By far the best pollo rostizado I have had. The salsa compliments the chicken perfectly. They also have good meal packs.

I visited today, and I love how welcoming and friendly they are! I got a taco dinner de asada, horchata and some fries. Everything about it was really good! Everything is priced great, I will for sure come back and eat again!

El Chisme Express is a hidden gem in the neighborhood. I ordered the Super Pack—whole chicken, rice, beans, fries, guacamole, grilled chiles, chips, and a 2-liter soda. The chicken was juicy and flavorful, and the sides were spot on. The fries were crispy, and the guacamole had just the right kick. Service was fast and friendly. Definitely my go-to spot for a hearty, satisfying meal.

El Chisme Express in Chicago's West Lawn neighborhood is a reliable spot for flavorful Mexican comfort food. Their rotisserie chicken is a standout—tender, juicy, and perfectly seasoned. The Super Pack, which includes chicken, rice, beans, tortillas, grilled jalapeños, grilled onions, and guacamole, offers great value and is perfect for sharing. While the atmosphere is casual and family-friendly, the service can be a bit slow during peak hours. Overall, it's a solid choice for satisfying Mexican fare.

First time having food from here and the first time I ever felt the need to leave a review. If you haven’t tried El Chisme Express yet, you’re seriously missing out. Their food is packed with bold, authentic flavor, but the real star of the show? The rotisserie chicken. It’s phenomenal — juicy, perfectly seasoned, and cooked to absolute perfection. You can taste the love and care that goes into every bite. The crispy skin and tender meat are a match made in flavor heaven. Whether you're grabbing a quick bite or ordering a full meal, El Chisme Express delivers every time. Friendly service, generous portions, and food that hits the spot — this place is definitely a local gem. Highly recommend.
