One of the best spots in the area! Taqueria Tejupilco is the kind of place that makes you want to come back again and again. The food was absolutely outstanding--fresh, authentic, full of flavor, and prepared perfectly. You can really taste the quality and care that goes into every order. The service was just as impressive. Everyone was friendly, welcoming, attentive, and made us feel genuinely appreciated as customers. The atmosphere is comfortable and inviting, and the entire experience from beginning to end was excellent. It's becoming harder to find places that combine amazing food, great portions, reasonable prices, and genuinely good customer service, but Taqueria Tejupilco delivers on all of it. This is definitely a hidden gem on Broadway and a place I'll happily continue supporting. If you're looking for delicious, authentic Mexican food and great service, do yourself a favor and give this place a try. Easily 5 stars and highly recommended! read more

Carne Asada is the best thing on the menu. Tortas also pretty good, chicken could use seasoning.

This burrito is a must get here. The meat tastes so good. Jr is a decent size and was made fresh to order. Definitely recommend this place!!

Coming from Texas, I've had the hardest time finding good tacos. This place transported me right back. I unfortunately have an aversion to cilantro and forgot to ask without it, but after the first bite I didn't even care it was that good. Very friendly and really quick service. When dining in you get a bottle each of red and green salsa so you don't have to ration or ask for extra, and they both taste amazing. Huge menu as well, something for everyone. read more

A staple place to add to your takeout list. The food is amazing, portions are just massive and the service never misses. Absolutely love their steak quesadilla, nachos, and tostadas. read more

This place rocks and always hits the spot !!!Some of the best food I've ever had !! Good prices , but the amount of times I come, my paychecks are hurting. Favorite item: steak burrito (super marinated and juicy) Freshest guacamole known to man! read more

I really like this place. It had really tasty tacos, great beans and decent rice and good horchata. I'm excited to try their sopes or burritos next time I am in Lakeview since this location is affordable, efficient and perfect for a quick lunch or dinner read more

Improve the food. Order the carne Asada tacos, no flavor. This place was great when it opened but now it's just a crappy hole in the wall restaurant. Do better read more

So essentially this place kind of SUCKS. Look I am not trying to be a negative person & it was Cinco De Mayo so maybe it was just because of the holiday, but we literally waited an HOUR for 7 tacos. Read that again- we waited an hour. We went so far as to ask the workers why it was taking so long and they just shrugged and then did not move our order up at all. Very small place & we suffered. The food was decent (got steak, chicken, vegetarian, tongue, al pastor) Really the only highlight was that they gave us free chips and quac (granted we did ask) So yeah I'd SKIP if I were you. Might have better luck at Caesar's down the street, which is saying something. read more

Lengua was amazing! Taco sizes were generous. There's not a lot of space for eating in. We went early enough to get a table. I took a taco home and enjoyed it the next day. Bonus! read more

Super affordable place (especially given the location in the heart of Lincoln Park) and also very delicious as well! We ordered the large chicken quesadilla (5/5), the two taco dinner with rice and beans (4/5), steak torta (5/5) and the horchata (5/5). I especially loved the chicken quesadilla as the chicken was very flavorful and cooked to perfection. It's a pretty small shop with only a total of 4 tables (2 two person tables and 2 four person tables). Very fast and efficient service as well! read more

It's a small location but the food was really good. The tacos were delicious, the nachos were on point. Overall a 5 star place

Since it's National Taco Day, it felt like the perfect time to try this new taqueria in Lakeview East. The food was fresh, tasty, and authentic. The service was efficient and the ambiance is very simple. There are a few tables for dine in, but it seems like a lot of people are doing takeout. We tried several tacos and both agreed that the carne asada was the best. The others, chicken, al pastor, birria, and chorizo were all good, too. The two salsas were very tasty and had the right amount of kick. Pro Tip: the tacos come with only cilantro and onion, so we each ordered a vegetarian taco and scooped a bit of that filling onto each of the other tacos for some additional sabor. Support your local taqueria and give these guys some love. ¡Viva Los Tacos! read more

My wife and I have been going here ever since they opened a few years ago. Honestly the best Mexican food in the neighborhood if not one of the best in the entire city. One of the sleeper items are their double cheeseburgers with fries. Burgers are to the point and well constructed and have an unctuous house sauce. Fries are battered which give them that crispy texture. I know it sounds wild but trust me, next time you want a burger, go here. But the stars of the show are the lengua and birria tacos. I usually get two of each when I go. That table against the window is my favorite spot to eat in all of Lakeview. read more

Really good tacos, especially for being in Lakeview. The Al pastor, birria, and steak were all amazing - will definitely be back!

