These tacos are amazing, a bit pricey, but well worth it. My favorites are the shrimp. They are huge, so I can only eat half at a time. I washed them down some Horchata. The staff who took my order was very pleasant and friendly to everyone. I'm definitely going back read more

Small ,tight, & unhygienic place with good but overrated food . Good costumer service .

My partner and I had 4 Pack QuesaBirria Tacos and it was more than enough food for us -- we were stuffed. My partner is from California so the expectations for a Quesabirria is quite high -- and he was blown away. Hands down, this is now our favorite place for Quesabirrias. We will be coming back again and again. Service was excellent, the gentleman taking our order was very kind and attentive. The consume (soup) that comes with the Quesabirria is so flavorful - again, we will be coming back here for a long time! read more

Quesabirria Jalisco - 4-4 Pack QuesaBirria Tacos - Tacos Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Reunited and it feels so good... A few years ago, during the throes of the pandemic, we first discovered Quesabirria Jalisco when it was operating as a food truck on the corner of Addison and Harlem. It was my introduction to the quesabirria taco. And I wondered where this version of the taco had been all my life. As a food truck, their supply was more limited, so picking up an order for dinner proved to be challenging. We'd call or we'd show up, only to find that they sold out for the day. It felt like a huge win whenever we scored one of their last few orders of the day. And then they moved the truck, too far for us to make the drive. Over the ensuing interval, we searched in vain for a comparable quesabirria offering. Only one other place came close to QJ in our seemingly exhaustive search for the holy grail of quesabirria. Finally I saw QJ get mentioned as I continued to search for places, and I was pretty sure that it was the same as the food truck. And I knew that someday, when I could get down to Pilsen, this was going to be the first stop. Yesterday at lunchtime I got to make the trek at long last. I ordered the standard three tacos. It comes with the consomme for dipping, plus some onions and cilantro to sprinkle on the tacos, two lime wedges, and a couple of sauces, red and green. I really liked the green one, which added more spice to the tacos. I also ordered their agua fresca with hibiscus. To start off, these tacos are most generous. Lots of birria stuffed in there, and lots of melted queso. The perfect texture (wish I could describe that, but you know it when you bite into it), and make sure you have enough napkins for this event, because it's gonna get kinda messy! Halfway through that third taco, I knew for sure that it was going to be a very light dinner for me that evening. This is a veritable feast. Quesabirria Jalisco should be on anybody's short list for quesabirria tacos. The owner runs the counter, and he couldn't be friendlier. Everything was right about this experience. When you have the craving for quesabirria tacos, or if you are curious about this style of taco, this is where you need to be. Go get some. read more

My husband and I visited for the 1st time and the food was good! The food was very hot and fresh!! From some of the pictures and videos it looks like this place is bigger than what it is. This place only has kiosk ordering so please have a debit or credit card available. The place smells strong of fried food so if you can't handle that don't sit in and eat. read more

Great quesabirria tacos for the price! Definitely a go to spot! The owner was very friendly and attentive as well! Really recommend for the price! read more

This place is amazing! They got me just from seeing the pictures of these tacos alone. I had to walk here and try it for myself before I left Chicago. I'm not kidding. I literally walked in the heat and took the train just to get these tacos! It was so worth it. I had the 2 pack Birria and regretted it because they were so good-I wanted the 3 pack immediately. I can easily say these were the best birria tacos I ever had just based on the amount of cheese they used in the tacos, the meat quality, taco temperature, and the freshness of the ingredients. The tacos were so good, thatI forgot to use the onions, cilantro, and consommé they gave me. All I did was squeeze a lime on the tacos, and then I got to work! Told my local friends about this place, and they'll be by too. Shoutout to the owner as well, as he was very sweet to me and all of the other patrons in the establishment. Highly recommend this spot. People typically think Florida has good Hispanic food and tacos-sorry, no Chicago does it better! read more

Great food and super friendly! A different take on the birria that works well. The crispy shell gives a nice texture to the cheese and birria. Speaking of cheese and birria, this thing is stuffed! A lot of goodness. Would like the consume to be more flavorful but rest of the flavors made up for that. read more

