“We would like to express our gratitude and appreciation to The Local Tavern partner who supported Wisloka Chicago team in the UPSL interstate semi-pro league. Thanks to your generous support, our club is in the place that few years ago we could only dream about. Big applause for you 🔝🔝🔝🤝🤝🤝 🟢⚪️“

“This place is decent, the food is good, although sometimes they are hard chunks in the meat. But I think that's in a lot of restaurants that use fresh meat. Especially if you use the cheaper cuts. Which I do not like. But if you get expensive cut that means the meal is going to be more expensive. Which I do not like. Lol otherwise this place is okay the tables are a little sticky, but that's due to the customers not the employees.“

“It’s been about six months since we’ve ordered from chipotle. For the reason they kept messing up the order, what a turnaround. we ordered lunch from there today and everything was right on point. We ordered the chicken burrito bowl and the chicken burrito, chips and salsa and their new Adobo ranch sauce. If you haven’t tried that Adobo Ranch you need to, it was phenomenal. They need to bottle it up and put it on the shelves in the store. It was amazing. The location I went to the line was down to the front door. looked like they were a little shorthanded. we waited 10 extra minutes from our pickup time.
They kept apologizing for the delay.
It was definitely worth the wait!“

“This restaurant is the best! Service is excellent, friendly staff, best Mexican food ever. Different things on menu than usual fare. Place very clean. Soups, homemade drinks, and cakes are out of this world. You will not be disappointed! You gotta come here.“

“Outstanding! Highly recommended Knowledgeable, friendly staff and incredible experience“

“Amazing tacos, especially the al pastor and the fresh made guacamole just topped it off! We came to this place on the first day of our stay, basing ourselves on all the great reviews, and had no reason to look for any other tacos places for the rest of our trip.“

“I highly recommend Manchamanteles Restaurant! My dining experience was exceptional from start to finish. The food was outstanding, with each dish expertly prepared and presented. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made sure we felt welcome. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it the perfect spot for any occasion. I will definitely be returning when in town!“

“The flavors were great in general. However, the salsa was essentially tomato sauce and a big disappointment. The guacamole needed some garlic or green onion or salt. The only other problem was the salad had very little (if any) dressing. The tacos and the special quesadillas were great. Service was good. Overall, good enough that we will be back.“

“Tacos con sazón muy buenos . Y servicio excelente. Precio justo .“

“I’ve written several reviews about this restaurant because I just can’t say enough. Best Mexican food, excellent service. Cute, intimate setting you must try for yourself. BYOB. I’ve gone on record to say that I had the best steak I have ever had, with their skirt steak in their Tampiquena dish.“

“La comida está deliciosaaaaa😍 quedé impresionada con los jugosos tacos y sobre todo la Quesabirria😍🤤“

“The food and drinks were good, the service was attentive and friendly but let the buyer beware! The waitstaff asked: "Celebrating a birthday?" Let us get you some shots! This happened twice however, all the shots ended up on our bill and it was $56 for four shots! Twice!“

“Happened upon this darling restaurant while in Chicago. Really good service and fantastic food. The coconut shrimp was probably the best I have ever had. And the elote was amazing.“

“These brisket fries I had were like a meal, so good, definitely would share as an appetizer next time with friends. Went for happy hour, loved the $8 frozen margarit, do the swirl! Bar tenders, think names were Shawn and Tyler, were great, if you ever go, ask Tyler something dumb, dude is hilarious! Great service, great time! Good place for a date or to hang with friends for sure!“

“The vibes of this place was a real throwback! And the taco combo- YUM! Comes with a side of guac, chips, rice, beans, and chicharron! My favorite is the chicken tinga and al pastor 🔥 Shoutout to Luz that took our order, she is incredibly sweet!“

“Onions and cilantro is on my top spots for tacos! How it isn’t more know is beyond me! I will say it is amazing! The food speaks for itself. Beyond Amazing!

“An absolute neighborhood gem! The food was fresh and delicious. From the minute my husband and I walked in we felt super welcomed. The owner, Dr. Lulu is so kind, funny, and welcoming. We live in the neighborhood and decided to give it a try. Great pozole, great nachos, fantastic lengua, asada cut for tacos is perfecta and tasty, and the fish tacos are actual fish—sooo good! We enjoyed the hospitality and we will definitely be returning! Try the café de casa! Delicious! It was also very nice to see how many regulars she has. You could tell everyone enjoyed Dr. Lulu’s bright personality .“

