Generous portions, friendly service, and authentic Mexican food
We’ll Take Care of You
When you take the time to come to El Cid, you know you’ll be taken care of. The healthy portions, friendly service, and authentic Mexican food that have been feeding our community for so many years are available for your showers, parties, meetings and more.
Our entire menu is available to you for brunch, lunch or dinner!
All of our authentic Mexican entreés and appetizers can be prepared for large groups in our vibrant event space, for pick-up, or for delivery straight to the venue of your gathering in Logan Square and the surrounding Chicago area.
It’s El Cid style… your way!

Excellent Service, Delicious Food & Private Spaces Year Round
Your party of 30-50 guests can enjoy a fresh buffet made from scratch for any meal from brunch to dinner in our private lounge, any day of the week. We can make almost anything vegetarian, gluten free or both. Did we mention our homemade aguas frescas and made-to-order margaritas? Smaller groups can be served family style or a la carte, and a party of any size can enjoy drinks by our full-service bartender.
Breakfast & Brunch
If you’re joining us for breakfast or brunch, impress your guests with our coffee service, mimosas and micheladas, and savory selections from our full breakfast menu—did someone say “chilaquiles”?
Whether you want to cozy up next to the fireplace this winter or enjoy the patio in fair weather, we have the perfect space for your event.
