    Steak Burrito
    Frank L.

    I tried Guzman y Gomez in Schaumburg recently - it was just okay. I think of this restaurant as a Chipotle/Qdoba except not as tasty. I tried the steak burrito - it was wrapped up pretty well and a lot of toppings but you can tell the steak has been sitting a bit it was just warm not hot. They do have a nice condiment station inside with 3 different hot sauces, cilantro, onion and pickled Jalepano which was cool. Service was always pretty friendly. Overall, it's just okay. But I'd go to a chipotle or Qdoba over this place for sure (or an authentic Mexican restaurant).

    Great for the whole family - we came with two adults and two very young children! We've never been but have seen the one close to us in Naperville so were excited to try this out. We went mid-afternoon on a Friday, so it wasn't too crowded and were welcomed kindly and experienced excellent service. We ended up ordering the kids quesadilla meal, which came with fries, 2 quesadillas and a drink and a burrito bowl meal, which came with nachos and a drink. I thought the pricing was decent, seems similar to other restaurants, and you get a good quanity of food. I got the chicken burrito bowl and it was filled with rice, beans, chicken and had some chips on the side. I thought it was quite tasty and is similar to what I usually get from Chipotle. The kids meal was also quite tasty and the kids enjoyed. They also have a hot sauce, onion, hot pepper and cilantro condiment bar which was really nice. I loved the vibrant colors, dining area, service and food taste and quality. Now that I have visited and tried it, we will add this to our rotation.

    Getting a Cali burrito is always a great occasion, and this establishment's offering isn't too bad for what you get. You can fill it with chicken, ground beef, steak, pork, beef brisket, and sauted vegetables. The flour tortilla wasn't mushy and had a decent texture. I had the steak, and it was pretty flavorful, but I was hoping for a bit more steak on it. I really appreciated their salsa station. My favorite condiments from it were the pickled jalapeños, smoky Chipotle, and roasted jalapeños. There is a bit for everyone's taste, so that's a plus. If I am in the area again craving a fast food burrito, I will probably come back by to give another option a try.

    Good food. Could be a little cleaner. Napkins are too cheap ( thin and low quality) and the tray/plate the burrito is searved on is too small to make it comfortable to eat on. Food was very good and a fair price! During the lunch rush there was plenty of staff, but management was using one of the prime booths with computers and meetings. Many or most of the stools were missing leg caps and were rocking. Numbers used to deliver the orders were left on tables where no one appeared to be seating consuming prime seating locations. Again the food and service were very good.

    Location was easy to find. I came on Wed night and had no issue with parking. When we walked in, it was pretty dead after 8 pm. I had the Cali burrito, queso fries, churros, and horchata. Btw this is not anything new. In fact, I had my first Cali burrito in Naperville at Invicto 6 years ago. Apparently, it's very new to many folks. I chose beef brisket (cost a little extra) and spicy. Portion size is decent if you have a short lunch. Taste was good, it was warm, and there was an ample amount of avocado. I recommend getting a side with it. Queso fries were very tasty. Fries were well seasoned and the melted queso provided additional savoriness. Churros they gave me an order of 2. Light dessert with sufficient amount of cinnamon. Horchata was decent, not as good as some of the others I had but still worth a purchase. Decor is nothing fancy but you can see the Mexican influence. I saw many reviews comparing this to Chipotle. Other than the burrito part and bowls, there aren't many similarities. It's more of a cross between Chipotle and your typical fast food place. You walk in, look up at the menu, and choose what you want. There aren't any foods presented in front of you like Subway/Chipotle/Bibibop. Service was good. They kept the place pretty clean.

    ** Super Kind Service ** ** Awesome Look and Feel ** ** Delicious Breakfast ** I had wanted to come to Gozman y Gomez since I first saw it. Their branding is on point and I love stuff like that. I've had the pleasure to come a few times now and I have to say it's pretty good. For the price? This is were it's a little iffy for me personally. The service at this location has been impeccable! I'm kind of taken aback by how kind and attentive the staff had been. Can they train every other business, lol. The service may bring back for breakfast! Thanks GyG!

