Beautiful place. Mole Poblano mmmm Chicharron whith salsa green . I Recommend the best restaurant . You can drink the Margarita Lulu or any other flavors or Beers I love Daisy or Guinness . INo forget the experience read more

I was excited to try this restaurant, which is fully vegetarian and vegan. They are a scratch kitchen and make their own plant-based meats and cheeses. Since I was overwhelmed by all the menu choices, I asked my server what he recommended. He told me that one of the more popular dishes is the steak enchiladas. So I ordered it! The meal was plentiful, and overall, the food tasted great. Although I have to say I wasn't a fan of the potato cheese. I also didn't love the complimentary chips and salsa; the chips aren't the texture I prefer, and the salsa seemed watery. The server was excellent. I also like the plant decor. 4/5 stars for ALL of the vegan options! I can't wait to try more food here! read more

Quesadilla La Reyna Del Sur - Vegan Steak Enchiladas with salsa verde - Mexican Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Been coming here for a decade, and it's authentic Mexican. Many eating there enjoying the varying delicious fake meat options, spiced just right, and protein packed. Even the meat eaters are surprised at the texture and flavor. Their beans and rice have always been one of my favorites in the city. They have a large selection of juices and shakes and full bar. The food came to our table crazy fast, within minutes. Fernando is an excellent server, and a joy to chat with. I've only had one dining experience right after their move next door that wasn't on par, but they are back on their game and spot on! read more

We love this spot. Best chorizo tacos we've had. Oh, and their pozole verse on Sundays hits all the RIGHT spots. We've been coming to eat here for over a year now. They have a list of all the typical Mexican dishes, but they're vegetarian/vegan. Then after their Pilsen location closed, they acquired the liquor license and now they have DRANKS!! Guys, come eat here without the guilt! The location is space, has room/space for large parties, and they have even closed down their restaurants for catering larger parties. That picture is of two chorizo tacos and two Al pastor ... So delicious! read more

Quesadilla La Reyna Del Sur - Tacos de Chorizo & Alpastor - Mexican Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I got a juice there, the restaurant was pleasant and quiet, but I really didn't like that they overcharged me discreetly and wouldn't honor the menu price. They first charged me $9.50 for a juice that's $7.75 on the menu and when I pointed it out she was so pushy and said 'our prices have increased'. Well then change the menu prices, this is not how you do business read more

I appreciate Quesedilla Pilsen's expansive and entirely vegetarian menu, which has a large range of soy-based meats from steak to pork to chicken to sausage. The interior seating is pretty casual, and the service is quick and friendly. Overall, I wasn't the biggest fan of their breads and tortillas for their tortas and quesadillas, but I enjoyed the flavors of the interior fillings. I ordered the Xochimilco Quesadilla, which contains steak soy meat, onion, tomato, cactus, and mushroom. The outer tortilla was a little too thick and dry in texture for my liking, but the soy meat inside tasted pretty good. I also had the Veggie Cubana Torta, which contains soy Mexican sausage, soy bacon, and soy chicken. Again, the bread was too dry and thick for my liking-- the ratio of filling to bread as a bit off to me. But the soy meats along with the sauce and veggies inside were flavorful. They also provide complimentary chips and salsa for the table, which is nice. The prices are pretty affordable too, so I'd be interested in coming back in the future to try their other menu items, many of which looked good and were hard to choose between. -- Price (relative to peers): 4.3/5 Food: 4/5 Ambience: 4.5/5 Service: 4.8/5 Overall Value: 4.2/5 read more

Quesadilla La Reyna Del Sur - Taco meal - Mexican Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Amazing everything. Great food selection, fresh juice bar menu, vegan and vegetarian friendly. Has kind fast service and decorated cute. I would recommend this to anyone you get large portions for a reasonable price. Just found this place and it's my new favorite spot for Mexican food. read more

