“Delicious steak! the beans are really good and the portions are always generous. The enchilada sauce is just right. Very kind hostess as well. The horchata isn’t the craziest but we surely drank it all lol. A few tables but not a whole lot of room to eat inside but is perfect for takeout.

Vegetarian options: veggie tortas, veggie burritos, veggie nachos, etc.“

“Cute place with so many treats great for late night snack 😋“

“I've been wanting to go to this restaurant because I heard so much about it.So I had my son take me. The food was okay, very overpriced. they have a special from 3 to 6. The only way you find out is when you go in the bathroom and look at the wall, the advertisement. tacos are from $5-7 dollars. 😒“

The music adds to to the vibe. Locals must love this place.“

“SoCal burrito 🔥🔥🔥🔥 @ new Alsip location.“

“Me and my friends stopped by here as a little pit stop to visit a friend of mine and i can not believe how good the food is. The service was amazing and got us our refills VERY fast….questionably fast. But they were all very very nice. Back to the food. Amazing. It was so good that one day we drove 1 and a half hours just to show our peers the deliciousness that was presented before us.

Overall: good place with good food lol“

“Como Cristiana me encanta visitar. Cuando me toca cerca de la TV le bajan al volumen para que la música secular no retumbe en mi oído. La birria y el pozole es lo que más pido pero todo tiene su gran sazón. Un excelente lugar para disfrutar, solo o en familia . Me encanta.“

“delicioso muy recomendable 👍“

“OMG! We found this place on a whim, looking for GF in Oak Lawn for last minute lunch options. Stumbled upon this GEM! I am no vegan, but the flavor profile is so spot on. Casandra was so amazing, putting together a random taco tray that was so delicious! And A+++ for presentation! Thank you Abuelita Coco, we will be back :)“

“I drove 35 minutes for a birria pizza and they didn't give us the consomme. Food was good though.“

“Absolutely love the food it’s always on point, always super fresh and made with love and care, would highly recommend to anyone (:
My favorite options are the elote/corn in a cup. Chilaquiles verdes & would also recommend the Nacho Supreme!“

“Good tacos in the SW suburbs. I will be back to try the burrito.“

“This place was so good! My boyfriend, baby, and I came here to dine in yesterday and the food was phenomenal. We were looking for queso barria tacos on google and they showed up. The server was awesome. They didn’t have a kids menu but I asked if they can do rice and eggs for the baby and they did just that he loved his meal as well! The cook even came to talk to us for a bit which I thought was pretty cool…very personalable! We will definitely be coming back! Thank you for your service 😁“

“It is heartwarming to see a family working hard and earning a living. It is take out only. We had the steak burrito and it was tasty and the meat was in generous portions and it was nice and hot on a cold rainy day. The prices are the best.$9.55 for a steak burrito is unbeatable. I highly recommend this place. Honest and hardworking folk.“

“Good food and great customer service“

“The service is wonderful and the food is delicious. Also not expensive“

“Cute little restaurant that you might miss from the street if you didn't know it was there. The booth was comfortable and the service was good. I got a frozen strawberry margarita and it was a good size for the price and very tasty. Their fresh guacamole was delicious! I could almost have made a meal out of that. I got an asada burrito suiza. It was almost 12 inches long and stuffed with meat. The asada was tender and had very good flavor, obviously seasoned well. I could only eat half. I got the dinner, so it came with rice and beans. I loved the beans. They were extremely light and creamy. My husband loved them as well. He got the chicken and shrimp fajitas, which he really enjoyed. Had to take a lot home because the plate was filled almost to overflowing. He said the seasoning on the fajitas was very good and it came with guac that I don't think extra. My stepmom got a burrito bowl, which she really enjoyed. My dad got the shrimp with chipotle crema. He said it was very good. It came with tortillas to make tacos out of if you wanted. He was just eating the shrimp in the delicious sauce all on its own. Overall, very enjoyable dinner and we will definitely go back!“

“The Birria Tacos Are So Good...“

“Great food with the BEST service!“

“Went in tonight and Girl is wiping her nose with her hand and then packing food and carrots/peppers. Made me sick to my stomach seeing her touch my food with WHATEVER secretions were on her hand! The cooks were wiping the sweat off their foreheads and then cooking the food! No hand washing tonight🤮“

“I be out there around to stop in try it out not far from the area“

“I always come here to practice my Spanish and they're so nice and helpful. The food is a delicious reward. I've been going for almost a year and they have always been incredible people with incredible food. I feel incredibly safe and comfortable here.“

“Was at office next store saw they had tortas so asked if they did shrimp tortas as they also did shrimp burritos got that instead with avocado added.

Burrito was good, shrimp seemed cooked and fresh (although the first one I ate still had some shell or pieces of the tail on it, mistakes happen though.

Still was tasteful, bit heavy on cilantro but overall worth the 15 dollars or so I paid for it, would go back for sure.

Inside was nothing special but it was clean had decent seating for so small a space and they seemed to have lots of stuff to offer on the menu.“

“The food is absolutely delicious and the staff is excellent!!“

“Finally tried the pizza last night and it was delicious!!!“

“My brother and I got the quesabirria, birria tacos, and loaded nachos. The food was made fresh, and was quick to make. The food was incredible, very well seasoned and so flavorful. The amount of meat was honestly amazing, they did not skimp out. Our server was so sweet, and checked in on us multiple times. The restaurant looked clean, and the bathroom had both a urinal and toilet which were very clean. Awesome experience, can’t wait to be back soon!“

“Taco dinner was very good. Loved the horchata!! The restaurant is very nice and cozy. The only negative thing I can add is the wait time on the to go order.“
