Let me tell you about this beauty of a Mexican joint. These people are always so kind, the food is always fresh and tasty, and they stay open late to serve you in all states of mind. I used to live around the block and go to this joint almost once a week - I live in wicker park now and still make a stop pretty frequently. A few of my favorites: Chicken tacos w/ onions and cilantro Pastor Tacos are so , that marinade Steak quesadilla - get in my belly You can't go wrong here. Treat them kindly and they will hook you up - but I shouldn't be the one to remind you of that! Spread love everywhere read more

I've been coming to this place for years. I know you're asking why get nachos at a Taco/Burrito place? Well, that's what I wanted today. I definitely will be back for the tacos and burritos. Not necessarily for the veggie nachos. They've been around so long this review is probably insignificant. But I thought I'd give my 2 cents while here. read more

This place is really popular amongst the local college students and neighbors. But their horchata is my all time favorite. Not just my favorite in Chicago, but my favorite from any city I've tried it in! I would come here just for the horchata and the refills they'd sometimes offer. Other than their soul satisfying horchata, I also liked their food. It's good late night drunk food. Nothing high quality or fancy. But it's that good dirty greasy food that makes you feel comfortably home. read more

We have had the pleasure of enjoying their Fresh & Tasty food for years. We have had 2 catering events for our family and I try to visit on Tuesdays. Don't we all love Taco Tuesdays They are so warm and welcoming, their storefront , ambiance and smiles. We enjoy their Steak Tacos, Chicken Tacos , Guacamole and of course, Horchata. So delicious. read more

Great, quick food!! The tacos are so fresh (you can literally see them cooking/making it), and yet they are very inexpensive! For two meals and one drink it cost $20, the second I placed my order, the food was ready! It is such a fast and easy place to eat whether it's for lunch or late at night! There is also fun Spanish music playing! read more

There is no way this should have 3.5 stars - it should easily have 5! Quick and delicious Mexican food! I got their steak burrito. It was $13 and absolutely worth the price! read more

This place is the definition of dive hole-in-the-wall. Perfect for those drunken late night good eats as it is open until 5am on Friday and Saturday. I ordered carry-out tacos and guacamole and chips. I was bringing dinner over to my friends apartment so I ordered a hefty number of tacos. 12 tacos total - mix of chicken, pork and steak. I got them on corn tortillas but you can order flour tortillas too. The tacos were LOADED with meat and topped with mozzarella cheese, tomatoes, onions and cilantro. They were very good tacos overall, and held up well during the commute. The guac had a very good flavor as well. This is a perfect place for quick eats and carry out. I would not recommend eating in store, not too much seating and there was an odd smell coming from the closet where they kept cleaning supplies. read more

Taco & Burrito House - Tacos on corn tortillas - Mexican Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Super good food. Got the Vegetarian Breakfast Burrito with everything in it and added the green salsa while eating. Really kind and helpful staff. Very quick as well. read more

3.5 stars Wanted a really quick bite near our massage place, and this was down the street. The interior decor looks kind of sketchy like you'd probably get sick from eating here. The tables with little squares that look like bathroom tiles don't help. But the food was pretty good! No doubt it would make pretty good drunk food, but even during actual meal times, it would be a really good place to eat. Best of all, its sooo cheap. The junior burritos are under $5 and are very decently sized, more than enough to fill me up. Get beef tongue! It was so much more tender than I expected and super flavorful. read more

Today I went in and ordered $31 worth of food I asked for sour cream and the woman said it's not free that would be an extra charge please help me understand how if I were to sit in the restaurant they would have given it to me free and as much as i use to go here I no longer will read more

Stopped at Taco & Burrito House for a mid-week lunch and it was very ok at best. Ordered a chicken burrito, and it came out within 5-10 min, with a red & green salsa. The tortilla was griddled to the point of being crispy & rigid, and neither of the salsas left a mark. Would recommend a number of other Mexican places in the nearby area, but this spot will get you a quick & inexpensive burrito in a pinch. read more

The food is decent quality, nothing that'll have you saying "man I've got to come back here again'" besides the cheap prices. More for like a quick stop or after your veeeeryyy drunk. Go here at times because it's close to my job. Nice people though read more

This place is the best for a late night taco/burrito/nachos!! Their pastor nachos are SO good along w their burritos (chicken or pastor are my fav) and I've tried the pastor, asada, chicken and veggie taco all of which are great! :) read more

Bo here if you've been drinking. Otherwise, I don't know. Enchiladas are good. Pretty spicy.

