Mexican Cuisine
If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.
Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.
Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.

I passionately pride myself on eating Mexican food. I actually just got back from Mexico City one month ago. As you can imagine, I indulged in great food there. With all that said, Los Burritos has the best Mexican food on the planet.

Would have given it 5 stars except my BF's enchiladas were made with chicken instead of the ground beef he requested. He opted to eat it rather than send it back. It was quite tasty with the mole sauce and rice/beans on the side. My steak burrito was hearty and hot. I could only half but the bright side is I have lunch for tomorrow! Free chips and free refill on the horchata on dine in only. Their salsa is hot. TIP: although they have table service, you still go pay up at the counter when you are done. When we got done, there was a rush of people so checking out took a while as we waited in line again after customers who were ordering.

As a college student, Its really hard to find really great places to eat on a budget. Los Burritos is delicious and authentic for a reasonable price, and is also great when you're in a hurry because the food comes out fast! Being a vegetarian can make going out to eat difficult at times because not everywhere has vegetarian options, but Los Burritos has DELICIOUS veggie burritos! Also, they give you complimentary chips and three types of salsa which is always a plus. My boyfriend got a steak burrito and a beef taco and said it was some of the best meat that he's eaten in a while and it really added to the taste of his food. All their appetizers are around $1-3 and their food is an average of $6. Such a great hidden treasure near barrington road.

My husband and I go to this restaurant almost once a week- we normally have a great experience and love the food. This time, though, totally different! First of all, for a fast casual Mexican restaurant, it took over 20 minutes to get our food (tacos-nothing too elaborate). Then my husbands horchata tasted strange like bleach. When he asked the cashier if he could switch to diet coke she literally sat there and argued with him!! Seriously? Are you that hard up for money that you can't spare a diet coke when your horchata tastes like bleach?! Totally annoying way to ruin our dinner.

As a regular, I am sad to remove stars from this place. However, I have had a few negative experiences which reflects my demotion. Overall the food is consistently great, thats not the issues. The negatives are: 1. I have found a piece of hair in my taco - not once, but twice. One was a short white hair. It made me lose my appetite after that incident. 2. I always call my order in ahead of time. If Dahlia and the regular woman running the cash register with her are not working, I am guaranteed to have my order wrong. I get the same thing EVERY time. I order 2 Taco Specials, steak. That means 2 dinners with 2 tacos. EVERY time she puts me down for 1 taco special (which has 2 tacos, rice, and beans). Even when I assure her i want 2 dinners, she can never get this correct. Pick up my order is never as easy when these two women are working. It gets extremely frustrating because I've been there when they have messed up other customer orders. The entire finding a hair in your taco has kind of left me scarred. This place was my weekly taco spot... but I'm sadly inclined to look elsewhere.

I love finding really good authentic places, and thanks to Yelp I found Los Burritos. This small restaurant is located in a small strip mall, it doesn't look like much from the outside, but they serve delicious food and have very reasonable prices. When I walked in there was a large family having dinner with several young children, and several other diners also eating in. I placed my order at the counter and took a seat at one of the booths where I was promptly served fresh chips and salsa, they were good but the chips could have used a bit more seasoning and flavor. I had the Carne Asada which was served with a fresh side of guacamole, refried beans, rice, 2 small onion bulbs, a cheese tortilla and huge cut of churrasco - it was delicious. Everything tasted so fresh and full of flavor. Since I had read several reviews recommending the tacos I also tried the pork and carne tacos, they were equally fresh and delicious. At first I have to admit I was a bit concerned about the quality due to the unassuming location, however the reviews did not steer me wrong. As I enjoyed my delicious dinner I observed many people coming in to get orders to go, clearly a busy place even though it was a Monday night. The service was very friendly and attentive, they kept coming around asking me if I needed anything and clearing plates. I had a great experience and highly recommend Los Burritos if you are in the area.
(4)John E.
This is by far and consistently the best late night Mexican food chain I can think of. They actually take the time to make the food look nice on the plate. And it tastes awesome. Fair prices, plenty of seating, and the bathrooms are actually clean. If this place was a little more local I'd be a regular. Me encanta!
(5)Jose J.
I can't speak for the rest of the food, but the Tortas de Milanese are the best Tortas I have ever ate:) one time I had nachos and I got sick.. I just keep going back because of the Tortas