What caught our eyes was the front window open and how vibrant the inside was! Love the pops of color. Service was quick and we got pastor de soya, chorizo de soya , and Xochimilco tacos, ranchera torta, classic and anti aging smoothies. The pastor one has pineapples and the Xochimilco was a random one I chose because I saw that it had cactus in it. Of the three I personally liked the chorizo taco. My friend does not recommend the ranchera torta because it was on the bland side. The smoothies were pretty good though. The classic one has grapefruit in it and now it's become my friends favorite fruit to add to her smoothies after trying it here! Also it's pretty cool that it's a vegetarian Mexican spot. read more

The moment I entered the restaurant I was greeted with a smile. The place was not crowded and the place was clean. I ordered red chilaquiles with chicken and a chia lemon cucumber drink. The food was amazingly delicious and the best part was the red sauce, which was not spicy. The host was so nice he brought more red sauce to the table. I will definitely will be returning. read more

Quesadilla La Reyna Del Sur - Vegetales Quesadilla - Mexican Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I was excited to find a vegetarian/vegan Mexican restaurant near Concord Music Hall. Quesadilla was walkable and made for a great pre-show dinner. I really enjoyed the vegetable burrito (included tomatoes, carrots, broccoli and more). My older daughter really enjoy a quesadilla with the soy chorizo crumbles. My younger daughter got a basic cheese only quesadilla. Quesadilla was marked as $ on Yelp, but should really be $$ for price. It is sit down and you should expect to pay $10-20 per person for food/entree. read more

We weren't even planning to go here and it turned out to be a gem. First off, it was welcoming in there. The service was top notch!! They answered all my questions about the menu options and the food came out fast. 5 stars - Tacos. Authentic and quality street taco style. But larger in size. We definitely left here feeling satisfied with all the flavors. The tacos were constructed with double corn tortilla, a lot of meat filling, and topped with cilantro and onions. 5 stars - Pastor taco. My favorite. It was so flavorful. The meat alternative was tender yet had a nice chew to it. There were small pieces of pineapple that complimented the savory pastor flavor really well. I would go back and order this again! 5 stars - Tinga taco. Also my favorite. The flavor was smoky and savory. They season their meats well, and they strike a good balance with their flavors. This one was a little spicy, but not too much. 5 stars - Chorizo taco. So yummy. I had a bite of this one and it was wonderful. Instantly regretted not ordering a whole one for myself. It had this chipotle smoky flavor. And better than other plant based chorizos I've had. Extra credit goes to the pickled salsa they brought to the table. It was spicy though. And I can handle heat. However, because of it's spice and citrusy flavor it was a great add to the tacos! As you can see, I really enjoyed this place. This place is in my list of favorites for Chicago. read more

Quesadilla La Reyna Del Sur - Tacos - Mexican Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I still daydream about this place. Get more than you think you'll eat (if you can) - you'll want it later. It's always my first food stop when I'm back in Chicago. Service is great - zero ambiance, because FOOD - eating at the restaurant is my preference, but take-out carries well and is elite next day. read more

Best Mexican I've ever had- incredible vegan options. The horchata and vampiro was incredible too

This place is a classic that recently opened a new location next door to their old (which, btw had around a thousand reviews...? Yelp, can we get those back for them?) the new space is inviting, more spacious, but has the same food you know and love (or should if you haven't tried it!) Try anything that speaks to you. There are no bad options. If you want a variety, get a few different tacos! Also, always get horchata. Enjoy! read more

