History
Established in 1999.
Family Own and Operated! Serving the old town Peoria with traditional fresh made mexican food and seafood!
Family owned and operated restaurant. On a Sunday afternoon, restaurant was moderately busy. Seevice was friendly. There are various specials throughout the week. Plenty of parking is available.
Extensive menu. There was everything I could crave and much more. Complementary chips and salsa provided. My husband ordered the carne asada burrito. Burrito was packed with meat and avocado. There is the option to get the burrito wet / enchilada style, for an extra fee. A flavorful burrito. It did have a lot of tortilla folded into it. I opted for the carne asada fries. Fries were cooked with a crispness to the edges. They maintained this crispness until the end. Meat was overcooked; almost jerky like in parts. They had clearly cooked the meat, then it got cooked again when it was fired with the cheese. The nacho fries themselves were enjoyable.
saw great reviews so tried it for lunch today- pulled in and there were two cars there- that might have been a rip off- two parties there- service was extremely slow (half hour at least) another two parties came in-
they got their food before we
did -food was okay- another 15 minutes to get the check
AMAZING! All 3 of us in our party agreed that the tacos were the best ever! The cheese enchiladas were crazy good as well. We asked for onions cooked inside and the order came out as requested. Chips with the red and green hot sauce was super delicious! It was all great! The service was also very friendly and really cute decor inside. Definitely recommend checking it out!
Man I wish we wouldn't have waited SO long to try Don Lechos!! First off they are taking covid seriously and masks are required and seating is limited. They were super friendly while I placed my order over the phone and the food was ready quickly.
We got a bean and cheese burrito, cause picky kids, #11 Chile verde plate which comes with rice and beans, 2 hard chicken tacos and a fried ice cream for dessert. Everything was $36 and super great prices!!
The food was hot and fresh when we got home. There was sides of iceberg lettuce which was all fresh and green, pico de Gallo, sour cream and also salsas. The bean and cheese burrito was what you would expect. Just plain good! It was huge and enough for 2 kids, beany and cheesey lol. The Chile verde is what hubs was craving and said it was delicious. I taste tested and it was fab with a little spice served with flour tortillas. The hard chicken tacos had plenty of delicious chicken with lettuce and tomato with cheese and sides of sour cream, lettuce and salsa. Lastly, the fried ice cream. You can never go wrong with a delicious ball of cold vanilla ice cream fried to perfection. It was served with strawberry and a side of whip cream. Hit the spot for sure!!
Overall, this is a nice authentic Mexican food place and I felt right at home there. The service was so friendly and welcoming. The food is absolutely delicious and fresh and the prices are great! Just a matter of time before we are back and hopefully will be dining in soon as well!
