I really liked the torta de milenesa. We also ordered the bbq wings and they were great, the Jamaica is also a 10/10. Will be comjng

Visited on cinco de mayo and it was busy, we started with the guacamole and elote which was very tasty. Our server was attentive and pleasant and it didn't take long for our drinks and entrees to arrive. There was a margarita special so we tried the frozen strawberry. It could had been better but I can't complain about the price. I had the chicken enchiladas, rice and black beans. Delicious, black beans were so good and the enchiladas was very good. The other guest had steak, pork and chorizo tacos and everyone was satisfied. After dinner we had ice cream next door to top off our evening. read more

I never ordered taco's in a bar before and I was surprised how good they were. The menu is on a QR code and I ordered a variety which were chicken, steak and marinated pork. Both chicken and steak was made fresh and the pork was made and needed to be re-heated. Every taco was under $4 and was not a huge taco but decent. The sodium level was high but tasty. I would come back to give them another try. The location was great and clean interior. Seating outside and in. There is a small private lot across the street which is convenient. read more

Staff is nice, the horchata was bomb! The tacos were good. I will say the drinks are not ALL that but I would come back. They have music I came on a Tuesday night so not a lot of people but still the place was a nice set up. read more

I just stumbled across this place.. I was craving some tacos and this place looked good. I ate there and was shocked to see how pretty the place was. It has a bar and they had a big drink selection although I didn't get drinks. At first they brought me some like Kay chips with chipotle sauce. They were good but I wish I would have gotten chips and salsa instead. Anyway I ordered the taco dinner which came with three tacos but I ordered another taco since it was in their special of the day price $1.95. I was shocked with how good everything was. The only thing that was average was the rice, but the beans were delicious, asada and al pastor tacos were amazing and even their chicken taco was good. Don't let their lay chips and chipotle sauce fool you. These tacos are good and authentic! Deff recommend it! Very affordable and delicious! read more

Excellent...clean and modern! Very tasty and reasonable. Service was very good as well. Definitely will be back.

This place is near me & I passed by it a million times. Since I'm off 2day I decided 2 stop by. Great decision! Whoever owns it spent sum serious $$$ decorating it. It is contemporary, stylish yet still authentic. It was clean. The friendly order taker took my order and about 5 minutes later gave me & my friend complimentary soup which was delish. Order took about 10-12 minutes. It was fresh and on point. The ingredients were on point & a good amount for leftovers. The horchata was more like a smoothie, very flavorful. They do charge $.50 per debit/credit card transaction. They have a parking lot across the street plus street parking. A full bar there too. I will be back guys for food & sum drinking too. read more

Looove the vibe in the place. Lots of tvs and great music! The food was soooo delicious and flavorful. The service was so on point and timely, we never felt like we couldn't reach our waitress for something. We got chips with guacamole and the chips tasted like they were made in house by someone who KNOWS what they're doing! So good! We got the Al pastor tacos and the birria tacos. I had the birria tacos and they were so juicy and not too cheesy but there was still a cheese pull They also gave us chips with a spicy sauce on top that was on the house! The staff was amazing and friendly and I will definitely be back read more

I spend a lot of time here a lot especially in the summer. I have a specific order and each and every time it's done with perfection. Any where I go to eat I ask to make my food with love and that's what I receive every time. Oh the drinks are amazing as well. read more

Amazing service. I was greeted with smiles. beautiful ambiance. Delicious food ! I got the tacos. They have a full bar if you want to have a little cocktail while you wait, but you can dine in. It has good space, and a small outdoor patio that they keep decorated. Will definitely come again. read more

Went here when they first opened. Used some promotional coupons/flyers they were putting out. Anywho, I got tacos. Tasty,flavorful meat. I loved the fact that they serve alcohol so I was able to have a drink with my meal. The look of the restaurant itself is a lot more inviting than a lot of Mexican restaurants in the neighborhood. To me, this is a plus because it makes it seem like a fun environment which makes you wanna stay,chill, drink, eat long than you would elsewhere nearby. I hope more places in the neighborhood follow this trend soon. read more

Carmelo’s Taco Place - Birria Taco w/ Rice & Beans / Steak Tacos , Mango Margarita on the rocks - Tacos Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Found this place on Yelp, since I was in the area and wanted tacos. I noticed the menus posted here aren't current or complete, so I made sure to take pictures of them to update my fellow Yelpers. That being said, I ordered 2 quesabirria with consume and a classic Margarita. The birria tacos were the best I've had so far! So much flavor, the meat was not overcooked and the consume was fabulous!! They had 3 sizes of margaritas, I ordered the medium, $12. The size was kind of small, but it was really good. The place was trendy, and spotless. The staff was very nice and welcoming. I will definitely be back! And I will certainly be recommending this place to friends! read more

I really enjoyed the tacos here. I had the steak and chicken, they were both flavorful and tender. I don't like the cheese they use (but that's a preference thing). The service was amazing, A+ for that. They're not the best tacos I've ever had, but if I'm in the neighborhood again I'll definitely stop by. It's definitely worth a try! read more

A stop you won't regret! The decor is nice, spacious, and modern. I ordered the chicken fajitas. The price is unbeatable for the amount of food you get. ($10 for it) The peppers were fresh. The meat had enough seasoning to where it wasn't over seasoned or under seasoned. It also came with rice and retried beans. They gave six corn tortillas and it was enough food to have that many. There was no wait to order and my food was done quickly. I will definitely become a regular customer. Parking on the street wasn't a problem. The staff was friendly and attentive; checking on me throughout my meal without imposing too much. Overall, definite quality meal with no wait! read more

I have diabetes so if I eat beans my blood sugars goes up. I ordered a Toca salad (I just eat the middle parts & not the shell) & asked the young lady what's in it & it took her a few seconds to look up the ingredients in the register. She did not say beans, so I asked does it have beans and she said no. Long story short when I brought it back another woman wanted to argue with me about what's in the taco salad. Very rude older lady! What is messed up is what I tasted was really good. I will never go back to Carmelo's again! read more

I came into this place looking for a quick place to grab some Mexican food while on my lunch break. Upon entering, I was immediately greeted and taken care of. It was aesthetically pleasing and the inside decor was beautiful. Very lovely restaurant. I order three tacos, uno de carne asada, uno de chorizo, y otro de birria. At first I thought it was a bit pricey, 10 dollars for three tacos but figured it might be worth my buck. I also thought the wait was a little long but you know, good food is worth waiting for. Let me tell you, these tacos are the juiciest and most savory tacos you could ask for. The carne asada was just what you'd expect, a classic that you can't go wrong with. The Chorizo taco, the chorizo taco could've been a bit crispier but I can't really complain. It was still really good. Now the birria taco, I could tell it was going to be good from the start. It's flavor was incredible, a nice spice to it and juiciness that keeps you coming back for more despite feeling that heat with each bite. It was a perfect taco and overall, my food was pretty good and definitely worth the price. Will be coming back! read more

Amazing! I always drive by and wanted to try it out because it looked so nice on the inside and I wasn't disappointed. It's a beautiful and modern restaurant. The food was flavorful and most importantly, fresh (I can tell when my arroz y frijoles have been reheated after sitting in the fridge for a few days.) Other pluses: friendly service, clean bathrooms, and there was even a kids area with some toys! I enjoyed my dinner without crying kids for once! My husband says we found his new favorite Mexican restaurant. We will definitely be back! read more

Good but expensive compared to similar businesses in area. The menu that is posted claims it's $7.50 for steak and eggs. When you go to the business itself it's $14 or double the price. Beware. read more
