Tacos
Divya J.

The space has a really nice atmosphere and a fun, casual vibe. The tacos were decent, although some flavors stood out more than others, but pretty fast service. Overall, a nice spot to grab a quick bite, with the ambiance being the highlight!

Cheesy Brisket Taquitos and brisket taco
Audra H.

Stopped here while staying at the moxy. This place has some great options albeit limited options! We had their corn and it was to die for! It's in a cup, not on a cob. It's cheesy and delicious! I also had two crunchy rolled tacos that tasted amazing. They were so flavorful! I even bought sides of green sauce and sour cream to dip them in. They were amazing. My partner had a carnitas taco and I loved it too (I had a bite!) Highly recommend you come here!!

Breakfast tacos

Absolutely fantastic tacos. If this place was in Cleveland....it would easily be more popular than Barrio. I've stayed at the hotel attached several times and this is always reliable late night eat. The menu has actually expanded w walking zombie taco. I wish I took a pic of the menu but if you are in the area I highly recommend stopping by. They also have tall boy beers to buy. Nachos w pulled pork were pretty great. Food comes out fast and hot. Snag your food and eat right in the hotel lobby which is more of a bar than a typical hotel lobby. If you've stayed at the Moxy Chicago you'll know what I mean. I'll be back Moxy and Z Taco....ill be back

A small place located inside the Moxy hotel. You can order from inside or outside of the hotel. There are kiosks to place your order. There are a couple of small tables to sit at outside. We ordered nachos. They were very good. Prices are a bit higher, but it's because of the location. Service was quick. I would go there again if I am staying in the hotel.

We came here for some nacho in a bag which was good and the fries didn't look like the one on the menu. We ate inside the Moxy Hotel which was nice, you can even order drinks at the bar and food as well at the bar as well. Being that this was inside a hotel, there's also a window outside you can order and sit outside to eat as well. The food was alright not typical Mexican foods.

While staying at the Moxy hotel we got a late night burrito, & tortilla chips with sides of guacamole, salsa, & cheese- it was excellent!

There's really no setting to speak of, since it's part of the hotel. So you eat in the hotel lobby, there's enough seats and tables though. There's no servers either, you go to the counter and order your food. The food is a bit overpriced, but you're in a hotel in downtown Chicago, so take that into account. However, the food wasn't very good either. I ordered nachos, which tasted mediocre. The tacos were ok. If you're staying in the hotel and you need quick food, it's enough. That said, I wouldn't go back since there's better choices out there.

Thick Cut Jalapeño Bacon Taco, Street Corn - IG @bougiefoodieboi
Kyle W.

I went here to try their signature taco, the jalapeño bacon taco, and I used the yelp check on offer for a free side of street corn. The bacon taco is good but didn't have the texture or substance of a thick bacon, but the other ingredients meshed together produced a delicious taco. However, for $7, I expected more than what I see as the 1 taco does look kind of sad for the price. The street corn is hearty with cotija and other ingredients, but it was not too saucy so I got to enjoy the entire bowl without feeling too bloated. At $7, this was a decent price. This is conveniently located at the Moxy so I guess you pay for convenience, but there is a good amount of Mexican food around River North area at various price points if you want to venture further.

Thick Cut Jalapeño Bacon Taco
Stacey H.

Heard about the Thick-Cut Jalapeno Bacon taco here but it was disappointing. While the bacon itself wasn't that bad, the rest of the ingredients were pretty bland/there wasn't much other flavor (sans the taste of thick cut bacon). I did not taste jalapeño or even pico de gallo. It was more like regular tomato, and then the lettuce, avocado and ranch. Got the taco to-go and unfortunately when I ate it 10 mins later, the wrapping made the flour tortilla soggy and it fell apart pretty quickly. And not even visually appealing--it looked like a very sad taco (see pic). Overpriced for what it was. The decor in the Moxy, where Zombie Taco is located, was very cute for the holidays though.

Ivy I.

Their tacos get cold extremely fast because of the nature of the ingredients.. one second the taco was warm, and then all of the sudden it was freezing cold, all in the matter of just a few minutes. The brisket was gross... the fish was mid, and the only highlight I would say was the ambiance and the bacon jalapeño taco. I would literally just go back for that taco, nothing else. It is overpriced and probably not even better than Velvet Taco... Zombie Taco is located within Moxy Hotel, and their bar and the surrounding seating areas is a fun place to chat.. not too loud and good atmosphere. If you are looking for a place with average food but good vibes, then sure. But if you were looking for great food and don't even like bacon, then definitely look elsewhere because I would not get anything other than the bacon taco.

Nachos
Bertha C.

Love that this place was inside the hotel we stayed at (The Moxy). They were open pretty late which was nice. The only thing I got to try from them was their nachos and they were delicious!

