Great spot for a quick meal. Love that they have a kiosk to order and includes a rewards program. Service is quick, maybe waited 5-7 minutes around dinner time. The food itself was great and just what I was looking for in a nacho platter, perfect portion and didn't skimp on the toppings! Little pricey at $16 but I suppose I would've paid that at a sit down restaurant as well.
Stopped by here after a concert around the corner. Service was good and the food was solid. Everyone I was with seemed happy with their meals, so no complaints there. That said, the ambiance just isn't really my vibe, so I probably wouldn't go out of my way to come back. But if you're nearby and looking for a decent place to eat, it definitely gets the job done.
Birthday lunch spicy and lots of chicken and bacon It's my first choice on a short lunch break but with full of flavor.
Let's begin by saying this meal was better than any Mexican meal I've eaten in Milwaukee. I know that's a fairly low bar, but after 7 years there I really needed some well made Mexican late night fare. I had a veggie burrito that was really delicious. Fresh, well prepared, and savory. I also downed a bag of tortilla chips and queso. So, in less than 30 minutes I was able to eat all the calories for the whole weekend. And, I don't regret a thing. The place is similar to fast-food joint but with more kindness and atmosphere. If I lived in Chicago, this would be a great go-to spot every once in awhile.
On a Tuesday evening, we wanted to make an evening of Taco Tuesday. We immediately thought of Mixteco Mexican Grill. For my order, I decided on "Build Your Own Bowl". With this bowl I chose tofu, white rice, green tomatillo, salsa, chipotle aioli, jack cheddar cheese, lettuce, cold slaw, cilantro, tomatoes, and corn. It tasted heavenly. Joseph ordered the chips and one vegetarian burrito. He said it tasted fine. I give the service an A. The staff works together quickly. Even though customers could eat at Mixteco Mexican Grill, the ambiance felt casual and relaxed. When customers come in, they can go to a kiosk and place their orders with the kitchen staff. Located near the Belmont train station, take the Red, Brown or Purple lines. Come to Mixteco Mexican Grill. Bring friends, family and even a date.
This place used to be one of our favorites in the neighborhood, but I don't know if it's new employees or new management but it's going downhill and not worth it anymore. 1. I don't know if their air conditioning is broken or what, but it is uncomfortably hot in there. The ceiling fans are BARELY blowing which makes me worry about the temperature of the food in the "kitchen". 2.. Ordering a bowl (with rice) used to be something to look forward to. They charge $16 for a surf and turf bowl and now with BARELY any rice!!!!! $16 and you give like 3 grains of rice. Before we used to be able to see the rice in the bowl... now? nothing. 3. Why are you giving people to-go food in a bowl with a top that does not fit? Getting home and the bowl have food falling out of it? That is CRAZY! when I tell the girl at the counter she plays like an airhead and giggles saying "oh I don't order that stuff" so even if you don't order it LET MANAGEMENT KNOW ITS A PROBLEM. And she claims she has but I'm sure that's bs. I asked if a manager was there and she said "well we have one and he's not here". I'm not sure if she's just playing an airhead or really is one. Last time I came in a police officer was in there for clearly and investigation and the same airhead was acting like she doesn't know the managers name. You cannot have someone THAT incompetent being the person your customer interact with! And 4. we used to love ordering the soup as well. Two days in a row (because someone in our home is sick) we ordered the soup and the soup was not at all hot either day!! Before it used to come in a black container and been so nice and hot and good. Now it's $10 for a soup and there's BARELY any soup so $31 for all of this.. and customer service is horrible. There's no way that getting half portions should cost this much! And yes there are pictures to prove it. They used to be a good place, and we found it somewhat worth the money. But now? It's definitely not worth it at ALL!!
This was an upscale fast food place with counter service. The fried fish taco was amazing. The salsas were good and the carne asada and chicken tacos were fine - both definitely needed salsa. It is a good place to grab a taco if you are in the neighborhood, but not worth traveling if you have a closer taco place.
On our way to some bar hopping on Halsted, we saw this fast food Mexican restaurant and I got a craving for a burrito.... The restaurant menu is varied...with bowls, burritos, tacos, etc... The prices are very reasonable and the staff behind the counter was really nice and courteous. I got my Works Burrito and it was really good...not bad for a fast food joint !
Very under rated spot. Anyone who likes a burrito should check this place out. I went for lunch and was the only one there. The space is very clean and organized - nice spots to sit near the window and look out to the street. Service was very easy and quick - no table service so you just pick up food at the front and take it to your seat. Always a nice treat when the presentation of the food is good along with the taste!
Mixteco is my go-to place whenever I want to get quick delivery and I know will be tasty. I love getting the grilled chicken burrito because I can easily get two meals out of it if I order the meal or pair it with tortilla chips. Plus I love that it comes with avocado in the burrito and it isn't extra. I have also tried their quesadilla and I was easily able to get two solid meals from the dish without having to get a full meal. I prefer the burrito more but they tend to give a lot of rice so there has been times when the protein settles at the bottom so you don't get a good balance of ingredients. That is the one con of Mixteco Mexican Grill especially if you are paying extra for protein and the rice ratio is still high. The price of the food is pretty reasonable in comparison to what's around the restaurant. The quesadilla was probably the best bang for your buck if you are on a budget. Sometimes when I am feeling like a treat I order a side of churros which are fantastic. They are always fresh and come with a chocolate syrup dipping sauce which is addicting! I highly recommend Mixteco Mexican Grill if you don't have the time to have a sit down meal.

