I know of two: La Fonda at Lawrence and Clark, and Las Tablas on Lincoln just south of Wellington.

: Any good ones???

I've enjoyed both places.

Pueblito Viejo on Lincoln just north of Berwyn by a block or two.

Very limited menu, and mostly good late nights on weekends.  Whacky latin disco late at night on Fridays and Saturdays.  I would only go on weekends because of they don't have specials during the week and the specials are the best things on the menu.  Specials include: arroz con pollo and sobrebarriga (latin pot roast more or less).  From the regular menu, they also have great tamales and a really good fried steak with garlic.  The also have the usual stuff -- fried plantains and yuca etc...  They make a fine (although admittedly cheesy/chemical) strawberry margarita.  Open quite late on weekends -- until around 2:30 or 3:00, I believe.

Enjoy,
Adam