First visit here was a last minute decision. We are trying to find places closer to home that we like besides Chipotle. This place definitely falls into a similar price category as Chipotle and its REAL Mexican food. We have only order steak burritos from here so I'm really only allowed to review on the burritos and the restaurant itself. I have driven past this place a million times and I still can't believe we JUST started going to this place. We walked in, not knowing what to expect. We each ordered the steak burrito and I got a side of rice. We took the food home to eat and thoroughly enjoyed every bite. We have been back a couple times since our first visit and the food has been fairly consistent. There sadly has been one time we brought them home and they were very greasy. I was not a fan. When we got toward the bottom of the burrito, it was a pool of grease. I get that these things can happen, but it was not just a little. It was a lot of grease. We will totally be back but it may be only for a four meal. We'll have to see!
(4)Michael V.
I always enjoy their chimichangas dinner. It has great flavor and thier red hot sauce is very unique in taste. The service is not the best when they are really busy so I suggest you order as soon as you sit down.
(4)Ashley L.
Great place for cheap & good quality Mexican food. Chips and salsa are free for dine in only and your waitress will not bring your check to you you have to go up and pay yourself. Needs some remodeling maybe more updated stuff. Also sometimes wish it was a bit bigger. But overall good place.
(4)Michelle F.
I can literally see this place from my house. Now that I say that out loud, I wonder why I don't go more often!! They have really, really good food for prices that aren't ridiculous. This ain't your normal taco bell, here, people. Honestly, it's probably cheaper than TB, but I digress. My friend picked this up for us one night on her way over. She said it took FOR.EV.ER to get the food, and it wasn't that busy. That's a double-edged sword. Because on the one hand, if you're just there on your lunch break for a quick meal, it might not be as quick as you need it to be. However, it's easy to see how freshly the food is prepared--I would rather have that than something that isn't as fresh and sloppily put together. I ordered a taco salad and a torta with the breaded steak. The torta was ok--it served its purpose, but I really enjoyed the taco salad. Everything was so fresh and well done. The shell that it came in was really great--it was flaky but not greasy and it held all of the ingredients in well. I also tasted my friend's chicken taco, and it was SO good. The chicken was even better than you would expect. It was like pulled chicken. YUM! I will definitely be back over and over :)
(4)Noe S.
Very good Mexican food for the suburbs at least. They're open very late which is a plus. Their entire menu is consistently good. The service is great as well. The ladies try to be prompt and friendly. It can get a bit messy at times. They could keep the place cleaner.
(4)Kevin W.
Great Mexican food! Been going here since high school with my homies. The quesadillas (chicken/steak) are phenomenal and my favorite item on the menu. I've gone into this place wasted and as sober as a bird. Los is acceptable at any time of the day/night.
(4)Noel P.
Feeding crew. This place is old school, great food reasonable price. Have always been taken care of. Only thing even if you come there 4 times a week don't expect any kind of discount. But it is worth it.
(5)Jenny T.
WOW... this place has the best burritos I have ever had!!! I also like that their salsa has a good flavor, you can really tell that the salsa is made fresh daily! I would highly recommend Los Burritos to anyone in the Streamwood area.
(5)Danielle S.
I came here the other night because my friend swore that this place has the BEST tacos, so of course I had to come. This is a pretty small joint, there is definitely room to sit and eat or you can take it to go. They have a decent sized menu - I thought it was pretty comparable to most Mexican restaurants I have been to. Everything is very simple and self-explanatory. The first thing I noticed - this place is dirt cheap. Awesome! I ordered 3 tacos and a horchata for $8. I'll take it! Not to mention free chips and salsa. You definitely get your money's worth here and then some! I absolutely needed to get a horchata, because you can't get real horchata anywhere else! It was exactly how I had pictured it! The tacos were very filling - just the right size and right amount of filling. I thought the meat was seasoned perfectly - I got steak and chicken tacos. My friends were ravings about the chorizo and burritos as well. We all finished everything on our plates - so it must be pretty good! I would definitely come back.
(4)Jay Y.
Great steak burrito suizo! The cheese didn't look melted enough but I was quite mistaken lol
(5)Eric C.
Very good authentic Mexican food! They are opened late, which is nice for the late night snack. Food is made quickly and the portions are generous. Definitely love this place!
(4)Nicole M.
It was midnight and had just finished writing a paper for school and was meeting a friend for a late night food run. I have never been here before but he swears by it. Since he is a regular here he just went in and ordered and we went home to eat. Portion size is good. More than most places but not so much that you are overwhelmed. The food was hot even after driving home. The fold itself was good. I have had better in town but it was almost 1 am and this was the place that was open. At 1 am again I would eat here but earlier I would go somewhere else.
(3)Marley Jo C.
Yo, so Los Burritos is off the chain. Here's the thing; I love the food and I think it's a little ghetto that they give out ketchup packets instead of ketchup bottles but at the end of the day they're my first choice for tacos if I'm drunk or high or whatever. They usually and almost always have lengua One time some bitch spilled food all over me. Swear to .. if I had been with the guy I liked I would have slapped you and asked for my money back. But I still tipped your stupid ass cuz I'm not like that. Oh, their salsa and chips are flame. I wish they had different types of tortilla chips to choose from and when you ask for red and/or green salsa for your tacos they always give you the one that's running out. Like wtf do you keep refilling the same bottle till it cracks or someone steals it?
(3)Norbert S.
The best place around! Obviously the food has to be great to warrant 5 stars, but this particular location is also extremely friendly and checks up on you throughout your meal. Never not satisfied here.
(5)Ryan C.
The chicken flautas and the chili rellenos tacos were great. Steak was not as fatty/tough as most places around. Not too greasy either.
(4)Sheeka J.
Mediocre Mexican food chicken tacos were not flavorful much more Americanized salsa was weak no flavor what so ever beans were bland only reason I'm giving it a 1 star is because they are open late and I didn't wanna go to Taco Bell but now I kinda wish I did lol
(1)Alexandra N.
This place is amazing. I run the Chipotle on Barrington/Schaumburg and I have to say for a little more in price this place is awesome. Authentic delicious food, it's no wonder it's always packed with people. Great hours, some where to go late besides McDonalds and Taco Bell. They are always very welcoming and polite even though they often may not completely understand us. There is a little bit of a wait time for the food but that's because they are making it in smaller quantities per order. (and if you really hate the wait just give them a call and they will make the order for you) The guacamole is amazing, and they know the messiness of the tacos so they automatically double wrap them for you. All in all this place is a gem that more people should definitely know about. As far as the cleanliness, yeah it might not be up to our standards compared to corporate restaurants that we often goto. But for being individually ran they are nothing as bad as some I've seen at some McDonalds or Taco Bells.

