After many years of hearing about this place and driving past it countless times, I finally decided…read moreto give Las Tóxicas #2 a try. I went in with genuine excitement and high expectations, which honestly made the disappointment hit even harder. Let's start with the basics--if you're going to advertise items on your menu, they should actually be available. Being told there were no tortas right off the bat was frustrating. It may seem like a small thing, but it sets the tone. It makes you question how organized or consistent things are behind the scenes. I ended up ordering the nachos with elote, thinking it would be a safe choice. Unfortunately, they were anything but impressive. The cheese lacked flavor and had that low-quality, almost artificial taste that just doesn't sit right. Nachos are supposed to be indulgent and satisfying--this felt like an afterthought. Then came the elote placed in the middle, which should have been a highlight. Instead, it was one of the biggest letdowns. It was very clear that the corn had been frozen at some point. The texture was off, and the flavor just wasn't there. Elote should be rich, creamy, tangy, and full of life--this was bland and forgettable. Beyond the food, the atmosphere didn't help the situation. The music was extremely loud--to the point where it was hard to even focus on the meal or have a conversation. So i opted to take it to go. There's a difference between creating a vibe and overwhelming your customers, and this leaned heavily toward the latter. What really makes this disappointing is the time I waited to try this place. When you build something up for years, you expect at least a decent experience. Instead, it felt like nothing was executed with care--from the menu inconsistency to the food quality to the overall environment. This one genuinely hurts to write because I wanted to like it. I wanted to walk out recommending it. But based on this visit, it just didn't deliver. Definitely not worth the wait, and unfortunately not a place I'd return to. The story of Las Toxicas is beautiful, and maybe atone point it was awesome, but as of now, it let me down. They have to get it together and when I return in a few months, i can rewrite my review. But this is my raw review today as you all know, I don't take my reviews lightly.

Pretty cool spot on 47th and Kedvale…read more The story is touching on how this came about 2.5 years ago. We met Teresa the owner. Her mom was a street vendor for so many years and then they started their business in their home and now they have this local business. Happy it's 8 minutes away from where I live. It's a very small place but I think it looks small bc of the giant Teddys bears . The service is good. It gets full but there's enough staff to prep food, desserts and corn on the cob and drinks. I ordered the ELOCHETOS. I was able to finish the corn on the cob but not the extra corn on the side. Maybe if I was on empty I'd would have eaten it all. It wasn't as spicy as I hoped but it was not bad. My sisters orders so many other things. I'll post them now. I came at 7 pm on a Monday and it was packed Seating is limited so come before 6 pm to get a seat.

The service at this food truck was extremely friendly and did a great job explaining the crave bar…read more $6 is a little steep but reasonable. The chocolate was absolutely delicious. I thought the vanilla ice cream was a little plain but I don't know if I would want it anymore flavorful because it may be too much. The stick is a pretzel covered in caramel and chocolate. It gets a little messy! It tasted pretty good. I would have to say the chocolate on the bar was my favorite part. The crave bar is good to try at least once but I don't think I'll crave it all the time.

Most truly disgusting pancakes I had ever eaten. They had my review I had written previously…read moredeleted somehow. I wonder how they did that since I had pictures of the pancakes and everything posted with my review showing I had actually eaten here. The reason Yelp stated my review was deleted was that I had not actually had the restaurants food before, even though I had, and even posted pictures. It makes no sense. I really hate to say only bad things about a restaurant since I know how much hard work goes into running a restaurant, but this place does not value their customers nor do they value basic food decency. I wish I hadn't deleted the pictures of the food I had taken so I could post them, but why would I keep pictures of food I hated after I posted the review? Makes no sense.

We had this food brought to us from a vendor for a meeting…read more The pancakes and some pecan banana thing were awful plus The pecans were stale. Eggs and the bacon, we're good Fresh fruit was really good too The French toast was just ok.

Catering Review -…read more Overall: A very so-so slider experience. Nothing great, nothing terrible. Surely better fresh off the truck. The good: The meat on the sliders were really tender and cooked well. And they were hearty. Some of the biggest sliders I've had in awhile. And the catering options are vast. Tons to choose from. The Greek salad was also great and refreshing. Surprisingly, the bacon cheese one was the best. The not-so-good: Most of the sliders were soggy and lukewarm or cold, which really hindered the experience. The mac was nothing memorable.

Summary: Cute…read moregirls, Cute Truck, Average Sliders. Sliders are $3.50 a piece, which seemed on the expensive side quite frankly, especially considering you probably need 3 of them to feel full (unless you are a small to medium sized woman). I think i could have eaten 4, but i was only looking for a snack. I had the steak Slider and the Chicken Slider. The Steak slider was good, but you could tell the bun had been sitting for a little while (points for the pretzel bun). The chicken slider was more like a mini chicken sandwich. I don't think i would order that one again. It just didn't impress. I actually think this place should be called the Mini Sandwich Ride, because these really aren't sliders. Don't think I'd rush over there, especially because its just another average food truck in Chicago. Maybe when Chicago allows trucks to cook on site as opposed to preparing elsewhere and then keeping warm will the trucks start to impress.

A mainstay at Maxwell Street Market, this blue truck is a welcome sight on each visit. Reasonably…read morepriced at $1.50 each, these churros are usually fresh out of the fryer. I have a routine at Maxwell Street. I place my order at Rubi's and head directly over to this truck while they work on my order. My go to is a vanilla filled churro to nosh on while I wait for my Rubi's order to be ready. One day, I hope to have enough stomach capacity to discover what a churro sundae could be. The sundae is priced at $3.50. Like the rest of the market, prices slowly rise over time. Churros were $1 years ago upon my inaugural visit to the truck.

My partner raved about how good his was and that it was full of potatoes and shredded chicken. Mine on the other hand was not. It was almost like I had a totally different pie. Mine had three pieces of skin inside (see below). The first piece came out of the pie in a bite and I asked my partner if he had any on his...he did not. I ended up with three pieces of skin that big in the pie with little shredded chicken and no potatoes. Needless to say this grossed me out. I won't be seeking these pies again.

Each bite had so much delicious flavors going on! It was impossible not to love! What a comforting sandwich! Next time I would love to try the Mac and cheese grilled cheese!
