Loved the food! The service wasn't horrible but they weren't too interactive either which doesn't make or break it for me. I was there for the food and it didn't disappoint. I can't wait to go there on my cheat day. read more

After reading the reviews I decided to try their quesabirria tacos with the consume At $15.99 for lunch I expected awesome. What I got was GREASE. The tacos were barely eatable and the consume was tasteless. The order consisted of 5 tacos and I could only eat 2 and a half AND I WAS HUNGRY!!! I will go again to order something else because I believe in giving local businesses a chance. And for birria tacos I will continue to go to Texas Bebes in Grayslake where they are OUTSTANDING read more

our first time trying this place and so glad we did! upon entering the restaurant we browsed the menu and ordered at the cash register. then the staff told us to sit at any table. we started off with complimentary chips/salsa. the salsa was spicy but good. i got my taco dinner (asada and al pastor) and my husband got the 3 quesabirria tacos. he said it was the best quesabirria tacos he's had! i liked my tacos as well. taste was good but there were a good amount of fatty pieces in the al pastor so i enjoyed the steak more. rice and beans were good but i feel 3.50 is a bit overpriced for the portions provided. overall, had a solid experience and ate a delicious meal! will be back! read more

Eva's Mexican Restaurant - taco dinner with 1 asada and 2 al pastor - Mexican Near Me - Buffalo Grove, Illinois

Eva's is a reliable Mexican restaurant located in a strip mall off Dundee. I think they specialize in birria tacos since they advertise it on the door as you walk in. I've recently discovered the birria tacos which is awesome crispy-cheesy-melty- dip-able-delicious goodness. Eva's does it pretty good, with a cheesy crispy taco and the au-jus of the meat. The plate comes with beans and rice. I thought the seasoning was a bit off, as the au-jus didn't add much flavor to the taco. It was a tad spicy for my kids (I wouldn't really know if it were) as, my tongue was on fire from the yummy salsas they had. The burrito was really really good. I ordered the al pastor. It was a bit different than other al pastors Crispy meat, and a taste resembling bacon. Now if this is how their Al pastor is, I think I need to come back just for that, as the texture was wonderful, the smokiness of the bacon and the richness really was unique. I also ordered some quesadillas for my kids since they ate up everything that I wanted to eat, the quesadilla was super loaded with cheese and I had it with a side of fries, which was super hot, fresh from the fryer. The staff is friendly and the place was completely filled with customers at 6:30pm when we leave. (When we arrived at 5:30, there were only two tables occupied). Plenty of parking. read more

Great quesabirrias! Seems like it's run by a family, which makes it feel cozy. Nice ambiance and great service. Highly Recommend!

Walked inside to a very unassuming restaurant from the outside. We came on a weekend, at the start of dinner time so there were only a couple of other patrons there eating. It seemed more like a take out place but by the time we were done eating the restaurant was filled and customers were waiting for seats. We came here for the quesabirria tacos and they did not disappoint. We ordered 2 quesabirria dinners which come with beans and rice. The quesabirria hit the spot and exactly what we were looking for. We also got an al pastor burrito which was quite sizeable and plenty for 2 to share and a cheese quesadilla that came with fries too. If you eat in they also give you chips and salsa. I've passed this restaurant many times before without even considering eating in but I'm glad I did. The food was delicious and reasonably priced! Quesabirria I will be back for you next time I have a craving for it. read more

Birria tacos!! My go to place for them! ESP. Since they are now popping up everywhere. The flavors from the meats, the kick in the consumé the perfect combination! Their horchata isn't my favorite but is a staple to make the perfect meal! We also got a side of guac and chips, and it was incredible! We crushed it on the way home so unfortunately the phone didn't get to eat first but it was so good that we couldn't save any of it to enjoy at home. They have so many other items on the menu to try, but I have yet to veer off to try to something new because it was just hard to get away from the amazing Birrias! read more

Hidden quesabirria gem! Stopped in here for the first time and I was pleasantly satisfied with our food. We got the queso fundido (without chorizo) and it came with a side of warm tortillas - yum! Chips and salsa were also given once drink orders were placed (salsa was good, had a definite kick to it). Ordered 3 quesabirria tacos with consume and it was so good! Husband got the 3 taco dinner with Al pastor, asada, and cecina tacos. His favorite was the al pastor. Overall, everything was delicious and will come back again - next time to try the birria ramen (not advertised on their menu but advertised on their door walking in). read more

