Ok these tacos were extremely fire. They corn tortilla seem to be made to order! Soooooo fresh. The tortillas were hotter than the asada lol! . Asada tender and seasoned. Great location and portions. Wasnt busy and they forgot 1/5 tacos i ordered. Paid for 5 and rice and beans came out to $25. That means 4.80 an item smh. Sauces are really good. Next time will ask if it comes with grilled pepper. read more

They don't cook the food fresh. The food does not taste good. he said he cooked the meat in the morning and leaves it in a steamer. I will not come back. read more

We stopped in for a very light dinner. Super clean! Friendly service!!Fell in love with the perfectly homemade tamales! The guacamole was so fresh and well made! Great selection of sodas and drinks. Surprisingly there was also all types of ice cream options!! Hit the brakes for this one and stop on in!! You won't regret it! read more

Tacatz Tacos - Menu - Cafes Near Me - Geneva, Illinois

Located in a small strip mall. I most likely would come here for to go orders but there are a few tables to dine in at. I really like their chicken quesadillas. Mainly because they use small pieces of chicken in it and it's the perfect chicken, cheese, tortilla ratio. This is actually pretty hard to find (at least to meet my ridiculous preferences). I'm excited to try more food from here! read more

Very good authentic food. They also have a ton of homemade Mexican ice cream bars as well. I would highly recommend their taco dinner, their elote is very delicious as well as their burritos. Make sure to call because they do have specials that aren't on their menu always! read more

Awesome food, awesome service, down to earth prices, and amazing ice cream! You cannot go wrong with a stop at Tacatz!!

Best burritos in the area by far with great sauce. Mexican hot dogs are killer too. Couldn't recommend it more. Worked in the area the last two years this was a staple while I was here. Gonna miss it! read more

I see here that people like it. Maybe I came on a bad day? I had the steak tacos. The steak was lacking flavor, even salt. The rice and beans were delicious. read more

the owner is rude and makes orders wrong. Doesn't care. No restroom to wash your hands.

I work around the corner from Tacatz, so it's in my regular rotation of lunch spots. I've tried a bit of everything there, but I keep going back to the shredded chicken torta. So good! Keep an eye on the message board by the register - sometimes there are killer specials. The chicken tamales were fantastic today, for example. Quick, inexpensive, and flavorful food, plus, I appreciate that they remember my order from visit to visit. Highly recommended. read more

I'm a regular at Tacatz, about once a week. In a word, it's about the salsa. Drizzle the red or green salsa on anything he serves and it will take the food to a whole new level. With that said, the food is great on it's own too. Best refried beans I have ever had. Rice isn't too shabby either. Burritos are my go-to. My son says the chicken fajitas blow away anything in the Tri-cities. Huge menu, something for everyone. Also, during lent they have shrimp tacos with a great sauce. Skip the overpriced downtown Geneva fusion joints and visit Tacatz. read more

Tacatz Tacos - a menu on the wall - Cafes Near Me - Geneva, Illinois

Great tasting food and good service. Try the paletas de fruta, they are amazing! There's so many flavors to choose from!

Best tacos in Geneva. Hands down. Very friendly staff, great service. My go-to for tacos.

Update: I reached out to the owner who was very accommodating. I ordered no onions through the app. He has onions in his meat, which was the reason he didn't put very much in. Although the replacement burrito was way-heavy on filler, the taste was fantastic, the net burrito weight had to approach that of a medium-sized kitten, and I'm proud to support a true mom and pop shop. Earlier one-star review: Ordered a burrito through Uber eats. They were fast but two bites in I had to unwrap the burrito as I tasted no meat. All beans and rice. I know times are tough but that's just wrong. read more

Tacatz Tacos - Meatless burrito. - Cafes Near Me - Geneva, Illinois

Asada Tacos and I also got the Street Corn. Was delicious. Very nice and clean. Will call in advance next time just to make it easier on them, will be coming back! Authentic and spicey. read more

So first of all, Tacatz definitely needs some more love on Yelp. Hopefully some more yelpers get over here and check this place out. The service: The man working was extremely friendly and accommodating. He was willing to edit anything on the menu to be to our liking, and said he reminds all of his guests they'll adjust anything. The food: We had chicken tacos, a side of elote, and a fajita wrap. The food was a win all around - simple and delicious! The spot: Really underwhelming. It was not a place you'd want to stick around and eat in. We got our food to go. To go: This was a big problem. Considering the restaurant LOOKS like it's mostly to-go orders, the food spilled in the bag before I even left the restaurant. By the time I got home the bottom of the bag actually fell apart and the food fell out. Luckily I had a towel in my car to put the bag on...but what a mess. That was pretty disappointing. Overall, I'd give Tacatz another try. But I really hope they amp up their interior a bit and get a web presence so people can view their menu online, etc. read more

It is hard to find these authentic tacos. They were so good I ate eight my self, and being I couldn't fit any more after that, I just got four more to eat, they were so delicious!!! Delicious tongue tacos!!! Their ochata drink is to die for read more

The food is tasty and the service is great. The burritos are excellent. Highly recommend the fajita wraps.

The owner is always in there working hard and is super nice...just as important, the food is great too! Definitely one of those places you can come back to. read more

Excellent service and customer service and especially the food I ordered several times and the food is very delicious and the horchata water is delicious. read more

Great place for a fast lunch. Good prices and amazing ice cream and service! Owner is a great guy with the memory of an elephant !

Tacatz hooks it up every time and never fails to deliver the most amazingly delicious food !!

I've gotten the steak tacos a few times from here and they are good. We order for lunch every once in a while and they are quick with making all of our food. Never had any complaints from me or my employees. Would recommend. read more

Great tacos especially carne asada. The owner is so nice and friendly. Everything is well priced too. Plus it's fast.