    Burrito
    Hemali S.

    We went for lunch today and had never been before. It was about 1:15pm and the drive thru was clear. The rep on the other end was so nice taking our order. We got a vegetarian cali burrito and a vegetarian burrito. The difference is French fries in the cali and rice in the regular. They were so nice and giving us extra sauces (obviously our favorite). We loved the meal and will definitely go again. We would ask for more French fries as we didn't really notice any in our burrito but didn't deter us from finishing.

    Beef brisket and guac

    I've been coming to this place for a long time now and every time I have exceptional service and their food ALWAYS tastes amazing! Today I was asked by Fahad, while eating, if everything is okay and if I need anything else. We had a little conversation about life and I decided to write a review to recognize him! There is not many people in these days who truly care about the others, can look into your eyes and are willing to share some stories - I appreciate you Fahad - you carry the light - keep it shining!!! Great place to have healthy mexican food, comfortable dining area, good music, people who care - highly recommend to visit.

    Been passing by tgis place and I have alwaya been intrigued and wanted to try it. So tonight i got a chance to and was really disappointed. I ordered 4x Tacos 2 grilled chicken and 2 flamed grilled angus steak. The chicken was ok. The steak was too salty. I also ordered their fries which was also a bit salty. Their Queso was a bit sour and i dont know if it was because of the picadillo. The place has nice decoration and ambiance was great. The service was ok. Felt like they were sooo busy but the restaurant wasnt full. Maybe take out and delivery? The cashier is running around preparing and delivering orders and so there was a wait before he took the order. They also didnt ask what kind of tortilla you wanted. Its not a great experience. And I dont think im going back anytime soon. Happy eating!

This is meant to be your crazy expensive birthday bash or celebration, not an every day place. We are lucky to have a gem like this in Schaumburg with very busy servers who try their absolute best to give you a flashy service with delicious food. Are you seriously expecting this to be $50 meal for four? No way. There are many places you can get the same thing. Every time I've gone here, I've spent good money that I worked hard for, and have had great memories in the process. If you're expecting a simple Mexican restaurant, this is not your place. This is high end and very busy. Make a reservation, call in advance to make sure it's set. OpenTable is used by many restaurants, so you can't blame this restaurant for OpenTable's mistakes. The Los Tres Huastecos was PHENOMENAL. The Camarones Calavera was really fun to watch, experience, and eat. I don't drink, but my family loved their flashy drinks (the Deseo was their favorite). They made sure my father felt special on his birthday with a sash, a custom menu (which we requested for in advance with our reservation), and most servers took a moment to say happy birthday even when they weren't serving our table!! Chris was a fantastic server who despite being very busy, did a wonderful job with his service. I won't defend a place for no reason; I truly had a wonderful time that deserves its praise. I research everywhere I go, so obviously when my paycheck hasn't cleared, I'm not going here. But you also wouldn't go to Fogo De Chao or Hell's Kitchen and expect it to be as cheap as my burger at a Chili's (which I love as well). (Also for the comments about the guac, I do agree, but I've also seen the same size portion at other chains for the same price. *cough* south of the boarder *cough*)

We ordered some drinks (no one got alcohol) and some appetizers. We got the Low Carb Yuka Fries and while that is not my bag, they were good. I was pleasantly surprised. We also had the roasted red pepper spread, which everyone enjoyed. Two of us ordered the Ultimate Steak Sandwich. I opted to removed the caramelized onions. The other person let them on. I also removed the garlic herb sauce but replaced it with a chimichurri sauce. That really kicked it up a notch and was good for dipping the fries in. They're fresh cut fries, so they were good on their own, but the chimichurri again kicked it up a notch. We also ordered the chicken bowl, the avocado salad, and the Greek style lamb chops. We all loved our food and were too full for dessert. It's a quaint little place, cozy for intimate conversation or a night out with family and friends. I think the night was made a little more fun when a couple came in and was seated at a counter height table and were making out all night. It was a lot and gratuitous. The table next to them were visibly uncomfortable and that made it all the more enjoyable to witness. Dinner and a show. Who knew?