Hesitant to come here because of the reviews, but I walked in and the cashier was super friendly and the horchata was amazing. Angie treated us like family. The enchiladas with the green sauce reminds me of California burritos. Good place read more

If you want Mexican food around the northwest tip of Lincoln park, don't go anywhere else. They make decent burritos, especially compared to other spots in the neighborhood, and are very vegetarian friendly. Service is excellent and prices are great read more

I love this place and have been coming for years. The steak is fantastic and the place is clean and the hot sauce is fantastic. Great tacos!

This rating does not deserve a star, but I had to post one in order to proceed with my review. I order from Taco & Burrito House at 1458 W. Fullerton at least once a week and usually the same order. Today my ordered included extra food that i did not order. I repeated my order twice before hanging up but there was no disputing it. The guy said he took the order and knew what he heard. He worked so fast and my debit card was charged before i realized the extra charge. When i told him i would not order from there again, he merely shrugged his shoulders and said, "We'll see, they all say that. Our food is so good, you will be back." Nope, never again will i order from there. Hospitality plays an important roll, especially during this time. Cindy at the law firm read more

Wanted to try it because is close to home, it was SOOOO good!!! I'll become a regular for sure! I ordered tortillas ... I took them home and even after that they were super crunchy and delicious! read more

This is a small place where their food is very fresh and home-made. Their specialist in Burritos Steak, pastor and or chicken. Speacially, I love their steak tacos served with lettuce, sour cream and cheese or mexican way: cilantro, onion and lime. Their steak burrito Suizo( melted cheese and red mole) and served with a horchata. read more

Ok so coming from a Mexican Mexican (a Mexican who knows Mexican food).. I knew that in the area that this restaurant is located perhaps it wasn't gonna be the BEST Mexican food. But we were hungry so we decided to give it a shot. My sister and I Ordered a steak burrito, beef tongue taco, and a steak taco. It sucked!! I couldn't finish my burrito. The "steak" was flavorless. Seemed like it was reheated "steak" for like the last month. The beef tongue was chewy, dark and flavorless. There was a guy that was walking in as we were coming out .. he took a look at the inside and walked right back out lol (we should've done the same) I'm all about giving small businesses a try regardless of how small they look. But for this one I'm NEVER COMING BACK! read more

I've been ordering Uber eats from here for several months now mostly because it's cheap and decent, however the last three or four times I've ordered from here it seems like they just stopped giving a shit about food quality. The last time I ordered I got the chorizo and scrambled eggs which comes with rice and refried beans. They completely left out the eggs...like wtf. It was just a large splat of cold, flavorless, over cooked "chorizo" mush. My dog eats higher quality dog food compared to whatever the fuck that was. On top of that the refried beans were cold and had the consistency of water. Literal liquid. The rice was the only edible part of that horrific "meal", the rest went in the garbage shoot. Never ever again. read more

The following is a true story: I was in the neighborhood picking up a friend for Halloween weekend when I happened to park in front of TBH. Turned out my friend lived in the apartment behind this place. It was around 6pm and I was starving. I knew I had to eat something before hittin' the town so I decide to eat here since I'm already here. Walking inside I could see a three-man team behind the counter waiting for me. The place seemed somewhat empty. I feared not. Usually my go-to choice for Mexican food is a steak burrito or a couple lengua tacos (yeah, I'm all about the tongue). Lo and behold, the menu listed BEEF TONGUE BURRITO as an option. Up until now I had never ordered a lengua burrito...but that's because I've never seen it as an option. I was so excited. I placed my order at the front counter and made sure to tell them to ADD CILANTRO (pro-tip: it's not normally included). Within two minutes they handed me a brown bag (I ordered to-go) and I ran back to my friend's place to eat it. I open the bag 'n took a couple bites...I was in BURRITO HEAVEN. Never before had I enjoyed a burrito this much...and I was sober. One of my favorite things about this burrito is that it doesn't come with rice. Who needs rice? More room for meat! Sour cream was standard...as if they knew. Everything in this burrito melded together perfectly. They threw in a tiny container of red salsa & green salsa. Both were good. My buddy and I cabbed it around town to attend a few Halloween parties.Three parties, eight hours, and a couple drinks later I came back to pick up my car...and was hungry. Can you guess what I was thinking? HELL YES...TWICE. Oh yes I did! (It was technically a different day, right?) This time there was a line going out the door! I didn't care. The burrito team behind the counter was taking care of business...crankin' them out. Before I knew it I was sitting down staring at another beef tongue burrito. This time I had squeeze bottles of hot sauce 'n salsa verde. I ordered an horchata to wash it down. My plate looked clean. No shame here. Fast. Tasty. Cheap. Great portions. Good Horchatas. Minus two stars for the grease. Add one star because the grease was tasty! I don't always eat beef tongue burritos, but when I do...I eat them at TBH...two at a time. read more