Ordered carry-out recently, and really enjoyed everything! The tacos were all delicious - we tried the carne asada, both kinds of chicken (shredded chicken was my favorite) and chorizo. The green salsa was perfect! The beans were a little thick, but had great flavor. Rice was okay. The service was top notch and prices were on point as well. Will absolutely return whenever I'm craving tacos. read more

Great tacos at a great price. I mostly eat the steak tacos for carry out. Always tasty and ready fast. They also provide limes and their red and green hot sauces. This place is my go-to for tacos. read more

Discovered this place a month ago and the great food keeps me going back. Shredded chicken tacos and loaded nachos are amazing! Reminds me of food my Mom makes, that's how I know it's good. You get a bag of lime slices and a really good flavored red and green sauce(s) with your order. Super friendly staff, quick service, and consistently delicious food! read more

Great food, great prices! My husband got a chicken burrito and it was huge and flavorful. My pork tamale wasn't dry like many tamales are; it was cooked really nicely but was spicier than I expected! Not in a bad way. The steak taco with cilantro and onions also wasn't dry - neither the meat nor the tortillas. It was the best I've had in the area. The kids loved their ham and cheese quesadilla. Plus rice and beans, all for about $20! Everyone cleaned their plates. We took the food to go. The gentleman working seemed nice - we're all about supporting local businesses like this. We will definitely be back, to try the nachos, tortas, and elotes next. read more

Very friendly staff, good food. Ordered the marinated pork (special today) and steak & onion,cilantro lettuce tacos and side of guacamole instead of salsa. The marinade included pineapple and was very tasty. Should have ordered 2! The steak taco was OK, I thought the steak although tender was rather bland and not quite enough cilantro/onion etc. They did not skimp on lime, received one half. The guacamole was homemade and had an extra zing of lime flavor which was great. Price was under $4, great deal. Was disappointed...no homemade horchata! But they said they were working on this and would have it soon. Place is clean, used to be a pizza place, wonder what they are going to do with that huge oven ;) read more

I have been a few dozen times now. The Chicken tacos are pretty decent. The steak burrito was pretty bland for the high price. The elote is good. I would recommend getting the Horchata. Tuesday is the best day to go because they have $1 chicken tacos. Their green sauce is a very nice touch to a taco. They also sell a "snack mix" with corn nuts ect that is very good. read more

This place keeps getting better! Now renovated. Lots of room to eat. Friendly family owners. Good beer next door at Hammers! read more

Tacatz Tacos - the inside of a restaurant - Cafes Near Me - Geneva, Illinois

Echoing other's sentiments, great steak tacos and guacamole. On the smaller size, so you may want order one more than you typically would. The horchata as a little too sweet for my liking. read more

Omg good! We have been frequenting this place since it opened and it's authentic and amazing. My husband loves the Melanesia torta and the elote is hands down one of the best in the burbs. I get the steak burrito and it's not greasy unlike a lot of other places. We come about once a month and the owner even remembers that I like to substitute rice instead of beans. Highly recommend read more

The chicken tacos are really good. We get the .99 Chicken Taco special on Tuesdays and love them. Service is uninspiring, which is too bad because the food is fresh and tasty. read more

Food is just okay and chips are the kind you'd buy at a cheap concession stand, a little on the pricey side for the quality. Guacamole was excellent but terrible chips to dip in it. read more

At our workplace, we have always wanted a good Mexican restaurant within distance. When we heard about Tacatz Tacos opening up, we were quite excited about it. The few times we have tried their food has always been good, and with good prices to match too! However, every time we have ordered from here, they always get the same thing wrong. That order is this: Anything that is supposed to be Chicken is always replaced with Steak! Whether it be tacos, burritos, or even the fajita wrap, if we order Chicken, we always get Steak! Even if the wrapper of whatever food it is says Chicken, it will always be Steak! Because of this, we are thinking of going here less often. read more

First time here and was way underwhelmed. Ordered three steak tacos, because if the tacos suck, you can rest assured the rest will follow. First thing I noticed is that nothing comes with cheese on it. Nothing. Burrito, Torta, Taco, doesn't matter. Don't forget to ask for cheese if that's what you like. Got my food, and the steak is chopped and pulverized into microscopic pieces. I am always leery of any mexican place that chops their food up so fine. What is it they are hiding? Tacos had almost no meat, tiny bit of lettuce, tiny bit of cheese and one very thin half-slice of tomato. Not even close to $6.50 worth of food. They are on full size tortilla, but I've seen miniature street tacos, with more on them. The tacos tasted pleasant enough, though the meat seemed more like seasoned ground beef than steak. If you are looking for a meaty Chicago style taco like at Zaca or Paco's, forget about it, this isn't the place. You'll spend ten bucks and still leave here hungry. On a side note, I had a bizarre exchange with the woman behind the counter. I asked for a small cup of water, as I can't drink soda. She told me "We don't actually have any cups to give out." which was bullshit. On the counter behind her were two 4 foot tall stacks of small Styrofoam cups. I pointed to the stack and said "How about one of those?" She then said, "...well we actually don't have any water to give out". Ummm, OK. I said tap water would be fine, She then proceeded to tell me that the Geneva tap water was unfiltered and unsafe to use. "I'll risk it." I said and that was that. Like I said, just kind of bizarre. If you want god tacos in the area, this is the last place I'd drive to. Jalapeno Grill in St. Charles is 100x better. read more

We love Tacatz Tacos! We go every week and get mostly chicken tacos and a few sides. The owner is so friendly! We love supporting small businesses especially when they are so good!!! read more
