    Just so happened to be in the area and wanted good Mexican. Do not pass this place up! I tried the tacos. Birria tacos, chips, salsa and guacamole and no I did not come close to eating it all lol. Everything was soo good! I highly recommend it

    I'm gonna keep it straight to the point. Stumbled across this during a quick google search. Didn't look at any reviews, just went in blind and came out full and satisfied. Reasonable prices, staff was friendly and welcoming and most importantly the food flavorful and fresh. Highly recommend trying this place.

    I tried this place again while in the area and again it was fantastic. I ordered the Tinga and barbacoa tacos and loved them! So good! There's plenty of parking in the lot and the service is quick. Love this place!

    La Taquiza Express opened last week, and today was a Grand Opening. It's good to see a restaurant in this recently vacated space, although it is small. It's more like a takeout place as there are only a few seats against the windows. I am not familiar with the other 3 locations (Northbrook, Winnetka, Glenview). I ordered the quesabirria, which was two cheesy, crisp tortillas folded in half and stuffed with beef brisket with a side of consommé. The beef was tender and juicy, the broth flavorful and just a little spicy (a little oily too). The elote I ordered was just ok. It was a generous portion but not very cheesy or spicy. This is a warm and friendly joint, although small, and I'd like to come back for brunch to try chilaquiles or other tacos.

    Came for lunch and they've only been open for 2 weeks. The staff is genuinely friendly and attentive both in greeting and at the end of the meal. I tried the Hot Cheetos burrito and it was just the perfect meal size. It was filled to the brim with steak and yes, hot Cheetos! There was a decent size menu and so much I wanted to try.

    Thank you for the food truck on a hot summer day! Modelo + chamoy + taijin. Great combination

    Wow! Great little taco spot. Good for pickup or counter eat-in lunch/dinner. Authentic flavors. Specialize in steak, but have an excellent shrimp taco too. Awesome homemade hot sauces.

    Al pastor burrito bowl with everything, and quesabirria tacos (I ordered two. Ate one before remembering to take a photo).

    If this place is the same quality as the one in Glenview, then buckle up Highland Park... you're in for a treat! Enjoy!

They provided us with large bowl of thin crispy chips and salsa. We also ordered the guac which was fresh and creamy and mild and more delicious chips, still warm. The menu offers a lot of variety and we ordered from the Lunch Menu. Our order came out quickly, and portions were large. I ordered a taco salad with fajita steak and I enjoyed the grilled steak, onions and peppers, hot off the grill and I will order fajitas on a future visit. My companions enjoyed their enchiladas, tamales and quesadillas. I will also have to order tacos next time. I did think there was a lot of ground beef on the lunch menu, although there are chicken, steak and pork dishes as well on the regular menu. Overall, this was a solid restaurant with typical Mexican dishes. The friendly staff were eager to please which shifted this from a four star to a five star. HP needs more restaurants in its downtown area so I wish Blue Margaritas much success.

I came across the reviews of Guzman y Gomez on Yelp, and it sounded great, and we decided to try it. When I looked it up, I found out that if I ordered through the app we could start earning rewards, so we did this, and went inside to pick up the order and eat. Everything was ready and waiting in a large bag for us to pick up. We grabbed it at the pick up window, and went into the dining area to sit and eat. I ordered two tacos, and my husband got a burrito. With the tacos, I chose ground beef, and chose mild on the seasoning. They were very good, although I think next time I'll try spicy and see if I like that even better. But what set them apart was that the taco shells themselves had some taco seasoning on them that was delicious. The tacos also just had the basics, which is how I like them - meat, cheese, and salsa. And two were plenty for me, very substantial. My husband tried the ground beef burrito, which was huge. He could only eat half, and took the other half to eat later. He said he enjoyed it a lot. We were looking forward to going back, but I read just now that all the Chicago locations have closed as of today. That's a shame, because we really liked it a lot.

All the ingredients are standard with the Cali burrito. You can choose from a spice level mid or spicy . I went with eh spicy . They have a lot of protein you can choose from like grilled chicken, sirloin, steak, Carnitas, shredded beef, brisket, seasoned ground beef, or sautéed vegetables with guacamole. The burritos is on the smaller side, but it packs a punch full of flavor. From the fries to the salsa to the fresh pico. Highly recommended the Cali burrito. They also have this salsas, cilantro, and jalapeño and spicy pickled carrots station where you can help yourself . They also serve liquor here . The decor inside definitely has the Spanish theme. From the art on the wall to the vines hanging down from the ceiling . The service is great. I love how they have the open kitchen where you can see them cook.
