    Steak Taco
    Samantha R.

    Overall an okay experience and apparently this neighborhood isn't known for taco places. The steak in the steak taco was cooked well and the cilantro and onions were fresh. I really enjoyed the corn tortilla too as it was fresh and soft and had good amounts of salt. My blood orange margarita however did not have any sweetness and tasted watered down so I wish I had got the rosemary one instead which was bubbly and sweeter. The guacamole was too bitter but the chips were really good and I liked that you could get as many baskets as you wanted for free.

    If you're unsure if you should where to get tacos look NO FURTHER!! LOVE antique taco!! The steak is always my fav but this time I tried the shrimp taco also that has fried kale & cauliflower on it. Yummmmmm!! Still my fav is always the steak taco 12/10! UGH I LOVE you antique taco!!! Even the chips are INCREDIBLE! Made in house with the perfect thickness, crunch & salt Don't forget the salsa! Omg I could drink it!! It's different from most traditional red salsas as it's a lil more creamy and wayyyy more flavorful than most! We spent $43 for 5 tacos and a bag of chips. Enjoyed our tacos el fresco on their cute lil patio outside. While I find the tacos to be a lillll on the expensive side, I can't be upset because they are super filling. The meat quality always seems to be good & they don't skimp on the protein portion! Also I love knowing I am supporting local. PLUS these tacos aren't super greasy and don't make me feel ill after !! Thank you Antique Taco for existing! From a taco connoisseur

    Great tacos, fantastic seafood flautas, good atmosphere, great for solo diners or groups, quick service after you order.

    We stopped at Antique taco during the Wicker Park street fest because they had a lot of outdoor seating! And even though it was crazy busy because of the fest, everything came out super fast. You order at the counter and then they'll bring your food out to you! They only had one vegetarian taco on the menu, the potato and poblano. I loved the crunch from the chips on this one! However when I was ordering, there was a sign for a mushroom taco, so I got that too! The mushroom was definitely my favorite. They were cooked in what tasted like a creamy garlic sauce that was really good. They're a little pricey for one taco, especially for the veggie ones, but overall it was a good spot for a quick dinner.

    Fried Chicken Burrito

    This place has a nice vibe and is a fun spot to bring friends for a few drinks or a meal. It's one of those spots with a menu that is on the smaller side but everything they do is top notch. The margs here are awesome and innovative. Chips and guacamole are fresh and flavorful. Tacos are solid and innovative (chicken curry taco!) albeit a bit on the pricey side. The fried chicken burrito was out of this world and hit the sweet spot on my palate - huge savory flavor blast! This place is a wicker park staple and has probably been reviewed a thousand times, but they are still killing the taco game (better than big star )

    As a Los Angeles native I was really looking forward to trying tacos on the visit to Chicago after seeing a bunch of tv shows referencing the good Mexican food here. Antique taco was yummy. I tried the pork taco and the steak taco. I was very surprised that I preferred the pork, it's flavor profile was just amazing. I also tried the guacamole and agua fresca which were very good. I would come back and see what the other tacos have to offer.

    I have been here at least a half dozen times and am shocked its taken me so long to write a review! Antique Taco is by far my fave taco joint in the neighborhood. The absolute best crispy fish taco I've ever had!! I've tried a few of their others (shrimp, steak, pork) but always go back to the crispy fish taco. The tacos are a little pricey in the $4-7 range but they are fresh and full of flavor so worth the splurge in my opinion. If you are dining in they offer complimentary chips and salsa (with free refills) which is awesome! I recommend the guac as well, its delicious. For drinks I usually stick with their rosemary margarita but they have a few other offerings as well. My husband tried the chicken burrito and really enjoyed it as well. The portion was generous for the price and he had leftovers. Great happy hour specials Monday-Thursday as well!

    Antique Taco is a walk up style taco joint located in Wicker Park. Because of its counter service style you're free to mix and match taco types to your hearts content. The menu has a variety of meat and non-meat bases, all of which were tasty. The space is brightly lit and features some locally crafted goods for purchase as well. This is the perfect place to drop in if you're looking for a quick bite that's a step above your standard fast food or fast casual joint.

As she set down this sticky, wet, under-filled mess, I asked her exactly how much of my husband's $16 cocktail she had just spilled. She said, "Yeah, the bartender over-poured," and walked off. We then watched her do the exact same thing to every mixed drink she ran. Way, way too expensive to be delivering messy, dripping, quarter-empty cocktails. Skip Clara and go to Le Midi, where the service, ambience, and wine list were perfect.

It was no wonder when we arrived that there was a line out the door. We waited around 45 minutes, and the bouncer was a really nice fellow who kept track of the numbers and people at the door. Upon entering, we were immersed in a dimly lit retro-style lounge. It was quite loud inside and packed as we walked to our seats. The server was great at taking our orders and offering suggestions. I opted for the French 75, which featured sparkling wine and mixed gin, brandies, and citrus. The drink was delicious, but STRONG. I don't know what they put in the cocktails in America, but I am always finished after one drink. Needless to say, we were all struggling to finish our own drinks. My favourite touch was the coasters, I ended up keeping all of them so that I can reuse them at my galentines event next year. The 'bisous' with the kiss on the other side is a perfect touch!

Imagine my shock when we didn't even make it past the bouncer because he was so rude, AS OTHER RECENT REVIEWS HAVE MENTIONED AS WELL! We had dinner nearby and walked to Bisous after, and saw there was a line of 5 or 6 people outside. We expected this as we knew Bisous is a first come, first serve bar. We were curious what the wait time would look like, so we approached the front door to ask a host or employee inside (we assumed there'd be a desk with an employee working it who could give us a wait time). We had no problem waiting, just wanted to see how long they estimated it would be! Before we could even fully open the door, the bouncer swung the door open from the other side and hit me with the door. I stumbled back a few steps and he looked at us and said, and I quote, "What do you want?". I laughed at first because I thought he was joking and putting on a tough guy act. He was not. We quickly explained we just wanted to see what the wait time was, and he said "don't you see there's a line outside?" We said yes, and explained we just wanted to know a rough estimated wait time. He just blankly stared at us while ushering us out. Both my boyfriend and I have worked in customer-service roles for a very, very long time. This encounter was not only extremely rude and unprofessional, but he also hit me hard enough with the door to send me stumbling back, and then said nothing about it and continued to address us in a tone that was nothing less than annoyed and irritated. We didn't end up going inside because that encounter left such a bad taste in our mouths. I don't believe in spending my money at establishments that don't treat their customers with the bare minimum respect they deserve! Bummed we didn't get to experience it, as I'm sure it was lovely inside and I can only hope the rest of the employees were much more kind and accommodating, or at least able to answer a simple question. Fire your "bouncer" (??) and hire someone with some basic customer service and communication skills!!

We were not looking to feel the noize, however, and so stayed for just one cocktail. Mine was a Sazerac adjacent mix, and it was very high quality. The decor is very low light, but the vibe is pretty basic - more Paint Your Dorm Room black than Parisian Opium Den black. A bit of a missed opportunity for romance.
