This is seriously some of the best Mexican food in Chicago! My family always comes here after going to the arboretum. Their tacos and salsas are the best. I (very) highly recommend the chicken and carne. Many people also love the quesa birria. They used to do a sweet red salsa that I dearly miss - hope it comes back! The avovado salsa is also unmissable. Chips and guac are great too. read more

This place was so soooo good. I was craving tacos and wanted something new. I spent 17 bucks and had enough left over for another meal. So two meals? For 17? Yes please. Next time I will add on a margarita for $3!! Whose coming with me?? read more

Taqueria Invicto - Mexican Near Me - Oakbrook, Illinois

It is a quirky menu that is tasty. We tend to order the burrito with the flaming hots in it. My son loves it! I just haven't found anything I love. I had the fried this time with chicken on top. The chicken tasty buttery...not sure why. It is worth a try. read more

I'm not sure why the rating is so low for this place. We went on NYE around 7:20 PM and this place saved us. We had a reservation at Lazy Dog and they didn't even have a table for us at our reservation time. Luckily, Taqueria Invicto was open and and plenty of empty tables. We ordered our food at the two kiosks and our food came shortly after. This isn't the most authentic Mexican food but it did suffice. I ordered the 3 taco combo with refried beans and elotes and a pineapple drink. The meats were decent, nothing was tough or chewy. I added some sauce from the station to enhance the flavors. The elotes has a bit of heat to them but not bad. I liked how they used real pineapple in the drink. Service was very friendly. I'll give them a 5 star rating because we were able to receive our food, finish, and had plenty of time before our next activity. read more

Taqueria Invicto has quickly become one of my go-to spots when I'm craving something bold and flavorful. First off--the elote is a must. Creamy, cheesy, perfectly seasoned--it's one of the best I've had anywhere. I also can't get enough of the Mexican Hot Chicken burrito. The portion is huge, crispy, and packed with spice and flavor. Prices are on the slightly expensive side, but the quality and serving sizes make it worth it. The salsa bar is such a fun bonus. Overall, a solid spot for when you want big flavors, fast service, and a little something extra. read more

Did you know that Taqueria Invicto has 3 locations? Naperville, Oak Brook, and Vernon Hills. We had lunch at their Oak Brook location. The food is delicious, the drinks are very refreshing Highlights of the meal were the Quesabirria Tacos, their Papas Especial (a combination plate with plenty of food), Churro Shake, and Hirchata Cold Brew. Try the Grande Plate if you want to taste a variety of their food. With every meal they serve homemade tortillas, rice, beans and chips. Everything was really delicious and we will definitely be back again read more

I'm in love! With? My husband, yes, but also with the Quesabirria Tacos from Taqueria Invicto! We visited their location in Oakbrook, and boy was our food delicious! Who doesn't like homemade tortillas , rice, and beans and chips with every meal? We started off with their Papas Especial, and this was surprisingly good. There is so much food in this dish that it could be considered a full meal. We suggest splitting an order of this just like we did. Then we had Camarones (shrimp), AL Pastor (pork), tacos, and a Quesabirria plate. Both the shrink and pork tacos were very good, but we loved the quesabirria tacos. The meat was very moist, and the dipping sauce was excellent. We also had a Grande Plate with 1 taco, 1 vampiro, 1 sope, rice, beans, and chips. An excellent choice if you want a little variety. To drink, we ordered a Churro shake (really delicious) and a Horchata cold brew (refreshing and tasty). For dessert, we picked up a couple of El Pinguino Paletas that were flavorful and refreshing. We definitely recommend that you go to Taqueria Invicto at any of their 3 locations, Naperville, Oakbrook, and Vernon Hills. read more

A good friend of mine invite me here on a lunch date. The inside of this place is very nice. I'm a huge fan for some good authentic Mexican Food. When my friend suggested Mexican Food, I was excited about trying this place out. It was my first time hearing about this place. I was truly disappointed and wasted my money on this place. The food was terrible and lack flavored. I ordered the steak tacos with a side of beans and rice. We didn't even finish our food, which pissed me off even more to haved wasted my time and money. read more

Got takeout from here and it was okay. I had the Quesabirria plate and they forgot the consume which is a pretty integral part of that dish. The tacos themselves were fine, not the best birria, but okay. Elote, queso dip, and everything was fine but nothing to write home about. I will say it was filling and I did like the tortilla chips. read more

