Small family Mexican restaurant. Mainly take out as there are on seats for 30. I got the taco lunch special with Horchata. $8 for two streak tacos, rice, beans, and a drink. Everything was good, service was friendly and fast. I will definitely be coming back for a good inexpensive lunch. read more

Stopped here after work one day on the way home - and was fairly impressed. The staff was really friendly - didn't mind when we were short about 35 cents (didn't see the cash only sign in the window...!) The burritos were HUGE! Fairly decent tasting but definitely filling. The guacamole on the other hand was amazing - and this coming from a person who does not like guac. Didn't get a chance to try the salsa but plan on doing so next time. read more

Yummy milanesa torta! The steak burrito was good too. This place is small but has friendly customer service and good food. The horchata was ok, but I still recommend this place based on everything else. read more

Buenos Dias Burritos - Steak burrito - Mexican Near Me - Itasca, Illinois

If you're looking for a quick lunch, dinner, or to go order then Buenos Dias Burritos is the spot for you. Also they say they have the best Burrito's this side of the Rio Grande - YES, it's a true statement I validated it many a times (got to be sure with product testing). Seating is a bit limited, when we have had large groups we made sure to go early as this place gets packed (line waiting outside and the room filled to capacity that a fire marshal might have issues with!) They charge for a soda refill but at $.25 it's not a big deal and it's CASH ONLY so be aware of that for all you card swiping peeps! read more

I recently moved to the Wood Dale area and had a taste for some authentic Mexican food. Having found that there are probably close to 40 different Mexican restaurants in or around the area, I was in luck. My fiancé was on her way home from work and I told her to stop at the closest one to her location. I told her I just wanted a steak burrito and also sour cream and cheese inside the burrito. I also asked her to pick up a loaded nacho to bring home. When she arrived she realized there was no sour cream and cheese and also extra sour cream cost $.80 extra add on. The place was deserted from what she told me and after tasting the food I can see why. It was awful. It was some of the greasiest old tasting food I've ever had. When I bit into my burrito, it was not steak, but was ground beef. It was extremely greasy and the grease had a hint of fish taste that is normally an indicator of old grease. The food here also is not cheap. The nachos were equally as bad -- old tasting tortilla chips with old grease flavor. But, don't just listen to me, check it out for yourself this is just my opinion. read more

Buenos Dias Burritos - Greasy bad tasting steak burrito - Mexican Near Me - Itasca, Illinois

See all

It's a hit or miss these days, but back in the day it was always consistent. Anyway my mom loves it. My husband and I , off and on, well we get sick from it. I am not sure what is going on, but it's taking a gamble. Horrid stomach pains. So anyway I stopped taking the chance, he still does and my mom is fine. LOL WTF read more

Some of the best Mexican food in the area. As a college student I really like this place because you really get the worth of your dollar. Anything on the menu is great but I have gotten the Torta more than once because it's so huge and covered in guacamole, as well as other ingredients. The only downside is that it's only open till 9 p.m. Not a lot of people know about Buenos Dias because later at night the crowds head to some other place across town that's open later, but who's food isn't as good. If you're from the area definitely check it out. If passing through I'd hit up some other places UNLESS you really like Mexican food. read more

I have lived in Itasca for 8 years and never stopped by. Took a chance and glad I did. Got the chicken burrito, tasty and very large portion...ended up splitting it with my daughter. Price is right for what you get, only waited 5 minutes for my walk in order. Large menu, will come back. Only drawback for me was soda choice....they have what I call no-name brands (RC Cola, etc). Being the diet coke addict that I am, was disappointed with that. read more

This place is unbelievable. Cheap prices, but really tasty food. I'll admit that a few times the steak will be a little on the tough side, but for the other million times I've been there, it's worth the risk. Jr Burritos are the perfect size and everything in them is so good. read more

I returned to this place for the first time in awhile. I wasn't fan before, but this time had a much better experience. I had typically gotten the burritos, but for some reason, I thought they had an odd taste. After reading all the good reviews on the tacos (carne asada), I decided to change it up a little. I definitely will give a "thumbs up" to the steak tacos (with cilantro and onion--Mexican style). The only drawback I see is that the place is very small, and has practically no room for standing (while waiting for an order), and they do not take credit cards. read more

Read a few reviews before stopping by to check it out. Flavor is a huge deal here. We were working on a patio nearby and after the first time we got food from here we came back 2 more times. The burritos are big and meaty. So are the tortas. Everything is fresh. Salsas are good and spicy. Will keep coming back when ever I can. read more

I've been coming to this restaurant for 15yrs now and I would rather eat at Buenos Dias Burritos every time with my family. It is small and hasn't changed over the years, but the Food is EXCELLENT. I would recommend this to anyone. Steak tacos and burritos are GREAT. I moved to Rolling Meadows and will always make the drive to Itasca, Its WORTH IT. read more

Honestly, this is a hidden Jewel in the town. Not a lot of people know about it, but the food is amazing and you should try it!!

