A random Taco Tuesday turned into a New Mexican spot for us! My partner and I walked in wanting a quick meal not too far from home. We found this location in the same plaza as the Trader Joe's, what a treat! Upon walking in it was empty so we assumed it would be nasty. We were wrong! It took us about 5 minutes to order. The location was clean, the register was updated and there were no food containers sitting out in the open. Altogether we paid about $55. A little pricey, but we were hungry. It took about 10-12 minutes for our food to arrive, so there had to be more than one cook. The food was hot and fresh. The barria taco shells were fresh, but the meat was old and greasy.....this was a huge yuk factor for me. I won't write Taco Dale off, but I will try another meal next time. The steak fajitas with rice and beans were so good! I should have ordered that! I'll be back to try them out again! read more

The cashier is so rude. The food is waaaay overpriced for what you get. Everything costs extra. Taste is not that great either. They even get you for sour cream... read more

Mid size space inside with seating option. Service was fast. Typical Mexican restaurant drink avaible. Got chips and salsa at the table Veg buriito- 3/5 less stuffing and would add rice next time. Veg sope- 4/5 Fried jelepeno- spicy It will be good to add creamy avacado salsa as an option read more

We come to this location almost weekly for lunch. Juan and crew are fantastic! Seriously, I love the staff here. They are the best. Food is always consistent and delicious. The best Al pastor around! I know this is a family run small chain of restaurants in Chicago area. Please stay this way because you are doing it right! read more

The service and food are outstanding. We were so impressed with the menu and quality of everything. Just came in here for a little mid afternoon snack and was pleasantly surprised to see they made really good margaritas. My go-to for tryjng out a New Mexican restaurant is a bean tostada. They had a vegetarian tostada so I ordered it. Very fresh ingredients. A nice layer of refried beans, lettuce, tomato and fresh slices of avocado. The guacamole is nice and chunky. Again very fresh. A very good size portion and delicious. My friend got an Al pastor taco with corn tortillas and was very happy. She said the seasoned marinated meat was very moist and muy delicioso. I was pretty amazed with the service - we had two separate servers come ask us if everything was good and if we needed anything. They were all very nice to us. The place is very spacious and clean. A happy ambiance. This was a memorable place to dine and we will be back. read more

Located off of Randall but you have to enter on Fabyan Parkway. Plenty of parking. Service is okay. Tacos were very good. Pastor and Steak are the best. If you're in Batavia this will be your best shot on having the best tacos in this town. read more

This is very definitely Americanized Mexican food but that is what my family likes. We have enjoyed the tacos and burritos from here and will be returning. read more

My wife and I decided to check out Taco Dale since it is new in town. We were not disappointed. The counter staff showed us to a table after we ordered at the counter. My wife ordered a torta, and I had a shrimp fajita taco and a steak fajita taco. The food was excellent! I really enjoyed my steak taco. During our meal the manager stopped over to make sure everything was okay. You don't usually find that in a counter service restaurant. We were completely satisfied with our meal and will definitely be going back. read more

Taco Dale - Steak fajita taco, and shrimp fajita taco - Mexican Near Me - Batavia, Illinois

Food and service are amazing! The flavors are authentic, the portion sizes are large - I always have left-overs. Great value!

Food is authentic, service is friendly, and one of the few places that make a delicious Chile relleno! Recommend!

We did a huge carry out order for the office and not only was everything accurate, labeled, and delicious... but they were so incredibly fast! I love the salsas and guacamole, my tacos were amazing! Honestly I can't wait to come back! read more

This is becoming my new go to for burritos in the area. I'm a fan of pastor burritos, and this place does it right. The staff are super friendly, the prices are fair for the amount of food. The restaurant is very clean. You get complimentary chips and salsa when dining in. The salsa are great, but the chips taste store bought. They also have a full bar. read more

