It seems like there are an abundance of Mexican restaurants in my neighborhood. We had been to Caesar's (self-proclaimed "Home of the Killer Margarita")... but a friend recommended we come here instead. Don't get me wrong, Caesar's margaritas are really good, but Mayan Palace's are just as good... Not to mention that, but they're half price on Tues/Thurs. Also, the food is way better than Caesar's, and probably one of the best Mexican places I've tried in Chicago thus far. Try the Ceviche appetizer or Chicken Fajitas. Everything always tastes fresh, and the staff is really nice. I could eat their chips and salsa all night long, and the way they keep bringing you more, they'd probably let me! The ambience is better, too (more hip restaurant, and less "bar-scene"). The restaurant space is cute but a bit crowded, so when it's nice out, try the covered back patio!
Pros: Food, service, margaritas!!
Cons: Make reservations on Fri/Sat eves
