from Google"Our party of four got there at 7 on a Friday evening and waited 15 minutes for a table. We sat on the patio which was covered with good fans to circulate the air on hot summer days. We could hardly hear across the small table because the acoustics are not great. The food was mediocre. Tacos were tiny. My son and I each got Chicken enchiladas and it has an extremely dry rub on it and dark brown mole. Seemed like a Tex Mex flavor. Husband had three small tacos, daughter had a caesar salad which was good. We shared the Nachos. The Nachos we would return for because they were tasty. The boys drank three beers total and us girls just drank water. Our total bill was $172 with tip. Not impressed for the price."
"The staff members are warm and attentive. The ambiance is thoughtfully decorated, chic, relaxing, & inviting. The food... I'll give you the plus side first. The corn tamales are absolutely delicious! The mango marinated beef on the nachos was flavored perfectly. Both are a must order! Then there were the entrees... (insert sigh). Everything was plated beautifully. Thought was put into the selecting of which dish to use for each entree type. But, all of it lacked flavor. All of the tacos tasted the same (5 types). The Heirloom Carrots Al Pastor was recommended by our server for their flavorful preparation. They simply tasted like air. We (party of 5) all agreed that whatever the carrots were tossed in looked beautiful, yet had no taste. The sauce for the enchilada meals was loose/ runny. We asked for whatever sauce that could be provided to "doctor the meal up". It was a real let down. Oddly enough, my group left with full bellies yet, craving something/ anything with more seasoning in order to be fulfilled."
"Jeremy, the host, did an outstanding job accommodating us from the moment we arrived. Even though there was a wait, he got us seated very quickly and was incredibly warm, kind, and attentive. He truly went out of his way to place us at the best possible table based on our needs, which made a big difference in our experience. Huge shoutout as well to Roger and Cesar—exceptional industry professionals who clearly bring years of experience, care, and work ethic to everything they do. I’ve seen them at multiple establishments over the years, and having them at Pilsen Yards is a real asset to the team. They were both extremely helpful, welcoming, and accommodating, and their presence alone elevates the space. The food is always excellent, the vibes are consistently great, and the service is a major reason my friend (a regular) and I will continue coming back. Pilsen Yards continues to deliver on all fronts."
"Fun place. Eclectic crowd. High energy. Second time I have been here and the food is excellent. Sometimes hard to get served at the bar."
"Would not recommend. We were served by an older, taller man with gray hairs. He was nice and attentive at first, but halfway through started to pressure us to leave. He asked us about to go boxes while we were still eating. Then he brings the check without asking if we were done, and we still wanted to order more drinks. He brought the drinks back and slammed them against the table in front of us. After this he stopped checking in on our table, and ended up bringing the check and shoving it at us without saying a word. Not only this, but we came for brunch on a Sunday. The amount of white people giving us weird looks and staring us down was INSANE. Incredibly uncomfortable atmosphere. Never coming here again! And the food is mediocre at best. Concha toast was good, and the shrimp taco was pretty big. We also ordered the chilaquiles and the plate was small. Not to mention the $12 extra they charge for the smallest piece of steak. Save your money and go somewhere else!"
