Meh, it was OK. The service was great but the food fell short. This is a casual Mexican spot that seats about 30ish. There is outdoor seating as well. The staff member that helped me was really nice and friendly. The food was fine, kind of. Way too pricey for how small the portions are. The ground beef taco tasted weird to me. Like it was rinsed out after it was cooked. I tried 4 tacos - pastor, tinga, carnitas, and ground beef. None of them really blew me away. They were meh and drowning in raw red onion. read more

6/30/26 , food over cooked and bland, no air conditioning, just left movies (Supergirl) wife and granddaughter (9). Beans were actually tan color and runny, the rice had no taste or flavor of any kind. Over charged for kids meal, charged $4.69 for a small sprite (8oz). That place was great at one time but not anymore, Best tip is not going there. You will thank me. read more

The tacos are about $3.75 each which would be fine except the tacos are about 4 inches, like street tacos. They were ok on taste, chicken was dry. They charge a 3% credit card surcharge even when you pay with debit. I paid $24 for four small tacos and a drink. I come from Texas where I would have paid half the price and the tacos are twice as big. I should have taken the lack of patrons as an indicator that I should go some place else. read more

Nothing special. Pricy for not that much food and then when you get the food it is not that good. My husband was hungry when he sat down to eat his taco "dinner" which includes rice and beans and we each ordered an additional side of corn which is like 1/4 a cup. The taco is one baby tortillas.....not doubled like when you go to a real Mexican restaurant. I got the veggie tacos and the veggies were not cooked in anything flavorful. We are in the area. We want to support businesses in downtown Western Springs but we can't support this one. I am sure it stays in business because all of the kids in the area that need fast casual. read more

A pretty cool place here and glad we got off the train and ate. Guac N Tacos is a small casual Mexican cabana. It has a few locations including this one in Western Springs. Has these small tacos but they have big flavor. Try meaty or the vegetarian. Cool place for lunch. It's best for when you're not real hungry. The tacos are quite small. Because they have a bunch of different ones it makes it easier to sample a few. We of course needed something to drink, so we chose Corona from the beer menu. It's $6 a bottle. That's the biggest complaint about here. Beer is expensive. It helps make the food cheap I guess. We had some of the Vegan Tacos. It's $3.75 for most flavors. They have ones with mushrooms. Good spice. These are topped with corn and grilled onions. Also has plenty of meaty choices. It's not just beef or chicken either. There's seafood choices like shrimp, making this a place everyone can get something. read more

I've been wanting to try this place for a long time, finally last night my husband and I walked in, very clean and cute place, the service was excellent, we had the Pastor, Tinga, Steak, Pork Belly tacos and refried beans, they were Awesome!!! I was born and raised in Mexico, so I'm very picky about Mexican food, and these are approved!! Met the owner, she was very kind and personable. We will definitely go back soon to try other things on the Menu. read more

A friend and I stopped in for an early lunch. It was delicious! Since I was indecisive, I ordered 4 different kinds of tacos. My favorite was the ground beef and the tinga. The steak was my least favorite. Chicken was only ok. Very flavorful. Super friendly staff. They also have beer, margaritas, and soft drinks for purchase. I would recommend when in the area. read more

I recently started coming here in a regular basis because it's local. Up until today, had a quality meal, however not today. The Credit Card machine was down, cash only. Happens, no problem. After starting my meal I pulled a long hair out my mouth that was in the rice. Brought it to cashier after he was alone. Handed him the hair and he took it out my hand. No refund, no apology. Left three tacos on table and walked out! read more

Overpriced margarita. I had the Paloma and it was very nice. Tacos are small and overpriced. Chips & salsa 5.50. Lame. The food is served on plastic trays. With plastic forks you have to ask for. Overpriced yet perfect for the neighborhood where people like to overpay for mediocre food. read more

Guac N Tacos - Grilled Steak Taco with Guac, cheese, cilantro and red onion... - Tacos Near Me - Western Springs, Illinois

We tried Guac N Tacos last night. We ate outside and had brought our two small dogs too. I ordered their steak tacos, a chicken taco, and chips and salsa. My wife ordered the nachos with steak. The steak was way better than expected. I stated GNT's steak is much better than our local place. The chicken taco was so flavorful. The nachos are good, and be careful the salsa is a bit spicy as in a kick. It's not a burn your mouth kind, but be ready with a drink all the same. Should you order the nachos be aware they are pretty big. The plate was stacked high and had lots of meat. I also had a pomegranate margarita that was delicious. I highly recommend. I also saw a lot of people picking up orders. Many of them kept ordering the el pastor so they must be good too! read more