I haven't been here in some time, but I felt the urge to write a review anyway. Back when I used to be dropped from the night shift early (around 11pm/12 am), I would sometimes swing by here on the way home. It's as genuine as Mexican food as you can get; makes me feel ashamed that I used to go to the Taco Bell close by. I had no idea this place was open so late until I saw a bunch of cars out in front and all the lights were on. Because of the late hours, there is a security guard at the door. But he doesn't bother me; if anything, I'm comforted that the employer gives a hoot about safety in the area. My staple has been the chicken burrito meal. It's not bursting with flavor, but it tastes homemade and is very filling. Oftentimes I just eat half and save the other for later. The horchata is very good, but it disturbed me a little when I watched it being ladled out of a dirty white industrial bucket stored in the fridge.
(4)Aaron K.
I've been a regular customer for years. Great service, reasonable prices and great food! Try their green hot sauce, it's delish. When you eat in, you get free chip and salsa too! Love this place!
(5)Donna R.
Nothing better than finding a decent and cheap Mexican joint. Food is incredibly cheap, but its nothing gourmet. Dishes are simple, but everything is authentic. Loved my Pork Taco dinner, and my husband enjoyed his Chorizo Burrito. We didn't eat inside the restaurant, and just opted to take it home, we waited probably 5 minutes and everything was super fresh. We were also asked what kind of salsa we would like to take home, nice perk there.
(3)David N.
This place should be your go-to spot for Mexican food in this area, Period. Affordable and tasty. Try their beef tongue tacos ranchero style and be amaze.
(4)Joanna A.
This is my new taco stop. This place has tons of people coming and going. It's the best kept secret because people know it's good. I enjoy the Steak and Chicken Tacos. Someone commented on the Horchata below. They make every thing clean and fresh. I was bewildered by what the reviewer meant by a bucket? Its a clean white large container with a white measuring cup for pouring. It was a good mild flavor. I did order a steak burrito there before and as another reviewer said, the burrito wasn't good the beans were way over-salted and the steak was too tough to chew. I saw other comments on staff. I think they just want to take your order and do their job. Everyone there seemed calm and just doing their work. For the price you can go in and get some great tacos. Better stop there instead of Taco Bell. It will be money better spent for the value.
(5)Tatiana G.
There Tortas are the bomb!

Amazing burritos. Late night options and always excellent food. Always impressed with the quality of food and late hours

