Mexico On Main

Great food. Great service. I have been here several times and have not been disappointed. The only place I would say they need work is a more expansive dinner menu. For your average meal, this place is great. For out of the ordinary not so great. Still overall I love the food. No complaints.

If your ever in the highland Illinois /​Trenton area, go check out Mexico on Main! The interior can be improved on forsure with maybe big decorative picture frames & get rid of all the specials written on paper everywhere But they do have crazy big booths which I love!!! & the staff was super sweet, especially a young man that waited on us. Immediately after sitting in a booth we placed drink orders & piping hot chips & cold salsa were brought. Warmest chips I think I’ve ever had, great job! Just add a shake of salt to the basket if you like. Salsa was good, could have used more cilantro but I’m just happy to have unlimited chips & salsa. That’s rare these days. My soda never got empty. always refilled quickly! That’s was my fav part. I always get chimichangas &!the chicken inside was soo flavorful, rice & beans great, the delicious melted cheese on top add fantastic flavor. I will order more of that cheese next time& dip the chips. Husband had the shrimp/​chorizo/​chicken/​beef fajitas. They were awesome as well, maybe coulda used a touch more spice but still great. I will be back in sept. That’s the vintage flea market @ highland fairgrounds. I’ll take the extra 15 minutes & drive to Trenton with my group to have some delicious Mexican w nice staff.:) can’t wait!

The BEST cal do de pollo around! Great, friendly service, every time. Amazing prices. Bueno!

I wish I could give this place 10 STARS! This is by far the best Mexican place around the area and I just can’t believe how inexpensive this place is to eat for the quality of food that you get. From where I live I pass at least 5 other Mexican places to eat there and I never even think to not make the drive. The food is AWESOME and the margaritas taste great. 2 people can eat here for $ 25 bucks drinks included and not leave hungry by any means. The staff there are always very very nice and they want to make sure that you enjoy your meal and that’s a big part of the reason that we keep coming back. This place is like your country mom and pap place just Mexican instead of fried chicken. If you haven’t found this place you should because your missing out.

The food is very good with large portions. The servers are friendly and attentive. I never had to wait for refills.

Quick service. Cheap prices. Quality food. Can’t go wrong for a $ 6 meal! Very good fish tacos.

We’ve made at least 10 return trips here since the last review with friends and just the two of us. Thursday and Friday nights they have $ 10 pitchers of margaritas (original lime) and they also have other flavors too, but not at that price.
Shrimp fajitas were very good, the carnitas (which are pork tips can be made into fajitas too) are great as a stand alone dish. Their selection of fajita variations is extensive and a steal if you get them for two. Their chicken chimichanga is stuffed full of chicken and they have a pick two platter where you can build your own combo. They raised their prices, but it’s still cheaper than any other Mexican place and better too.

We got taken here by some family and were skeptical of there being good Mexican in rural Illinois. However, we were quite surprised. My bf feels that this place rivals and maybe outperforms the Mexican in Boston. I had a tasty burrito and strawberry daiquiri, and for a pretty good price. The chips and salsa were also flowing.
When back in IL, I hope this will be one of our stops.