Overall, Quick casual spot for Mexican food. More elevated than a chipotle. I really like the surf and turf bowl with both the steak and the shrimp. Shrimp was nice and tender. The trace slice cheesecake was also a good dessert but I do prefer it to be more spongy and airy. Very fast service! read more
Mixteco is by far the highest quality fast casual restaurant around - prices are only marginally more expensive than your major chains too. I've tried a bunch of different items and they've always been great! Service is always impressively fast, even when they're super busy. Great value, strongly recommend! read more

Great Mexico fast food stop, delivery, tech savy, easy self serve. The food is really good. Fresh tasting, crisp distinct flavors. I bounce around the menu and everything has be above satisfactory. When you dine in they do a nice job plating. I prefer them better than the national chains in the area. Close to lots of nightlife. Great option good quality quick meal. read more

After driving the struggle bus all morning on New Years Day, I finally decided I'm ready to eat and all I wanted a delicious burrito. Boy, do I feel like a million bucks now! I love the carne asada burrito. It comes with cilantro lime rice, black beans, pico, and guacamole (no, guac isn't extra!). It was absolutely delicious and you can even taste the grill off the steak! My fiancé had the slow roasted pork- which I stole a bite of and also thought was also delicious. They also delivered my food within- get this- 10 minutes! Overall, this place rocks and I'm a very happy girl right now! read more

Loco for tacos Heard about this restaurant from a friend. Man oh man, how tasty! From the menu it's scratch crafted never Mexi-canned. Everything tasted fresh, the service was great, and the Baja fish tacos were YUMMY. Order them grilled not breaded! They have tacos, bowls, chimichangas, and they also have churros with tres leches cake. read more
This counter-serve place is a lot better than many of the sit down Mexican restaurants in the area. Nachos are particularly good, with a hearty serving of real cheese and plenty of jalapenos. The fire-grilled quesadilla is also excellent, but beware that the habanero sauce is not messing around! I also really enjoyed the Al Pastor toca prepared in authentic Mexican style. I prefer my Pastor without pineapple chunks, which is how this is made. Service was friendly and everything was prepared to order quickly. read more

We ordered from here last night via DoorDash and the food was so great! I was craving fajitas and they did not disappoint. I ordered the carne asada fajitas and I'm still dreaming of the fajitas. The meat was super tender and flavorful. Really good portions, I ended up saving the other half for lunch. Price to portion was really great. My boyfriend ordered a taco salad and that also was huge and super delicious. We both can't wait to order from here again and would 1000% recommend! The one thing we were missing from our delivery order were some sauces but not a huge deal. Can't wait to come back! read more
Sometimes you just want tacos, and if you find yourself in Lincoln Park, the Mixteco Mexican Grill is a pretty good place to go and get yourself some! I stopped by here with some friends Saturday night while looking for some food. This place has all the tacos, burritos, and quesadillas you could possibly want. I ended up ordering the Tacos Alambre which was 3 soft shell tacos with carne Adada steak, bacon, cheese, veggies, and guajillo sauce along with some rice and beans on the side. I went into this expecting quality similar to that of a Moe's or Chipotle, but was left with 3 mouth watering delicious tacos that actually filled me. The meat was so tender and full of flavour that i couldn't even get to the rice and beans. Thumbs up for the tacos! Overall, Mixteco Mexican Grill is a great place to pick up some quick and tasty food. I loved the food and the staff was friendly enough. Check this place out! read more
One of those places that you walk past many times and never go in but once you go in and try some food you are amazed! If you are tired of Chipotle and want a step up in Mexican food try this place! Love all the variety of food that you can get and the customization with the meals. I got a pulled chicken taco dinner and it was delicious!! My friend got the quesadilla dinner and also really liked it. And service was SUPER FAST! Will be coming back! read more
During these times it's hard to find a place that takes pride in presentation. I wasn't expecting much from Mixteco, but sometimes you get pleasant surprises. Interior - Walking in the place was empty (a common theme during these times.) Mixteco had a full staff waiting for empty stomachs. The pale yellow & red walls with wood paneling gives you a feeling of confusion. 3/5 Prices - I ordered ground beef chimichanga which came out to a whopping $12.24 & a fountain soda which was $2.49. Altogether my total was $16.29. The chimichanga doesn't come with any sides like rice or chips either. 3/5 Customer Service - My food was ready within 10 minutes & I didn't have any issues. 5/5 Chimichanga - Presentation - No wonder this thing costs over $12. They put a decent amount of effort into the presentation. There's a level of pride here that's uncommon amongst the fast food industry. The chimichanga was perfectly fried & then plated on a bed of green sauce. Couple that with a sourcre am drizzle & plenty of meat/cheese then I present a near perfect chimichanga. 5/5 Taste - You want this chimichanga to taste as good as it looks, but it falls just short. The meat isn't particularly well seasoned & while it's not bland... it's not very flavorful either. It doesn't help that the green sauce (which you can't really avoid since it's literally on a bed of green sauce) is pretty average as well. Nothing really stands out aside from the guacamole which was great and it culminates into an above average outing. 4/5 Overall Mixteco brings a lot to the table. They're able to push out these amazing mouthwatering dishes in record time without breaking a sweat & I applaud them for it. 4 out of 5 stars read more
This is my favorite fast Mexican. I always get the pulled chicken nachos to go and they are delicious. Delivery is always quick, as is ordering in the store and the time it takes to be ready. I love the chips and queso as well. It's definitely a great spot for quick and easy food! read more
Ordered for pickup and was ready in 5 minutes! What was even better was that it was Taco Tuesday, so the taco platter special was a no brainer - 10 tacos with chips (a lot) and salsa. Okay, these salsas were seriously tasty and spicy which I love. We had the carne asada and al pastor and both were goood! I also very much enjoyed their rice and tres leche cake. I've heard so many good things and so glad I finally swung by. This unassuming place is definitely now in the rotation. read more
