I LOVE this place! I've been coming here for years and everything's delicious. I've had their nachos, their wings, the Skinny Salad, and many other things. Their tacos are DELICIOUS! Tonight I'm having a chicken chimichanga. It's scrumptious! read more

BTOS Kitchen - Chicken chimichanga - Mexican Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

I loooove BTOS. My friends and I have been coming here for years. I would definitely warn you that they can get busy, and it seems like they usually operate with a small staff. You might have to wait a while for your orders, but it is worth it. Their back patio is so nice and cozy. My friends and I will always sit out there when we can. They make THE BEST margarita. I love that you can get them with fresh fruit, and I always opt for mango. The food always hits. I tried the quesabirria tacos this time, and they were unbelievably delicious. I've never had a bad meal here. Everything is so delicious, and it seems to be very authentic as well! If you come here, have some patience, and you will have a great time! read more

This is my new favorite local Mexican place (most authentic in the area - IMO) and I've been here 2x in the past month. First time with a friend at the bar with margarita, chips and street tacos then second time on patio with my son - had Diablo shrimp with rice and beans, chips and salsa, margarita; son had churros and enchiladas. We both loved it & absolutely adore the atmosphere on the patio, such a chill spot and generally great service. Usually no issues with finding nearby parking, meters also only enforced til 6pm. Reasonably priced menu as well. read more

First upon walking in the restaurant was quaint and small but pretty well managed. The server was friendly and attentive as well. The food at this restaurant was pretty decent. The chicken had a decent flavor and depending on the item from the menu you got a great portion size. The soups are a huge portion and really good tasting as well. I got the chicken fajitas this is where I said the chicken tastes really good but the portions aren't that big. I also got a pineapple strawberry margarita. It was so good and they put fresh fruit in it as well! So yummy and worth the price! read more

Fried ice-cream was AMAZING!! Service was a little slow but food was worth it. We'd go back again. read more

Very, very good Mexican spot. Everything I had from this place was very tasty. I wanted to try quite a variety of items from this spot, including the quesadilla, platanos Fritos, and the tres leches. Every single thing I had was very good. To start, the main meal, the quesadilla, was quite filling. They served it with complimentary rice. The rice was surprisingly flavorful, and had a great soft texture. The quesadilla itself was also quite good, filled with a nice amount of cheese. Simple but tasty. The platanos Fritos were also excellent. The plantains themselves were sweet and soft. Almost worthy of being a dessert. The cheese they had on top was a bit unnecessary in my opinion, as it was stringy and tasted a bit like plastic. But still, very good overall. The tres leches was an excellent dessert to end off the night. So creamy, fluffy, and perfectly sweet. They definitely do not hold back on the whipped cream here (which was a tad excessive). All in all, a very nice Mexican spot. I would definitely come again. Enjoyed everything I had. read more

Very quick for takeout and on street metered parking right in front. The skinny salad was tasty but didn't have Mexican flavors. I like the egg. However the egg and dressing leaked from the takeout container onto the tortilla chips below making them soggy by the time I got home. The guac was good and could have used more flavor. All of the food was fresh. read more

Really wish I could give zero stars. Two days ago I ordered food from BTOS Kitchen before they opened. My order was canceled by GrubHub because BTOS failed to confirm the order. Okay, maybe BTOS needs more than a few hours to do their job. So I ordered food yesterday afternoon to be delivered today. Once again, 25 minutes before my delivery time, BTOS failed to confirm the order and therefore my order was canceled. This isn't a hard job. If you're going to take online orders, do so. If it's too much hassle for you, just do phone and walk-in orders. If anyone askes me about BTOS Kitchen I'm going to advise them to stay the hell away and go with someone reputable. Hell, even the local Taco Bell does a better job. read more

A wonderful local Mexican restaurant! They have a spacious indoor room and bar, but I highly recommend their patio. The tables are covered so you won't get too hot and it's very peaceful. The service is great with coming to your table right away for drinks and giving you enough time to review the menu. There are so many delicious options to choose from! I ended up going with the Arrachera BTOS-K tacos. The tacos came with fresh cilantro, onion, and lime; with a very flavorful avocado salsa drizzled on top. The grilled flank steak was a bit chewy in some bites, but overall delicious. I also got rice as a side and it was seasoned nicely and not boring like typical white rice. I was still a bit hungry after my 2 tacos, but happy with my order, I'd just recommend getting 3. Looking forward to coming back to try more of their food! read more

Just left the restaurant. Worst eating experience in 2025. The service was absolutely horrendous despite the fact that there was only one other customer in the restaurant at 7 o'clock on a Saturday evening. Ordered the fajitas, which came out on the plate cold with no sauces or accompaniments. whatsoever. I asked for sour cream and guacamole to go with my fajitas and they charge me an additional seven dollars. I wouldn't go back here if the meal was free. read more

First time here and this place is a gem! It doesn't look like much on the outside and I have driven past it so many times! The street tacos were so good, the chorizo and Barbacoa were my favs. I can't wait to go back and try more on the menu! read more

