I’ve been to a number of Mexican restaurants in Oak Park, and while many of them are good, Los Casadores in downtown Oak Park is the one I visit most—mainly because if you’re hungry for Mexican, this place will fill you up without destroying your wallet. This is especially the case if you take advantage of their lunch menu, which is reasonably priced yet has a good variety to choose from. I usually get the enchiladas or the grilled steak lunch, the latter of which comes with a spicy bean and bacon soup that I find especially tasty. In addition, the place’s chips (which are served warm) often always come with two types of salsa—red and green—and both salsas are the best I’ve had in any Mexican restaurant.