Went to try the birria ramen and fell in love with the tacos de tripa and quesabirria! My go-to

Heard about Eva's from some of my friends and wanted to try it out! Them one of my favorite kinds of tacos is a good al pastor taco, and this one did not disappoint. They filled it up with meat and the seasoning was on point. The quesabirria tacos were just as delicious dipping it into the consome and cheesy as well. Glad this place is super close to home! read more

4th time eating here, never fails to hit the spot.. quesabirria tacos are my go-to since i like cheese tacos. flavor is beyond immaculate and i haven't found a place as good as this one. if i could give more than 5 stars i would. read more

We decided to deviate from our regular joint to see how other top-rated local Mexican joints measure up. We went with a couple tacos, a carne asada burrito, and the highly recommended quesabirria for takeout. Overall, the quantity of the food was fair for the price point. The quesabirria was loaded with cheese and meat, and the tacos/burritos didn't skimp out either. While the flavor didn't have as much pop as our usual go-to, we were nonetheless pleasantly surprised with the container of smoky, red chile salsa. Great service from the takeout staff and food was hot and ready in fifteen minutes. read more

I never had anything from this restaurant before but today my mom brought burritos for us to try and we all spit the awful rubber sole meat out and swore to never get food from there again. The meat is just atrocious. No one can chew this. Find a different cut of meat, or learn how to cook the ones you buy read more

A friend brought us here and said that they had the best quessabirria. It was a inconspicuous restaurant on a stripmall, but they pack a punch. The place was quickily filled up at dinner time and the crowds came and went. M any people ordered for take out too. This is a sign of good food that the locals know! And my tummy agrees 100%!!! read more

Eva's Mexican Restaurant - One Tripa and one Chorizo taco - Mexican Near Me - Buffalo Grove, Illinois

We came here specifically for the Quesabirria Tacos. I would say they were ok. They lacked flavor in the taco, and the sauce didn't have much meat or flavor either. The steak in the Carne Asada taco was overcooked and hard. The margaritas tasted watered down, and with not much alcohol. Service was also very slow. We never got water or were asked if we wanted anything else. I really wanted to like this place based on some of the other reviews. I probably will not be back. read more

My visiting friend and I were looking for a Mexican / Tex-Mex restaurant in the neighborhood that served good Margaritas, and we found this place on Yelp which had very good ratings. Well, we found the place tired, very slow-running, and serving very mediocre food and lame drinks. The salsa was a very hot mix (which I like), but did not come with water for some time; the chips were cold (not room temperature, but COLD!). The drinks took forever to come to the table, and not together, even when we ordered the same drink without any modification at the same time. They seemed to do more business with pick-up/take-out than with seated customers. What was worse, was the poor service and food came with fairly high prices for what you got (for the money). Afterwards, we ran a quick errand and then went to a Chili's nearby for more Margaritas (fantastic taste and portion) and perfectly warmed chips with delicious salsas for ending the evening on high note. I'm dumbfounded where these 5-star reviews came from here - were they in the same strip center restaurant with Christmas and St. Patrick decorations still up???? read more

Stopped in for a burrito with a buddy. We were not impressed. The steak I had was "ok" but bland. The ground beef burrito my buddy had was "odd" with carrots and potatoes? And he said was flavorless. Sadly, I can not recommend Eva's. read more

It was Friday night so that means Margaritas, chose this place based on the Yelp reviews...WRONG!!! The décor was tired, still displaying Christmas and St. Patrick day in April. The service was extremely slow; seemed like they cared more about the takeout customer rather than dine in. Prices did not match the quality of food and beverages. Margaritas were not from scratch and had a not so pleasant after taste. Chili's to the rescue for several rounds AWESOME Margaritas, chips, and salsa. read more

I live in the area and I've visited Eva's a couple of times. The food is very good and fresh. It's well seasoned and flavorful. I've taken food to go both times so I haven't dined in, but the food is always nice and hot and everything I need is included in the bag including sauces, napkins and plastic ware. The people who work there are always kind and courteous. Everything we've ordered is delicious and you can tell they put a lot of work and care into their food and preparations. It's a nice local, go-to spot for fresh Mexican food in the neighborhood. read more