Not very good. Burrito shell wasdry and tough to cut, and the cuerco al pastor filling was skimpy, mostly black beans and rice. It came out cold from the kitchen When I sent it back the waiter returned it in the same condition. My fountain diet coke was bad too. read more

We had a disappointing experience ordering from BTOS Kitchen via Grubhub. The food was delivered without side dishes (Mexican corn, side of beans, etc.). Instead, the dishes included a CUCUMBER on the side (???) so we were all still hungry after our meal. There was no horchata available. We ordered a "bottle of Coke" and received a can of Coke and charged over $3. We were thinking that the best case scenario would be a Mexican Coke in a glass bottle or perhaps a plastic bottle of Coke, mainly just disappointed about receiving less food than advertised. The food itself seemed a bit bland and under-seasoned. Sadly, I would have preferred Taco Bell or Chipotle over this restaurant. Frankly I'm surprised about all the positive reviews. I do want to say that my 7-year-old son enjoyed his cheese quesadilla with plain rice and he gave this restaurant a 5-star review. However, the 3 other adults would not recommend this restaurant and would give it a 2-star review. read more

Y'ALL.LIED (& so did their website) :/ Margaritas started at $3, MORE, than their website says. I got their wings. Partly out of spite bc I had picked and driven to them, wanting to try one of their, reasonably priced, "dangerously good margaritas", but at 2-3x what I can get, elsewhere, I didn't. And, after getting these, dried out, SKIMP, greasy, odd tasting wings, I'm GLAD I DIDN'T. I work in the food industry (and a passionate cook/foodie, myself) HOW are you going to serve someone, THIS!?! SMH ONLY customer and she was in the kitchen/back (I was at the bar), most of the time. OH, and no tap beers, either. read more

Food is fire. Probably the worst service in the city. They're so nice! Just so inattentive. They'll snatch your menus away as soon as you order a guac. Only took off one star bc I want this place to do well, the food and margs are so good!! We even got surprise live music tonight! Offer me another drink please! Take my money! I'm thirsty!! Leave the food menu I will buy moreeee read more

YES. YES. YES. This hands down is the best Mexican food in Pittsburgh! First off, the margarita was perfect! Literally they hand squeezed fresh lime and lemon. No concentrated mix! I've never had a marg that good before! Secondly, the tacos. Ahh the tacos. So good. Such fresh ingredients. And the corn tortillas were amazing. The Al Pastor were soooo good, and the chorizo Street tacos were awesome! I just can't get over how authentic this place is. It's the real deal. RUN, don't walk to try this place. I'll be back for sure! read more

I love this place. The servers are very friendly and don't rush you when you're having a relaxing night out. They make fabulous hand blended margaritas. The best. The BEST. I've been coming here for years. Their tacos are delicious and their nachos can't be beat. I've never had anything here I didn't enjoy. read more

Food was absolutely average at best. Chips and queso have sero flavor and queso came out quite cold and the chips a bit stale and just zero flavor at all. Margaritas were made fresh, however they also had no flavor and was not good by any means. Used fresh ingredients but was not good. Tacos were bite sized and Burritos had no flavor and were not very tasty. I 1000% couldve made better food at home and saved myself the trouble. Very disappointed to say the least This place has no flavor, not the best customer service. I would advise you to go somewhere else for mexican food, this place is NOT IT! read more

We love BTOS kitchen. They have great food and drinks, and Ima great patio. We love getting a michelada on a hot day, so tasty.

MMMmm! The BEST Mexican food in Pittsburgh! Great menu, full of authentic tasty options. They have cactus, mole, elote, huitlacoche, and churros!!! Can't wait to try more from their menu. Nice patio in the back, and a playlist that makes you feel like you're in Mexico. Service is very good too. read more

BTOS Kitchen - Frozen strawberry margaritas - Mexican Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

This place is hands down the best Mexican in the South Hills. The margaritas are the best I have ever had. Service was great. Welcoming and an amazing mariachi singer. The flank steak tacos are so delicious. It is like the middle child of Totopo and Las Palmas (both of which I also love and recommend) with its ambiance and openness. I don't do reviews. This place earns it. read more

Service was efficient and friendly. The margaritas were served with an orange wedge that was tasty. We ordered chips and a dip trio that was disappointing. The chips were stale, even on the refill and the queso lacked flavor. The bean dip w chorizo lacked chorizo. The taco special with seasoned chicken was good, but served cold. It would taste even better if heated when making the tacos. read more

Enchiladas mole not good My friend got Mahi tacos and they were overcooked and dry Not the best experience read more

Been here a few times and the food isn't consistent. The meat is overcooked and rubbery and the drinks are extremely expensive. If I want overcooked meat I might as well just make it myself at home and save my money. The waitress acts like she doesn't want to be there and not friendly. read more