Los Burritos Tapatios in Streamwood is a restaurant in the small chain of Los Burritos Tapatios family of eateries around Chicagoland. This particular Los Burritos is fairly small with a few tables to eat at, but that seems to be a more popular place late at night and with customers carrying out orders. Los Burritos Tapatios has a diverse menu of Mexican dishes, these includes Burritos, Taco's, Torta's and even breakfast dishes such as Huevos con chorizo. As far as the food I receive, it's always excellent, giant and flavorful burritos with soft cheese, and nicely grilled meat, bean dip and lettuce. Tortas with a mountain of flavor not only in the cheese, meat, and lettuce, but in the bread as well. I recommend trying the chicken variations of their primary entrees as the chicken is delicious. If you go in to sit down and eat, chips and salsa are provided. The quality of both the chips and the salsa are excellent and are a perfect compliment to their primary food items. The food at this particular Los Burritos Tapatios is slightly different than what's been found at the Glen Ellyn location which I've reviewed previously. The salsa is a little hotter, the way the meat is prepared seems a little different leaving it with a slightly different texture. It is however every bit as good as the previously reviewed Glen Ellyn location. For breakfast, lunch or dinner this is a great place to stop.
(5)Stacy M.
This is a great late night taco place. Or even an evening dinner taco place. Nothing out of the ordinary, but definitely not the bland americanized taco places that seem to be in a lot of places. Been here at 2 AM getting it to go and had the tacos at 6 PM for dinner. Equally good both times. The green sauce is, as usual, pretty good. Probably wouldn't be my first thought of where to go, but if it was late night or I was in the area I'd go back again in a heartbeat.

Placed an ordered over the phone because someone I know told me that the food was great! When I got there, i couldn't believe how dirty the place was. I was a little reluctant to enjoy my order considering this establishments appearance, but I figured I already ordered so here we go. When I got home, my order was wrong-and I'm sure their menu said giant burrito, but it was more like a wrap with burnt meat in it. My other order was made with chicken, when I ordered steak. I called to advise them that not only did they biff my order, but their food was inedible. I was yelled at over the phone that they didn't make this mistake and they refuse to take back their garbage food and refused to refund my money. I will never be back to this disgusting place. You only have one chance to make a first impression on a potential regular customer. There's plenty of other places to eat around town with great customer service (panchos on Higgins! We will never stray again!) I'll tell everyone to keep there distance from this shit hole!!!!!!
(1)Carlo S.
I've driven by the place time and time again and finally decided to stop in. I ordered a burrito and chips to go. I must say I was disappointed. The meat inside the burrito was on the cold side and it tasted greasy and quite strong, like if it had been sitting around for a few hours. I had to throw out the salsa, not because it was hot, but because of the flavor. The service was nothing to write home about. Maybe I'll give it another shot some day as a sit-in and try the regular food. But for today, and for burritos I'll stick to Chipotle's.
(2)Erin R.
Amazing food they will even do super frys which is basically all you find on nachos on top of French frys. They Mexican pizza is to die for!
(5)Jennifer P.
Best tostadas, best burritos, best tasting Mexican food in the area by far. I always order for pickup every weekend
(5)S K.
Hands down best Mexican food around! Wife and I come here on a weekly basis. They are open very late so after drunken nights, this is the spot to be! Burritos are huge. Need to try the red soup that the locals seem to be eating.
(5)John S.
Excellent burritos! The steak has just the right amount of seasoning. Value for the price cannot be beat. Where it is located there are over a half dozen taquerias and Mexican restaurants, and I drive by at 4 of them to come here every time!
(5)Gary M.
Great burritos and tortas. Their Horchata is the best I've had outside of Mexico.
(5)Greg L.
I cannot add too much to what already has been said but I will keep this simple...the best darn Mexican food that I have had in some time! I have been there three times since March and I wish I would have gone there tonight! I cannot say it is kid friendly unless the kid enjoys that food... IF you like good fresh Mexican food, this is the place and the staff there are friendly and want to be helpful. Go soon!
(5)Peter K.
After seeing all the raving reviews for this place, I had to check it out. My rating is 4 stars but I really want to give it 3.75 stars because it doesn't quite hit the 4 for me. What puts it over the top though is it's a cheaper Mexican place that goes beyond what other Mexican places offer in the area. PROs - Good value for the food. The giant burritos are about the same as Chipotle size and only cost $6.06 including tax. - The grilled steak giant burrito is a great fusion of flavors. My first bite into it brought a smile to my face, reminding me of all the awesome California Mexican food I've had in my life. However, the taste doesn't really grow on you. It stays the same throughout. - The free chips are for dine-in only but is a great sign that it's authentic. - They're fairly fast. The next time I order, I will do it by phone, though it only took them 5 minutes to get the food out. It's not "fast food" but it's speedy in how they make it. - The menu is simple, easy to understand. - The service is fast, and they are very accommodating if you want to sit, dine in, or just take your order to go. CONs - The taste isn't the best I've had. It was good but not excellent. The burrito had a 60% meat to 20% rice/beans to 20% cheese ratio. I'd prefer it balance out with a little less meat. But being my first time, I'll try asking for that next time. - The place is very clean, but does have that odor of cleaners around. I'd prefer not to smell that but at least it's clean :) Overall, it's definitely worth the shot that everyone's raving about! Try it!