Solid value but under seasoned and underwhelming tacos. I had the chicken, ok with the green sauce, birria totally lacking of flavor, and chorizo a touch of flavor. The tortillas also had no flavor. It was lacking so much flavored I tested my self for covid to make sure I still had my taste. read more

Excellent food--nice to see birria and lengua on the menu! The birria tacos were delicious with a generous portion of birria. A nice touch were the tortillas which tasted yummy, not like wet cardboard, The place is tiny and fills up quickly; the service was paced right, not too fast and not too slow. The prices are extremely reasonable. read more

Great tacos, great price, great service! Everyone is very friendly, the service is fast, and the food is so tasty! I recommend the lengua and al pastor tacos. read more

Amazing! So, I just left this place and I came because of the awesome reviews. The restaurant did not disappoint. I ordered al pastor, Birria, and chicken tacos. Each one was amazing and fairly priced. The tacos were filled with the right amount of meat. The al pastor and birria were my favorite. Also, the cashier was super sweet in taking my special request. read more

Arrived in Chicago and came straight from O'Hare to this place to have dinner with my family in Lincoln Park at their recommendation and it was spot on. Amazing authentic sauces and fresh home made chips. The guacamole was delicious and large to share. Everyone had a different dish and I chose the chipotle chicken tacos with lime cilantro rice and reformed beans. The portion was very nice sized and very tasty and I was very happy with my choice. Paired perfectly with an ice cold Bohemia in a frosty pint glass. Other favorites were the carne asada, chicken enchiladas, and mushroom quesadilla. Highly recommended!!! read more

It was kind of an ok delivery experience. I had a burrito. It's been too long since I had it and I can't remember details. But overall an ok meal. read more

Was craving birria tacos while visiting for the weekend and my friend said she "knew the best spot in town". We walked in and immediately the staff recognized my friend. Love a place that values and remembers their customers, especially in a larger city like Chicago. Immediately I knew this place was gonna be fire. Amazing birria tacos & quesadilla. Would recommend to anyone. read more

I feel that this place will become so popular that I will have to wait an hour to get food once everyone knows how amazing the food is here. This restaurant is so much better than so many other Mexican restaurants nearby. The place is small so I think many folks overlook it but do yourself and your taste buds a favor and get some food from here. The favors are outstanding. The memory of having the food here will stay with you so much that you will keep coming back and back. read more

We popped into this neighborhood spot because we thought the outside looked so cute with the painting. We ordered a small burrito dinner, and were charged for a large burrito dinner. The food itself was disappointing, but we were served promptly. The burrito was loosely wrapped, came apart immediately, and was very greasy. Each bite released more grease. I stopped eating after the fourth bite. The rice and beans were fine. read more

Taqueria Tejupilco - al pastor large burrito dinner - Mexican Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Quick and delicious food with decent prices and fantastic horchata. The workers are friendly, and Tejupilco has to be the best burrito place on this strip of Broadway (which is saying something, as there are at least 5 other burrito places within a .25 mile). My only complaint is that they're only open until 9, and sometimes you need a burrito after the bar! With greater hours, this place would absolutely kill. read more

Quick service, good prices, delicious food and salsas. The tacos al pastor were my favorite. The sopes and quesadillas were good too!!! read more

Loved my fish tacos - generous amount of grilled fish. The pico de gallo was a little too onion-y but still great on the tacos. Friend - a quite discerning consumer of Mexican food - had the birria burrito and was very pleased. Guac and chips were good. Fast delivery. Food was still nice and warm. Salsa rojo was pretty hot; salsa verde okay. Will order again. read more
