Having been to Mexico several times, this establishment mirrors the restaurants I've been to in Mexico. Delicious food and great service.

I tried 4 tacos here. Steak, al pastor, carnitas, and chicken. Mix of flour and corn. All of them were good. Not unique necessarily, but solid. The guacamole and horchata are good here. The salsa for the chips was a little too hot for me and the chips were just ok. Staff is very friendly. Overall, it was a solid stop. read more

Horrible! I spent over $30 for burritos, and normally got free chips and salsa. Yet for 25 minutes I was ignored! I called back later that night to be insulted even further on no free chips and salsa. I didn't mind paying for expensive burritos, because of the quality and size of them. But expected free chips and salsa. And was insulted inside the business and phone call. To be so cheap and keep insulting the customers. How Rude! read more

Every time I visit from California, I stop for juevos ala Mexicana and jamaica. The best anywhere. Wish I could have some right now!

I decided to have a few tacos. The tacos were fine. Not special but filling. I ordered three tacos Mexican style but the waitress brought me two tacos American style. They realized the mistake and offered to fix it. I just went with it rather than wait. The service was good. The fixings were fresh on the tacos. This is a neighborhood restaurant. It's small but very clean. read more

This is an amazing authentic Mexican restaurant. The food is amazing and inexpensive. The service was fast and kind. Restaurant is small, but there is some seating. read more

We ended up in South Bend this past week and we were hungry. Conveniently, we came in on a Tuesday and we're able to advantage of the taco Tuesday deal of $2 for a corn tortilla taco or $2.25 for a flour tortilla taco. Staff is friendly, clean restrooms, clean interior overall and they even have high chairs available. I got 2 ground beef tacos with all 4 available toppings for the taco Tuesday deal (lettuce, tomato, onion, cilantro) in flour tortillas. Tacos were delicious and I'm super glad we came in. Cool art on the exterior wall. If you are in the area, I'd recommend Taqueria Chicago for some tasty tacos. read more

I call to place a to go order. The lady says something then hangs up. This happened 3 times , then all I got was a recording , going right to voice mail. read more

The menudo is the best and service is fast and always on point. The tacos are a little small and sometimes it is not enough meat on them, but they are good. The restaurant is little, but clean the AC was not blowing enough cold air, and it was very hot inside. read more

food is soo goooddd!! service is amazing!! and ambiance is incomparable! gotta see it for yourself !!

Not that good. Steak tacos were ok, not great. The gordita was bland and undercooked with lumps of gummy masa inside. The chips were cold and stale and the salsa had a very bitter off flavor. Service wasn't all that friendly. Won't be back for a second round. Too many options elsewhere. read more

Great local restaurant. Service is fast, but that doesn't come at the expense of quality. Our food was tasty and fresh. We got horchatas, too--highly recommend! read more

Great food and quick service. Excellent place to grab a quick bite at a reasonable price.

This place was an absolute gem of a find on our road trip from Chicago to Pittsburgh. The tacos are very reasonably priced at $3 a piece, with free topping additions of tomatoes, lettuce, cilantro, onions and a green and red salsa. I highly recommend the al pastor and steak taco. Barbacoa and chicken weren't worth it, chicken wasn't seasoned very well. It was so good overall that we went back for a second round. Definitely try it out!! read more

I come in to town and I like to party. Next day...Crudo:( Nothing in the world makes me feel better than the Menudo served at this restaurant! You can tell by the steady flow of locals from all backgrounds that is a neighborhood/city favorite. I know it's mine. Everything I've had from the menu is fresh, flavorful, and fantastic! And the art on the side is so sick! read more

I had a Torta with fries. Everything was delicious. I will order from this restaurant again.

Not bad at all! Especially for South Bend, Indiana. Good service, if a bit curt. We were here for lunch and everything we had was delicious. I particularly enjoyed the tacos, and my friend had the chili Verde which he said was excellent. The chili relleno could've been better but otherwise I liked everything. read more

Best food in this area hands down and you cannot get better guacamole anywhere! The service isn't great, but the food makes up for that.

The best mexican food! I drive from New Carlisle to get their food. Even though we have close places we've tried. No one has come close. I'm very picky about my mexican food being a mexican woman and eating my moms mexican food all my life. My husband loves the enchiladas Verdes. My boys love the burritos. The tacos are amazing. The best part is that in this restaurant the Salsas, rice, and beans are not an after thought like most mexican restaurants. They are very flavorful. This place is legit, and we will continue to give them our money. My family from Chicago loved this joint too. Now I'm hungry. Had to edit to say that the prices are very reasonable. read more

We really enjoyed this spot. We had some street tacos and they were all really flavorful. Quick and friendly service, and we will certainly be back. read more

My favorite neighborhood Mexican spot. Al Pastor tacos are my favorite. Hard for me to order anything else on the menu. Lol Service is good but slow at times depending on how they are staffed but that doesn't stop me from eating there...so glad I tried this place out. Definitely a "go to" for me now.... read more

It was really good food but for a restaurant that doesn't even offer fountain drinks they were a bit pricey.