Love that they're open really late. Delicious chicken flautas.
(3)Nelson M.
Restaurant Review muy sabroso! I don't speak a lot of spanish but I can say that the food was delicious. I didn't have high expectation for this small restaurant that I have driven by at least a 1000 times since I have lived in the suburbs. When you enter, you are greeted by a large menu over the order counter that has many tasty mexican specials from burritos to tortas to enchiladas. There are also the more complete dinners. I ended up ordering a "giant" steak burrito and chips/salsa. The burrito itself by no means is giant, more like "average size smaller than chiptole", but the beef is perfectly seasoned and tender. This made my taste buds dance! I was expecting to pay 2.xx for my chips and salsa, but I didn't realize that if you eat in, the chips are free. For 6 dollars, this was a worthwhile quick mexican meal. FYI just as "Edward M." said you can sit down and wait for the waiter to come up with the menu as well. Pro- fresh ingredients, flavorful steak burrito, free chips/salsa for dine-in orders, friendly service (they didn't even cheat me out of 2 dollars when I ordered the chips Con- "giant" burrito really is a medium size burrito, check out my picture if you don't believe me Hidden deal- check out the lunch specials torta, fries, and drink for 6 dollars
(4)Daniel L.
Disgusting... This place is filthy! Tables are dirty with trash all over them. Here's some advice, if you get a drink then make sure it's in a to go cup because the cups aren't cleaned well. The cups are just rinsed in water and then given out again so make sure you get that cup to go. Everyone adores this place because they're either drunk or high, final.
(1)Edward M.
I'd been hearing about this place for a while and have been a fan of Los Comales for a long time. I finally got to check this place out. We ordered at the counter, apparently you could have just sat down and waited for a waiter. My bad. I ordered a Chorizo Giant Burrito and Horchata (rice water sweetened with cinnamon). We also got chips and salsa at the table for free, they charge if you take it out. The Giant burrito was not that giant, def not even as big as Chipotle or Los Comales but the flavors were amazing! There was just something overwhelmingly good about how the burrito was cooked and put together. It's not too expensive at 5.45. I would order it again. The Horchata was pretty good, though I was a bit leery as they pulled a ladle out and spooned it outta a HUGE bucket. It did taste pretty good though. I like the Los Comales Horchata better though. BUt same size and same price I think for it, Large for 1.85. I forget how much Los Comales charges. The Chips and Salsa were good, fresh homemade chips and the salsa that comes standard, not in the bottles is the same quality as Los Comales. Very good flavor, nice pieces of onion in it, spicy and lasting :) All in all, if you want a hole in the wall type place instead of the more restauranty setting of Los Comales, this is a great place to go. They are also open late til like 2 am most days and 4 am on Friday and Saturday. They also serve breakfast all day. Spanish TV is on so that gives you an idea that the place is authentic, which it is.
(4)James B.
Can never go wrong with quick Mexican food here! Tastes the same time after time! Been coming here since they opened.
(5)J R.
Sooo good when you're drunk. This place is open way late and worth hitting after a night of drinking. I've also eaten here sober, but it wasn't the same...
(4)Ryan H.
I come here for one main reason, I work close by. The food is ok at best to me. I've had better. I do enjoy the tacos the most. The prices are fair. It can get loud at night, and I've noticed that there is a security guard there now. I know after the bars start to close a lot of people rush here. Your best bet is catch them before dinner time, the food is better then.
(3)Dan D.
Good food, generous portions. Seemed really clean, and good hour. They have pulpo on weekends.
(4)Lisa H.
The food is good but the service is slow. Two different times it's taken 20 mins for 3 tacos. The women have a terrible attitude! Very rude. They seem very hostile when taking my order and throwing the little white bag on the counter. The mild sauce is watery. No thank you.
(1)Daniel C.
I must if went on a bad day because everything about the tacos were tasteless. It seemed like the tortillas were taken out of the packaging and not warmed. The steak was so bland. I remember having tacos here a year ago and was blowen away. The service however was so good. Wish the food could of been the same. But I will give them another chance.
(3)Maria R.
Ay Caramba! Living in Streamwood, you get your choice of authentic Mexican restaurants because of the large hispanic population. I had heard about this particular chain from a friend of mine a LONG LONG time ago, when my family first moved into the area. After reading the Yelps, I had to try it. So, today was the day! The storefront is unassuming and a part of a small strip mall where a Giordano's also resides. When you go in, there is a counter and several booths and tables. On the walls, Mexican decorations such as wooden statuettes and even a large Aztec/Mayan wooden carving hangs high on the wall. The selection of Mexican Foods ranged from your typical tacos and burritos to tortas and even menudo. So, much to try, so much I can eat in one sitting....*sigh* I went straight for their burritos, but you're looking at a taco loving gal, so, I got an order of those as well. Since I was in for lunch, I got the GIANT BURRITO SPECIAL, which including a 20oz drink. I got the grilled steak, grilled chicken burritos, and ground beef tacos. The service was prompt and friendly. I was in and out of there in no time! They asked if I wanted sauce and I said "Yes". They gave me three sauces or rather salsas in varying degrees of heat. Mild, Medium (Salsa Verde), and Hot (a picante style salsa with a kick!) So, first I split the two burritos so my husband and I could sample both the grilled steak and the grilled chicken. I went for the Grilled Steak first and it definitely ain't your Momma's Chipotle type burrito. The taste was authentic and flavorful. The texture of the grilled steak reminded me of a philly cheesesteak. It was very yummy! Now to taste the chicken, while also good, it lacked some flavor, nothing some salsa couldn't kick up a notch. :) I also tried out the ground beef tacos and it was about as yummy as the grilled steak burritos. The ground beef seasoning was nothing like I'd ever tasted in a Mexican taco, but it reminded me more of Indian spices rather than Mexican. It made the taco even more enjoyable and exotic. Suffice to say, I did not finish all of my GIANT burrito, so, I ended up putting the chicken burrito half in the fridge for later consumption. Be sure to bring your appetite when you go to Los Burritos Tapatios because you will not be disappointed. Overall, I would definitely come back to sample their more unconventional meats like the lengua (beef tongue) or even the non-meat chile relleno...chile rellenoito? :) I like how they are open very late so, if I should get an attack of the munchies late at night. Los Burritos Tapatios is there to satisfy my appetite for Mexican food.

