.  It has never been exceptional, but good, inexpensive and fast.  Tonight was different.  I ordered a steak chimi.  The steak was chewy, full of gristle and stringy.  It was $10.99.  I told our waiter about it twice and he said "I told them about it" and he gave me a check for the full amount due.  I told the cashier, which I believe was our waiter, I couldn't believe they charged me full price!  He said I ate all of it, which wasn't correct.  However, the chewy meat was on the last part of the chimi, so I did eat most of it.  They obviously don't need my business, given their rude response.  I'm never going back!  Too many better dining options.  This is very sad. They get 1 star, as my wife said her meal was good.  I would give them minus 5 stars!
