the Outpost Mexican Eatery

Stopped by The Outpost Mexican Eatery near the Old Post Office and was pleasantly surprised. Ordered the 3-taco combo with al pastor, chorizo, and steak, each taco was packed with flavor and came with a generous amount of meat. The tortillas were soft and fresh, and the green salsa added the perfect kick. Also grabbed a side of elote, which was creamy and perfectly seasoned. All that for about $16. Service was quick and friendly, and the spot had a chill vibe. Definitely a great find for a tasty and affordable meal in the Loop.

You wouldn’t believe how delicious the tacos are, especially at this location by union station. Sooooo good!

I swung by during their $2 Taco Tuesday and grabbed three tacos—chicken, chorizo, and steak. I also tried their elote street corn, which was a game-changer—fire-roasted corn smothered in lime aioli, Cotija cheese, and chili powder. Total damage was around $12, and I left stuffed. Definitely a go-to for affordable, tasty Mexican eats in the area.​

Terrible service through Grubhub!

This is where you get a great burrito with all the fixings. I like the freshness and choice of burrito bowl plus 2.00 tacos on Tuesday.

There is nothing special about the food. The variety was limited but covered the usual items. You won't be surprised or disappointed.

I ordered Take out from here. Got a quesadilla with ground beef, this was perfectly juicy from the beef grease (it wasn’t dripping which sometimes that could be too much), and I love so much there’s a lot of flavor in the beef with onion. I also love they give you a few cups of salsa and sour cream. Elote was delicious, too. Service was nice and quick

Five stars all the way around! Outpost accommodated our catering request that included two drop offs and the biggest jug of horchata I have ever seen! Everyone in the office loved the food, and the friendly and helpful service is so appreciated. Can't wait to order again.

The service was terrible. I asked for a bowl with no tomato, however there were tomatoes in the steak bowl. I stood for 12 minutes - I had to ask three lady to take an order. I received a free bottled water.