Sometime ago I discovered Quesadilla La Reyna del Sur while driving down Western Avenue en-route to work; its vegan food logo caught my eye. While searching through reviews via Yelp I noted that it was endorsed by Yelpers Dan H, Angela S, and Khadijah H who I am connected with. The day of my order I ordered takeout via Yelp which is very convenient if you know what you want beforehand. On the menu, the food options were lengthy, but very readable! I ended up ordering an Asada de Soya Quesadilla with a Cheesecake de Tofu, and a pineapple Mexican bottled soda. Only options for parking were either neighborhood or along Western Avenue. If you are planning to dine-in, I advise you to evaluate when you visit because you may end up parking further out in the neighborhood like I; open parking spots are a hit-or-miss. As expected my food was ready, waiting for me at the register upon arrival for pick-up with just a verification of my name. I left with my order just as quickly as I entered the restaurant which is why I love ordering online. There was leakage coming from my bag which I caught prior to taking my quesadillas out of my bag. Ay-ay-ay! As a customer one thing the restaurant can do is assure that orders are sealed tight beforehand or even place something to catch anything that possibly leaks. The Asada de Soya Quesadillas were huge! Not as flavorful as I had hoped, but edible! I ended up eating only one of them and saving the other for later. As for the Cheesecake de Tofu, I can't say it was bad, but the thought of either strawberries, cherries, or chocolate being drenched all over it would have made it freaking amazing! Not bad though for it being Tofu because I had no idea what to expect prior to ordering. All in all, other than the slight leakage I had a satisfying ordering experience. If you are looking for Mexican vegetarian cuisine options look no further than Quesadilla La Reyna del Sur. ~Blessings~   Thomas G read more

The staff is very nice and the vibe is cool. I went in for a take out order. The amount of food received was good for the price. They did mess up my order. I ordered 3 tamales (2 green salsa and another that was not on the menu)...they gave me only 1 green salsa and 2 of the off menu ones. I really didn't enjoy the flavor. I also ordered the huaraches made with asada. It is huge and you're able to share this plate. The texture was my least favorite part and did not taste at all of asada. My brother wanted the asada tacos and it was the same with the flavor and texture of these. My sister in law ordered the flautas, and those were good. Overall I was really not pleased and won't return. I rather make the trip to Healthy Substance for some tastier tacos! read more

Yelp says that they need my help in letting the community decide about this place. No! The community has already decided that it's a great place and I concur! There, done, sheesh. ;-) Joking aside, this is a fun place with delicious vegetarian and vegan food, counter style, but with table service. By dining here, you too can be a quesadilla queen/king of the south, oh wowie zowie, though I don't believe that signing up for the monarchy is a requirement, though I'll sock you if you try to swipe away my tiara! Don't even think about it. We tried lots of food here. We started off our night right with nachos, which were a huge mound of veggies on top of tortilla chips... the bigger, the better, in this case. For our meals, we got burritos and huaraches, each with a different style of veggie protein. I stuck with the regular (not super) burrito and it was plenty of little soy burro for me. The huarache was also on the large side and equally delicious. I beleive that I got the soy lamb on the burrito and soy steak on the huarache, if you're keeping score at home or wherever you're reading this drawn-out diatribe, cough. The final score was soy steak 7, soy lamb 6... or I had had an oh-so slight preference for the soy steak. Dessert was a tres leches cake and I believe that it is vegan (or it uses almond milk in place of dairy, at least). It's one of the best out there. All in all we had a fun night out and I can't wait to come back! read more

This is my second time dining here, so I can say with confidence that the food is underwhelming.

The waitress was pleasant, which is why I gave them two stars. That's my two cents.. Cheers! read more

I'm not vegetarian but had you given this to me and told me it was real meat I would have believed you. The tacos were filled with flavor! And authentic . The chips and guacamole were also great . Due to the business the food did take a bit to come out. But worth the wait Also try the cheesecake - it's got a wild texture . read more

Quesadilla La Reyna Del Sur - Mexican Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I loved this vegan establishment. It's amazing! I love vegan food and I definitely love trying new places. I went here on a Thursday evening for dinner with a vegetarian friend of mine. Upon entering, the delicious spices wake your senses. You really would not be able to tell this place was vegan. I order three American style tacos. I got tinga, carnitas and pastor. Chileeeeee this place is amazing! I couldn't tell which was which but it didn't matter. I recommend this place to any individual who is interested in going vegan, or just interested in trying a vegan dish. The male hostess and server was incredibly knowledgeable about the food choices on the menu. But he was also very informative about the vegan life style choice in general. He really took the time to explain how the restaurant cooks and marinate their vegan meat options. read more

