Rockford: Order the Fajitas August 18
National Fajita Day is on August 18, so head out to a local Mexican restaurant to enjoy these simple yet delicious dishes. They're made from marinated slices of meat—often steak or chicken—and grilled onion and peppers and other toppings, all on a soft flour tortilla.
Whether it's National Fajita Day or any day you're craving these tasty entrees, our real estate agents suggest trying the following Rockford Mexican restaurants.
- Dos Reales Mexican Restaurant - 5855 E. State Rd., Rockford, IL 61108
Dos Reales Mexican Restaurant has served up fajitas and other popular Mexican dishes for over 20 years, earning a loyal following in the area. Try a vegetarian fajita or one with your choice of several sizzling grilled meats. It's made with peppers, onions, and tomatoes, and you can choose from shrimp, chicken, or steak. If you'd like an even more filling fajita, order two or three different meats. For the ultimate fajita, try the Dos Reales, which comes with chicken, steak, pork, and chorizo. - Mexico Clasico - 3929 Broadway, Rockford, IL 61108
Freshness is the key to the delicious high-quality cuisine served at Mexico Clasico. The restaurant makes guacamole table-side, using a mortar and pestle, and also makes fresh tortillas by hand. Try the steak or chicken fajitas on the Monday lunch menu, or visit for dinner and order your choice of steak, chicken, or shrimp fajitas. You can choose one, two, or three different meats. The La Abuela, with steak, chicken, chorizo, and carnitas, and the Fajita Suiza, with chicken, steak, and shrimp and topped with melted cheese, are also available and are popular with customers. - Fuego Nuevo Grill - 6876 Spring Creek Rd., Rockford, IL 61114
Fuego Nuevo Grill puts a twist on traditional Mexican cuisine, updating recipes from their ancestors in a modern way. If you're stopping by the restaurant for lunch, try the Burrito Fajita, with your choice of wood-fire grilled chicken, steak, or shrimp. A larger portion of the dish is available on the dinner menu, or try the Fajitas Patron if you'd like some variety with the meats. You can choose from chicken and steak together, or all three meats. The Fajitas Fuego has steak and chicken and adds carnitas and chorizo. Chimichanga Fajitas and Quesadilla Fajitas are also on the menu, as is a vegetarian fajita. - Fiesta Tequila Bar & Grill - 1060 W. Riverside Blvd., Rockford, IL 61103
Fresh ingredients are used to prepare food at Fiesta Tequila Bar & Grill, where you can choose from an array of yummy dishes. If you'd like to order fajitas, you'll have a number of choices. Try steak or chicken fajitas, or fajitas that also add shrimp, chorizo, or pork. If you're in the mood for seafood, the Cancun Fajitas with shrimp, scallops, crab, and fish fits the bill. And for even more variety, the restaurant also offers Fajitas Rancheras with steak, chicken, shrimp, and bacon, and Fajitas Hawaiianans with chicken, shrimp, ham, and fresh sliced pineapple. - Mi Ranchito - 2019 S. Main St., Rockford, IL 61102
Since 1988, Mi Ranchito has served fresh, made-to-order authentic Mexican dishes. The cozy, family-owned restaurant is open for breakfast as well as lunch and dinner, so you can get your fix of Mexican food throughout the day. The menu is relatively small but includes interesting dishes such as tripe and goat soup. When you're ready for fajitas, steak and chicken varieties are available.