I used to think we needed to drive into the city to get a good burrito -- until I found this place. There are many other burrito joints in the area, but this one serves lots of really good food for an amazing price. We often have enough leftovers for another meal. We usually get steak burritos with sour cream and avocado. Sometimes we will get carnitas or a torta. Equally delish, just depends on your mood.

I went here because of all the great reviews. I ordered Tacos with onions and cilantro. I drove 8 miles home and opened my order, and the tacos had lettuce, cheese and tomatos and some other stuff on it. Unedible for me. If I make the drive again and they get my order right this time, I will re-review it.

Just started coming here a few months ago and I'm happy there's a good authentic taco/burrito place in the area, only so many times I can have chipotle (which I know isn't authentic Mexican food). Anyways, they have a variety of different food on the menu but we've only tried the tacos, burritos and enchiladas. Everything so far has been fantastic! You can eat in or order to go, give yourself at least 20 minutes if ordering to go since they're always packed when I'm there. The rice and beans are great along with the chips and salsa. They have glass bottle coke and jarritos. And if you eat at the place you get unlimited chips and salsa. What can be better you ask...the fact that they're open until 2:00am Sunday-Thursday and 4:00am on Friday and Saturday!

A clean restaurant that serves real mexican food. Try the tongue tacos.

I moved to Streamwood a few years back and have pretty much tried all of the Mexican restaurants in the area. I was a little hesitant to try this place at first because it looked like it might be a chain and the food might not be good. I'm really glad I gave this place a shot because it is the best place in Streamwood. I always get the Chille Relano tacos or the milansa SP? torta and both are always really good. My boyfriend even really likes the food here and hes Mexican lol. To summarize good food good price definitely a must try you will be addicted!

For suburban Mexican food; it's one of the better options out there. Number 3 on my list for authentic like food. Guac is a little runny but otherwise we'll be back!
(4)Gina B.
So its usually hit or miss, the steak tacos are ok if ur drunk looking for tacos open late but the steak can sometimes be rubbery wich is a big turn off for me...
(3)Mike R.
Best taco stand around! Been frequenting the one in Addison for years and just moved out here and was ecstatic to find one nearby again! If you want a great burrito or other Mexican dish quick, cheap, and delicious, this is the spot!
(5)Mike S.
Excellent food, hit this place at least once a month and love it. Fair prices as well.
(4)Angelo P.
Very good Burrito Suizo de Al Pastor. Best around the neighborhood. I keep coming back because of the salsa they serve with the chips, it is so amazing. Very good horchata(rice water). Service is pretty fast too :D. Highly recommended.
(5)Bryan O.
Second best Mex restaurant in the area. Great food and good prices

Here in the land of a thousand Mexican joints it's easy to get lost in the mire of choices but for me, Los Burritos Tapatios has stolen the show. I'm not even 100% sure why, but nonetheless. My choice is their chile relleno dinner. Two massive poblano peppers stuffed with cheese, deep fried and topped with a delicious tomato and onion sauce served with beans and rice. That and a large horchata make me a happy man. Plus, they're open so, so late. I've hit them up at some really weird hours and they're always there to serve me my favorite food. I might actually try something else from there someday but in the meantime, those peppers are awesome and so is this place.
(4)Ahmed G.
I absolutely love the tacos here. I actually make two tacos out of one because they have so much meat in them. Highly recommend.

