Great food, drinks and friendly service. It's my favorite local Mexican restaurant. My family loves it as well.

The food is very good and flavorful. Everybody there is always super nice when greeting you. The place is also clean and inviting. A bit packed but no problem with that. Slightly expensive but it is worth the price. The carnitas are extremely delicious! I definitely recommend. read more

My fiancé and I ordered two tortas and two large horchatas. I got the arrachera torta and the steak was grilled to perfection! It was heaven and we both washed it down with delicious horchata. Update We ordered again and got two chimichanga Cesina and two horchatas. This is our new favorite spot in Bolingbrook for Mexican food. read more

While staying on n Bolingbrook during a volleyball tournament, daughter wanted to eat Mexican. As someone who has found birria as my new favorite Mexican dish, the quesobirria was mentioned by n the Taqueria El Valle reviews. I ordered the quesobirria tacos and they were fantastic! The taco shells were perfectly fried. The birria was just the right amount of spicy and the queso has a the perfect amount. The dipping sauce was great. Highly recommend. I also love Mexican restaurants that offer multiple salsa at the table. The red salsa with the chips has just the right amount of heat. The spicier green sauce had avocado mixed in and was a 10 on a 10 by me. Service was quick and friendly. The vibe was good energy with a busy crowd of all ages. Coca Cola in bottles. Margaritas looked great, though I didn't have one. Kind of a hole-in-the-wall at the end of a strip mall, but well worth the visit. read more

Amazing steak burrito jam packed with flavor! Reasonably priced & the service was also great. I briefly got a chance to speak to the owner who was very hospitable. I will definitely be back and you all should as well! read more

Food was delicious, I was looking for a authentic place in the area. After 6-7 places, I have found it. Drinks were great, service on point and the food was amazing. Highly recommended. read more

If you love Mexican cuisine, then you have to go to Taqueria El Valle. The food is fresh and made from scratch! And.....for those menudo lovers, El Valle makes menudo fresh and is served every day along with freshly made corn tortillas!! It is by far the best menudo in Illinois. I stop by there several times a month at lunch with my buddy for a bowl. The tacos are bursting with flavor, and the serving sizes are generous. The burritos are not overstuffed with bean and rice fillers. A perfect balance of flavors. Their menu is extensive so there is something for everyone. The owner, Jose, is the perfect and most hospitable host and when you leave, he says, "Thank you.....see you tomorrow". And often times, he DOES see me tomorrow. lol read more

Finding this place to eat was such a surprise! The food was amazing!!!! The inside is colorful and fun. Plenty of booth seating. Everyone was friendly. We had some amazing Mexican food after a long time. We got - chorizo quesadilla dinner - came with rice and beans. The quesadilla was huge, with plenty of leftovers. Everything tasted amazing! Enchiladas mineras - got the grilled chicken which was so tender, juicy and full of flavor. It also came with side of potatoes which were cooked in a red sauce. So good!! The only complaint I had was that the place could be a little cleaner. Solid food though! read more

This by far is the best Mexican restaurant in Illinois!!!! family-owned, authentic Mexican food can't get any better than that Bierria tacos burritos do you name it they have it but it's authentic and it's homemade margaritas are to die for.

I had chicken tacos the Birria way. Was food and packed with flavor. The creamy good sauce was spicy enough but it needs more seasonings salt. Atmosphere is welcoming and clean. read more

Update 12/2024. I finally tasted the keto quesobirria,it was $20. It was decent,it is filling because of the cheese,the broth tasted very strong like tomato sauce and lacked other flavors,but I'm happy that they have a keto offering for people to try. This restaurant has definitely gone up in price,but the quality of the meat is still good. read more

Ordered for pickup. Had the steak tacos and they were not up to par. Steak was dry and tortillas were harder than authentic corn tortillas. Flavor was not there either. Tacos were pricey but bigger than the normal single tacos. read more

First time visiting this taqueria. Excellent food and service in a very casual atmosphere. I had the Quesabirria taco platter and a horchata for lunch. The tacos were excellent and the accompanying consommé was rich and flavorful. As is common with this style of taco, they are incredibly hot temperature when served, so you have to be careful not to burn your fingers or mouth. But, the risk is worth it for these delicious tacos. I'm looking forward to returning to try other items on the menu. read more

Birria is amazing! Great family owned business. I will be back for more of that authentic Mexican food

