Buenos Dias was actually good. I did takeout and it was good! So there's that. My biggest issue is it's a bit pricey for the area, IMO. I ordered the ground beef taco dinner. It comes with beans and rice. But I asked for one Mexican and two American-style. For the American style, they seemed to charge me for each ingredient separately, which even the counter worker said was odd. It made the price like $20 for the dinner. Thankfully, she went to the back without me having to ask, and talked with the store owner. They agreed to not charge everything separately. That took me back down to about $15 Still a bit pricey for the area, but I was hungry! Haha! So thanks to the register girl for the good service! read more

Checked out this unassuming Mexican restaurant in Itasca. It only has a few tables. Buenos Dias Burritos of course specializes in one item and these are kickass. Quite big ones. The prices are great for the quality and quantity. Basic looking place in a strip mall that itself looks pretty crappy. It's got a counter to order at because most people get it to go. They have a big ass salsa bar so we wanted to stay to try all these. A basic menu for beverages. It's about $3 for Mexican pop. They have Jarritos and Sidral. It's about $10 for the Veggie Burrito. This is filled with avocado, beans, cheese which I left off, cilantro, lettuce, onions, rice, and tomatoes. Also there's more than burritos. The tortas are an option if looking for more authentic styles of this cuisine and flavors. For sure we could eat here again. It's located on Irving Park at Rohlwing. They're closed Sundays. read more

Buenos Dias Burritos - Veggie Burrito - Mexican Near Me - Itasca, Illinois

Ownership changed and this place is not good anymore. The burrito tastes nothing like it did before, and honestly, since the other owner died, this place should be retired. Completely disappointed by the fact that it was the greatest burrito place, to what it's become. read more

I found a random Mexican restaurant and was so impressed! The torta was 10/10 and they had a cool salsa bar with like 8 salsa. A must try

Just a great place food came out fast and was great just a great small family business read more

Great food and service. Eat in and enjoy free chips and salsas (10 kinds, with pickled jalapeños, carrots and cauliflower).

I stopped in to try some steak tacos. They were very good and had a nice amount out of meat in them. They were served them with a wedge of lime. 3 tacos with a can of Coke was $ 12.30 read more

Buenos Dias Burritos - Steak tacos with onions and cilantro. - Mexican Near Me - Itasca, Illinois

Bar none, hands down, best street tacos in the NW burbs. Carne asada is FIRE. Salsa is fire. Churros fire, enchiladas fire. Torta fire.

There are new owners, RIP to the previous owner who was the friendliest among the other employees. I definitely recommend giving this business a chance, I've been going there with my family since I was young and I see so many improvements of the food! The tacos taste very authentic to the nostalgia of Mexico which it might taste different to others but again AUTHENTIC. The staff is very friendly, I'm definitely gonna be one of the regulars of this place again! read more

Buenos Dias Burritos - The steak burrito was great best burrito I've had if I'm honest, love the variety in salsas with their salsa bar! - Mexican Near Me - Itasca, Illinois

I stopped by to celebrate the Burrito Day and ordered a pork and a steak one with the side oreder of the guac and chips. The order had a ground beef and a steak burrito and just the guac. $17. The burrito looks really big but as soon as you start to bite it you understand you've been had. They are very skimpy on the meat. This is one of THE MOST mediocre burritos I have ever had in my life. Half a pound of no-texture-no-flavor-no-meat wrapped in a store-bought tortilla. What else? The steak was chewy.. The guac lacked the flavor too.. they didn't add salt or pepper and it tasted like they used one of them sweet onions types. Bland. This ISN'T how you want to celebrate the Burrito Day for sure. read more

my go to mexican place. the building itself is shady, always has been. But the food is epic. The I personally love the steak/guaca nachos and burritos but overall the value can't be beat. And the meat is higher grade/cleaner than what you'll find at other places so way less chunky bits. Shout out to the guy that used to own the place that passed away. He was the man. The business lives on though. They always serve well and maintain quality. Try it out and you won't be disappointed. oh and also it's the cheapest in the area. Can't be beat. read more

2 taco special (choice of meat -chicken, steak, beef) with beans and rice for $5.50 Portions are big...food is good. .:) Wait time for food: ~10 mins+ depending on how busy it is... Recommended to order ahead so your food is done when you arrive. .:) CASH ONLY!! read more

Buenos Dias Burritos - 2 beef tacos with rice and beans - Mexican Near Me - Itasca, Illinois

Pretty damn good. $5.00 for tacos, Spanish rice, refried beans. No iced tea is served. Very fast. A heck of a lot better than a $20 meal at the nice Mexican restaurant around the same area. Little, cute. I almost missed it. Very worth the price. I love this place, and will return on my next visit to Itasca. I got two soft tacos, with the yummy double shell. Beef. I thought the sauce was a bit on the hot side, but they give you plenty. So effing good. Maybe I should give it 5 stars. Definitely a restaurant to not skip.. It is in the same strip mall as Bread and Butter. I almost drove past this restaurant. Easy to miss. Cash only. But heck, for $5.00, who cares? read more

