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.

Best moderately price Mexican place north of Texas I have ever been to. Great ambiance, drinks, food, you name it. Service has been somewhat spotty in recent months, but food is still the best. I like the Chorripollo, which is a huge chicken breast pounded flat and marinated in a red picante sauce of some sort. Then, it is covered with white cheese and a generous sprinkling of chorizo, served on a plate with arroz y frijoles. Flour tortillas are also served. Sometimes, they have a mariachi band floating around. If you dont see what you want they are very nice about fixing it for you anyhow. If I'm not real hungry I will ask for 2 quesadillas with chorizo and even though its not on the menu they are more than glad to fix it for me. Same guy also owns another place called Guadalajara on the south side of town. Same menu, if you don't like college kids you can go there instead. Should add too that if you are in town to visit your college kid who is too embarrassed to be seen with his/her parents Guadalajara works nice too :)

Best Mexican restaurant in Decatur! My top dishes are as follows: -Chile Colorado (steak strips served in a spicy sauce) -Tacos Guadalajara (three steak/chorizo tacos) -Nachos Fajita (fajita meat and veggies - I like steak/chorizo or chicken/chorizo best) -Arroz con Pollo (just like it sounds...chicken...rice...with a heavy drizzle of queso dip!) -Fajita Quesadilla -Enchiladas Suizas (pork enchiladas with chile verde sauce)

Was just thinking about things I love and miss from home and Mi Pueb came to mind! Sign me up for a strong long island and chicken fajita quesadilla and I am one happy girl! They are speedy, consistent, generous and reasonably priced. It's a given you'll run into at least 3 people you know with the same craving for Mi Pueb everytime you go, you may have a quick chat or just a nod of recognition because you both know how great it is. Perfect every time!

Very good food. Friendly fast service. Good prices. I'm satisfied. The only negative were the chips (they were edible but I've had better). I had Chicken Pollo. Chicken was tender and seasoned perfectly. First time visit today. I'll go back when I'm in town.

Driving in June from Springfield to Decatur's airport to catch a flight (Air Choice One to St. Louis), I consulted yelp for restaurant advice and decided to try Mi Pueblito; it was an excellent pick! The restaurant is very roomy and seems to attract a steady crowd of locals, both Hispanic and otherwise; service was quick and pleasant; and the dish I ordered was large and delicious (that's all I remember of it, a few months after the fact). Mints were served with the check. If passing through Decatur again, I'd gladly return.

Fantastic food. Can't wait to come back. Margarita was a little too sugary but the food was off the charts.
(5)Stephanie C.
I love this place. The food is always fantastic and arrives very fast. The wait staff is so friendly. Go eat here you will not regret it.
(5)Bryan P.
Strong okay, but certainly not great. I'm going to blame it on me and say I ordered poorly. The combination #4: one beef taco, one enchilada, and one tostada. It all looked different but all tasted the same. The chips and salsa are very good and the house margarita (rocks w/salt) was excellent.

A hometown favorite! Decatur has several good Mexican restaurants, but this is the go-to for my family and friends. The chips and salsa are worth over-indulging as I always do at Mexican places. I recommend ordering the cheese dip as well. As far as the menu, I don't think you can go wrong. I usually stick to fajitas, a quesadilla, or a combo plate. But from others who branch out more, I know the other entrees are good, too. Anything with cheese or cheese sauce on it will probably be de-lish! And fried ice cream......yes!
(4)Tari P.
After a slow start, I have to say the chips & salsa were fantastic, as was our food. We will be back!!

Was just passing through the area and took a shot based on the positive yelp reviews. The food was very bland and unimpressive. In fact, I would even say it was closer to poor vs average. The chips and salsa were ok and the service was awesome. Too bad this place was a bust- seriously, hit Taco Bell before this place- at least you know what you are getting there.