All the premier dinners come with salad, cheese, fondue, and the chocolate fondue - You are just choosing what protein you would like. The Prince Geja combination has a little bit of everything. However, we most liked the seafood which includes lobster and the scallops were to die for! Also the beef also cooks well. Favorite dipping sauce included the pimento mayo, chimichurri, and garlic butter. The cheese fondue is quite rich and the bread is quite filling so maybe get as much cheese as you can on each piece of bread. The chocolate fondue, I think is actually the best course as the Belgium chocolate melts so well and has a decadent but not overly sweet flavor. It pairs well with all that is provided for dipping, which includes poundcake, rice Krispies, strawberries. They also have some liquor that they light on fire at first so you can roast the marshmallows. It is such a well thought out experience. Service flows very well from two waiters who take your order set up your fondue pots for each course, but be prepared to spend at least 2 hours on this experience. Check out the Groupon but also I read a review that they just tack on the extra $50 so it's not really too much of a savings. Not sure if this is true.

Also appreciated that they were accommodating for the vegetarian in our party. Everything except the cheese course can be made vegan friendly as well. The service was top notch! Appreciated that they called me ahead of time to confirm our reservation and ask about food allergies. All the staff was incredibly helpful and attentive. They were quick to refill items and answer any questions we had. The location is classic fondue restaurant, cozy and romantic. However, also perfect for catching up with a friend. I love the history in this place and really enjoyed the mood lighting. Pricing was fantastic for the quality of service, food, and drinks! Look forward to many happy returns!

Back Again - Gemini Pt 2, but this time for brunch!…read more I enjoyed my first dinner experience here so much last week that we had to come right back to try their weekend brunch. From the start, the hostesses were inviting and lovely. The restaurant is very pretty, warmly blending a modern style with a touch of classic French bistro elegance. I'm mostly so impressed with how versatile the restaurant actually can be, shifting seamlessly from an elegant, upscale dinner setting with its beautiful U-shaped marble bar to a bright, whimsical, and enchantingly airy brunch setting. The fully opened bifold windows are adjacent to the pergola-topped patio, letting a glorious, cascading breeze drift through the space to create a wonderful indoor-outdoor flow and a lively weekend energy. Once again, we thoroughly enjoyed everything we ordered: Super Green Vegetable Salad: The kale, broccoli, avocado, asparagus, and peas were crisp and fresh. We loved this so much during our first dinner visit last week that we had to order it again for brunch! Spectacular! Nova Lox Platter: The wild salmon topped with diced red onion, capers, and hard-boiled egg crumble, served with an everything bagel and a side of chive cream cheese, was excellent. French Onion Frittata: The rich gruyère and caramelized onions were wonderful. If you're a French onion soup lover like me, this is a can't-miss!! Definitely will be reordered and often. Fantastic! Daily Omelette: Ordered from the special menu, featuring black truffle salsa, mascarpone, and Calabrian chile honey. It was absolutely phenomenal, perfectly cooked, and the flavor combination was incredible. Our server, Sarah, was excellent and made the experience even better - we even share the same name! The management team was also incredibly warm and attentive, stopping by our table to welcome us back. Returning twice in one week says it all. This restaurant has made it into my regular rotation and is hands down one of my new favorites!

Not too shabby. I…read morelike this place for an impromptu early dinner. I've been twice and always sit outside in the patio area. The restaurant itself is pretty as is the outdoor dining area if aesthetics are important to you. Service is also great. Food wise...good portions overall. However, all I want is a little bit more: a little more butter for the delicious bread, a little more time in the oven for the Brussel sprouts to soften them up, and a little more cream to accompany the carrots. Also, a few more croutons in the Caesar salad! All that being said, the steak was well seasoned and who can ever object to a tasty side of fries? Dining here, you're getting a healthier experience as opposed to heavy seasoning, butter, sauce, etc, but it's good overall.

That is to say: I am not throwing words of praise like "one of a kind" and "phenomenal" around lightly. Both are different and still amazing. Sparrow has a vibe straight out of the 1920s. The decor, signage, use of color, and absence of screens or TV's all contribute to the theme. The music is also appropriate and plays at the perfect volume to be pleasant without forcing one to raise their voice. I tried the Green Daisy and a House Old Fashioned. The Green Daisy was boozy and had some herbaceous notes. A little tartness and a little sweetness helped balance the drink out and make for a phenomenal sipper. I loved the creativity with this one! The House Old Fashioned was also well done, assembled with quality ingredients in balance with one another. Nothing wrong with a well-executed classic. The prices are more or less reasonable considering the location and overall market, with bevies costing around $16. The bar staff is excellent! Very friendly and welcoming! Final verdict: A spot where I can say come for the drinks and stay for the vibe. It's the kind of place where walking in you are transported a century into the past. Everything about the experience, including the atmosphere, drinks, service, and prices, is calling me to return and bring some people with me.
