My husband and I dined in and he got two Al pastor tacos, torta birria with consume, I got a three steak taco dinner with rice and beans, we also got two bottled drinks, Coca Cola and Sangria, drinks taste better in a bottle. The food hit the spot it was delicious and well presented! I love the fact they had a good selection of sauces, 4 bottles to be exact! They also sell their salsas in jars. I just wish they had the old school agua fresca machines. They had horchata but I think it was bottled. The service was excellent and the ambiance was nice. It was well lit and the tables were eye catching. This definitely hit the spot last night. read more

Our experience this visit was not the same as it was a few years ago. It has been almost three years since our last visit. From what I remember about our last visit and this one, this was not up to the standard of last time. The tacos were on the small side and the meat was spare. The carnitas, which were tasty and crisp last time, were bland and not crisp. The Al Pastor was good as was the quesabirria. I was surprised to be charged for chips and salsa, which is standard in most Mexican restaurants. Perhaps this was just a bad day? read more

Great food in a clean, bright space. Al pastor was lean and crispy, and the tortas are delicious and a perfect size. The salsas are great as well. We have been twice and will definitely be back! read more

ordered a chicken torta from Tacos Jerez Rolling meadows location via DoorDash today at 5:00 PM. When I received it, the chicken was raw and undercooked in the center. I ate half of it before realizing it was unsafe. Since then, I have been feeling nauseous. This is a serious food safety issue. read more

I'm writing to you today as a really big fan of your place. I've been a loyal customer for years now seriously, years. Your food and service have always been top notch, truly five star in my book. I even recommend you to everyone I know, especially the parents from both my son's baseball teams since we're always in the area at practice.I actually feel a bit bad that it took a less than perfect visit for me to finally write a review, and this one's just three stars. I stopped by last Thursday, and I have to say, things felt quite different from what I've come to expect. I was a bit bummed about the aguas frescas. I really missed the old horchata and especially the delicious strawberry and horchata mix you used to have from the machines. They always tasted so fresh. The bottled ones just don't quite hit the same spot, and the flavor wasn't what I remembered. I grabbed what I think was a mango or pineapple agua, but it really wasn't good at all. I didn't say anything at the time, but it was noticeable. Then, there were a few things with the food. The nopal gordita I ordered was sliced completely in half, almost like two tortillas, which was odd because I always thought gorditas were supposed to be stuffed. The salsas also seemed to be missing that familiar kick they really needed some salt. And speaking of new changes, I was surprised to see that chips and salsa are now charged separately. That was a bit of a shock. My burrito de tripas and chicharrón mostly had chicharrón, with only about three tiny pieces of tripas, which was disappointing considering what I paid for it. The asada burrito was good overall, but the meat itself seemed to lack seasoning, which was unusual. Maybe it was just an off day for my taste buds. On the bright side, while the cashier didn't seem particularly cheerful that day, the lady who brought our food and drinks to the table was absolutely wonderful super friendly and had a fantastic attitude! She really made an effort. Even with this visit, I genuinely want to come back. I know how amazing your food usually is, and I don't want this one experience to overshadow all the great meals I've had over the years. I'm hoping things were just a little out of sync that day. read more

I used to go to this place at least once a week and I've noticed the quality of the meat and seasoning have gone down significantly in the last year. I normally order the steak and today I got a torta that looked like ground beef pieces... I even ordered extra meat! It was salty, I couldn't finish it. read more

Delicious, authentic Mexican food! I've ordered takeout from here and have also eaten in the restaurant. It has a nice atmosphere with cute Mexican decor. Service is always good and actually pretty fast! Their salsas and sauces are very tasty, and I particularly like their chicken and al pastor tacos. The taco de rajas with roasted poblano peppers is good too! Overall, I would definitely recommend stopping in and I will continue to order from here! read more

The food was amazing. The service was fast. And the cashier was wonderful when I had questions. I ordered the quesadilla and added onions and peppers. The green sauce is wonderful I added to everything. I ordered to go and my order came quickly even during peak lunch hours. The music was lively and it set the mood. I will definitely be back. read more

Love this place. A friend of mine took me here a while ago and I love it. Food is so savory and fresh. Food is always consistent. Love all the different salsas. You can purchase jars to take home. If you're looking for a satisfying meal, this place doesn't miss. read more

We've ordered pickup from here quite a few times and it's always delicious and on time. Their guac is enough for two people. Their horchata isn't too sweet, just right. This is our spot when we crave some Mexican food near our job! read more

This place is a hidden gem! There are so many places you can get tacos but nothing like a smaller authentic Mexican restaurant that just gets all of the flavors, quality, and atmosphere just right! From the moment we walked in we were greeted with the amazing scents of the food cooking just a few feet away, and the traditional Mexican cantina music! So fun! As we walked to the cashier to order our food we had questions on the menu and she made recommendations based on our questions and by getting to know us a bit. It made us feel more comfortable knowing that what we were ordering was what we wanted. We then took a seat and we're brought chips and salsa (which to people who don't handle spice like me, may think it's a bit spicy!) and our drinks came out shortly after that. As our torta and tacos came out - they were piping how and you can just taste the flavors in every bite! If you're looking to have authentic Mexican food, and a fun atmosphere to dine in - look no further! read more

