I'm a gremlin and ate all the food before taking a picture but what a pleasant surprise this restaurant was! My partner wanted a quick bite, suggested Taco Bell. About kicked her out of the car, so we decided on taco boom. The flavor was incredible! Service took a while but we just went next door to Heidi's (not on Yelp for some reason, so I will add photos from that! If you bring your receipt from taco boom over, you get a discount. Don't forget to do that!) so I assume they're somehow connected. Hard to tell. (Do not recommend the elote in a cup over there but the ice cream I'm still dreaming about! The dining area was outside but it was like a pleasant picnic. Wouldn't mind coming back and it's close to home. My partner went for the burrito Diablo and quit talking to me if that tells you anything. I got the taco chignon special and it was quite filling. Quick and easy stop in Chicago! read more

I've seen Taco boom a few times as I drive by and decided to give them a try. The parking is limited but was told I can park next door. Menu is posted outside and I went with the al pastor tacos. After you order, you need to go around the other side to pickup. There is no indoor seating and only outside. The taco's are small but the flavor is rich and seasoned. I have to try the other items in the near future. Location closes late till 9pm. read more

I've been driving past Taco Boom Truck for what feels like forever, always catching a whiff of grilled meat or seeing a small line of people and thinking, "One day I'll stop." Well, I finally did, and man, I should've done it way sooner. It's a simple setup, parked off the road, colorful, and always smelling amazing. People were hanging out, eating, and the service was quick and friendly. The guy at the window even gave me some salsa tips when I told him it was my first time. I went with two carne asada tacos. No exaggeration, the meat was so tender and juicy, with this really nice char on the edges. You could taste the seasoning in every bite, nothing overpowering, just that good mix of garlic, citrus, and smoky flavor. The tortillas were warm, soft but sturdy enough to hold everything together (no taco explosions, which is always a win). The green salsa? Wild. It started off kind of mild, then hit with this spicy, peppery kick that crept up in the best way. It had some creamy avocado vibes too, which made it super addictive. Honestly, I kept dipping even after I ran out of taco. If you're in the mood for solid tacos that hit all the right notes, Taco Boom is 100% worth the stop. I already know I'll be back. read more

Taco Boom - Birria tacos! - Food Trucks Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I ordered a lg consume preparado and a stk burrito for me & my son to share. Everything, no sour cream on the burrito. Honestly, I just had the consume and my son had a quarter of the burrito. Both my son & I shared the consume bcuz it was that good; they added chopped onions, cilantro and it had little stringy pieces of birria in it, it was just soooo delicious. For $4.50 a cup who can beat that delicious Mexican soup special. Hope this review encourages more clientele to visit this hot spot. ;) read more

Taco Boom - Taco - Food Trucks Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Whoa mama, it was good! My bf got 2 carne asada tacos and it was the quesabirria pizza for me. First, the tacos. Large pieces of steak, juicy, well seasoned and not at all tough. I was pretty impressed and they had different variations for the steak tacos. Now the pizza. SO MUCH MEAT! Juicy and tender, loaded onto the tortillas that are used as "crust". The piece was very reasonable because one of the 4 pieces they cut it into easily had double the meat of a standard taco filling anywhere else! Just enough spice to give it a little kick and I didn't find it overly salty which is usually an issue for me at most places. The consomme comes in a cup with a lid and a piece of lime. This was also so tasty that I ended up drinking what was left like a regular soup. My suggestion is def don't pass on a birria product and ask for an extra lime or 2, trust me! read more

The food was worth it I really loved it, anytime you want to eat stop by grab some delicious food Amazing service and food trust me read more

I wasn't impressed nor dissatisfied with my visit here. To their benefit I didn't consume their birria until one day after I purchased it so take my opinion with a grain of salt as it wasn't fresh. The birria smelled amazing but the flavor was sort of muted for lack of a better word. The chicken taco had great seasoning & tbh tbh it's one of the best & only corn tortillas I like. The food is made to order so be prepared to wait. I like the price points because everyone in your family can get something here & you'd still be well under $50 which is rare especially downtown. My hunt for holy grail tacos continues. read more

I have come here before... food has been good in previous visits. However, yesterday I received burnt food. Can't call to let them know. So by the time I seen it I was too far to go back. Not even sure if I will go back after this. Cook had to of questioned serving this. It's the pizzabirria, which is made with flour tortillas. Not a good burnt taste. read more

The Quesabirria and consome was delicious. We also got Levanton (ramen and birria) which was also very good. The guy at the food truck was very helpful with recs. Highly recommend if you are in the area. read more

He completely over charged me telling me that he couldn't get the cart out by me for family reasons and told me that it would be cheaper just to have them bring it catering style. Still over charged me. Brings me a a cup of Quacamole for 50 people and I had to warm up my own tortillas at my own party and the beans were just thrown in a tin not even mashed up just whole beans. I call him to complain and tells me that how everything comes and tells me he'll drop off a little more Quacamole but I'll probably just complain about that so whats the point. Very rude and then complained to me that he didn't even open his truck that day to complete my order which was on him because he knew he had a catering order for that day so why not have someone else open ur truck for u...ridiculous. Never again! Wouldn't recommend having food catered. read more

This more than hit the spot! The quesabirrias are so good, the crunch of the tortilla, the tender meat and the cheese are a perfect blend of deliciousness! Add some lime to the consomé and dip your quesabirria or just sip it between bites! I also tried the Taco Boom Especial which is packed with well seasoned meat, frijoles en bola, onion cilantro and a big slice of a banana pepper or Chile güero. Very tasty as well! Definitely coming back...very soon! read more

Checked out their brick and mortor location in lincoln square last night. Noticed it was BYOB so my friend and I brought a bottle of wine and chowed down. Im not a person who chooses tacos over other food choices, but im SO glad I did last night. Their quesabirria was delicious, the pizzadilla was LIT and the al pastor I LOVED! Service was super attentative and gracious. I can't wait to go back! read more

They are AMAZING!!!!!! This is going to be my regular spot because the food is fresh, taste amazing and a great value. I found this place on a whim on the way to another spot and I'm so glad I stopped, my niece doesn't even really eat tacos and can't wait to go back. The quesabirria tacos, pizza, ramen, and tostadas were all beyond what we expected. Don't hesitate to stop when you see the truck read more

Sheeeeeesh!! I've been looking for this place for a long time!! Little sister finally found it so we had to go! Ordered 2 quesabirrias w/ consome and one of their boom especials. Food came out quick hot and fresh. The boom especial is packed with arrachera and beans and their salsa sync up with perfect harmony!! Def ordering 2 on my next stop! The quesabirria is exactly what I pictured it to be in my head when I first heard of these! Served fresh off the plancha all ooey and gooey and dripping with beautiful juices from the o so tender meat that's just overwhelming your mouth with flavor and then you get that crunch oomph just brings it all together! Taco boom is def a must try!!!! read more

Food was outstanding. I would suggest bringing with you rice or some other side item, they didn't have any sides when I went. Definitely recommend read more

Boom Boom out go the Lights ! Boom Boom was on my food bucket list and I made it ! I drove by the location on 47th & Cicero on my way to the 79th & Lawndale location . It's a food truck in a parking lot . They tell me the hours at the Lawndale location are 12-8 , 7 days a week and 4-11 at the Cicero & 47th street location. I loved it , fabulous tacos / burritos from hardworking people. Does it get any better ? If I lived close by I would stop everyday . Street Tacos , marinated meat . I took a motorcycle ride and made Boom Boom Tacos my destination. Make Boom Boom your destination. I like saying Boom boom . read more