Decided to try this place after trying their food from a work event that had their take out. Location, convenient in a strip mall like area so plenty of parking. This is not a reservation type of place, it's more like a first come first serve fast food like seating. You order at one of the self serve kiosks and grab your food when they call your number. You can see the kitchen from your seats so you know how they prepare food, etc. Ordered the 2 taco dinner which comes with rice and beans, tortilla chips, a roasted pepper (I think it was a serrano) chicken and al pastor tacos. Tortillas are hand made in house, those were so good. The chicken was good, the al pastor could've been better. It didn't seem like the type of al pastor that's cooked on the vertical rotisserie thing at least I didn't see one. They have a salsa bar which is good, you can pick your own salsas to try. Drinks: they do have a bar and offer some basics like margaritas, palomas, micheladas and beer. In our group we each ordered a margarita, paloma and michelada. The drinks were just okay, definitely not made with fresh ingredients and not the quality you would expect at a sit down restaurant with a full bar and bartender. The staff was friendly and welcoming, super helpful when we asked for some extras as well. Overall, good place for fast food Mexican place but not the place if you want a nice sit down dinner. read more

First time here and enjoyed my meal very much. Got the Carne Asada and it was delicious. The Pollo Pastor was good, but should have tried that first...outmatched by The steak. Would recommend read more

I've always wanted to post reviews because I feel like honesty is super helpful, so here it goes. My family and I went to Taqueria Invicto and tried a bunch of things, but honestly... I wouldn't go back. The good: The Hot Cheeto Burrito with the veggie filling was actually pretty solid. It's different and worth trying if you're near one of their locations. The salsa bar was great, and the Churro Shake wasn't bad--probably a 6.5/10. The not-so-good: We also tried the veggie tacos and a plain burrito. They were okay, but not worth a return trip. What really frustrated me was the lack of customization. For example, I just wanted basic veggies like onion and bell peppers, but they'd only let me do a full veggie mix with random stuff I didn't want. It made no sense because some items were customizable, but others weren't. Plus, everything was ordered through a self-serve kiosk, which made it even harder to adjust anything. They've got spots in Des Plaines, Naperville, Oak Brook, and Vernon Hills, so if you're into trying a Hot Cheeto Burrito, it might be worth it. But if you're vegetarian or picky about your toppings? Definitely not worth the hassle. read more

Their birra platter was delicious and each was super stuffed with meat. Definitely worth the wait and price. read more

We were delighted with our $3 margaritas! We shared the classic and skinny margs. The classic is just-right lime and sweet, not syrupy. The skinny was more citrus forward- this is my go-to for margaritas (diabetic) and I like the pucker! Oh, we also had delicious foods. Again, I was very happy with a bowl that offered cauliflower or rice base. Flavor explosion! Good thing a yummy margarita was ready! read more

the food is amazing a real nice twist on the taco! Always fresh and very flavorful. Recommend eating in or take out. read more

Loaded fries were so good honestly that's all I would get next time and a drink nothing was wrong with the other food it was very good as well but the loaded fry's were the star of the show! It was very pretty inside and clean and I enjoyed my meal! read more

Looking for modern, street Mexican? Invicto is the spot! This is the third location of Invicto's I've visited and by far the coolest designed space. This location is also slightly bigger than Naperville and Vernon Hills but same concept. One orders off a kiosk, is given a number, and staff will call out when food is ready. I visited on a Sunday for lunch but it was not crowded at all. All food is made to order so it can take some time; but our orders were ready today in minutes. I got my favorite, the nacho burrito, which comes stuffed with everything you can think of and hits the spot every time. I also love the salsa bar to add another layer of flavor to any dish ordered. Prices are a bit higher than other Mexican spots but ingredients always taste fresh. My only complaint upon visiting was that the music playing was far too loud. Either way... If one is ever in the Oak Brook area, give Invicto a try. read more

This is a truely authentic Mexican food. Their bowls are just amazing. Which is a big portion in my opinion. I dont understnd the low reviews. If you know authentic Mexican food that you will love their food No cash accepted read more

This taco place was really good. My favorite is the Birria tacos and the Mexican corn. read more

It's...fine. Ordered pick up; we all agreed the food uniformly was cooked well and the ingredients were high quality. The flavor was, at best, lacking. Had the al pastor, carne asada, and "Diablo" hot chicken taco, and bowls, the corn and rice and beans. It's fine. Go here if you're afraid of spicy food, and bold flavor. I know that sounds harsh, but, I know there are plenty of people in the west burbs who think mustard is too ethnic. Go here, you'll be fine. read more

Outstanding!!!!! Best birria tacos around! Love the food, the service & the vibe. I drive the 20 miles there for their great food almost weekly! read more

Food is so good!! Fresh and tasty!!! You must try!!! We are definitely coming back! read more

Delicious food and the menu has some unique offerings compared to other similar places

Slowest service ever! 4 tacos took 1 hour... they need to get at least 10 more workers to keep up with 1 order. read more

