Vela’s Restaurant & Lounge - Joliet (IL)

5 /5 Olivia Godbee: We are here almost 3 years ago. Sooo many Mexican restaurants to choose from everywhere. This was a dive in the best way. So friendly. Best service. Great food great drinks. That being said, we couldn’t remember the name and spent three years trying to find it again and finally did today!! And as amazing as always. Local friendly and 5 star service!!!

5 /5 SuperBones6: Same great enchilada dinner recipe from30 years ago!

4 /5 Tony Anczer: As a busy real estate agent on the go, Vela’s Tap is a great stop for a quick bit with great quality. Would be 5 stars but price is a bit high - $11.50 for a burrito is a bit higher than other options.

5 /5 Live Love Laugh: Wonderful friendly place. Cant wait to go again. I enjoyed the drinks, slots, food and the wonderful conversation. Keep up the good work.

5 /5 m b: Old fashioned bar/restaurant with no taps; the decor is straight from the 90s and should stay that way. Ordered a taco dinner, al pastor, Mexican style, with everything but guac, one of the best Ive ever had. Aide was sweet, courteous, and her service came with a smile. I went in early because I work nights, so I cant comment on the rest of the day, but this was one nice place at lunchtime! Get yourself in!