Fucking great food I love it!! Great prices staff was very polite didn't have to wait for the food, great atmosphere!! read more

The food was super bland & super boring, no cilantro, no chipotle, cummin, peppers, onions, garlic, your basic herbs & spices were all missing, the salsa was shamefully very watery (tomato water), the worst I've ever had! terrible!! Burrito was cold inside & out, they didn't even bother to warm up the tortilla. The prices are too high for this crap but service was fine, it's not her fault the cooks can't cook...This place is a joke & nothing Mexican about it & the music is too loud. read more

One of my "go-to" places when I'm craving authentic Mexican food. Excellent gorditas, tacos, rice, beans, etc. the decor is lacking (fast food vibes) but the food is awesome. read more

I ordered 3x el Pastor soft tacos and a lime Jarritos. $10.49 I had to trim fat off of the meat, or this would have been 5 stars. A very nice bite to the red sauce making these tacos very desirable. read more

If you're looking for a great authentic Mexican restaurant, this is it!!! Best tacos I've had in a long time. I had a barbacoa taco, ground beef, and Al Pastor taco. The Al Pastor was my favorite. I also had a side of rice & beans. Sooo yummy!!! You do get 1 free basket of chips and salsa at your table. They will charge you for additional baskets. I'm ok with this so I don't over eat before my meal. The waitress was prompt and the food was on point!!! I'm SO glad I stopped in this place. I can't wait to go back!!! read more

These are the best tacos in town. We tried the al pastor, chorizo, lengua, and barbacoa and each was juicy and flavorful. Their green tomatillo sauce is delightfully citrusy, and if you want a touch of heat, you can use the red. Your first basket of chips is free, and each additional chips and salsa is $1.25. If you're over on Western, don't miss Taqueria Chicago. read more

What happened to my formerly favorite Mexican restaurant??? Was so looking forward to Taco Tuesday....Not only had the prices DOUBLED, the food was inedible. Even my dog agreed. He wouldn't eat it, either. Blech. Por favor, bring back Abuela María! read more

Place is a amazing and the services is good as well just I don't know why he chip refills cost money but other than that the food was amazing. read more

By far the best Mexican food I have had in the South Bend area since moving here from California. The place is kind of out of the way if you are a ND student but the food coupled with their ridiculously cheap prices makes it well worth it. I ordered an Al Pastor Torta which had the right balance of spices and wasn't greasy like so many al pastors are these days and my fiancé had a vegetarian taco which she loved. The one slight knock is their salsa wasn't the best, but I consider salsa to be one of those items that is so dependent on an individual's preferences. Overall, two tacos, one jarritos, and a torta with tip for 13 bucks. Win. Win. read more

I was not impressed with this restaurant. I had much better food. Los Humildes Restaurant is much better. I ordered the Shrimp Fajitas and they were the worst I have had! My husband had the Molcajete 7 Mares and they loaded it with imitation crab and not of anything else that should have had and it was over cooked. The Service was the worst! If the food would have been great, I could deal with the service but it was not! To top it off there was a table of clients that were drunk and loud saying bad words. If I had young kids with me, I would have left. I don't agree they should serve beer to client if they are drunk and loud saying bad words in a family restaurant! My experience was the worst!! I really did not want to give a star. read more

Taqueria Chicago - This is the Molcajete de 7 Mares. I am not sure why my husband ate it. It need tons of flavor and the imitation Crab was covered cooked. - Mexican Near Me - South Bend, Indiana

If you are stuck in South Bend and want a good taco or want to go get a Mexican breakfast at 9 am this is the place. One of my favorite places in this rust belt town. It is so cool, they named it after Chicago - and this is just as good as a Taqueria in the big city. Cheap prices. Family owned. Mexican TV on the wall. Sometimes Mexican music on the juke box (always wondered why they have a juke box). Love the Juevos a la Mexicana here. read more

Eat there once a week at the least, would eat there everyday if I could. Chicken tacos are the best around!!!! Best tacos joint in South Bend! read more

Overall the food is great but some of their staff is not very nice. Maybe she was having a bad day but that's not what you should portray especially if you're in the serving business. Food was good, very good street food. read more

My wife and I decided to try this place based on all the positive reviews the restaurant has received. We were not disappointed. Small clean place. Service was good.. The strong point of this place is the freshness of the food and the availability of Mexican dishes that you can't get at most other Mexican places. Dishes such as lengua (tongue) con mole and Menudo (tripe) soup. My wife, who speaks Spanish, had a nice chat with the woman who seemed to be running the place. We love our salsa and chips and while they were good the salsa comes in a TINY bowl. and if you want more they charge for it. read more

Found this place passing through town. Great Tacos, quaint place. Fast friendly service. The chorizo and lengua were real standouts. read more