Chips and salsa were great. I loved the fish tacos. And the kids loved the cheese quesadillas. Will be back. read more

Quality has gone down, once again, very disappointed in the food. The chicken was reheated and had no flavor, the guacamole was runny and was dark green/brown, tomatoes very transparent. Too bad, great location. not wasting money anymore. read more

They were nice and online ordering was easy enough. But everything was okkk. And way too expensive for okkk. But it's nice to have a fast casual option in this 'hood. read more

Food is terrific. They are a very busy restaurant with lots of takeout orders but food comes quick.

Exploring downtown Western Springs and Came in for taco Tuesday and was pleasantly surprised! There was a jug of water outside to help with the summer heat. They have plenty of outdoor seating with bright yellow umbrellas. A friendly staff greeted me and immediately provided a suggestion for the carnitas and al pastor tacos. I love when they make recommendations, especially when it's my first time at a place. I added that to my order along with pork belly. All were equally delicious! read more

Guac N Tacos - Carnitas, pastor and pork belly taco - Tacos Near Me - Western Springs, Illinois

We love this place - always good. A little pricey, but great food, staff and atmosphere.

Overrated! If you are used to authentic steak tacos, miss this place. The steak is least favorable. Also, the amount food you get for the prices aren't appropriate. It's minimal food at most. I ordered my food for here and received a stone plate with a plastic spoon. The margarita is good...in fact really good (and responsible for the extra star). If you're interested in the look vs the food, this place is ideal for you. The customer service was fair, the cashier wasn't warm and fuzzy. She was a bit direct and off-putting. The food server was not friendly at all. There was no interaction or greetings. Rather, she'd deliver food to the table and pick it up without saying anything at all. read more

We love this place. The owners are so nice and they make the best margaritas. Tacos are truly authentic, flavorful, and reasonably priced. Our kids love the quesadillas. And you have to get the guacamole. We love going here to support a local business, especially during the pandemic. Yes - you can pickup margs to go. read more

I ordered three tacos, with rice, beans, and corn, to-go, which totaled $25. When I got home the ground beef taco was mushy and flavorless, the rice was hard, and the order was missing the corn. I called back to ask for a refund on the missing corn and Julisa said that it is against policy to give refunds (although they did not pack part of my order). She said the owner is on vacation and she did not know when she would return. Julisa instead offered that I go back and pick up the corn tonight or another day. I told Julisa that I would not be returning because of the above experience. I asked for a refund of the corn, since they erroneously forgot to pack it. I do not recommend this restaurant and will not be returning. read more

Guac N Tacos - Hard, crusty, flavorless rice - Tacos Near Me - Western Springs, Illinois

Restaurant was very cute and trendy, with tables set up outside. I was the only one in the restaurant. Staff was very friendly. I ordered chips and salsa and a steak taco and a fish taco for carry out. The tacos were very small and the fish taco was so overcooked I couldn't even bite into it. The steak taco was alright, although the beef was a little tough. The chips and salsa were nothing special. I feel like the quality and prices could be better. The fish taco was $4.50. I doubt I will return. read more

Third time ordering from them. Their tacos are amazing! However this is the second time they've messed up an order. One, I could've made these nachos myself at home. Secondly, the fact I order 50 dollars worth of food and paid almost 9 dollars for nachos that looked like this(also they had no meat on them for some reason). Don't know if I'll order from here again ‍ read more

Finally ordered carry out from Guac and Tock tonight. I'm not messing around when I say the guac is literally the best I've ever had. I think I know the secret but I'm not telling. We had tacos - pork belly, chicken mole, carnitas, and poblano. They were simple, complimented with the right stuff, and not too much of it. The pork belly had an insanely crispy skin to it - like cracklins. There is nothing to not like about that. They missed one of our tacos on the carry out and I don't like that they use styrofoam. But whatever. We'll be back. read more

