Best sunsets by drjdd via Citysearch on 5/18/2012
I was disappointed by some of the poor reviews. Ignore them. Consider yourself lucky this place exists. No better water views in Lake County and a patio big enough to support a crowd. Expect one on nice days and don't complain if you…
A great place by Kathy B via Insider Pages on 12/6/2011
I've been going to El Puerto since they opened and have watched them grow, improve service and do a lot of remodeling. I LOVE the food and the staff. This is my favorite Mexican Restaurant in northern Illinois.

Worst Service and Food I've had in a long time by ToddMorton via Citysearch on 8/15/2008
I have gone there a number of times with friends but I can't take the poor service any more. We had one good waitress but she quit because Saul the owner did something to her. The food quality is not good. I would recommend raising prices…
A Great Spot by David M via Insider Pages on 11/6/2006

PROS: Great entrees, Great…