I had the carnitas gordita with some shredded lettuce. The soft 'shell' was tasty but somewhat greasy. The carnitas were little rectangular pieces of pork instead of the typical shredded pork but they, too, were tasty. The refried beans and melted white cheese inside the gordita were excellent. For $6.50 it's a very good value. The bean and cheese burrito is terrific as is but even better if you take it home and add some shredded lettuce and Daisy sour cream. read more

This was my first visit to this Taco Dale location. I love that it's closer to my house, yay! Their food prices are fair for the quality of the food. Their customer service is good. They bring out complimentary chips & salsa to your table. I like that they're friendly and have metal utensils unlike the Aurora location. Their enchiladas are tasty and they serve good sized portions for their rice & beans. Can't wait to visit again! read more

I really wanted to love this spot, instead I got meh... I ordered 2 enchiladas ala cart and very plain, no sauce or cheese to speak of. Hubs got the steak tampequena and it was overcooked and quite small. The guacamole was pretty good but not mashed, just chopped. For us two, small quac, steak and a couple enchiladas and one soft drink it was $53. I think the value at Parilla Burrito down the street is much better, flavors as well. I will try it again just to see if tonight was a fluke... read more

Food was absolutely amazing, you get a lot for your buck. Best burrito and taco salad i've ever had. The atmosphere is so welcoming and friendly!! would totally recommend read more

Delicious food!! My husband and I always love what we get from here. My favorite is the Al pastor taco dinner.

We wanted Mexican on a Sunday night and our go to place was closed so we decided to try Taco Dale. I ordered a Steak Burrito and My husband had Chicken Tacos. My burrito was okay nothing exciting. My husband liked his chicken taco.Staff was attentive and dining area was clean.There are better alternatives in the area. read more

Fish tacos were good but pricey. Nachos were horrible. Fake cheese like ballpark nachos.

Customer Service Fail- My family & I came here today and ordered $70 worth of food. I ordered a quesadilla and asked if it came with sour cream. The lady ringing me up said yes and with pico & guacamole. (As stated on the menu) Once my food came it didn't include anything. The manager said that the girl who rung us up was new and didn't know and I had to purchase the sour cream, pico and guacamole separately. I told her the menu shows that it's included. She then told me she was the manager and that it was not included if you get the dinner. She continued to argue with me if front of customers. On top of that she went to the table and snatched my already paid for food! I would not recommend this location. Bernice definitely caused this location a loss of money vs just giving the customer a side of sour cream- which is clearly included on the menu. False Advertisement read more

I have been here about 10 times and the food is constantly great! The steak tacos are awesome and I absolutely love their guacamole! I've also had their birria tacos with consume for dipping is also very good! read more

This night is the first time I've had dinner at Taco Dale! It's great! The menu is huge, all the items we had are super tasty, prices are very fair, seating is generous, and the staff is really nice! We will definitely come back!!! read more

Chicken burrito very salty and had to much sour cream and hardly no lettuce or beans chicken was in big chunks. Far from being authentic

If I could give more stars I would. I love the food, especially the chile rellenos (My favorite Mexican dish). The menu choices are expansive, the prices are reasonable and I love that they even serve frozen Margaretas. The service is outstanding, especially Juan. I screwed up my online order big time and he made everything right for me anyway. For a quick service restaurant the ambiance is very good. Everything is scrupulously clean and welcoming with pleasant background music. I highly recommend. read more

Our second time here and just as good as the first! ALL the staff is so personable and friendly and the extensive menu can't be beat. On this visit my wife and I each ordered the Burrito Suizo Dinner.....absolutely delicious, generous portions....enough for leftovers! All fresh ingredients and the complementary chips/salsa and red/green sauce are home made. They bring your meal, chips and salsa to your table, great service. Such a great Mexican restaurant in Batavia!!!! read more

Taco Dale - Burrito Suizo Dinner....amazing! - Mexican Near Me - Batavia, Illinois

We had a really good dinner here. Torta Al Pastor- meat was flavorful and the bread was nice and soft. Both the Steak Fajita and Shrimp Fajita Tacos were great. Complimentary chips (served warm) and salsa for the table. We ordered some cheese sauce for the chips as well- it wasn't spicy (which was perfect for me, but my husband found it to be lacking). Horchata was good. Order at the counter, but they bring your food to your table. They even came back to check on us later. We'll be back! read more