Buenos Dias Burritos - Mexican Near Me - Itasca, Illinois

I thought long and hard about if I wanted to leave a review like this but I decided I had to and I'll explain why. I am also a small business owner and I take customer service very serious and I feel like the woman who took my order today had a serious attitude problem and was rude. There are plenty of other businesses in the area I could have gone to spend my hard earned money but I went there and felt like I was not a valued customer at all. Then to top it off the food was pretty bad. So because of these 2 issues I just feel I couldn't let this slide. The torta was average but the tamale was horrible and hard that I didn't even eat it. Sorry but I couldn't recommend this place to anyone read more

Buenos Dias Burritos - This was my order so that they will most likely know who I am and that I spent a decent amount for something that wasn't worth half! - Mexican Near Me - Itasca, Illinois

Awesome family run restaurant. Tried steak, pork, and chili rellano tacos with rice and beans. The pork and rellano were amazing, and the beef was great too just not on the same level. Tacos were double tortilla wrapped (the best), the rice was good and the beans had a nice pile of cheese on them. The only thing the tacos were missing was some onion + cilantro. Other than that this place is pretty perfect, great prices and big portions much appreciated as well! read more

Where do I begin? The horchata from here is watery and also a very odd color of coffee and cream. I've never had horchata that was a creamy brown color. The steak is completely over seasoned and also tasted like carnitas instead of steak. The chips are rock hard crunchy and both salsa's are super spicy. I love some spice but my nose was running, it was that hot. It's hard to taste food when all your mouth is feeling is fire. read more

Very good burrito. Great guacamole. Loud music in Spanish. I didn't mind the Spanish radio station, but I did think it was too loud. Staff lackluster but efficient. They make the food and call it out from the counter, where you are supposed to go get it. Its a fine system I guess, but they did not share it with me, so had to repeat a few times my order. I might have just brought it out at some point when it was clear I was not "hearing" it. Loud music played a role in this too. Tables could use a wipedown. Food - 4 stars Ambiance - 2 stars Employees lack of smiling - 2 stars Overall 3 stars. They have a visa sign posted, but seems to be a cash business. Easy parking. read more

It's a hole in the wall but it's really good. Would recommend anything except nachos.

We ordered a super burrito, tacos and a tostada. For the three of us this was a good amount of food. The food is all made to order and very delicious. Simple easy Mexican fair, probably what makes it so good. Would definitely recommend this place and look forward to coming back again. read more

My husband and I got tacos tonight! Steak, chorizo, chicken, and ground beef tacos. The chicken and chorizo were especially tasty... We also got the pork tamale tonight. It was bland, so not much to say about that. The cinnamon chips (for 50 cents) were awesome!!! So worth it. They made it fresh... read more

Went for carry out lunch yesterday as always, nearly every Saturday with my son. The place was empty at 12:15, should have know something was wrong. Ordered a large burrito; saw the price had gone up "again" ! My son ordered 3 tacos, all new faces behind counter left me wondering "did they change hands?" Everything fit into a smaller bag than usual. When asked about the hot sauce, they told me there was enough, so I asked how many and then asked for 1 more. They were indignant, reluctantly added added as I wished. Anyway, paid the $24 bill. Got back to my office and opened the meal. Had I not been a long time patron (5+ years) I might not noticed the burrito was mostly lettuce, almost no beans and a nearly imperceptible Chile. Mostly shell , which a third had to be torn to get what little flavor that was there. $9! Meanwhile, my son's tacos were also I won't of flavor according to him. He used a container of hot sauce on each one, which he never does for the now "street sized tacos" at $4.50 a pop. Even the hot sauce was watered down. Sorry to see this place the way it is now. Will not return again. Doctor M. read more

Definitely a quality burrito considering how far away I am from the mexican border. You are going to get a lottt of food. And suffer a food coma. Got the chips and guac on the side; its "ok". The guac needs some sort of citrus or something to cut through the creamyness. read more

OK, so I need to revise my review. I've been craving Mexican lately and this place really hit the spot. It's waaay too easy to go overboard here being the menu is relatively cheap. Drove around, craving something. It was TACOS. Before I knew it, I walked out with a crap load of food! BTW, their salsa is AMAZING. My wife can freaking drink that stuff! read more

Ordered 2 steak and 1 ground beef taco. Both were very good and also they were a good size for 2.50 each.

I have been coming here for years because the food was fantastic and fairly cheap for the large sizes. Bonus: They had the best horchata around, hands down. I am only giving them 3 stars as I feel the service is changing. I bought a guacanacho meal and a large horchata like normal and was dismayed. The tomatoes tasted sour and old and the horchata tasted spoiled!! I don't know if it was just a bad day at the restaurant but I can say I won't be going back. read more

These are my favorite tacos! The steak tacos are simply incredible, staff is friendly and accommodating. If you want authentic tacos, this is your stop. read more

This is a small family owned business. The building isn't that great - it's got a tiny dining room and it's not be renovated in a while. However, the food is great and the staff is friendly. If you're looking for that out of the way, reasonably priced, great food joint this is it. When my friends are in town, they always ask "Can we go to that Hole-in-the-Wall-Mexican place?" I personally love the beef taco dinner - 3 tacos, refried beans, and rice. They used to be cash only, but they take credit cards now. read more