This is my favorite margarita joint. They muddle their fruit and it is so refreshing you won't notice how fast you drink it. The food is tasty and I haven't had anything I didn't like though the service leaves something to be desired. We have gone her many times where you don't get everything you ordered or it comes by the time everyone else has finished their dinner. It has a loud and fun energy that keeps us coming back. read more

Ordered pickup from Grubhub. Two tacos, three tacos, and a quesadilla and two sides. Didn't get third taco, and tacos were soggy. I live less than 10 minutes away so it's kinda crazy they were soggy. Average at best. Quesadilla was good. Missing two sides. Terrible business practice to not get what you paid for. Business owner is a pathetic POS, as this appears to be something that is a frequent occurrence based on reviews through Grubhub. I will never order from here again. My suggestion would be Totopo down the street or El Burro in the city if you want Mexican. Don't give an establishment that scams people out of money your business. read more

Had a great time here , very good food and the service is above and beyond !! I just wish chips and salsa was complimentary

Had heard that the tacos were good so had to stop by and get a takeout. Ordered the Street Tacos that are 4 tacos for $10. The tacos come on homemade tortillas that we were able to watch being made as we waited for our order. Our order was a mix of the fillings including chorizo, carnitas and barbacoa. The Street tacos were delicious and came with two salsas (VERDE and Rojo) and a few pickled cucumber slices. All were really good and loved the chorizo. Can't wait for our next Taco Tuesday. read more

Food was amazing! It was not packed for lunch so we had great quick service. Really friendly waitresses that were polite. They had authentic music playing that really lifted the vibe. I had a chorizo burrito and my gf had a skinny salad. Can't wait to come back! Soooo yummy read more

Literally one of the best Mexican restaurants I have ever been to. The house maragitas are times with a spicy salt and made with fresh juices. The tortillas are made to order and everything comes out hot and fresh. I had the tacos with elote. Yum! They do have outdoor dining as well. The patio is out back and cute and quiet read more

Called and placed a take out order, was told to come in 30 minutes. Arrive at restaurant and no one had placed my order. Staff then proceeds to charge me full price and tell me I have to wait an additional 20 minutes before my food will be ready. Ask for a manager, no one said they were a manager. Do not order food from here! Edit: upon arriving home, enchiladas had no sauce in them! I called them back and they said I could come back for a cup of sauce. Go to Taco Diablo or Emilianos. read more

Been wanting some authentic Mexican food & word on the street was this was the place. stepped in on an early Saturday for dinner. Walked in & went to at least 3 tables and they were dirty. Waitress comes over & we order margaritas. I will tell you they were really good. Time to order some guac, salsa and chorizo dip but they tell us they have no chips??? What, no chips at a Mexican restaurant. We decided to just finish or good margaritas and leave. Maybe we will go back someday.... read more

The best most authentic Mexican food in the south hills!! Service can be slow but it's only because they are making everything from scratch down to the margarita Juice. Highly recommend!! read more

Very nice place. Ambiance is relaxing, and the music is uplifting Hispanic modern hip hop. Service was good, a little slow, but the food made up for the wait time. It was delicious, very authentic Mexican food. Must try the street corn! My favorite side dish to date! read more

La comida fue perfecto !!! My friend was raving about this place. When someone recommends the foodie queen a restaurant, the thought doesn't leave my mind until I go. So I finally made it to BTOS with the friend that recommended it and oh my gosh is this place underrated. You know it's authentic when the margaritas are big and when they don't offer you soft shells... just the way I like it! I always said it's hard to find authentic Mexican food in PA, but I sure found it. My friend got the Mahi Mahi tacos & I got the spicy chicken so we traded and had one of each. They were both so good (especially because the guac wasn't extra), but I must admit the Mahi Mahi was my favorite. Paired with the side of corn & freshly squeezed lime... MMM. Already craving this again. My gluten free & vegan lovers would also enjoy this place. Muchas gracias read more

Very good, fresh food. Very reasonably priced! Just found it today on my lunch break. Nice friendly staff

The is some of the best Mexican food I have had in America. The service is awesome. The food is amazing. The margaritas are delicious. It is a must try if you are in Pittsburgh read more

This is my favorite Mexican restaurant in the south hills. Quality ingredients and amazing flavor. It's obvious BTOS prioritizes the food more than anything and it speaks in the dishes that come out of the kitchen. Takeout is ready in 10 minutes and just as tasty as if you were sitting in. Highly recommend! read more

The food is amazing-I recommend the steak tacos. Having lived in Los Angeles, as close as you get With this said, I live in the neighborhood and do not speak Spanish, although I try to be gracious. I tip well, compliment and still feel... I would love to take a few friends, just do not have the vibe we would "fit". Not saying I would not go back, crave the food - if there is not one word of English, I am ok with that - just let me know to pull out my translator and don't make me feel bad Probably would have gone tonight and then took a look at the reviews Again - Awesome food read more

Great food, atmosphere and 80's music track. Seems to be family run in a very enjoyable way. I'm here from CA so really!!!!!! missing good Mexican food. This place was awesome. Good mix of Pitt grunge and great Mexican food. I'll be back soon. read more