I eat here at least once a week!!! I'm originally from the city, and I've had the hardest time finding good, authentic tacos near Western Springs. Guac N' Tacos has been the answer I've been looking for. I am eating my way through the menu! Highlights: 1. Homemade corn tortillas - my favorite. 2. Best chicken tortilla soup I've had in my life. 3. Best guacamole!!! Let's just say, my husband and I need to each get our own orders because I am not sharing... 4. Delicious horchata that is thick and tastes almost like condensed milk. 5. The hibiscus agua fresca is so deliciously sweet and sour that I'm craving it right now. 6. Easy restaurant for families! You order up front and take a number and pick a table where you want to sit. Therefore, although the restaurant can be busy at times, the wait time for a table is quick. 7. Legit Mexican food because they have lengua on the menu. 8. I also heard their margaritas are good. 9. Their corn side dish is esquites. Sooo good. 10. They have breakfast options! 11. The owners are super friendly and nice. 12. Personal favorite tacos: shrimp, fried fish, steak. 13. Beer on tap too. Open 9 am - 9 pm Monday - Saturday. read more

Catered from here Awesome. Great people Great food. Prices are cheap Highly recommend read more

Love this place. Super fast, great service. Plenty of "go to" tacos to choose from. Tasty Horchata. A great fast casual option and do an awesome job catering, too. Only gripe .. please overhaul the guacamole. I love guacamole, but have never had a good dish of it here. Lacks flavor. Seem way too mushy. Good thing is, that's not that hard to do. I'd add it every time if it was good. read more

This restaurant was an amazing experience! The ambiance is amazing, as well as the food and service! I orders a little of everything on the menu and was never disappointed. Loved my whole meal and was served within minutes! The staff was wonderful, helpful, and nice always smiling and talking kindly! Thank you so much, it is not very often that I give a five star rating! read more

I tried ordering online and i continued to have problems, so i decided to call and place my order and just pick it up. Every time i called i would get a busy signal, so I drove there on my lunch break to order takeout. The hype was for nothing, i was very excited to try this place based on reviews but i didn't find this placed to be anything out of the ordinary. -Horchata - mediocre -Tacos, asada- these were tasty -Tacos, tinga - no flavor whatsoever -Tacos, ground beef - needed salt I would not go back or order from here again. read more

I've meant to try them for a year or so. Finally did. What no-where food. Place was clean, friendly & very efficient. Steak Burrito was mediocre/Americanized, lacking in flavor (perhaps good for infants or Sr. citizens - of which I am one). The enchilada diner was very poor. Small enchiladas with chicken that tasted of being boiled in water no discernible seasoning, shredded and placed therein with a tiny bit of cheese. I ordered it with their mole sauce which has no flavor other than bitter. Even the tortilla wrap was so bland I couldn't tell if it was flour or corn. I added their green sauce & salt - still nothing to taste! The re-fried beans & rice were similar to canned at best. Perhaps it's just the tacos that everyone seems to like, but I didn't have one nor do I intend to go back for a second go around. Just NOT the place for anything similar to genuine Mexican cuisine. read more

Service was spectacular by Jesus and Emily. Tacos were delicious, highly recommended. Come here for all your taco needs!

The food and service is excellent! The ingredients and food is fresh and they may have the best hot red sauce of any burrito/taco place I've been. Also serve Margaritas! I've becomes regular... read more

Highly disappointed in the quality of the food! First off, the "Amazing Corn" was submerged in water, clearly from a can, which is disappointing in itself. Zero flavor and not authentic by any means. Secondly, the quality of meat had such a lack of flavor. I ordered chicken, fish and chorizo, all were over cooked with no seasoning, and they got my order wrong. I also ordered Chips n Guac, only to find a hair in it halfway through! *BARF* Lastly, they couldn't pour a beer to save their life. All foam, no beer. Safe to say, would NOT recommend and WON'T be returning. read more

Great burrito and yummy tacos with tasty spicy red salsa and mild green salsa. Very clean and decorative interior. Reasonable prices. Defiantly coming back if I'm in the area. read more

Came here with my BFF and the food was amazing! The lady who took our order was very nice and super friendly. I ordered the babies with steak and she ordered the veggie bowl and an elote which looked delicious. She said it was very good. We both had a margarita with was very good. We are outside because it was nice out but there is indoor seating. read more

I love the margaritas here!!! Try the spicy salt - delicious. The owner even let us try the new mango margarita which is great if you wanted something a little sweeter and not so strong! I definitely recommend the guacamole and the steak taco too - my favorites! read more

Guac n' Tacos is such a great little spot! Their tacos are delicious and super flavorful--we are big fans of the fried fish and the veggie tacos. I love the simplicity of the menu and the contemporary style of the tacos--not to mention their delicious salsas. The people that work in the shop are always so welcoming and kind. I would recommend this place for take out any night! Will continue to return to support them during the pandemic. read more
