    Hace un momento tuve el peor servicio en este lugar. Quiero recalcar que mi familia y yo somos clientes frecuentes y generalmente no soy de poner reviews quejandome de los lugares que frecuento pero siento que merecen esta mala reseña. Llamé para poner una orden y la persona que atendió simplemente se le hizo fácil colgarme, pero no le tomé importancia y volví a intentar porque pensé que talves se fue la señal o algo por el estilo. Pues llamé nuevamente, y la dama que tomó mi llamada me respondió con muy mala actitud, entiendo que talves puedan estar ocupados pero no es mi culpa y tampoco estoy llamando para pedir regalado, creo que todos merecemos una buena atención porque al final de cuentas gracias a los clientes su negocio existe. En fin, puse mi orden rápido para no retrasar (todavia yo siendo considerada) y le recalco muy bien "por favor quiero mis tacos sin cebolla", la señora como por altanería me puso extra cebolla, algo absurdamente malintencionado e incomible, no quise regresar porque sinceramente estaba demasiado molesta y no queria montarles una escena en el lugar, simplemente me tocó tirarlos porque soy alergica y no puedo comer cebolla, y todavía para terminarme de fastidiar, les pedi jugo de naranja natural porque a mi hijo le encanta y le han puesto todas las semillas, y de todas las veces que mi familia y yo hemos ido a comer allí, JAMAS le habian puesto semillas a nuestros jugos y es precisamente por eso que mis hijos les gustaban (obviamente como mamá uno siempre va donde sus hijos comen y disfrutan estar) Les daría la foto de la factura pero fue muy "astuta" la persona que hizo mi orden al no entregarmela, solamente tengo la copia del pago de tarjeta. Pensar que todavia le di propina en efectivo a una persona que no mecere ni siquiera trabajar en un lugar de servicio al cliente porque evidentente no valora lo que tiene, ademas de que pagué por algo que ni me comí. En fín, no pienso volver y para nada vuelvo a recomendar este lugar.

    Really extensive menu, hole in the wall type of traditional Mexican place with pretty authentic food. The tacos were really well filled but a bit on the pricey side. Same thing with the burrito. But everything was really tasty!! Complimentary chips were really good. Nice variety of salsas given although missing a normal normal tasting red salsa. Nice service.

    Probably drove past this place a million times. Hours need to be adjusted. Says closed on Yelp but we are here! We are enjoying pozole on this chilly day. It's excellent. We did half strawberry - half banana shakes too. Despite being a little crowded, food and service EXCELLENT. We were served 5 minutes after sitting down.

    I always order from here and ask for cilantro and onion. This is the second time they did and I called to see what they'd do because ima local. "I called and they told me oh sorry we're closed next time change the order" Can improve on customer service.

    Well I usually rate this place a 4 stars due to value, service, cleanliness but today I was disappointed. The torta asada was supposed to come with avocado but I received one 1/4 of it. Not normal.

    I'm new to the area when I stumbled open this place, and so glad I did. I am extremely picky with Mexican food, because I grew up in a traditional Mexican home and Los Angeles. This restaurant gives home vibes. The service and staff were great. Please do yourself a huge favor and try this place. You won't regret it. Tips: Try and pay with cash.

    These are by far the worst tacos I've ever had in my entire life my order was completely incorrect they gave me tacos with lettuce and tomato who does that the tacos were at best lukewarm just unbelievably bad will never ever come here ever again and I don't recommend anybody else come here

    Absolutely one of the best sandwiches that we've ever had. Ranks right up there in the top 3 for…read moresure! My brother has been telling us about Brasas for a couple of years and this time we finally stopped. Now we can't wait to go back! One of the best things Chicago is there are these little hole in the wall places that have excellent food. This place reminds us of the Depot. Another little hole in the wall on Roosevelt but the chef came from the 95th. My brother said the tortas are the thing to get here. Although he also said breakfast is pretty good. So tortas it was. Two of us ordered the chicken Milanese and one carne asada. When these are served it looks like a mini loaf of french bread. They are huge. The bread one of the most important components to any sandwich was soft and pillowy. The milanese was crispy and not overdone. The carne asada was juicy and flavorful. The tortas come with lettuce and tomato. I finished mine first and started eyeing my wife who gave me the touch mine and sleep on the couch for the next month look. I could have and wanted to eat more but then again there is always next time. And maybe breakfast too. These tortas were outstanding!

    Brasas is amazing. It's a small local spot in Oak Park. Been going here for like 4 years. They…read morealways get my order right (veggie burrito) and my wife's steak tacos.