Inhuman. Would give ZERO stars if allowed. So does a burrito with french fries sound good to you? What about a burrito with flaming hot Cheetos? Some of the choices were rather interesting. Ready to order. And then I waited. And waited. And waited. Other customers stood around baffled. Finally someone comes over and lazily points to a computer behind us all. WTF? A computer! Yet another place that doesn't want to deal with actual customers and humans. (Translation? YOU!) Do not allow the robots to win. Do not allow the computers to take away our humanity. 4 God sake they can't find enough people to work at a Mexican restaurant?!? read more

So so good!!!! The fried avocado tacos have me in a chokehold. Cannot wait to go back. Everything was delicious

I found this restaurant through TikTok! First, I'd like to say that this restaurant and vibe is really cute - well thought out in terms of giving a "Mexican" feel. We ordered Carne Asada tacos, Birria Tacos, Chips & Cheese w/Chorizo, Elote, Horchata and a Jamaica. My general review on the food itself: it was just ok and the food was slightly cold. I think the rice and beans definitely had flavor but everything else was moderate. I wouldn't say that the food gives authentic mexican flavors. If you are skeptical on trying I'd definitely give it a shot! read more

Food was surprisingly good. Technology was a little challenging for this GenXer you can only order food on the kiosk. Went for Brirra and it did not disappoint! A little pricey but on point for Oakbrook. Will definitely go again read more

DO NOT COME HERE UNLESS YOU DO NOT MIND EXTREME RUDENESS. The employees here are useless. There is the dumbest kiosk ordering system here I have ever encountered. I tried ordering on it. I was totally jagged off. So not user friendly. I asked one of the six people behind the counter if I could order with them. I was told no b/c things have changed. The couple on the kiosk next to me had problems ordering as well. They walked out. I could not customize an item on my order the way I wanted it. I asked a second time if I could order with a live person. I was told "no sir." I walked out. Fuck these assholes!!! Go here if you want to be jagged off by rude people that really don't give a shit if you walk out as I did. read more

This place had amazing food! I forgot to take pictures! I had a bowl with chicken. I liked the added pepitas in it. The salsas are awesome! They have about 8 or so. The chips are homemade and fresh. My husband had the ground beef tacos which were very flavorful. My daughter loved her tacos too. I tried the margarita and it was a decent size and good mix for 8.99. The horchata was creamy. The staff were very friendly. You order on a device and then they call your number. The place was busy on a Saturday night at 6. Its decor is cool with intentionally looking like you are in an old cafe. I highly recommend. read more

They have a salsa bar and anywhere with a salsa bar is a place I want to be. On top of that, it's a really great salsa bar. The chorizo and cheese is amazing and the California burrito with extra steak was exactly what I needed. It was big enough that I actually had to save some and it was still good the next day. It paired perfectly with the chipotle mayo. I'll be back. read more

Really just not good. Yeah they have 6 salsas but they are all bland and oddly sugary. The steak tasted like it was infused with plantains or something...can't explain it, was also sugary and weird. Possibly one of the worst meals I've eaten in 51 years, couldn't even finish it, not because I wasn't hungry, but because it was just really bad. read more

I was there this past Friday night. First off the food was overpriced. I got the taco dinner(steak) and the quesabirria taco dinner. He said the steak was premium that's why it cost so much smh. The steak was far from premium!! And the quesabirria tacos was not good!! Neither was the rice or beans!! both was kind of cold! I've had better at other taco locations for less money. For that price you could get better tacos anywhere else or save your money!! And at this location the inside of the restaurant is falling apart!! They have the ordering menu hanging right above where you have to order and the menu fell off the screws or hooks and hit my girlfriend in the head. They said sorry but sorry ain't good enough!! because if I hit them in the head and said sorry. you think they will like it!? I wouldn't recommend this taco spot to nobody!! because there food isn't good!! It's cold!! and they have bad service!! its overpriced and the inside of the restaurant is falling apart!! Don't go!! There's a lot more better tacos out there people. Don't be fooled!! This is not an authentic restaurant!! read more

The food was delicious! Service was great and friendly! The decor very nice! Definitely recommend this place!

Tacos and salsa bar are the only thing worth coming here for. Quesabirria tacos are not authentic, soft and not crispy. We had a variety of al pastor, shrimp, steak and ground beef tacos. Al pastor tacos may the better choice to fulfill a craving. Horchata was eh... but you can count on the bottled coke option! The Oreo paleta was not good either. read more

They are not accommodating to food restrictions whatsoever. We were told they could switch out the cheese and then they let us know after we pay on the kiosk they can't, this leads to at least a 15 minute conversation about switching out the cheese and nobody knew what they're talking about. It was insane. Finally, after this huge debacle, they start making it WITH cheese. I then proceeded to watch the woman scoop queso onto it and then scoop it off with her hands, pretending like it never happened. Sad that they don't understand dietary restrictions and think they can just scoop things off... You never know someone situation so this is something they should take serious. read more