You get what you pay for. There's a wait for the food; I guess they make it there. I couldn't tell from the chicken in my the chicken soft taco platter, with 3 tacos, rice and refried beans, for about $7. The chicken filling looked like something that was sitting in a warmer all day. It was in some kind red soggy sauce. The green sauce is deliciouso and spicy! I did have enough left over for lunch the next day too. I also hate when restaurants charge for drink refills. At least I can fill the cup myself, so the whole thing isn't full of ice. But the cup costs more than the soda I poured in it, let me get 1 measly refill. read more

This place is not even close to 4 stars. I had steak fajitas & the meat was tough. My jaws literally ache from trying to chew them. The refried beans were dry (basically old) & tortilla chips on top were totally stale (I couldn't even finish the 1st chip) The rice was also old & full of raspado (not the good kind) Like reheated over & over again. My hubby had a burrito & that was also dismal. The steak dry & crunchy with the same crappy beans. The only positive is it was cheap but I won't be back for sure. read more

This is by far my favourite place to get a burrito! The other food on the menu is alright but the burritos keep me coming back! Muy Bueno read more

Very good Mexican food at a great price! There are only 4 small booths seating four, another booth for two and one long table that will accommodate 8. Yes, they take cash only so be prepared but BDB will be gentle to your wallet. The 2 tacos, rice and refried beans special for $5.00 is the best deal around. I ordered the 2 steaks tacos special (no up charge to get steak), a basket of chips and salsa and a small Jarritos tamarind for just $8.29. The tacos were perfect! The rice was fluffy and had a nice kick to it. I normally just pick at refried beans because the lard used in the cooking is usually so overwhelming. Not here at Buenos Dias. The frijoles were delicious. The chips and salsa were just so-so but who cares. Great taco meal for so cheap and the option to order a Jarritos fountain drink (at no extra charge compared to a boring soft drink) made this a super lunch pick. Buenos Dias? It certainly is! read more

I've been coming here for a year now. I come here once a week for lunch on average, so I figured I should rate this place. I always get the steak taco dinner (they know my order as soon as I walk in). Service is very efficient. Love this place!! I'm going to miss it when my job moves downtown this summer... Also, I've read some if the comments that they take cash only? Not true in my year coming, I always used a card. read more

I LOVE this place. Steak burrito dinner is awesome - burrito plus rice and beans and a few tortilla chips, for less than $9. My "go to" when I am on my own for dinner. read more

A little strange as the burrito special comes with fries, but the burrito is pretty darn good (maybe a little less beans), and the fries are excellent with a little salsa verde. The salsa verde by the way is some of the best I have had. RC products which is a nice change. I think they take cash only, but worth a try. Best Mexican food in the area. read more

If you want authentic Mexican food then Buenos Dias Burritos is the place to go! We have had the chorizo, chicken, & steak tacos, steak & chicken tamales, chorizo & chicken tortas, and the guacamole. I'm personally not a fan of spicy food and it is not hot at all. So if you're looking for spicy cuisine this isn't the place for you. Be sure to bring cash and if possible call ahead for take out. It usually takes them about 10 minutes to prepare your delicious take out meal, however during weekends you may have to wait as they may have a line. They also cater and have great package options. As many other yelpers shared its good, cheap, with a hole in the wall vibe, but does not take credit cards. Lucky for you there is a gas station in the same parking lot so use their ATM and enjoy some Mexican takeout tonight! read more

I LOVE Buenos Dias! I'm working nearby there this summer and go there almost every day for lunch. It's a "hole in the wall," with amazing tacos (I get bistec, with to the delicious guacamole), cheap and fast. It's a good place to practice ordering in Spanish too. read more

A nice small little taco stand in Itasca. They cooked the food very good and the place looked cleaner than some other places. Very good quesedellas read more

I wasnt expecting much for being suburb tacos in the first place but I love tacos so had to settle and thought reviews seem good for here BUT this place really is disappointing. Let's start with the horchata. Its bland and basic. No flavor waterdowned with 2 much cinnamon to try and mask the blah taste. 1st sip I knew the food would be the same. The carne asada has no flavor what so ever. I couldnt even finish my sopes. The chicken tacos are over seasoned spicy and missing ingredients. Wheres the cheese that's claimed on the menu? I dont recommend this place. read more

Cheap and good quality food. Love the tacos. Fast and friendly service. We've been coming here weekly since discovering this gem!

