"This place is GREAT on the week day, but the weekend forget about it, all the hetros pile in, with their KIDS, why do they invade our gay restaurants?" CPBill:
"I can't stress enough how charming Home Bistro is! EVERY time I go there I vow to return.

This is the second location of the family owned Cesar's, home of the "Killer Margarita," serving 8 margaritas, 18 Tequilas and a half a dozen Mexican beers.

Come for the great mix-and-match combo platters, but stay for the out-of-this-world margaritas.

"Love Mananitas! Very important for a gal from Texas!
Great salsa, the queso fundido is great too! Good 'ritas, great ropa vieja and enchiladas verdes!! <3
If you're lucky, Norma will be your waitress:)
Also great for ppl watching - both inside this great restau and the ppl on Halsted through their huge windows:)" surferinchig:
"Well, looks like the first guy to review Las Mananitas was obviously knee deep in Margarita juice and willing to explore the pleasures of man to man lovin' while his poor wife sat at home cryin' and too busy to realize that the food here is a little, how do I put this? Scary, at times and ok, others.
Granted, Las Mananitas does have some of the best property for summer swillin' outside but aside from that, nothing else. I'm always tempted to check in the kitchen to see if they have plates of food ready to go just in case someone orders one that they have already prepared. The food comes out to you a mere few minutes after you order. At least, that is my experience. Maybe it's the margaritas making time fly, whatever it is, I don't know. Either way, I will always come here for a lazy summer afternoon. Enjoy a pitcher of Mag's with my honey and share a plate of nachos. Then head home for some real food."
