Pros: Fries was cooked nicely. Huge portion size. Loaded means loaded. They did not skimp with cheese and sour cream. Nice flavors, simple and comforting. Guilty pleasure. Cons: Greasy and oily AF. A little too skimp on the meat. Spanish rice can be cooked better, it was "too wet" to my liking. Still a nice spot to satisfy craving. Hope they keep the portion size! read more

The Taco Place - Loaded fries - Mexican Near Me - Dolton, Illinois

This taco place has come a long way in the last few years. It remodeled the place has a larger more comfortable feel to it. The food was just ok by my standards. The biggest negative I have to say is the greasy and sloppy manner in which food is played. Ok guys do better mainly because "Los Tacos" not too far away will be and is grabbing your customers daily. Their food is really really nice especially their steak and never greasy. I want you to stay and maybe you will. However, if you read this try to alter the amount of seasoning and grease you use serving to the community. It's big healthy and no one deserves unhealthy take out food. read more

I normally do not complain about this place. The wait time was 45 minutes tonight that was fine. What was not fine is that I spent $45 and did not get all of my food because it was all in one paper bag! A cup of corn, 4 beef tacos that were supposed to be on corn shells were put on flour shells, three steak tacos were missing only thing that was correct was the corn and the tostada. The rest of the order was incorrect! Never again will I spend money here. Tried calling the restaurant after I got home only for them to not answer! read more

This place is ok. They were pretty busy when I arrived so the woman taking orders was pretty straight to the point but not in a rude way. I do like that there appeared to be steak throughout the steak elote and it was well seasoned. I also got the taco dinner with steak, chicken, and chorizo tacos with a side of rice and beans. I was surprised to see cheese on the tacos as most other places charge extra for it. Steak taco was good, the chicken was mid, and I didn't like the chorizo one. Overall, this isn't a place I HAVE to visit again, but I'd stop by if I was in the neighborhood. read more

All my tacos were dry and i didn't eat them. I didn't appreciate that. My husband enjoyed his burrito. Maybe it was a bad night.

The steak and shrimp tacos are not as they make them out to be the steak was over cooked so the steak was hard and taste old and the shrimp has no favor and the Al pastor was the only thing that had favoring but nothing great I give this place a 4 out of 10 And I felt like I was being rushed when ordering Save your Money and go to your favorite taco spot read more

Today I went to The Taco Place in Dolton IL. I order two nachos. One with cheese and meat and one with everything except tomatoes! I get my order it's incorrectly made! I politely wait in line to just ask that my order be remade. There is a sign that says the will gladly remake or credit the order but there is no cash refunds! I get to the cashier she says the order is correct. That she took my order and that she repeated it back to me! I know for a fact I said the same thing twice because I have a child that only eats cheese and meat! So I ask to speak to a manager. The cashier offers me a refund for the portion of the order that was incorrect. I clear state that I just want it remade. The "manager" comes out 10 minutes later stating that she took my order and that it was my fault for not hearing her correctly so she will not remake my order. She then turns around to say that the kitchen is closed and that I could get cold food! I state that it was two other orders that they had just remade but she won't remake my order?! She tells me that there was only one order that was remade. She had a nasty disposition. I told her it makes no sense to refund me half and now my food is cold. I just wanted a full refund because of her approach to a customer! I do not know what she would have done to my food if she remade it even though that was not an option at 7:47pm and they close at 8:00pm. I was there for over 30 minutes! I call non-emergency to get the police there. They let her give me a partial refund and let me take home cold food. As a business owner I know that the customer is not always right but I also know how I run my business! You can not have a sign up that says no cash refund but offer a cash refund! The kicker is you refund me what you wanted not what was right. Anyone who has lived in Dolton or South Holland has eatten there. I've been going to The Taco Place for years and I've never had a bad experience until today and they will never get another dollar from me! They still gave me an incorrect order!!!! read more

Horrible customer service. The young African American lady act as if she didn't not want to be there! She was not enthused at all! She was not welcoming and seemed bothered. read more

Good tacos. Good customer service and very friendly. Try the shrimp super taco. Also they don't overcharge for using a debit or credit card

That's really embarrassing and unprofessional for a business owner to refer to a group of African American people as that horrible name! This is why some Black owned business don't get great customers, returning customer, and first time customers. I surely won't visit this establishment for his lack of professionalism, and numerous complaints regarding hair in the food, too greasy, too salty, and not worth the money! So I won't be wasting my gas, nor my time on The Taco Place!!! read more

My first time patronizing this spot today after a 13 hr flight. I ordered the 3 taco dinner with rice, black beans and avocado (extra $1.50). Got home and there was only 2 tacos and only black beans. Called and was told to bring it back which I did. I checked the "corrected" order and asked the young lady "is the avocado on the tacos or is it supposed to be on the side". She said it's on the tacos. So I took my bag and once I got home discovered that the avocado was missing again. Called back again and she said their policy is that I can come back AGAIN or it can be corrected within 24hrs. So I stated again that I had a 13 hr flight today and probably won't leave the house and asked how would this be corrected and she stated they would give me the missing avocado. What? You want me to come back for a 3rd time? Please check and recheck and recheck your order. read more

Lots of options and great customer service and staff.... Food is very good and fresh... I have been going to this place for years and all my friends love it as well.... read more

This place was a recommendation from a friend and I am so glad that they recommended this place. I have tried their Ground Turkey Tacos, Ground Turkey Burrito, Streak and Shrimp Taco, Shrimp Taco, Steak and Shrimp Loaded Fries, Ground Turkey Doritos Nacho, and Doritos Elote. Everything that I have had was good and flavorful. I am a picky eater and they cater to every removal i have made. Only Con I can put is that it can be a bit greasy. Food is great just wish it was a little less greasy. read more

