Family got together for a little celebration here. The creations were very interesting but liked authentic Mexican flavor. Several dishes were a mish mosh of ingredients that added up to something-just not real Mexican.

I live near Harvard and my best friend lives in Chicago. This is a perfect mid-point for us to both take the train and meet in Arlington Heights. There are quite a few very good dining spots here, but Salsa 17 has become our favorite. Not the least reason is a server, Marisol, that we've been lucky enough to have most times we're there. The prices are just a scooch high, but not enough to go somewhere else. The Margaritas are terrific, incuding a "skinny" low cal version. I've had several dishes, and everyone has been very good, so have no apprehension at ordering your favorite, feeling confident that it will be satisfying and filling. I can't pick a favorite yet, I'm still experimenting with something different every time we go.Tableside prepared Guacamole is very tasty and fresh. Even when very crowded, service is good and attentive.

The food was good and the service was outstanding as well. I was not a huge fan of the house margarita because I thought it was too sweet but my wife liked it. I would go back for the food and the beer prices werenât too bad.

This place was recommended by a friend who lives in the area. Went on a weeknight with three others and we were seated immediately. Pleasant place with a small bar (maybe 10-12 stools). Without collusion, three of us settled on "Mia's Enchiladas." You can choose any combination of filling: cheese, chicken or ground beef. Accompanied by potatoes and carrots, you also have your choice of sauces. I went with the mole. The whole thing, with lettuce, cheese and sour cream, was delicious. Dessert was donuts! I shared 5 small donuts with another eater. They came with cinnamon dusting and a chocolate dipping sauce. Add a good selection of beers and specialty drinks and you have a nice Mexican dinner. I'm told there is another one of these in another suburban town. If I'm near either, I'm stopping in to take another pass at this delicious-looking menu. Service was great. Parking is on-street but was not a problem. About $25 apiece including drinks and dessert.