I eaten at Taco Jerez since they opened. I've noticed since that the owner counts the chips you get in an order. They used to give you a cup of salsa, no more. Now you get a condiment bottle. For prices they charge for food and serving size they should give you a lot more. It's almost like paying for parking downtown Chicago except you don't get what you pay for. There are plenty of really good Mexican restaurants nearby. They're not the only game in town . I'm done with this place especially in this day and age. I want more bang for my buck and this place just isn't it anymore. Any depending on what day and time you go there the way the staff treats you differs greatly. read more

Wish you can have more food for the price. Torta I feel need to be bigger then the size it now. Service is good and always seem in good spirits read more

I haven't had Mexican food hit the spot in a minute. This place does it for me! I'm addicted and want to try more menu items. They get super busy too. Thats how you know its good. Fast counter service to order and they'll bring the food to you. Try the quesabirria tacos, churros, and fries. They also have other meats such as lengua, tripe, and beef head. They also carry alcohol there, tequila seltzers, and cerveza. Avg bill will run you $10-$15 depending on what your into. read more

First time at Taco Jerez tonight, and wow... I ordered three pastor (marinated pork) tacos with cilantro and onions and, I gotta tell ya, I was stuffed! These tacos were LOADED with meat. It was pretty tender and tasty, and the green salsa was very creamy with a nice kick to it. If I could give it a 4.5 stars, I probably would have. Will definitely be back! read more

Stopped at Taco Jerez on a drive from Chicago to Minneapolis. What a great little spot. Super clean and bright inside, and the staff were really friendly. Classic traditional Mexican place. My son and I both ordered a three taco dinner that came with rice and beans. We got a side of guacamole as well, which came with chips. Service was fast and the food was delicious. Asada and pastor tacos were great, and the guac was nice and chunky. The best thing was they gave you 4 different kinds of salsa to try with your tacos. I highly recommend a stop here rather than one of the numerous close by chain fast food joints. You won't be disappointed. read more

YUMMMMMM, omg this place guys!! Thank goodness a new authentic Mexican taqueria opened up right by my house. I tried birria tacos for the first time at this place - they did NOT disappoint!! Soooo yummy, and everything was well priced. If you dine in, you get complementary chips and salsa which were very tasty. How it works is you order up at the front and then they give you a number. You can sit wherever you want and leave the number on your table - they'll come to you and drop off your food when it's ready. It's identical to how it works at Noodles and Company, and Panera. The food here was amazing and all the employees were super nice. This place needs more recognition!! Will definitely be back read more

Third time here, have tried the birria tacos and then carnival, asada, and lengua tacos the 1st two times. Tonight was the chilaquiles with pollo, sunny side up eggs and red and green salsa. Fantastic each time! Great flavor to the proteins and salsas. Definitely a go-to in the area. read more

Second time here. I had the California burrito with steak and it was pretty tasty. My wife had the taco dinner...two steak and one chicken. She said the tacos were good but she likes shredded chicken not cubed. I enjoy cubed chicken instead of shredded. She did like the rice but wished the beans were better. The sauces we received were ok. I will be back and am excited to try the nachos since the menu says they use actual nacho cheese! Nachos with chicken, no lettuce no tomato please. read more

This place is great. The staff is always super friendly whenever I come in. I love the interior. I have had most of their tacos and they are all delicious. I highly recommend their quesoburria tacos for something different. read more

Absolutely delightful! Delicious and fresh food, great prices ($1.99 tacos on tues/thurs!!!), quick and kind staff. We even were offered free guac that was left over--got a full container! read more

Solid taqueria. We had Al pastor burrito and a taco dinner. Good chips and really flavorful meats. I'd rank pastor top, barbacoa next. Both were very good. I look forward to going back for more. Fair price for the portion. The burrito was ample for dinner. Tasty salsas as well. read more

We have driven past this place on multiple occasions and probably would not have thought to try it , if it was not for fellow yelpers. My husband had the carne asada and shrimp tacos and I had the taco salad. On a Friday evening, the small, but quaint restaurant was packed with only a few tables open for seating. The food was authentic and the quality and taste was on point. The cashier was very helpful and when I asked if they had any salad options, since I did not see any on the menu, she immediately gave me options. There were many nice touches, the decor, the wait service and the entire atmosphere. They provided chips with salsa and with our food a variety of three toppings. The tacos had lots of meat and toppings. Our food was right off the griddle, so it was piping hot. Service was very good and the entire experience was authentic. This was a pleasant surprise ! read more

