Stopped here for lunch and had a great time. The staff is super friendly and welcoming.The place gives of a cool vibe. We were given chips and salsa to munch on while we decide on the menu. The salsa was so tasty, I could just keep eating the chips and salsa. We ordered the fiesta platter, shrimp tacos , and chicken fajita. For drinks we had the pina colada and mango margarita. Each of the dishes were a 10/10. The tacos were so mouthwatering delicious.Absolutely loved it. The mango margarita was by far the best margarita I have ever had. It deserves the name 'killer margarita'. You have to go to Cesar's Chicago and have their crazy good margarita!!

Cesar's was great!! It was so lively inside and you can definitely tell everyone was having a good time. Everyone is so nice there and really take their time explaining the menu. We ordered the Killer Burria and chicken burrito. These are the best tacos l've ever had!! My fiance is a big burrito guy and he really enjoyed it. We also ordered the fruity flight and the chamoy margarita. I've never enjoyed margaritas more they aren't kidding when they say home of the killer Margaritas! Don't even get me started on their churros 😍🤤

In Lakeview there a few good neighborhood Mexican restaurants and taco places. Cesar's Killer Margaritas is definitely one of them. I've been here twice in the last year, and I've enjoyed each of my visits. On my most resent trip, I tried some interesting dishes that you should try if you go here. First, I started with a frozen blueberry margarita. Of course Cesar's is famous for its huge margaritas and in a ton of different flavors. I typically get a raspberry margarita, but I enjoyed the blueberry one as it wasn't too sweet. I then tried the torti pizza. It's basically a tortilla with melted cheese and toppings. I enjoyed it, it was kinda like an open faced quesadilla or Mexican style thin pizza. I don't think I've seen anything like it at any other Mexican restaurant. I also enjoyed the carne asada and fish tacos I got. For dessert I got churros that came out hot and crispy. On my previous trip I tried their version of quesa-birria tacos. It was not a traditional quesa-birria as the meat was steak, but I enjoyed the treatment of the steak in melty cheese and crispy tacos. On all of my visits, the service was fast and friendly and food came out quickly and hot. I also enjoyed the many TVs that they have around the restaurant and in the bar area. On my last visit I watched Monday Night Football. If you are a sports fan, their bar is good place to catch a game. In sum, this good neighborhood Mexican restaurant in Lakeview that needs to on your list.

It was a bit of a slow start but once we got seated everything was great! The chamoy margarita was and piรฑa coladaโ€™s were delicious and we tried the quesabirria torta, nacho fries and fish tacos. All were really good. Think they have a good lunch menu.