The burrito was not bad, but by no means great.

ok so I have been craving Real Tacos since we left Seattle !! and any one that knows me 4 weeks is a long time with no tacos, but getting off at midnight has made it hard to get any but my brother tells me there is a place near the house that is open late like 2 or 3 he thinks, so last night I took a drive by and Sun-Thurs its 2am and Fri-Sat 4am so we now have found a late night place for Tacos so tonight I go by and get us some Tacos, 4 carne for my partner and 4 El Pastor (Spicy Pork) for me, then the girl asks me if I want Tomatoes =, Lettuce and cheese on them WTF ? I said hell no I want Mexican Tacos if I wanted American Tacos I would of gone to Taco Bell screw that crap they asked me if I wanted hot or mild salsa and I said mild, I was expecting Salsa Verde but no I got this tomato juice that was mildly seasoned it was good but not what I am used to, also were the hell is the lime ? I had lime at home thank Jeebus and a jar of salsa Verde now the Tacos were damn good the meat was seasoned just right and they were nice and hot, and full of meat they don't skimp on the servings here, just have to make sure you know what you are ordering and I will have to ask for lime next time, also need to ask if they have pickled jalapenos and radish to cool your mouth back off

Believe it or not, the best Mexican spot in all of Chicago is right here at Los Burritos Tapatios. This is considered Mexican fast food, but damn, the food is good. I would eat here any day over a $25/plate high end Mexican restaurant. They have a full menu with Cecina tacos and camarones a la diabla topping the list as the best menu items. This place is open late, making it right up my alley. You can tell that the food is fresh, never frozen and made with pride. They have this red "chipotle" like hot sauce that I have never seen before, but is great. The food is very inexpensive. This is one of my favorite restaurants of all time.
(5)Konrad B.
Los Burritos Tapatios has officially become my favorite Mexican restaurant in the Northwest suburbs! The food is excellent, the service is great, the & the prices are cheap. I would recommend ordering the GIANT chicken burrito with cilantro & washing it down with an ice-cold Coca-Cola Hecho en Mexico (Mexican Coke). Best late-night food spot in the area! If you like Mexican food, be sure to give it a try; I'm sure that you won't be disappointed!
(5)George N.
Food was excellent and very reasonably priced! Would definitely go back again and would recommend it to anyone. The only reason i gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is the service was a little slow. The place was packed when my family went.

I'm a little wary of trying new places, but I am always on the search of the perfect steak burrito, and I think I may have found it here at Los Burritos Tapatios. The steak is perfectly seasoned, and the burrito filling is well-balanced, not too much of one ingredient. I've eaten here at least twice a month in the last year and a half, and only once was I disappointed in the food. Because my lunch break isn't long, I usually call in my order so that I don't have to wait for them to make it at the restaurant since it can take almost 10 minutes, which is ten minutes I could be savoring the food. I've tried the steak burritos at a lot of places around, and this one is still the best.

My wife and I went there several weeks ago based on the reviews here. We were very happy with our visit here. We both Chimichangas. She had chicken and I had steak. Neither of us could finish it all. There were 2 chimichangas each with rice and beans. Chips and salsa while we were waiting were good. We spent under $20 for both of us and we had enough leftovers for lunch the next day!
(5)Jessica K.
best steak nachos ever. now i'm hungry.
(5)Remy R.
Best taco joint I have been to in a long time deliciouso