I was looking for a place to eat I came here for a business trip I was in a mood for Mexican food and found this place. It's a great place and there food is delicious. I really recommend it! read more

MOST AMAZING MEXICAN RESTAURANT in Itasca ! They have amazing food which taste so delicious :) Friendly workers are always polite ! Could never go wrong when going to Los burritos :D it is a small restaurant but COMMON they make delicious Mexican food :))! & they now accept Visa! read more

Super nice people. Very fair prices. I must say that I've only had the chicken for the last 7 years. They use some kind of spice on the meat that is very tasty and unusual. I like to count all the spelling errors on the wall menu. You can't go wrong with this place. read more

I work in Itasca, so this place is conveniently close for some decent Mexican food. They have a couple decently priced meal specials. Thought the buritto and fries were kind of odd, but their fries are surprisingly good. Never had the giant buritto, but the super buritto is pretty huge. The steak is decent, but could handle a little more flavor. The staff is always friendly and courteous. If you like your Mexican hot, ask for the habanero salsa. It's excellent and packs a nice kick. read more

It is excellent for a greasy spoon Mexican joint it is. Tacos and burritos are among the best I ever had and priced very competitively. This is also one of the rare places that serves tongue, with trappings of your choice. read more

Holy god, i've never been so disappointed... reviewed highly by fellow yelpers and it was so bad... well it wasn't bad but it definitely wan't good i got the big burrito or giant or whatever and it was steak and it was way over seasoned not too salty mind you but just covered in whatever they seasoned the meet with and it was bad... i drove from Elk Grove Village to here and was uber disappointed i though my co-workers were about to throw a burrito at my head luckily they were understanding... please do your self a favor do not eat here and they do accept plastic no need to collect cash read more

I stopped by on a whim and I am very pleased with my decision. I am right now eating a legendary burrito. The price is great and so is the atmosphere. Come on by. You'll be glad you did. read more

We had been looking for good Mexican food ever since we moved to the burbs and this is it. Nothing fancy but definitely yummy and affordable. If you don't like rice, beans or all those other fillers they put in burritos be sure to tell them. The steak was nicely seasoned and cooked just right, but I wasn't feeling the beans. The service was also pretty good too! read more

Good hole-in-the-wall mexican joint--reminds me of the mexican taco shops you can find on the corner of every block in Los Angeles, and the food tasted pretty much the same, which is a good thing. Inexpensive, too. I had the steak burrito dinner (under $9), which included a steak burrito which probably weighed about 1.5 pounds, filled witih steak, beans, cheese, tomato and lettuce. The steak was cooked with a mild red (adobo?) sauce. Also came with authentic-tasting beans and rice, and a few corn chips. I ordered a side of the "hot" sauce, which is a green and very spicy although not that flavorful sauce--I expected it to be a green habanero-base sauce, but it did not have the signature habanero taste, so not sure what they used. Would have liked to have tried the tacos too, but I couldn't even finish the burrito. Good spot. read more

Place is descent. Tacos were made delicious. Definitely will be added to my list to visit.

BDB is a great restaurant. We have lived in the area for 16 years and have never been here. It's great! We had the veggie burrito, chile rellenos burrito, steak sopa, chicken taco and chorizo taco. All were fantastic and reasonably priced. we'll be back. read more

This is my go to right around the corner taco joint. It's a very cheap dinner for when I am too lazy to cook or forgot to take out meat. For the price, it's great, but if you want the best authentic Mexican food around, it's not for you. It's good for the price and how fast they can get the food out, you can even call ahead. The tacos are good, but if your against greasy food, stay away from the quesadilla, it is dripping. They give you good portions though so you won't be hungry later on. read more

For a Mexican restaurant out in the 'burbs, this place is up there. It's not too bad, especially for the price. I've gone here multiple times and the Burritos, Tacos and Torta's are all good. Great salsa verde. My only gripe is the Horchata. It's not the best, but the food makes up for what it lacks in the "wash it down" dept. read more

I don't live in the area but, I was hungry and looking for somewhere to get some lunch. I'm glad I went here. I got a burrito and it was delious! Full of flavor especially with the green salsa. read more

My usually place was not open, so tried here for a steak burrito. Two bites in I knew I made a mistake. Over seasoned poor quality meat. Will not be back. read more