OMG!!! Killer food!! Why have we waited so long to try this place!? Upon driving home I thought of grabbing some food from here. I wanted to try something new. Soooo sick of the same food everywhere. Then I remember this place. Upon coming in I was a little taken back because this is a sit down restaurant not like the to go place I imagined it to be. I didn't know what to order but looked at the menu before coming in so I pulled up their menu online. I just pointed to what we wanted. Everyone on Facebook had been freaking out about how good this one dish is- The Quesabirria Tacos!! Oh my- yummm! You gotta go try this soon! read more

Okay - WOW! My best friend moved a few blocks from here and I thank the Heavens for that. I read some incredible reviews about Taqueria El Valle and we decided to give this a shot as our first Mexican joint (we always try to find a staple together!). This is HIT! Go no where else! I live in Plainfield and I'd drive out here just to visit. I've only been twice - one carry out and one in person. The first order was a chimichanga and it was the size of a football...not only huge but DELICIOUS. Guacamole also fantastic. The in-person experience was...different. I noticed a few things that thought were strange for the staff to be doing with customers present, and our server wasn't too pleasant. For this reason, docking a star even though the food is incredible. I ordered the enchiladas and while I have a fairly high spice tolerance, the red sauce was FIRE. Like, not necessarily good fire, but painful fire. My Hispanic friend could barely handle it, either. I know, I know, heat tolerance is different from person to person, but I was surprised at how much heat this packed with no warning. I still can't wait to come back and definitely will - hopefully the service improves! read more

Ok - I know I reviewed this place 2 years ago, but just an update - still amazing! They offer a wide selection of food now and also some amazing alcoholic drinks. Service with a smile & fresh food. The gentleman who I assume is the owner always makes sure you have a good experience. This place is a gem folks & the food is just top notch. And on your way out you hear "See you tomorrow" read more

Service was great, went here based on the high rating. Unfortunately our meals did not substantiate the same rating. The chips served with the salsa were not fresh. Both Chile Relleno Burritos were served lukewarm, and just no flavor. Was so looking forward to some tasty Mexican food and let down. read more

I'm giving 5 STARS but with an honest review. This was my first time here at this restaurant. Wanted to find a new taco place to eat in Bolingbrook. The food here looks and tastes homemade! It's like if I were eating at someone's house, someone's "abuelas" home. The food was very flavorful, the tortillas looked handmade. The salsa was balanced and flavorful. Unfortunately, I had to spend my time fending off flies while I waited for my meal. The service was okay, but can be better. In my personal opinion, This place has the potential to be more, to be better, even great. The food is delicious, I want to come back, I want to recommend this place to others, but I won't till the "flies" are addressed. read more

The best! I love the food from there every single plate it reminds me of Mexico! It has a really good taste and the prices are reasonable, the service is perfect. I'm always there every weekend I'm in love with the birria de chivo and the papa of cecina! Totally the best won't disappoint Julio is a really nice guy and really friendly I'll definitely keep coming! read more

Great food, great service, and nice ambiance what more can be said had a really pleasant and great time and have never had issues with the establishment and food has always been wonderful! read more

I was excited to see they had quesabirria so of course I had to order it. I tried the quesabirria plate and tacos with rice and beans. The quesabirria tacos looked great, but I thought the flavor was bland. The meat was tender, but the consomme was not very flavorful, maybe it was watered down. I've had some very tasty quesabirria consomme, but this one just tasted slightly better than beef broth. The tacos were ok, a bit dry. I won't be back. read more

We (wife, son, and I) were all quite impressed by the food here on Monday. Live within a mile (for 18 years), but never knew of this place until some co-workers spoke highly of it just recently. Wife was at home, feeling under the weather, so my son and I stopped here to get her some chicken soup (always something magical about Mexican chicken soup, and it worked; she's feeling much better today). Son and I both grabbed a taco (we already had dinner plans, but wanted to try something as long as we were there). VERY YUMMY. Came back again on Tuesday, and then again on Wednesday just to try more tacos (many varieties to choose from). Every one were excellent (though the wait is very long; I guess it's all made to order, not ahead of time like the fast food places, and the wait is worth it). But maybe will try calling ahead in the future instead of waiting so long time. read more

We wanted to love this food, and expected more due to reviews. Our taco dinners were just meh, and very expensive actually for what you get. Probably won't be back. They don't have the pickled jalapeños and veggies either. read more