Amazing option for vegan Mexican food. I have been here a total of four times now and have not been disappointed. I have brought many of my friends here both vegan and not. Everyone loves this place. I typically order three tacos with a side of rice and beans. The options are seriously endless. It makes it so hard to choose!!! Although, I have to say the vegetable taco and garibaldi are my go-to options. The vegetable taco is SO well-seasoned. The garibaldi taco has soy-based steak with onion, tomato, jalapeño pepper and mushroom. It has a mild spice, nothing too crazy. The soy-based steak has an amazing texture. I can proudly say this is one of my staple vegan spots in Chicago! Keep making awesome food read more

I miss tacos de al pastor and carne asada, as a vegetarian for the last 25 years. But this restaurant satiates that thirst. Delicious!

This place is delicious! The breakfast, tacos, tortas, and burritos are hearty and flavorful. The vegan options are endless. The breakfast tofu soyrizo I got was amazing. It's a lot of food so you will definitely be stuffed by the time your done. With so many options on their menu this restaurant is great to bring friends and family.

Quesadilla La Reyna Del Sur - Tofu con chorizo - Mexican Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I ordered takeout on their actual website because you get reward points! Pretty awesome. Let's get to it - I tried four of their tacos: - Pollo de Soya c/Nopalitos: Soy-based chicken with cactus - Chicharron: Vegetable based protein pork skin - Pastor de soya: Soy-based marinated grilled pork - Garibaldi: Soy-based steak with onion, tomato, jalapeno pepper and mushrooms Each of the tacos had exceptional flavor. I haven't had meat in years and these hit the spot. I can't rank the tacos by taste because each one was a gem to bite into. The most memorable tasting taco though is the Pollo de Soya c/Nopalitos because of the texture and taste that the cactus brung. Along with the tacos, I ordered a tamale which was filled with soy chicken. It's a good size and I'd get that the next time I order from here again because I was able to save half of it for the next day. Dessert? Platanos Maduros con Crema: fried plantains with soy vegan cream. Nice bed of plantains covered in cream = a bundle of goodness. Topped everything off with a Tamarind Jarritos. I ordered around dinnertime on a weekday and even though their website recommended that the food would be ready in 15-25 minutes, I feel that I waited an extra 10 which is fine by me. The staff was busy in the back filling orders and people kept coming in and out to pick them up which is awesome. I'll be back to support this small business soon, as should you if you're in the area! Vegetarian and vegan friendly menu is always a plus. read more

Super Tasty vegan/vegetarian Mexican food in a very low key and casual environment. The staff is very friendly and sweet.

I kept eating it even though my mouth was on fire! We ordered the Fajitas de Asada de Soya, the Quesadilla Xochimilco and the Vegetarian soup. The Quesadilla Xochimilco was the winner. So flavorful! I would hands down come back just for this. The other items were also solid. Definitely al place to check out! read more

Pure deliciousness. I can't recommend enough. Perfect vegan Mexican food. I wish I could find more restaurants like this. If I lived in Chicago, I would eat here everyday. We started off with a large horchata to share which was good. The chips and salsa were just okay. I like chips that are more fresh and the salsa wasn't anything special. However, our entrees on the other hand, were AMAZING. We got lamb enchiladas with almond cheese and chorizo quesadillas with potato cheese. We weren't sure which cheese to choose for each so we went with our waiter's recommendation and he was spot on. We choose the lamb on the basis of never having had and chorizo in quesadillas sounded interesting. We got both in combination plates so they came with some lettuce, beans, and rice. I love a little lettuce with my Mexican entrees so I'm glad this is one of those places. I'm from LA so I have a high standard for Mexican food, especially since I went vegan later in life so I know what Mexican food with real cheese tastes like. Quesadilla La Reina Del Sur completely lives up. I was also very excited to try the vegan desserts but we were too stuffed. I was eyeing the tres leches cake. Next time I'm in Chicago, I will guaranteed be back. Also shoutout to our super helpful waiter and his great service. I'm a huge fan. Go eat the best Mexican food you've ever had now! read more
