The tacos al pastor at El Sombrero Mexican Restaurant are the real deal. Marinated pork, fresh pineapple, and housemade salsa. One of the best Mexican spots in New Lenox without question.

Amazing enchiladas and the best queso I have had in New Lenox. El Sombrero Mexican Restaurant uses traditional recipes and it shows. The margaritas are strong and fresh, not from a mix.

Birria tacos and consomé at El Sombrero Mexican Restaurant are next level. The meat is braised for hours and the flavor is incredible. Get there early, they sell out on weekends.

Great family Mexican restaurant in New Lenox. El Sombrero Mexican Restaurant has huge portions and the chips and salsa are bottomless. The fajitas sizzle comes out perfectly seasoned every time.

I order the carnitas burrito every single time at El Sombrero Mexican Restaurant. Slow-cooked pork, fresh guac, and the perfect amount of everything. Best value Mexican in New Lenox.

Good solid Mexican food at El Sombrero Mexican Restaurant. The chile relleno was stuffed generously and the rice and beans are housemade. Friendly staff and quick service.
