   The food was very good, and it came Jimmy John style -- freaky fast. The host and servers were very friendly as well. Outside seating was very pleasant, We will be back.

   Great food. Music too loud though. We had to shout across our 4 person table.

   We had reservations for outside but were initially seated inside and had to wait a few minutes to actually get a patio table. Service is great, staff friendly and attentive. Food is good and comes fast but we didn’t feel rushed. Diverse crowd and I enjoyed the Oscar Valentin cocktail.

   Everything was fantastic! The food was a different kind of Mexican with great flavors. I person loved the chicken enchiladas and the guacamole was extra good. We’ll definitely be back.

   This restaurant is really a cut above. It has a sweet outdoor space, great service, music and just a nice vibe. It took us a while to find parking and then, on leaving, discovered that there is valet parking for a fee. The food was upscale. My husband has tacos (relatively small) and tamales. He really enjoyed them. I had bass (big) with delicious spinach and sweet potato purée. What sn unexpected treat!

   I loved pretty much everything such as ambiance, atmosphere, service, timing of food delivery. The food and drinks were not anything to brag about. The guacamole was good. I didn’t like the sauce on the flautas or enchiladas. Fish taco was good minus the sauce that was on it. I would go back just for the ambiance.

    Sadly the margaritas were terrible and the food was only a little above average. It’s a gorgeous patio but in a city like chicago work so many great Mexican restaurants, I would never go black to a place waiting such awful margaritas

    Food was amazing and so was the service! The manager was so accommodating when we said we were cold he tried to reseat us by a heater and turned on the fire pit! Cocktails were great too. The only reason I didn’t give it all 5s was that it is pretty loud outside. Otherwise, I’d give them 10s if I could. Such a fun night. Thank you!

    Not a good experience at all. The food was just okay, nothing special. The aioli on the fish tacos was overpowered by the taste of mayo and lacked other flavor. The service was annoying. We ordered a $46 pitcher of the house margarita and the clumsy waitress spilled at least half a cup of it trying to pour it into our glasses! It was all over the table and floor! Pretty annoying considering how much it cost and she didn’t offer to top it off! The margarita itself was terrible, too sour. It tasted like a pitcher of lime juice and water! When she told me it was made in batches that totally explained why it was weak but for the price it was really disappointing! I paid extra to put two shots of Mezcal in it and regretted the extra charge because it didn’t help. We left more than half a pitcher on the table. I really regret leaving that waitress a $20 tip! I just hate not to tip, but she didn’t deserve it. Oh and we asked for straws, she told us they ran out. Skip this place! Much better restaurants in Pilsen.

    Great place to get a meal before a show at Thalia Hall. I have eaten here a number of times and the food is served pretty quickly after ordering. It's possible to get in-and-out of the restaurant in under an hour if you're in a hurry. The food is excellent, and the Oscar Valentin cocktail is the best!

    An excellent fun lively addition to the Pilsen area of Chicago, we were pleasantly surprised at the tasty food and superb service. Friendly and inviting staff who found a table for us, despite our reservation times being off and very moderately priced great dishes.. What more can one ask for on a Saturday evening?

    Celebrating my husbands birthday. In the notes when I made reservations, I asked to get a slice of cake with a candle at the end of brunch. I’m assuming they don’t read the notes, because it never happened. Out appetizer was brought out last, after brunch… and it was only when my husband reminded him. They also forgot our beers… he brought them out maybe 30 minutes later, again when he was reminded. Waiter was very friendly, but very forgetful… I get it it happens, but it was a total no for me; when the notes weren’t read. Food was ok. First time there; and probably last.

    Sat outside to the back which was much less loud that the outdoor area with the overhang. Surprised had to pay for chips and salsa (we didn't) and the queso fundito was a great app that fed 2 of us perfectly before a show at Thalia Hall. Loved the atmosphere and vibe. The place is huge and lots of cool spots to hang out with couches, big family-size table. Just a super cool place. Great, strong margaritas. Can't wait to go back.

    I don’t think I’d go back. I’d rather do La Vaca across the street. The 3 reasons are that they have a time limit for the table. It was 90 minutes. I just don’t think when you have a $100+ tab for 2 people you should be kicked out of a restaurant. They let us overstay our 90 by a few minutes and then the manager legit came over and asked us to leave. Reason 2 - the portions were small. $5 for salsa and it was a little side of salsa and $5 tacos with skimpy ingredients isn’t it. Food was tasty, but… Reason 3 - when our waiter checked us out table side (after bringing a bill we didn’t ask for and telling us we had to leave while we had full drinks) HE PRESSED THE 22.5% TIP option as he HE choose the tip we should give for us and then handed it back and said just sign. It blew me away. So while the vibe is fun and the food was good, I can’t recommend Pilsen Yards.

    Love the food here at Pilsen Yards! The lamb shank is really rich, but it is out-of-this-world. Get an Oscar Valentin cocktail made with smoky mezcal, turmeric, and carrot! Really can't wait to go back next time I'm in Pilsen.