Great service, great food, and cheap. Mi Pueblito is our favorite Mexican joint in central illinois. Mi Pueblito overcomes being located in a stripmall and not the best part of Decatur.(yes, there are good parts) My favorite here is the lunch steak fajita quesadilla. Never disappoints. Same owners as Guadalajara in Decatur they tell me.
(4)Shane A.

I haven't tried all of the Mexican restaurants in town, but I have tried most of them, and "Mi Pueb" is the best by far. I lived in California for many years, and though the Mexican cuisine here isn't on the same level as what you can find out there, this place is still quite good and the best around. I highly recommend it. My favorites: the Chile Colorado and the Enchiladas Suizas.

This is the best Mexican place I have ever been to. Not just in Decatur, anywhere. They have cheese sauce that is so good you will get withdrawal after not having it for a while. My favorite is the Aroz con Pollo. It. Is. AMAZING! There is plenty of other great food on the menu as well. The combinations they have are great. The drink specials are different for each day of the week and are a great deal. The staff there is the best I have ever come across as well. They are in a constant rush and always do their best to please. The atmosphere is light-hearted and fun. If you are in town, you NEED to visit this place. Weekends around dinner the place is usually packed by families and college students alike, but the wait is WELL worth it. I have frequented the place for years now and still have yet to be disappointed. GO HERE, YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!

Our fav Mexican food in town...place is clean....wait staff nice!

This is probably my favorite Mexican restaurant. Like, ever. Anywhere. Seriously, can't go wrong here. You will have withdrawals. The chips and salsa here are top-notch and arrive at your table warm & fresh. Get the cheese dip and the guacamole! The entrees at this hometown/college favorite are very reasonably priced. I'm a huge fan of the Enchiladas Verdes. They have other combination entrees that are great and I recommend the seafood entrees as well. Lunch specials are also worth an honorable mention! The drink specials are different everyday and my favorite is the frozen margarita pitcher special. This place is very easy-going, but the service is fast and friendly. They work hard to please! Expect to wait a while on the weekends - college kids come out and take over for a bit! If you wait, it'll be SO SO SO worth it!

This is a very complex place to rate. To start, the restaurant is very dirty and run down...but I admit that sometimes leads to the best meals. So you walk in and hope your tetanus shot is current. I listened to fellow yelps and had the cheese sauce for chips. Yes...it was incredible. The marinated chicken is also delicious so they got that going for them. Two in group complained the taco meat (ground beef) was very salty. I tried it and agreed that it lacks a Mexican flavor and is mainly just salt and cumin. Service was pretty good and our server was very attentive with drinks and checking on us. Overall, a solid 3.5 to 4 star.

Authentic? Yikes. No mole. No tamales. No nopalitos. Yes, the chips and salsa were fine. The salt shaker didn't burst into flame at any time, and there was no broken glass in my Marcos Special... The best service, fairly clean, and above average food. But if this is as good as it gets, i suppose it's saying more about Decatur than this restaurant. In all fairness, the food is good enough for 3.5 stars... But something had to counteract the zombie "best most authentic Mexican this side of Jaurez" posts...

Great food! Great drinks! Decent service. All things considered, an awesome Mexican restaurant.
(4)Davianne K.
Great food, although it is very Americanized. Clean facilities and fast service. The cheese sauce and margaritas are my favorite. This restaurant is mainly visited by college kids.
(4)Sally Y.
This is my favorite "Mexican" place to eat in all of Decatur. Of course this isn't in any way authentic Mexican food, but it definitely hits the spot for your fajita, taco, burrito craving! The food is always fantastic every single time, so you know exactly the deliciousness to expect. Service is fast and friendly, and the price is perfect! Only downside...you'll leave smelling like the place and very likely with onion breath. Make sure to have some gum and Febreeze in the car!
(4)Talha S.
Good Food--Great seating--Excellent Service! I didn't have too many expectations to begin with, but this place will surely be my frequent dinner spots from now on. Their chips and salsa didn't impress me too much, but the menu is pretty great with a lot to choose from. I had the Fajita Quesadilla which was delicious.
