Friends of ours used El Mana for a high school graduation party, it was so good we used them. The staff comes ready with a flat top grill and all the sides for tacos. Beef, Chicken, Al Pastor, pico de gallo, guacamole, rice, beans. Amazing. Our party was in Arlington Heights IL and they made the trip. Worth it for a catering event

On 5/26/2025 Steven B. had this to say:
During a long weekend in Chicago I was staying nearby El Mana so based on the Yelp reviews it seemed like a great place to grab some dinner. El Mana is just a small storefront restaurant in a corner plaza. Inside is very basic, no real decor, simple tables and chairs. The clientele seems to be mainly Hispanic which is always a good sign. For such a small place the menu is fairly extensive including breakfast and a whole page of seafood entrees. I ended up ordering the Camerones Al Mojo De Ajo (shrimp in garlic sauce). While waiting for my food I enjoyed the chips and salsa, good flavor and fresh, although the salsa was a bit salty. In about 10 minutes my food came out nicely presented on a pretty fish shaped dish, a large portion of shrimp, rice and a simple salad topped with fresh avocado slices and some warm flour tortillas. The shrimp were excellent plump and meaty in a zippy sauce laced with garlic. The rice was a great compliment, while the salad gave a nice fresh crisp element to the meal. Overall an excellent meal and a great dinner. El Mana is a great place to get some excellent Mexican food at a reasonable price, portions are generous, flavors a big, bold and straightforward. Service was good, but this is not a high end place, really not much to see and really nothing except great food.
