We are a Mexican restaurant, and our cuisine is inspired by the kitchen of Tejero, Michoacan where our Mexican parents and grandparents passionately cooked all kinds of regional dishes for our family.
We always remember that Sundays was a special day in Tejero, when people used to eat the famous carnitas of Michoacan. A common side dish at our table was a delicious guacamole homemade by grandma with Michoacán’s very own avocados, of course!
We decided to start our first Mexican restaurant in 2015 here in Jacksonville to share with our community the flavors of Michoacan and other Mexican regions.
This is a family owned restaurant and it’s our pleasure to give to you the best of ours!
Welcome to Mexico in Jacksonville, IL!
Hector Alvarado and family
