    First I hate places that can't charge separate checks and this place is one, WTF! I order the ceviche de pescado and GUACALA! this looked like they ran it through the blender and tasted like tomato and onions. Should have asked how they prepare. My buddy had the huachinango al mojo d ajo which was ok just a lil dry. Felt disappointed since this mexican seafood places have somewhat of a good reputation but found it not everything they say is true. I might give it one more try with something else different but ill make sure this time I like the way they prepare it. Service was excellent, the place is nice, clean and they have a bar with lots of TEQUILA and other liquors!

    I ordered a plate of Langostinos that cost $17.99 and when my bill came it was $25. I told my waitress and showed her the price on the menu. She told me they changed the prices 2 weeks ago and were waiting for their new menus to arrive but she never told me when I asked about what came with the plate. She pointed at a 6 x 9 flyer that was 15 ft behind me in a blind spot and didn't apologize or ask her manager to honor the advertised price on the menu so I left $0 for tip & for bad service.

    I enjoy Seafood but this location has absolutely horrific service that I will never return! We were sitting down for at least 10 minutes before anybody even noticed us & the only reason our waitress came to our table was because we told someone to call our waitress! The waitress arrives & doesn't apologize! She doesn't return until the food is served and bam she's gone for the rest of the night! My dad nearly chocked because he finished his drink and she was never to be found! As I get up to leave she shows up asking if we need anything else??? Um too late sweety! It's a shame because this place is bringing down Islas reputation! I'd suggest trying the Islas in villa park, their servers at least come to your table more than twice!

    Hmmm, really surprised that this business is not on yelp yet. Oh!! I know why!! It's because this place is as authentic as it gets!!!! Only one waitperson spoke english!!! We were heading over to try this tapas place in Berwyn, but it was closed for the holidays. We passed this place and I was entranced by the neon crab in the window and i believe i saw the word "mariscos", which is something sea or ocean-related, right? So, I'm sent in to be the pigeon and I asked for a menu and was met with smiles. Eventually, they figured out what I was looking for and the one server who spoke english handed me a menu. Okay, we're in. The first thing they do is serve you some yummy fried tortillas with some shrimp ceviche and hot minced jalapenos. With the help of our waitress, we ordered the empanadas, some Guacamole, Platillo de langostinos, Tilapia filet soup, Queso fundido with shrimp and some pineapple thing: Piña rellena, basically a pineapple filled with shrimp, scallops, clams, and crabs with white sauce topped with broiled cheese and it has a hint of coconut flavor. Unique!! OMG! dinner was not cheap, but well worth it. the langostinos were out of this world. i swear it tasted like it had some salty shrimp paste (asian) used as the marinade. but they were crazy addictive. the pineapple thing was very rich and very tasty. if you want authenticity, go here. i swear i felt like i was in mexico. the place was filled with mexican families with children and mexican couples on dates. cool experience.

    We found this place on a quest to find a "new" Mexican restaurant. We chose it based on how there wasn't a line out the door, and the neon crab in the window piqued our curiosity. It appeared they had seafood--boy did they! Upon being seated we were given some house made ceviche, saltines, and tostada shells. The ceviche was great! I got the pineapple stuffed with seafood in wine sauce (they easily omitted the octopus and clams for me). Then some salty cheese was broiled over the whole thing. Yum. They had a decent selection of cervezas, and we had no problems getting another when one was gone. My husband really enjoyed his paella a lot, too. We will definitely come back here! There was even a guy walking around strumming a guitar--it was Mother's Day weekend, so not sure if he's around all the time. Oh, and they gave me a rose for Mother's Day as we were leaving (even though I told them my only ninos were gatos).

    No no no. You don't put cucumbers in my Coctel de Camaron. You just don't. I'll blame myself though for not asking them how they prepared it. I was so excited coming here after work one day. All I wanted was a little ceviche and alot of Coctel. I got both. The ceviche was really good. Not amazing good, but very much enjoyed by me and my wife. I made the mistake of ordering the Coctel warm instead of cold. My bad. I'm really giving myself 3 stars and not them since I fucked up my order in various ways. But since I'm not a restaurant I can't give that rating to myself. I'd probably be biased and give myself a 5. But, I digress. I'll have to give this spot another chance, that way I review their food properly instead of my choices poorly. I give Las Islas and I 3 zau's. On a side note, my wife also reviewed this place right after we ate here. You can probably find her review below me. Get it...BLOW ME. Double side note, I finally learned how to make my own Coctel de Camaron. Hand's down the best. I give my own Coctel 5 Zau's. If there was a Zau rated guide, it would be the top rated. It's not bias it's just fact.

    We had ceviche and shrimp cocktels. They ceviche was good! We forgot to take out the cucumbers in our cocktels and when she asked warm or cold, we assumed it would be room temp not like a hot soup. That's more of our bad than theirs. Would definitely go back and make sure we order correctly.

    We just here yesterday evening and once our food was brought to the table, my friend noticed a live worm on the rim of the plate and immediately took the plate to the waitress. The waitress returned the plate to the kitchen and came back to ask us if we were sure the worm was on the fish because the fish was deep fried!! We immediately felt sick to our stomachs as we had already ate some ceviche. We put in our coats and explained we did not want anything more and our dishes were left untouched. Still, we offered to pay for the drinks we did consume, but we were told there was no need and the waitress apologized multiple times. I feel the least the manager/cook could have done was to come out and apologize himself for the disgusting situation from HIS kitchen. I've had dinner plenty of times at other locations as the food has always been delicious and the locations clean. Sadly, i don't think I'll ever be eating here again.

    Food is okay. Customer service is HORRIBLE, yet they still charge you a 15% extra for the tip. Never coming back.

Mexican Cuisine

If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.

Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.

Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.
