    Breakfast tacos
    Craig L.

    Absolutely fantastic tacos. If this place was in Cleveland....it would easily be more popular than Barrio. I've stayed at the hotel attached several times and this is always reliable late night eat. The menu has actually expanded w walking zombie taco. I wish I took a pic of the menu but if you are in the area I highly recommend stopping by. They also have tall boy beers to buy. Nachos w pulled pork were pretty great. Food comes out fast and hot. Snag your food and eat right in the hotel lobby which is more of a bar than a typical hotel lobby. If you've stayed at the Moxy Chicago you'll know what I mean. I'll be back Moxy and Z Taco....ill be back

    A small place located inside the Moxy hotel. You can order from inside or outside of the hotel. There are kiosks to place your order. There are a couple of small tables to sit at outside. We ordered nachos. They were very good. Prices are a bit higher, but it's because of the location. Service was quick. I would go there again if I am staying in the hotel.

    We came here for some nacho in a bag which was good and the fries didn't look like the one on the menu. We ate inside the Moxy Hotel which was nice, you can even order drinks at the bar and food as well at the bar as well. Being that this was inside a hotel, there's also a window outside you can order and sit outside to eat as well. The food was alright not typical Mexican foods.

    While staying at the Moxy hotel we got a late night burrito, & tortilla chips with sides of guacamole, salsa, & cheese- it was excellent!

    There's really no setting to speak of, since it's part of the hotel. So you eat in the hotel lobby, there's enough seats and tables though. There's no servers either, you go to the counter and order your food. The food is a bit overpriced, but you're in a hotel in downtown Chicago, so take that into account. However, the food wasn't very good either. I ordered nachos, which tasted mediocre. The tacos were ok. If you're staying in the hotel and you need quick food, it's enough. That said, I wouldn't go back since there's better choices out there.

    Thick Cut Jalapeño Bacon Taco, Street Corn - IG @bougiefoodieboi

    I went here to try their signature taco, the jalapeño bacon taco, and I used the yelp check on offer for a free side of street corn. The bacon taco is good but didn't have the texture or substance of a thick bacon, but the other ingredients meshed together produced a delicious taco. However, for $7, I expected more than what I see as the 1 taco does look kind of sad for the price. The street corn is hearty with cotija and other ingredients, but it was not too saucy so I got to enjoy the entire bowl without feeling too bloated. At $7, this was a decent price. This is conveniently located at the Moxy so I guess you pay for convenience, but there is a good amount of Mexican food around River North area at various price points if you want to venture further.

    Heard about the Thick-Cut Jalapeno Bacon taco here but it was disappointing. While the bacon itself wasn't that bad, the rest of the ingredients were pretty bland/there wasn't much other flavor (sans the taste of thick cut bacon). I did not taste jalapeño or even pico de gallo. It was more like regular tomato, and then the lettuce, avocado and ranch. Got the taco to-go and unfortunately when I ate it 10 mins later, the wrapping made the flour tortilla soggy and it fell apart pretty quickly. And not even visually appealing--it looked like a very sad taco (see pic). Overpriced for what it was. The decor in the Moxy, where Zombie Taco is located, was very cute for the holidays though.

    Their tacos get cold extremely fast because of the nature of the ingredients.. one second the taco was warm, and then all of the sudden it was freezing cold, all in the matter of just a few minutes. The brisket was gross... the fish was mid, and the only highlight I would say was the ambiance and the bacon jalapeño taco. I would literally just go back for that taco, nothing else. It is overpriced and probably not even better than Velvet Taco... Zombie Taco is located within Moxy Hotel, and their bar and the surrounding seating areas is a fun place to chat.. not too loud and good atmosphere. If you are looking for a place with average food but good vibes, then sure. But if you were looking for great food and don't even like bacon, then definitely look elsewhere because I would not get anything other than the bacon taco.

    Love that this place was inside the hotel we stayed at (The Moxy). They were open pretty late which was nice. The only thing I got to try from them was their nachos and they were delicious!

    This was our first stop on our recent trip to Chicago and we were so pleasantly surprised! Considering they're open late, we didn't really expect much from Zombie Taco. It is located inside the Moxy Hotel Lobby, which made it such a vibe! There was a bar, games, and great music! We ordered and quickly got our food. Make sure to check-in on a yelp to get a great freebie! Absolutely loved our food! The nachos were pretty good and the portion was huge! I got the Zombie Burrito and it was so good! Also a huge portion which I was not expecting. Overall, such a hidden gem! Would definitely recommend!

    acos were good here. My favorite was the street corn which had a nice amount of lime & perfect amount of cheese. The Bbq chicken taco was also good, you will need more than one The team here were so understanding they made the street corn mild as requested Gracias por la comida

    Thick Cut Jalapeño Bacon Taco
    Quintessa D.

    I tried the brisket (2/5), the bacon taco (4/5), chips with 3 dips (4/5), and bacon cheese fries (3/5). The bacon taco was really good. It was really flavorful! However, the brisket taco was very dry and lacked flavor. The chips were freshly fried and the guacamole was the best out of the three dips. The French fries were just okay. They did what they needed to do but I wouldn't go back for them.

    Burrito ala deabla, con shrimp. Highly recommend. In general the tacos are delicious…read more Environment is great and working personal are super nice. Been a customer for over years now. Bar inside which is a plus. Bathrooms are always clean. Five star all around and a must check out!! Dine in or sit outside

    My first time here, and it was such a great experience. Delicious food and a really fun vibe!…read more We walked in around 12:30pm Saturday, and even though the place was pretty packed, we were seated right away! I ordered the Paloma, and my husband got the Michelada, both super refreshing and made well. For food, I ordered the El Gringo with rice and salad. I definitely wish I had swapped the salad for beans, because my husband got both rice and beans, and I ended up finishing my rice and helping with his too lol. Highly recommend this dish, just go for the beans instead of the salad! My husband also ordered three tacos: Al Pastor, Chorizo, and Carne Asada, all of which were really good. One of the fun touches is that they have QR codes at the table to leave a Google review, and if you do, you get to spin a prize wheel. Of course I had to try it, and it made the whole experience even more fun. I ended up winning a free double shot! The staff were all super friendly, the restaurant was clean, and the music gave it a fun, vibrant atmosphere. I'd definitely come back!
