What's not to like? Margaritas, first rate. Tacos (garlic shrimp, pork belly, fish) were spot-on. Guacamole and empanadas, really nice. Friendly, attentive service. Definitely will go back.

We stopped in here yesterday because we attended something else in the neighborhood and walked past. The service was good and the food was wonderful. The inside was really nice. Clean and cute. Good variety in the bar, not just tequila. We ordered mojitos and everything was mixed on the spot and the mint was fresh. The food was good and also very fresh. And the space was conversation friendly.

Came in after touring whiskey distillery they are right next door. Was pleasantly surprised to be handed a brunch menu. Guess it was Saturday! Went with pork belly tacos. They came with sunny side up eggs on them which I was little surprised by.The tacos came with potato wedges. Ordered a michaladea with dos Equis beer.

Delicious food which started with two different types of salsa, one was fairly spicy and one was mild. Great options for vegetarians and a mezcal cocktail that was the perfect blend of smoky and sweet. Staff was extremely friendly, would most definitely eat here again.

My husband and his friends came in this past Saturday night. Brought in friends from out of town and friends who recently moved into the neighborhood, very excited to show off the secret gem that is Rojo Gusano. While the live music was entertaining the service was absolute garbage. Without exaggeration the server did not come back to the table for over 30 minutes after initially serving the food. Our table wanted to order additional drinks and the server frequented all the tables around but did not come back to ours. This left a sour taste in our book and has tainted our experience at Rojo Gusano. Incredibly disappointment with the service.
This was a pretty mid experience. It's super pretty inside and the staff was super friendly. There was live music and there was a full house. We ordered margaritas which tasted like straight up margaritas mix. I couldn't finish mine. The guac was okay. I went with the tortilla soup which was pretty good. But my friend had 3 tacos and thought they were okay

One of my favorite Mexican restaurants in the city. For one thing, the vegetarian options for tacos are more interesting, exciting, and delicious by a country mile than anything else. No boring "bean and cheese" or whatever. Squash and pepitas. The hongos. Mole cauliflower. The meat and fish options are also top notch. The mezcal drinks are amazing. Service is superb, and the location is really fun especially if you sit on the patio on Ravenswood Ave.

Some of the best chilaquiles and café de olla I've had! Only available on weekends brunch unfortunately. The pork belly tacos and shrimp empenadas were excellent as well. Really great place!
