El Mero Mero - Schaumburg

We also ordered frozen margaritas—one mango and one strawberry—and they truly tasted like fresh fruit rather than a pre-made mix, which was amazing. Just a heads-up: these drinks are massive and quite filling! The interior of the restaurant has a modern feel and is also designed as a sports bar. If you're looking to sit outside, they have a nice courtyard in the front with plenty of outdoor seating, weather permitting. As for parking, it’s located at the back of the strip mall, so you'll need to access it from the side street rather than the main road.

El Mero Mero has become one of our go-to restaurants, and for good reason. Their menu consistently impresses, and the drinks pair perfectly with the delicious food. The welcoming atmosphere enhances every visit.

This restaurant serves the best Mexican food I’ve ever tasted. The staff is fantastic, and the outdoor seating area is lovely. I absolutely love the fajitas, tacos, and the churros are the best I’ve ever had. My family and I are regulars here! Kid-friendliness: Very accommodating for kids!

Such a great spot! Awesome outdoor patio area. I ordered based on server recommendation (thanks, Ryan! and he was right on point—meal was delicious!

Solid Mexican place! Not the best, but not the worst either. I’ve been a few times and my fajitas just seemed like they needed more seasoning. I understand it’s tough with everyone preferring different salt levels, but I’m used to fajitas being more flavorful. That being said; the salsa is delicious, servers are nice, and the churros are definitely a must try. I’ll be back to try some more dishes and see if anything wows me.