“Oooooorale’! We found another hidden gem! (Well not really hidden, lol) este restaurante está riquísimo! For all of you non-Spanish speakers, this place is delicious! It looks small from the outside, but it’s enormous in flavor! It’s a very cute and nicely decorated place. Staff is incredibly nice and helpful. But the food… it rocks! We ordered the Orden de Quesobirria and a Carne en su Jugo and a Agua de Jamaica (hibiscus water) and a Horchata (rice water). The Carne stew was delicious! So many levels of flavors. The birria was fantastic! Levels and levels of flavor. Will definitely be back for the Menudo this weekend. See you all here!“

As soon as we entered, all of the employees greeted us with a smile, and a hello the atmosphere was extremely welcoming and made us extremely excited.. We let our waitress. Maria know that it was our first time she assured us that we would be satisfied. We were indeed satisfied I highly recommend this place. Please go check them out.“

“As always Chef Paco and his amazing team never disappoints. EVERYTHING on the menu is phenomenal so you can’t go wrong. My favorite dishes are the Fiesta Mole and Tacos Chetumal. His Tortilla Soup is also the best in the world. Highly recommend this place for the food, ambience and of course Chef Paco! Oh My God!!“

“Ever since our former far north side Mexican go-to restaurant had a fire and reopened without the same quality of food we used to love, my partner and I have been looking for a new delivery and eat-in joint. We love how awesome the universe of Mexican food is here in Chicago but a lot of the eateries on the far north side are just kind of meh. Nobody deserves to eat meh Mexican food in Chicago, ever. It took us a year and a half to finally find Taqueria El Charro and we’re completely blown away. I’ve lived in Chicago for 21 years and he’s lived in Chicago almost as long. I used to teach English in Pilsen. Once I had a chance to move back home to New York City and I sat in a Chicago Mexican restaurant at 18th and Ashland and cried because I didn’t want to leave Chicago Mexican food behind. So, this place has some of the best Mexican food I have ever eaten here in my adopted hometown. I don’t say that lightly. You don’t kid around with Mexican food in Chicago. I cannot emphasize how quietly awesome this place is.“

“Amazing food and service!!!! Also call ahead for their sushi menu which is delicious ❤️❤️❤️“

“Mejor birria que yo comido“

“The food is amazing and we enjoy all the time and the service is excellent.“

“Everything was delicious! We went to Hoja Santa and loved every bite. The butternut squash was surprisingly amazing so flavorful. The ribeye was cooked perfectly, juicy and full of taste. The bone marrow was incredible. You can really tell how much care goes into each dish. The atmosphere was great and the service was excellent Katherine is super friendly and attentive. We'll definitely be coming back!“

“Hands-down, my favorite taco place in Chicago. The tacos are amazing and so is the service. Authentic , and great tasting! Amazing meat choices, and tasty agua frescas. Is Cash Only. If you ever want tacos and are in the portage Park area come to taco Feliz.“

“I had a craving for some good halal Mexican food, and my friend recommended this place! I wasn’t sure what to order, but the worker Shayaan gave me lots of options and told me what he recommended! I had a great experience, and the food was delicious! Will be making this my regular spot!“

“Consistently excellent friendly service and fresh, delicious authentic food.“

“Fresh and good flavor. Not a big menu but burrito was outstanding.“

“Food is fantastic .. the steak torta is soooo good Definitely a place to visit when you are in Chicago. I will be back“

“The food and customer service are phenomenal! I cannot wait to go back.“

“Delicious! Tried their carne asada tacos & quesadilla with the homemade corn tortilla. Would highly recommend. 🌮🌮🌮🌮🌮“

“I think i have rated this place in the past, but this is my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE TAQUERIA. THE STEAK TACOS ARE FYYYYYYYEERRR...so damn good. I live in the south suburbs and this place is so worth the trip. Food, service and atmosphere TOP TIER!!!“

“The Marysville Taco Pros is always a great experience. We eat there weekly and we have never had a bad experience. It's the highlight of our week. Food is fresh, not loaded with salt, and the tortilla shells are delicious. Definitely a great addition to Marysville!“

“Son Los Mejores Tacos Que E Probado y Apesar de que están Muy Ricos Son Muy Limpios y Te Atienden Bien“

“DELICIOUS! The best chilaquiles in Chicago without a doubt. I'm from CDMX and they are the only ones who know Mexico. The sauce is spicy, the cream is liquid, the jerky melts in your mouth, all very greasy just like in the city haha.
If you miss Mexico or have never been and want to know what good chilaquiles taste like, this is the right place.

Of course, it takes time because the place is small and there is usually a line.“

“Just amazing! Best ever! Highly recommend!“

“Amazing traditional Mexican food and drinks, friendly and professional staff!“
