"Absolutely love this place. Had the steak Enchiladas Suiza Dinner, some chips & salsa, tamale and carrots. Everything was delicious. Carrots were nice and tangy. Chips were actually fried and fresh. I've previously had carne asada and my mom had carnitas tacos. Also great! Best Mexican food in the south suburbs!"
"portion of fries was insanely small for the price. the sopes were not good. i was actually excited to try the vegan chorizo but i don't think it was cooked all the way through. the salsa was not good either, not spicy and something had a lime flavor to it. im not a fan of lime flavoring at all. very disappointed. personally i wouldn't buy again."

"10/10 would recommend. The food is not cheap $$$ but worth it.Vegan Chorizo Taco (VEGAN) (GF) options are amazing. I got the corn tortillas which fell apart easily, but taste wise amazing. Avocado Egg Rolls (VEGAN) were nice and crispy and paired well with the sauce. They were not full size egg rolls but more vegan so miniature ones. Avocado Brownies (VEGAN) (GF) was a little on the hard side. Being that this was my first impression, I would say I will be trying more of their vegan options."
"I ordered last minute and they still came through with a fresh Signature Chicken Panini and Avocado Brownie. The veggie salad included was fresh as well as always. I continue to order from Advocado Theory because I can always depend on a last minute clean meal that is handled, packaged, and cared about by the workers. The updated packaging is adorable as well!"

"The Alfredo is dry. And the sauce is bland. They gave me half a chicken breast of that. For $5 I've given portillos 3 tries. Every time I order it's wrong or bad."
"I expected more from the pasta, but it was just very bland and even adding the parmesan topping didn't seem to enhance the flavor as much as I hoped it was a pretty disappointing experience. I'd rather go to chili's and get their cajun pasta or Nancy's pizzeria for their Alfredo, because at least you can taste something."