Definitely worth all the hype! I honestly almost gave up on this place because they were sold out on our first two attempts. For that reason we tried a different "popular" place. And although that was tasty, Quesabirria Jalisco is hands down the best! The third attempt was the charm and at this point I was ready to be disappointed ... I almost wanted to NOT like it, but it is truly and undeniably delicious! We ordered the six pack; three chicken, three steak. The shells were crunchy, the meat was juicy and flavorful and the cheese quotient (melted in the middle and crisp on the edges) was perfect. We also loved the sauces, especially the pink one, which I believe is called the "bussin" sauce lives up to its name! The consume' was good but second to one I had in Texas, though this was definitely better overall. I can't forget to mention how cool and hospitable the owner was. He had no idea it was our third trip there. Along with the food and service he definitely made it worthwhile. The whole vibe was warm and welcoming. The place is small but the energy is definitely big in the best way. Already looking forward to the next time! read more

the tacos tacos were the best I ever had in my life. Very filling. The condiments were great as well. they jarritos and Horracha which is authentic. opens at set times in the afternoon but well worth the wait, which is maybe 10 minutes, and the price. As of now it's going to take awhile to knock the crown off the king. read more

Food was amazing! The tacos are filling, they definitely give you your moneys worth! Absolutely coming back when I come back to Chicago.

IYKYK. Quite possibly the best tacos in the city. Quite possibly the best meal to feed a family under $50. This is only my 2nd or 3rd expense cause at the previous location the hours were crazy. Happy to know that this place is in Pilsen which is close proximity to my condo. For now they only accept cash or Venmo. Parking can be tumultuous but it was free on this Sunday afternoon. Twas my fist experience with their shrimp & I consider my appetite to be quite healthy & I can only consume two maybe 3 tacos because they're hefty to say the least. The tacos are just fine by themselves but when you add the accompanying sauces, lime wedges, onion & cilantro it takes them too a while other level. The owner is a lovely person to say the least. There's nostalgic items everywhere on the walls. This interior seems a bit bigger than the previous location but not by much. Nonetheless get your ass to this place asap. read more

Best place for Quesabirria tacos - HANDS DOWN!! Service is great with a smile and ambiance is ok, b/c of limited seating.

At first I thought the food was a bit pricy. Then... we actually got it. My sister and I went there for lunch not realizing we could've just ordered a "3 pack" and still had enough food. The tacos were fresh and very meaty. Its a cute little no frills place with good, friendly service. read more

Ordered the 3 pack which consist of chicken, beef, and shrimp quesabirrias. They stuff them with a lot of meat, seafood and cheese. All tasted good. Consommé was more on the liquid inside, however it was full of flavor. Jamaica and Horchata was refreshing and also good. The guy working the counter, and the background music was the best. Tip: the onions and cilantro is inside the aluminum foil under the limes. Thank u read more

Arrived 20 minutes after they opened and waited about an hour in total for our food. This is a small establishment with limited seating so keep in mind, and plan to take to go. We had the chicken and birria tacos and they were 10/10. We also ordered a side of rice and did not like it. read more

It says so on the storefront. The tacos are rich and hearty and the thing to get! So go get it!

Traveled from CA and found this gem. Some of the most delicious quesobirrra tacos I have had. I'll be back when I visit Chicago again.

Ohmygod. There is nowhere else you want to go to for birria, I promise I believe they also either have a new location or an addition I can't be sure. But try them ASAP!!! read more

I found this place because I at UIC and this place was close with a great rating. The tacos are AMAZING!!!!! They are so flavorful, cheesy, and stuffed full of meat. I thought the beef was going to the best but the chicken and shrimp ate fire and that green salsa is something I should have gotten extra of because it's sooooo freaking delicious. The customer service is amazing, I'm definitely going back read more

Quesabirria Jalisco - Tacos Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Taking a star off because the restaurant isn't consistent with their open times and food availability. If people are going there to eat this food, they expect it to be available when the restaurant says they're open. Other than that, the food is good. However, there are other quesabirria options available in the city that are just as good and are open consistently. Service and ambiance is fine, no issues there. Just don't expect this place to be open whenever they're supposed to be. read more

Service is great, so welcoming! The food... man... another level! Just the meat by itself is amazing. Loading on all goodies makes every bite take you to heaven. Our first stop coming from NY. Wish we lived close by. read more

The birria tacos were great. I'm not a huge meat fan but I still enjoyed them. The rice was really wonderful. The flavor in it was something I couldn't pin point but it was done well! I would definitely have it again. Looking forward to coming back. They do not accept credit cards, so be prepared. They do accept zelle, cash app, Venmo, and regular cash. I do think it would be beneficial to have a big sign saying credit cards aren't accepted. read more

You are missing out. Quesabirria's are on point, best I've ever had. Don't be afraid to try the shrimp quesabirria too, nice big shrimp w the cheese, yes please. Super friendly and grateful owner, he appreciates every single person that walks in the place. He shows nothing but love and respect. Love hanging out w my kid and smashing a few tacos there. To the owner, thank you for doing your thing, you made the right move pal, see ya soon. read more