Have been coming here for a long time, all the food is authentic and cheap. They are very consistent and make everything fast. I typically get two ground beef tacos but I've had most of the food on the menu read more

Not the best, but really cheap. First time I ever had a milanesa burrito. I'd still rather have my Ino's in Oak Park, but this definitely wouldn't be a bad replacement. P.S. Cute females working there when I went. read more

Quick, fast, and Good Mexican food.. what more can u ask for... This is definitely a Ma and Pop joint... Cash only!! so if your going here don't forget that. The inside is small, with a few tables. But the staff here are very friendly. Love the tacos here... I've had their chicken, steak, ground beef.. love it. The best thing that I love here is their hot sauce. I would ask for it on the side... and it usually comes in a little plastic container. Do not try this if you cannot stand "hot" food... As I am eatting my tacos, I love to sip the hot sauce!! yes I said sip... LOL It's awesome! A taco plate runs for about $7, which comes with 3 tacos beans and rice... so not bad at all. Food is usually prepared quickly and every thing is always packed nicely. I have no complaint. My favorite thing here is the Horchata. Its absolutely great!!! I can drink a pitcher of this stuff... if I allow myself to. I definitely recommend going here if you have a craving for some Mexican food... there's lots on the menu to pick from. I've tried a few things here, but I still keep going back for the tacos... Just writing about this place makes me want some mexican food from there right now. YUM!! =) read more

Do not make the mistake of buying the Giant anything unless you plan on sharing.. I'd almost suggest not even going with the super burrito if you're getting that. I ordered the junior chicken burrito and it was delicious (The rice can be on the dry side but the sour cream/chicken can make up for it if you like rice in the burrito). Tacos are made fresh to order and I would get 2-3 if you are making that your meal. Tortas bun is soft like a baby's bottom and has good flavor. I wish they put a little more guacamole though. Good combo for first timers would be the tortas and a taco of your choice (pork was good) The place is a little small but it never gets too busy where you are not able to sit down. It's decent prices and again huge portions. I am 100% sure you can make two meals out of the giant! I'd recommend the place for some good cheap mexican food, but for you business folks they do NOT take AMEX. read more

My dad loves this place, and we'll do anything in his power to get us to eat here whenever we've had our fill of Chinese buffets. It's probably because this is the only place within a few miles of us that serves lengua (tounge) tacos. For what it's worth, those are pretty good. The pros: Aforementioned lengua tacos. Portion size, you will be full, guaranteed. Speed, you will be full fast, like within 5 mins of placing your order. Cons: With speed comes a trade off in quality. The guacamole is a dull yellow instead of a vibrant green, and tasted like it had no seasoning whatsoever. The rice was falling apart, like they used rice made much earlier in the day, and all of the seasoning started clumping up instead of being evenly distributed. The last big thing I noticed was that the horchata was incredibly diluted. Which was OK because I need to cut back on sigar, but not ok because I paid for a large glass of horchata flavored water. Maybe it was one of their slower days (saturday lunch) and they compensated by skipping on some of the freshness and taste today. But consistency will always be your friend when looking for customers, and today they didn't deliver. read more

They have excellent food . Fast service. Good place to stop after work. Generous portions read more

Loved this place! Simple, Tasty Mexican. Choose from the menu on the wall, place your order at the counter and have a seat! $1.85 for a great authentic taco, huge quesadillas, and nice people. Would eat here three times a week if I lived here! read more

Chorizo Super Quesadilla and Fries or Chips & Guac has been my way to go for more than five years. The green sauce is not for the weak.

Love this place! I'm 100% Mexican so when I say this place is good...it's good. For the gringos, Mr Burrito man adds lettuce and tomatoes to the tacos. For the Mexi's, he does only cilantro and onions. I suggest everyone try a taco they way Mother-Land Mexico intended it to be. :D read more

Fun times. This is the hole in the wall, mexican food done right. I love their guaca nachos a bunch. Its a dart in dart out kind of place but does have some good sitting tables as there have been days where I have taken some friends there to game for an hour or so. The staff is nice and they have been at it since I was a kid. I will totally be back soon. Thanks for providing the service and keep serving the happy people! read more

Grabbed lunch here the other day. Reasonably priced and they ACCEPT CREDIT CARDS. Got a 2 chicken taco lunch special for around $6. The chicken was ok, but very spicy. It was drenched in a red sauce which I haven't seen before at other places. Also, this place is no joke with their sauce (they give generous amounts of both red and green sauces). This lunch really cleared any congestion I may have had because each bite was hot, hot, hot! Green sauce was exceptionally spicy. Rice was a bit dry. read more

You can't go wrong with a steak torta, taco, or burrito. I travel all over the suburbs for work. If I'm working in the area 2 days in a row, I will eat there 2 days in a row. It gets a little crazy during the lunch rush but it will be worth the wait. Throw a buck in the tip jar too. Everybody there busts their hump to get your order ready. read more