Our second time dining here . Ordered online and added and subtracted ingredients from each item. Not too hard just like no beans or tomato! Extra cheese was 25cents which is not bad ! Overall for 3 people we spent $65 without a tip. Two quesadillas, 1 burrito and 2 tacos and one piece of cake . Food was just ok , slightly cold food. I don't see us going back for that kind of pricing. We try to eat local! read more

The service was horrible. My brother in law just asked for a fork, and the lady told him to wait. That's understandable, but that shouldn't take longer than 4 minutes for a fork. The coworker overheard him asking for that. Then they made eye contact, and she still didn't give him the cutlery. Horrible service!!!! Don't come here if you want to be ignored. read more

Don't let the outside fool you into thinking this is a typical taco place. I came in on a taco Tuesday and had a wonderful experience. I enjoyed the chips and salsa while enjoying my Mexican coke. Then I had the Lengua (tong) burrito which I combined with red and green salsa. Finishing with the always popular flan, although it didn't hit the spot on flavor overall a good experience. read more

With all the selections of Latino/Mexican/Hispanic food just in this Arlington Heights/Rolling Meadows triangular regional area of Golf/Algonquin/New Wilke Rds, Taco Jerez has become the families go to patronize. One definitely gets good amount of food per order. Flavor wise whatever has been order is on point and beyond. Just wish they did chimichangas which is my co-favorite along with chile rellenos(which they do offer). read more

I love the food here. Truly , authentic Mexican cuisine. Everything is fresh. The restaurant is always clean and colorful. I would recommend to everyone to try it. read more

Just tried the mega breakfast burritos with steak. Very good, nice balance of freshly cooked peppers, onions, crispy hash brown and steak. They offer several heat levels of salsa too. The restaurant is clean and decorated with a Mexican theme. Traditional drinks are available in the coolers to take with. I liked that they cooked to order, you can't beat fresh and the service was very pleasant as well. read more

Phenomenal, very authentic tasting. Each of us got the taco combos, with generous portions and drinks in bottles. The steak was a 10/10. Vibes were great and the service was remarkably fast and pleasant considering how good the food is. New fave spot! Great hours! read more

All I can say is they're super cheap in here and I don't mean the prices When you sit in a Mexican Resturant you get chips The chips might serve one person here it's not a basket even it's a little white paper thingy but that's all you're getting even if there's more than one person Gotta pay if you want more For ordering at a counter the prices are just way over priced They need to smile a little But yes when it cost almost $70 bucks to eat you should get chips without someone saying do you want chips with your guacamole or just the chips we give read more

The food had a very delightful and enjoying taste. The service was really good and our food came fast. This place was amazing and I recommend it. read more

There is no better tacos , burritos and now Quesabirria .. literally incredible. The burritos are so stuffed , they don't skim on anything the Quesabirria is truly the best around , the pricing is reasonable. I highly highly recommend this restaurant! You will not be disappointed! read more

When I go inside to order and eat the food is great but EVERY TIME I ORDER ON UBER EATS OR DOOR DASH THE ORDER IS MESSED UP. no sauce or never extra sauce when asked for. burrito cooked poorly. just opening the meal it was carelessly put together. pay 100+ for an order and there's no damn sauce read more

Brand new place that inhabits the space previously occupied by Gabutto Burger, so naturally we had to check it out. What a time to start a new business! Here's hoping they thrive. The interior still felt familiar, but Taco Jerez has already managed to give it their own personalized touch as well. The staff couldn't be friendlier, and they made sure we felt welcome and properly introduced to the new restaurant. The husband ordered 3 tacos: al pastor, carne asada, and chorizo. I ordered only two: carne asada and barbacoa. I thought the carne asada was quite good, with a pleasant grilled flavor. The barbacoa was not my fav - that one generally tends to be hit or miss for me at various taco places, and here it seemed kind of... gamey, maybe? Not bad, but again, not my favorite. My husband liked his carne asada as well, thought the al pastor was pretty good (but not the best in the area), and LOVED his chorizo. Containers of green and red salsa and a few small slices of lime were included in the bag. Neither salsa was very spicy, but the green one was definitely the spicier of the two. We also got a couple of drinks, namely the horchata and the cantaloupe agua fresca. We furthermore sampled the pineapple agua fresca. All of the drinks that we tried were good, so I don't think you can go wrong there. The only little problem was that we ordered chips and guacamole, but once we got home we realized we didn't get them. After doing some math, we figured we hadn't been charged for them, so I guess we'll just have to try them the next time. We noticed that Taco Jerez offers a pretty good Taco Tuesday deal that includes 3 tacos and a drink, so that is something to keep in mind! In any case, we will be sure to come back and try them again. read more

I love their Queso birria tacos with consome it's one of the best I've ever had so far! It's around $17 total for 3 of these small tacos though. read more

It is a great restaurant and good food. My son was not overly fond of the California style burrito but the other burritos were fantastic.
