Aquarius Mexican Restaurant

Friendly staff. Food is great. It was my stomping grounds as a kid. Thought I’d give it a sober try bountiful but pleasantly surprised food is still freak at a non 2 or 3 am time hahah. Please visit food and staff is awesome!

This place was awful. The food was just blah but the service, good lord the service. I don’t expect to be carried around on a pillow but I felt like a giant nuisance, not a customer.
When I walked in the food server and bartender just blankly looked at me. Finally I asked «are you open?» to which one of the ladies answered «yes» and still just looked at me. Well may I sit down? «oh, yeah– wherever.»
After several minutes the food server made her way to my table, I asked for water and a margarita. Yes it was strawberry so I wasn’t expecting anything spectacular– but what I got was a sloppy glass of what tasted like simple syrup and shaved ice. That was after 5+ minutes of me ordering it. Keep in mind I’m sitting right in front of the bar and the food server, watching them talk and fart around. If I got a quarter of the attention the staff’s phones received, I would have felt like royalty.
My steak/​shrimp fajitas were ok. Again I know, not exactly authentic Mexican food but however I DO expect shrimp not to smell bad. Didn’t feel like eating much of anything at that point.
Unilocal says they have WifI, there’s a giant sign in the restaurant that says the have WiFI, however the food server told me they «turned it off» whatever that means.

Love eating here because it’s the thrill of the ride by ordering something different every time and every time it’s amazing!
You could literally drink there salsas they’re that good
Don’t know where the get their recipes but the food is spot on all the time every time. The place is kids a hole in the wall which I personally love and the just redid all their restrooms which are so so nice

An okay place. The service here is a bit slow and a few times had my food cold for pick up. The ingredients taste good overall but could use some improvement. The interior is set for a good nice out.

i stop by today with my wife for the firs time the food is ok but i little to grease the srvice was good and it was clean although i thing the can improve the the place but i understand that its more like a restaurant bar i dont think i comeback again.

I’ve only had take out from here so I can’t judge the actual establishment. Their tacos and burritos are awesome though. Discovered this place a couple months ago and we’ve become regulars. Shrimp tacos are my favorite and I love the red salsa they give you with your orders. You won’t be disappointed.

This place is the best! Always good for a night out of dinner and dancing, or drinks on fight night. The food is delicious in house or for delivery. The owner is a great business man who goes above and beyond for his patrons!

I stopped in for some dinner as I was in the area, the food was really good. The décor was not best or trendy, but I’d be back for their tacos if I was in the area. Decent prices.

Good serving size, carne asada steak was tender. The garlic shrimp serving size is fair but needs to be more garlicky.

I called in and there was no one available who spoke English. I was lucky my boyfriend was there and when we asked if they offered dancing on the weekends, they were unsure. after passing the phone on to two other people, a lady flat out just said no and that was the end. Even if they did offer dancing, I am no longer interested in going as it seems no one knows what is going on.

the food is ok, not that good. you get what you pay for. it looks like a bad place from outside but i strongly recommend their monday and friday free latin dance classes. very nice and friendly/​family environment.

I stopped in with my wife and a friend and none of our food was good. It was edible but that was about it. It seems like more of a local bar that has food and most of the business is in the evening. I am tempted to stop in and try the dance lessons sometime.
It is at Altgeld and Pulaski. On Altgeld, the half of the block from the alley to Pulaski is *not* permitted parking. The other half is permitted parking so watch the signs carefully and don’t try to park off the street by the fenced in parking lot as those vehicles do get tickets.

We had an hour to kill before catching the train, so we landed here in this strange little restaurant. It was fairly early in the day (noonish) for a Saturday, and they looked pretty unprepared for any visitors. Still, they were very nice and accommodating. The waitress, despite a little bit of a language barrier, was great.
There was some kind of dance class going on, which was entertaining to watch.
We ended up having to get our food to go because we were going to miss the train, but man, the food was incredible. I had an asada burrito, and my girlfriend had a cheese quesadilla and a side of beans. The beans tasted homemade — delicious! We only wish we could have stayed and enjoyed it. I hope to be back someday.

They have good food, and awesome posole on Sundays.
Friendly servers, and a casual atmosphere.

They have free salsa on Monday nights! Yes the lessons are in (mostly) English. I went recently for salsa. It supposedly starts at 7:00 but the teacher didn’t even come until about 7:30. She was friendly, funny, and encouraging (though the combinations she tried to teach us were really complicated). She encouraged the ladies to be sexy, to tease our partners, give them a smooch if they were our «papi chulos.» It was a mixed age crowd too. One nine or ten-​year-​old girl was showing us a thing or two! She did give some basic take-​home tips, and I learned the «real» way to do a basic salsa.
Parking is easy on Pulaski though the side street is permit. Check this place out if you’re looking for a salsa date. I didn’t try the drinks, though.
