    We were not expecting this place to be so loud and overcrowded and it really ruined the evening for us. The music is blasting like you’re in a night club with the base vibrating in your chest the whole time, it’s way too much in my opinion and quite headache inducing. The decorations & ambiance are really beautiful, but you feel squished in like sardines at the table because it’s so packed and the space between the table and booth seat is too narrow. The drinks were not good, although the presentation was absolutely stunning, the ceviche was really sweet and the guacamole needed salt for sure. But the main problem was the level of loudness and a few at our table couldn’t handle it and we left without ordering entrees. This would be a great place to go for people who love social media & taking pictures, who also enjoy the “club like” experience at dinner.

    We traveled from California to Chicago to take part in the Hacienda Calavera adventure, and it was an unforgettable experience. The service at the restaurant was outstanding, and I requested a personalized menu for the birthday girl, which added a special touch to the occasion. The food and drinks were both delicious and perfectly crafted. The mariachi performance for the birthday celebration created a festive and lively atmosphere. To top it off, the dessert was truly exceptional—an enormous chocolate calavera surrounded by churros and berries, a delightful treat for the taste buds.