Tried this place for the first time tonight and it was absolutely delicious. Go big with the super burrito, you won't be disappointed. Definitely will be coming back here soon. read more

Same experience as Mike T's review: ordered ahead via web, but when I went to pick it up had to stand in a long line that was moving extremely slow - waited in line probably 20-30 minutes. By the time I made it thru the line the food was ice cold. Spoke to the manager about how the mobile order pickup process needs to change. Food was good, but not worth the frustration. read more

Had the best steak tacos there today! The service was excellent, they bring you chips and salsa if you dine in. Line got long since it was lunchtime but reps were unfazed and moved the line quickly. They offered me a cup for water since i did not purchase a drink. By far the best Tacos in the Geneva/Batavia area and prices were reasonable. read more

Authentic cuisine with an enormous menu to choose from. Great service. Relaxing atmosphere. Chips and homemade salsa brought to table for dine in. We ordered guacamole which was also homemade and authentic. Yum! Considerable portions with genuine flavors of Mexican food. My husband and I have tried 3 times now for lunch and dinner. read more

The food was absolutely delicious I got a steak burrito and it was probably the best one I have ever had! The service was amazing everyone was friendly and the food came out quick. The atmosphere in there was really nice too, it's a place I recommend going to, I know I will be back soon! read more

We stopped by here on the way home from sledding during their grand opening and were greeted warmly by the entire staff. We enjoyed a family style buffet of delicious food. We returned for dinner this evening and had another great experience. This is some of the best food I have ever had in a warm, unassuming atmosphere with great service and warm hospitality. read more

My husband loved the fish tacos. Guacamole was some of the best I've ever had and the steak burrito was really good. No fatty bits in the steak and it had a nice char flavor. Inside is pretty basic but they took really good care of us and came by several times to make sure everything was to our liking. We will definitely go back to try some of their other menu items. read more

This is new, just opened up. We ordered tacos. This place is super authentic and they gave you a lot of meat in your tacos! They don't skim on the portion. Will definitely be returning! read more

The service was good and the place is clean. There is a lot of meat in the burrito and on the tacos. The flavor is completely lacking. Had pastor taco dinner as well as steak burrito. It was all bland. The rice and beans were bland too. The horchata was below average. Burrito guacamole in St. Charles is a longer drive but worth it. read more

We've gone here twice and have been impressed by the the quality of the food, the reasonable prices, the wide menu options including breakfast that is served all day and that they open early. After you place your order and sit down with a number to wait for your food a small basket of fresh tortilla chips and what tasted like homemade salsa was brought to us. No charge. Possibly a new opening feature but still... Both times our food was brought out to us again probably because they weren't busy yet. The booths and tables are spread out and they have Mexican music playing. Both times the owner was there taking orders and clearing tables. He said this is his fourth Taco Dale restaurant. Lots of parking. We will be back. read more

The Restaurant is clean , the service was good and the Food was good , wife had fish tacos and I had the steak tacos .

I don't like to say negative things about a place, but I would definitely pass on Taco Dale. Comprehensive menu, order at the counter where they may or may not have a full bar? There is no beverage menu? Like what Mexican place doesn't push the margarita? Food arrives at tables promptly but so incredibly bland and boring. Chicken fajitas consisted of plain flavorless chicken and some barely cooked onion and green pepper with a few slices of avocado. Steak tacos were a miss too as there is just absolutely no seasoning. The ONLY edible item was the guacamole but sadly even the chips it came with weren't great. Hard pass on this one. $100 4 people no appetizers with 3 fountain drinks. Yeah- no. read more

Good food , decent prices. Poor service. Had an online order, they made me wait in line. I order online so I don't have to wait on your long line. Been there other times and Uber eats drivers don't wait in line. Server made snarky comment about having to wait in line like everyone else. Gotta get a better system. read more