Ok, let me start by saying that I only eat chicken. Now that you've probably stopped reading my review and moved on, let me add that my husband does eat meat. Still reading? Well, according to him this place is a must eat steak burrito joint! And he does get around since he usually dines at Mexican places on 18th street. He swears that they know how to layer the burrito. You know, so that you get all the fillings in one bite instead of one filling at a time. Now, hopefully you haven't given up on me because I do have something to add. I lived in Mexico for 5 months, so I do know a little about Mexican food. I will say that this is the best Mexican food that I have found in the area in the year and a half that I have lived here(and I am on a mission to find THE BEST). My only problem was that the first time that I ate it, the chicken was pretty greasy. I have been back twice and it wasn't as bad as the first time. What have you learned? Eat the steak and not the chicken if you eat both;) Good luck
(4)Danielle R.
Yum! I aways get the chicken tacos and they are simple and delicious. Basic, Mexican food that tastes authentic and fresh. Can't beat it! The prices are right too.
(4)David R.
Ironically, their burritos are NOT the best items on the menu. In order of wow factor are the steak tortas, steak tacos (onion and cilantro on corn tortillas), chips and salsa, bistec con rajas and chilequilas. OMG. I live six blocks away and go there frequently for steak tacos. They are relatively lean and divine! Prices are fantastic and they provide great service. I shamelessly promote this place to all friends. They have at least three other locations. One in glen ellyn and one in lombard?? Both on Roosevelt Rd.
(5)Grace S.
Checked out this place on a recommendation of a friend (from Cali so you know he knows gooood burritos!). The hubby and I swung by for a quick bite- it was a really pleasant surprise. The staff is very nice and friendly. The crowd is definitely a mix but the food is authentic and consistently tastes fantastic. I had tacos, the hubs had a dinner platter with steak on our first visit. Overall a good experience resulting in us as returning customers and since then, we've tried other things on the menu. Consistently good experiences!
(4)John R.
Pretty good burritos, but best part is open until 4am
(4)Beto V.
For a Mexican person this spot is meh..its plus is that its open til 4. the food gets the job done but will leave u missing your moms cooking:/
(3)Dave W.
As a huge fan of Mexican food, I love this place. I have been to most Mexican restaurants in the area and this one is far and away the best. I always call in my to go orders to avoid the wait. And they are very accurate and quick with the order. I make this place a stop at least once a week.
(5)Eman A.
This place is awesome for a late night snack. We've only gone here after midnight. It's nice because it is a sit down place that's not fast food. It's decent mexican food for the price. I've had the avocado tostadas there and the steak tacos. My hubby's had the shrimp fajitas and the breaded chicago (milanesa i think) and it's been good. One of my friends got the tongue tacos and although I'm not a fan, she loved it. I always judge a place by their horchata too and theirs is very good.
(4)Jeff T.
Good, reasonable mexican food. Had Lunch special under $6 each (I can't remember if it was 5.45 or 5.95 but wife had taco, i had burrito).
(4)Amanda S.
I have to agree with the previous yelp reviewer. This place is cheap, the service is good and the employees are always friendly. It's clean and everything I've had there is good, the nachos are especially good and the portions are huge. I may be embellishing on how good this place is however, due to the trips I've made there @ 1,2,3 or so in the morning. Still, any place where I can get away with shoveling nachos in my face while shoeless is a-ok.
(3)Filippo C.
Best mexican food in area hands down!
(5)Ajay S.
Went here recently and wasn't too impressed. My wife tried the enchiladas and I had the taco's. My dinner was fine, but her's was nothing to write home about. Usually, enchiladas are cooked, but these we're not. Also the floor was not clean and my daughter slipped on the floor.
(2)Scott G.
Exactly what I want from a burrito joint. Good, authentic food that's not at all expensive and open late. I usually stick to the steak burrito but the chorizo tacos are like candy! This is one of those places that I start to crave anytime it's been more than a week or so since my last visit.
(5)Emily C.
This review will be very short because the equation is very simple. It's CHEAP. The food is GOOD. (I recommend the steak burrito. The meat has a fantastic flavor!) Oh yeah, and it's open 'til 4 a.m. on the weekends. What's not to like?!??
(5)Aimee C.
Love this place! It's probably not the very best Mexican food I've ever had, but for the price, it's pretty darn close! I always get the same thing: burrito with beans, rice cheese, lettuce, and tomato. (I don't like meat in my burritos.) It's alwasy fabulous! The people in there are really nice too! I always recommend it to my coworkers and friends!
(5)Samantha C.
Love this food!! 2 chicken tacos and a cheese quesadilla and I'm all set! great price, nice staff and fast service considering they truly make it while you wait. Stay there to eat and enjoy the free chips and salsa!
(5)Trent S.
People in the "know" say you can judge the quality of a restaurant by the cleanliness of its restrooms. Not only is the food fantastic and price affordable, but Los Burritos passes the restroom test as well.
(5)Hans H.
This place is awesome. Cheap, excellent, and delicious mexican place that doesn't pretend to be some upclass trendy mexican place. This place is about the food and it shows. They have the unique tacos meats like tripas and beef tongue as well. Try their posole on weekends!
(5)Ryan F.
Found this place recently after living in the area my whole life. Man was I missing out. Excellent food. The burritos are huge which I like. The tacos have two tortillas each. I've only had the chicken and pork but I recommend both. The meat has great flavor. You have to get the chips and guac too.
(5)John S.
Good basic greasy burritos. Service is good always the same people working.
(4)E L.
There is little not to like about this place. Everything is great, including the restroom as some of the yelpers can attest. Have been dining here for the last few years, I find the taste, quality and quantity to be consistently outstanding. What's to look for? Go for the posole and on weekends, menudo. But topping the list of awesomeness is the tripe tacos. It is out of this world. Ask for crispy because this place prepares it like none in the burbs. Great price, friendly fast service and (clean bathroom) and awesome authentic Mexican food at almost all hours.
(5)Yvette C.
super affordable & friendly. tacos, enchaladas, horchata oh my! so delicious. and they are open ridiculously late on the weekends, score!