My husband and I live a few blocks away and we LOVE TBH. It has become our go-to when we don't feel like making dinner. I always get the chicken tacos, which come with cheese, lettuce, tomato, and sour cream (I love that they automatically com with tomatoes/sour cream). My husband gets the king size fajita steak burrito and raves about it. The flavors are amazing, portions are generous, etc. we usually get chips and guac or refried beans to share. Delicious! Workers are always friendly too! Highly recommend. Great prices, perfect hole in the wall neighborhood fave. read more

Fresh and as nongreasy as it gets--I actually did not feel gross or bloated after eating a burrito. And it was delicious. What a gem. They heat their tortillas over the grill so it's all warm and cripsy. Mmmm. The junior size was plenty, I can't imagine how big a king is! What's great about it is that most burrito places use rice as their filler but here at TBH, there's NO rice--just the good stuff. I recommend the pollo and steak. Prices are also ridiculously reasonable. read more

This is a hole in the wall sort of place that may leave people questioning whether or not they want to try it but give it a try! The chicken fajita meal is so good! The chicken taste fresh and it comes with cooked bell peppers, rice and beans. All the food is seasoned well, cooked well and tasty. The fajitas come with hot soft tortillas on the side. I would not suggest this as a dine in place but definitely recommend for take out! read more

Although the no-frills name may steer away the creative burrito buyer, there are many SOLID reasons why the Taco & Burrito House is an excellent late night option: 1) The people who work here are friendly, quick and informative 2) The bathroom is CLEAN. Holy, crap what a crapper! 3) Quite a steal - those burritos are massive! 4) Crushed ice 5) You don't wind up with a nasty case of the F.P. the next day (this is probably the most important plus). Just don't order the Nachos (they're a Nach-NO in my book) and you will have a happy late night experience. Promise. read more

I've been coming to this Taco & Burrito house since 1996 and it is one of the best in the area. Not all "taco spots" are created equally. Come here and you'll understand what I mean. My favorites are the "Fajita Dinner" or the "Steak Nacho Supreme." They use real cheese, not fake cheese like TBK. Almost anything you buy is under $10 and I've never had a bad meal. If you are looking for quantity and plan on buying a taco dinner, just order the fajita dinner. You'll get a huge plate of steak, lettuce, tomatoes, peppers, beans, rice and a separate container holding warm tortillas. You can make at least (6) tacos and get alot more food! (Can you tell I'm fat?!) lol. TIPS** This place is open very late and on Saturday nights you will have drunk yuppies and thugs. lol. Also, they do have a bathroom but you have to "know" about it. Just ask, you have to walk through the kitchen though. Seating in the entire restaurant is weird. When it's busy people are in your personal space, a cold draft will also find it's way in and parking is horrible. I suggest parking on Bosworth NOT Fullerton unless you are just running in. DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT PARKING AT THE BUILDING ACROSS THE STREET. They will tow you immediately. read more

I ended up here late last night with a bunch of Taco & Burrito House fans. I tried the Junior chicken burrito (after the warning that the normal sized one is absolutely gigantic) and wasn't overly impressed. I think I prefer Chipotle! read more

My favorite taco place in Chicago. The service is super fast, even on a busy weekend night/'way early morning. This place is popular with the after bar crowd, like me. I am a huge fan of their veggie burrito. For some reason, I am thrilled with the lettuce they use, I"m not kidding. They are super nice, never lose their cool with all the drunk frat boys, and are always super willing to make substitutions to the orders. Taco Burrito House, you have my vote! read more

These guys are burrito making machines. Even when its 2am and the place is jammed with drunks, they turn out those cheap burritos fast. This place makes the best cheese quesadillas. Seriously, I don't know why they are so damn tasty but they are. You can get one as a side when you order a meal. I love tortas, and their steak torta is a classic. It is also one of the cheapest items on the menu- you can get a torta meal with a drink and 2 sides for under 6 bucks. If I'm not feeling like a torta, I always get the chicken flautas. Soooo good. I once took a group of drunk out of town co-workers here and they loved it- I was the late night hero. read more

The quality of the food compared to the fast preparation is incredibly high. The service is exceptionally nice, even with a room of people going home from the bars. I recommend the steak fajita burrito, its my new all time favorite! You can get a nice meal with the few bucks left over from the bar! read more
