    Was decent. I feel like this place is new and trying to gain that hipster clientele. I'm not from there but assuming this is the case. The bartender and, only can assume, one of the owners were pretty nice. I walked in and saw a sign that said philly cheese steak tacos and those are like marrying my two worlds. So wanted to try. Although not on the menu, we were advised they existed and I ordered those along with a taco named after a street in wheeling. Well, the cheese steak taco was underwhelming even though the other choice was good. Place was clean and funky decor. Liked the ease of parking on that particular night and how fast the food was. Also, the nachos to start were great.

    At first I thought this place looked cool, the bartenders were nice and greeted us- however, the food just wasn't for me. Everything is ordered at the bar which is fine so we sat at the bar and ordered a couple diet colas. The tacos are single tacos and run around $5 depending- with various toppings, concoctions etc. the menu is pretty straight forward all things considered- and I ordered an appetizer of loaded nachos. There is an option to "load them up" which adds more jalapeños and sauces so I said sure and sipped my beverage. The nachos may have looked loaded up - but the ranch sauce was almost non-existent, and even though the beef was good - there was probably only two scoops of everything on top, and all chips to the bottom. I really think places should layer their nachos so almost every chip is addressed with toppings. Again - the meat was good just wasn't a good final execution of nachos. Ordered the philly cheese steak taco and a western sizzlin taco - which were somewhat odd. The philly cheese steak taco said it had beer cheese on it but the sauce was orange??? and tasted more like stroganoff. Was not good. Plus the steak was low grade beef stroganoff style meat. The western sizzlin taco was decent enough - but again that same meat. Didn't mind the tortillas they used, just altogether meh. Staff is very friendly but on food, that friendliness couldn't carry the meal.

    Amazing tacos in a small bar format. You can't find many places that have authentic street tacos outside of Mexico. Can't beat the price. Had the pork belly and carnitas tacos. Pork belly tacos were . Carnitas were good too!

    Love what this place is doing, especially in the downtown Wheeling area, the city needs some awesome places with great food and great atmosphere, and this is one of them. They have a beer especially brewed for them, cannot remember the name, but it was pretty solid. Started off with chips and salsa (both made in-house) and I was a big fan, immediately knew the grub would be good. Went for the 3-pack Tacos Campechanos and was not disappointed - great flavor, portion size for the price. They have Karaoke and live music as well - definitely dig it, next time I am in town I will be going back.

    We came here on a Thursday at 6:30 PM and only the 2nd group of patrons. I had a couple of friends say that if you've had real tacos, you wouldn't like these. Well, it's not about "real" or "authentic" tacos at this place. This is the place to go if you want kielbasa and sauer kraut taco, or chicken parmesan on a flour tortilla, or your Thanksgiving dinner rolled up. To me, this cheapened the well-made ingredients you're being served. What was inside the tacos was delicious (with the exception of the beef and potato taco where I thought the beef was ground too fine and reminded me of the taco meat found in Lunchables), but to be honest I really really did not like it combined with the various tortillas. I'm all for some crazy tacos; I've had some very odd flavors combined with various tortillas that turned out to fabulous. I love trying weird stuff. But this just did not do it for me. The tortillas themselves were very tasty and I'd love to see more traditional tacos here, or else better blends of the "different" tacos. The Juan was my favorite, being the most traditional (except for the red sauce served on top.) The flavors of all the food were great but again did not jive well with tortillas. Also the tacos were $4 which seemed a little pricey but I guess you're getting things like chicken, kielbasa, etc. in them. If they were cheaper I might be okay with the fact that they're just "okay." I got an order of "sweet potato nuggets" for $3.50 which was an extremely disappointing order. It was a basket of sweet potato fries and was a very, very tiny order. They come in either buffalo ranch or with a sweet cinnamon yogurt sauce. We got the buffalo ranch which had buffalo sauce and since drizzled on. As far as a bar goes, there were no drink specials to draw in a crowd and no TV. Now the TV doesn't matter to me and I actually really liked that. I like going somewhere just to eat and be with friends. But as my fiancé stated, the food wouldn't bring him back and though this place has a cool vibe, he couldn't come here to watch a game with friends and wouldn't choose this bar over others. And, a TV would keep people in the bar longer. Again not a huge deal to me because I respect an establishment who would maybe rather their patrons visit with each other and not stare at another electronic device. I think this place will continue to be a big hit in the valley (I mean... it's very OV) and I urge people to try it for themselves and not just take my word for it. I'm disappointed, and probably will not return but truly would love to see this place thrive. Oh and I also think a rotating menu would help... new tacos every so often might change my mind about going back to try things.

    Great food, pleasant atmosphere. Serving local brewery ale and having music entertainment by "Ezra" make for a very nice evening.

    One of the two reasonably priced spots in wheeling. I got a taco with pickles it was good. I wish they serve garlic bread.

    Such a cool concept!! In Between Bar literally sits between two restaurants -- Fuzed…read more(Asian-American) on one side and Los Bajitos (Mexican) on the other. There are openings inside the bar that connect to both restaurants, and the menu lets you order items from either spot, which makes it perfect if your group is craving different things! We started with the bao buns, which I've had before and they are always my go-to must order. Absolutely delicious every time! The dry ramen bowl was very good and came with a generous portion of chicken. They weren't able to add the fried egg and substituted a boiled egg instead, which was a little surprising and not what I had preferred for this dish, but the dish was still flavorful and good. The Texas burrito bowl was excellent -- fresh guacamole, steak, chicken and shrimp, and really great flavor throughout. Between the unique setup, the ability to order from two different restaurants, and the solid food, this is a fun spot that's definitely worth checking out!

    I hate writing negative reviews, but people should know about our experience. I stopped at Los…read moreBajitos yesterday for a quick lunch by myself. Right from the start, things felt off. Instead of seating me, the employee pointed at a menu and told me to order. I started giving her my order, but she walked away in the middle of it and had another guy take it on a handheld device. I paid right then and there, which seemed a little odd for a sit-down restaurant, but I didn't think much of it. My chimichanga came out in what had to be three minutes or less. It was so fast that I couldn't imagine it was freshly made. Unfortunately, it tasted just as disappointing as it looked. It was incredibly bland and had an almost chemical taste to it. I kept trying another bite, hoping it would get better, but it didn't. I finally gave up after just a few bites. The restaurant itself didn't help my appetite. The silverware looked dirty, the music was blasting, and the whole place just felt grimy. While I was eating, an older couple came in to order takeout. They were told they could only place an order online. The woman looked at me and said, "I guess we can't eat here then because I don't know how to do that." I ended up bringing the rest of my meal home, and my 16-year-old son ate it. Over night, he became terribly sick with severe gastrointestinal symptoms that we believe were food poisoning. He's never experienced anything like that before. I only ate a couple of bites myself, and looking back, I'm glad I stopped when I did. After all of this, I looked up the restaurant and saw that it had received a health inspection score of 80 not long ago. I've rarely seen a score that low, and after seeing the conditions inside and what happened afterward, it made me even more concerned. Needless to say, we won't be back. This was a really disappointing experience from start to finish, and I would encourage anyone thinking about eating here to do a little homework first.
