    Tacos
    Melody Y.

    So happy I finally tried this place for lunch! I got the carne asada taco dinner, and it was such a great meal for a great price. The rice and beans were so yummy, a telltale sign of a good taco place! The tacos themselves were so flavorful and the meat was nice and tender. Ordered with Grubhub and the food arrived still warm and perfectly on time. I'll definitely order again!

    Great, authentic food! We ordered 12 tacos and they were done in less than 10 minutes. Will definitely be coming back!

    Phenomenal menu options, and everything is delicious. We were looking for authentic tacos, and this place delivered. The Windy City fries blew my entire medula.

    Quesabirria Taco Dinner
    Nick P.

    I read that they have different owners. I came here a long time ago but the layout was completely different at that time. I decided to revisit. I ordered quesobirrias meal and 3 tacos (pastor, cecina, and camarones). The quesobirrias meal comes with rice and beans or French fries. The quesobirrias were decent. I was disappointed with the consomme because there was no flavor. I had consomme at other places and their flavor was very robust. The 3 tacos (pork, thin sliced steak, and shrimp all tasted pretty good. Prices were fair. Service was good.

    3.5 but rounding up to 4. A friend picked Chicago Style Taco Shop to check out for a weekday dinner and we enjoyed our time here. This small taco shop offers authentic mexican tacos and is known for their dorado tacos (similar to birria tacos). This is a casual spot that can seat up to 30ish people. Service was quick - I ordered via the front counter with a staff member and within 10 mins my food was ready to be devoured. They do have a CC fee (I think it's about 4%), that's pretty standard for most places. If you have time - I recommend bringing cash to avoid this fee. If dining in there is a salsa bar that which was a nice touch. I decided to try 3 tacos - a quesabirria with barbacoa, a chicken taco and an al pastor (pork) taco. All their tacos come with corn tortillas and served with cilantro and onion. My favorite was the quesabirria. In order to get the consome you must order the 3 of em, since I ordered 1 I didn't get the consome. My friend DID order 3 quesabirrias so thankfully I was able to try it. The consome was VERY good and hot (temperature).

    Pastor tacos ($3.41 on taco tuesday if you order on their website). A lot of burnt, dry meat
    Jen J.

    These were the 2nd worst al pastor tacos ($3.41 when ordered on their website on Taco Tuesday) I've ever had. Dry/old, not much meat compared to other restaurants, fatty, and very burnt. We also got the al pastor sope ($4.73) and burrito ($9.71). There was a fat piece the size of a silver dollar in the burrito. It was also one of the smallest we've gotten from a restaurant. The menu says that their burritos have lettuce, tomato, avocado, beans, cheese & sour cream, but ours was missing avocado and sour cream, and really stingy with the other ingredients. This was a hard pass for us because the food was not made with love or pride. I wouldn't serve this to family or friends. Didn't rate 1 star because the cashier was nice, the 3 included salsas were good, and I wouldn't want to discourage people from trying their birria tacos, which look appealing from the photos.

    Wow, these tacos here were fireeeeee! I've seen this taco shop on Yelp before, and I was in the area so I decided to stop by for a nice taco lunch. It was around 12pm on a Sunday and no one else was in the shop besides a few people in and out picking up takeout orders. The place is clean, cozy but with enough seating, and very authentic. The staff here was great, as well; the employee who took my order was so friendly, brought me my food, asked how it was, etc. It felt like I was at a restaurant! Loved it. Now the tacos - YUM. They're known for their tacos dorados which I'm bummed I didn't get, but I'm totally coming here again to get them. Back to the normal tacos - they were authentic, fresh, hot, small, and delicious! The carne asada is finely chopped and they came with the perfect amount of onions and cilantro. The 2 salsa verdes I got on the side were also sooooo good - one was with jalapeño and the other one was a bit creamier. The total was around $9 including tax for 3 tacos (2 carne asada and 1 al pastor). I'm 100% going here again! Thank you for satisfying my taco craving, Chicago Style Taco Shop!

    Tacos dorados
    Rozalynn B.

    Best "dipping tacos" EVER!!!! Everywhere I go lately the Quesabirrira tacos don't compare to here. I mean these are the best ever! Their consume isn't thick and greasy or bland! I use to eat from their North Las Vegas location 6/7yrs ago. Once the birria craze started I bookmarked them to try out. Came in, spoke to the owner and he said they were the same establishment. THE FOOD IS GOOD YALL!! Of course the regular tacos are good, but I come in to dip! Lol The staff is friendly too!!!

    2 beef dorado tacos with side of broth
    Paul P.

    I read a review that said the dorado was bland. I ordered 2 with the broth. The meal that comes with 3 would have been too much. When I first bit into it I thought hmm... Maybe it IS bland?! But wait.. So by the time I finished, I felt it was just right. The issue with too much salt is when you are done and your mouth is dry. I left feeling just fine. My son got the large horchata and the flavor was good, he said it was perfect, I thought it was a touch too sweet. I didn't see any salsa but my son doesn't use it on his tacos. I'm sure there is some. Somewhere. The people working there are nice as can be. Really. Got 1 plain and 1 strawberry churro to take home. They were also excellent.

    Chicken windy city fries. And this was a small!

    Ordered the queso birria tacos for delivery and they were so good! Now, I want to try this place in person. The beans were also good.

One of the best surprises for anyone with a gluten sensitivity is that all of their happy hour drinks are gluten-free, which immediately took the stress out of ordering from the separate menu. While the menu does not explicitly mark items as gluten-free, the staff is extremely knowledgeable, and we discovered that a great variety of happy hour options can easily be made gluten-free. I kicked things off with the Roja sangria before moving on to the frozen trio. Although the Paloma was not freezing properly at the time, the bartender was wonderfully accommodating and expertly crafted a custom margarita using those delicious Paloma flavors instead. My trio featured the coconut agave margarita, a Paloma made with the classic margarita base in guava passionfruit, and a spicy mango margarita. For food, we started by splitting the dip trio, paired with chips that are safely made in a dedicated fryer. We also ordered tacos on corn tortillas, sampling both the chicken pastor and the traditional carnitas, and every single bite of the food was delicious. Although they do not carry any gluten-free desserts, the server offered the birthday girl one of her choosing. Between the accommodating service and the stellar food and drinks, the entire gathering was a huge success.

    Love this place! The food is made from scratch in house, even the corn tortillas for the tacos!…read more Our waitress was super sweet and the place was lit just right for a calm and relaxing dinner. We loved the food and everything tasted so good. Will certainly come back.