The Taco Place - Jerk Plaintain Taco - Mexican Near Me - Dolton, Illinois

It's a small operation in a strip mall off Sibley on Woodlawn. If you don't know what you're looking for, you might miss it. Ended up going several times over the course of my stay. I didn't deviate much and either got turkey or chicken tacos. The first time I ordered, and likely 3rd time, everything was delicious. Nothing fancy just really good tacos. The other times it didn't even taste like it came from the same place. Seasonings were either off or none existent. I guess I kept returning in hopes it would be like the first time. It's definitely hit or miss but when it's a hit, it's good. read more

I love their tacos! The shrimp and ground beef are my absolute favorite, they're so full of meat and the perfect amount of cheese, cilantro and onions! Their strawberry and regular horchata is delicious too! read more

I complained before... OBVIOUSLY they want everyone to eat ONIONS! You can emphatically say " NO ONIONS" REPEATEDLY! They had the NERVE to get an attitude when I stressed no onions, then still put onions on the Burrito?! WTF!!! This is the 3rd F***ing time and then they have/had a problem with my requesting food compensations. Taco Place screwed up my order not 1 time but 3, how is this a debate? You can't "give" food? Bet! You lost a LOYAL customer, and I will advise anyone not to eat at this establishment! read more

The Taco Place has consistently delicious food and good prices. Definitely a regular stop for us.

The food is good however, the service is terrible!! I asked for a manager and was advised that the person that I was speaking to that takes the orders was just that. Imagine trying to speak with someone to complain about how rude the person taking your order is & learning that they're the manager lol. This business doesn't deserve your money if they can't speak to you respectfully, it's not our fault you're selling tacos and taking orders. If you don't love what you do then maybe it's time for a new job! read more

My chilli renello tacos were burnt. I was told to bring them back and they would remake them. Why would you give me burnt tacos.

Totally overated as a Mexican restaurant. I'd heard great things about this spot and set out to try them out. My first visit I grabbed a jerk steak super burrito, and a strawberry horchata. Only the horchata was noteworthy. My 2nd trip I grabbed 2 jerk chicken tacos and an elote. The tacos were WAY better than the burrito, but were missing something. They needed jerk sauce...the red/green didn't do anything for them. The elote however was very good. So after 40 bucks I can recommend the elote and horchata.... read more

I absolutely love this place the food is amazing. The line be long but it's well worth the wait.. the pork tacos are my favorite but everything is delicious here. read more

The Taco Place - a taco in a paper bag - Mexican Near Me - Dolton, Illinois

This place is really good and for a good price. good food, flavorful, good price. MY cons are 1. they charge extra for other toppings (tomatoes, onions etc) 2. they close early and not open on Sundays I def would recommend them. read more

Great food very flavorful and worth many return visits. The menu selections offer many difficult choices and that is a great thing.

The food here is okay, not really as good as people make it out to be. I got the steak & shrimp tacos, steak & shrimp corn in the cup and their "lemonade". To start their lemonade does not taste like lemonade and mostly just taste of sugar (2/10). Their steak & shrimp corn in the cup was too salty and once you get to the middle of the cup it tastes like nothing with a lot of grease sitting at the bottom (2/10). Their steak and shrimp tacos were pretty decent, just a lot of fat on certain pieces of the steak (6.5/10). However, service was great and would highly recommend ordering your food before you go. read more

This was my first time here & it was good. Beware it's a small location. So much to pick from so it took me awhile to decide. I ordered 2 shrimp tacos, chicken taco & double rice. These tacos were extremely good. Each taco had 2 shells and they were slightly deep fried. The shrimp were pretty big and seasoned good. The chicken was excellent almost taste like it was fajita chicken (maybe it was). The tacos come with lettuce, cilantro, onions & cheese. The rice was ok I had better but overall this a good place. read more

Food was absolutely delicious and the prices are extremely reasonable. This is the first Taco place that I was entirely happy with all my food! The steak was seasoned great! The toppings and meat were finely chopped and not chewy at all. The corn in the cup had the perfect amount of seasoning and Mayo and cheese throughout the entire cup. My husband really enjoyed the jerk shrimp and steak bowl too. This is one of the best Taco spots with generous portions! read more

The person who answered the phone had a nasty ass attitude & got mad because I asked her to repeat my order to make sure it was right & it was wrong when she said it so I corrected her in a louder tone, she then said you don't have to yell but yes I got the order correct I said okay thank you. Long story short I go pick up the food this bitch give me chicken tacos instead of steak & purposely put hair in it. read more

The Taco Place - a person holding a piece of food - Mexican Near Me - Dolton, Illinois

I stopped at the Taco Place based on a recommendation from someone who lives in the neighborhood. I initially had a difficult time locating it as it is around the corner from the main street, Sibley. The place is tiny...very, very small and it was very crowded. The aromas were delightful so I concluded the food was going to be very good. I ordered steak tacos two of which were the Taco specials which included fries and a drink with two tacos. The bag of fries that they give you is enough for three people and I ended up with two of those. The steak tacos were tasty but they were no where near the best I've ever had. The green sauce is very flavorful, the red sauce was just spicy. I would return if I were in the area and had to choose between the Taco Place and the nearby Taco Bell. However I would not go out of my way to revisit. read more

I'm new to this place was turned on to it by my wife, I've been here a total of 4 times, never had a problem with any food I've purchased, but the young Lady taking orders could use some customer service skills, seems angry over nothing....but that won't deter me from returning ! At least not yet...TACOS are the bomb !! read more

These tacos are amazing and the people are always nice however I've found a long strand of black hair in my taco dinner twice. Please fix this by wearing hair nets or at least pinning hair up. I would love to continue to eat here. read more
