Reviews for Taco Burrito King in Chicago, IL
Before you read this review, I want you to know that this is not satire. As far fetched as may or may not seem, this is 100%... true and I swear that there is no fabrication whatsoever. []BOOK 1[] -Prologue- This is a story I have told many times. I holdthis memory very close to my heart and will cherish it forever. It's my freshman year of college. I'm not one to stay up late(at college), but it's the week before Thanksgiving break. I'm with a few friends in their room, we're craming for our upcomingexams. -Chapter 1- The clock strikes midnight. After a few hours of studying, I explain that I'm really hungry and could go fora bite. Without any plans, we make our way to leave dorm. I guess we were making a bit of noise because someone peeks their headout of literally every other door down the hall asking "y'all getting food". By the time we make it out, there's maybe 20 or sopeople with us outside. I ask the crowd, so "what's even open right now?" In the crowd, someone says "TBK". "What's TBK" I ask"."Taco Burrito King". It was the only place open at the hour within walking distance. The crowd of us hungry college kids makeour way. -Chapter 2- I order a Junior burrito with chicken. I didn't want to risk eating something large as the crowd had givenmixed reviews about the establishment. To my surprise, the Junior burrito was quite large. I was also given two Salsas, onegreen and one red. I took one bite and was satisfied. I cannot say with confidence if the burrito was good, or I was just reallyhungry. Overall, the night was one I really enjoyed. I made many new friends, got a pretty neat college story to tell, and founda new restaurant to support me when I get hungry late at night. -Epilogue- This school year, I learned of a restaurant that wasalways there to support me. Whenever I was broke, starving, and at my worst, TBK was open and ready to serve me Read more
This place and every where around here needs to really go to the southeast side of Chicago , lil village and pilsen Mexican... restaurants to get some Pointers, rice grains were still hard with no flavor , meat (steak) no flavor. Idk how some peoplethink this is even close to good , y?all really need to go eat at restaurants at the areas above because this is horrible , Iknew when they said my order will be done in 5 mins was already a red flag Read more
Great food. Great customer service. Dude up front is a great man and whips out orders during an endless wave of people from what... I noticed. He deserves the best. Read more
Walked in and was told it would be a minimum 30 minute wait on all menu items. There was literally not one person waiting or... dining in, and there were atleast 4 staff members just standing around, yet the wait time is 30 minutes for anything. What ajoke. I get it, people call in for take out, but if that means your walk ins are last priority, don't expect to stay in businessfor much longer. Read more
Absolutely worst burrito I have ever tasted! Chicken it?s stripped or mashed instead of chucks of chicken, it had no flavor,... felt like I was chewing on plastic some strings. Also order a side of fries which I thought they would at least taste better,but naah it was even worst. They tasted like they were fried with some kind of fishy oil, maybe it was old or w.e but it wasdisgustingly horrible, don?t be like me & order from Uber eats, spent 30 dollars & they went down the drain. If you order fromthem, go inside taste the food if you don?t like it return it, it?s their policy. Read more
First time I've been here the staff are nice and friendly what I love the most was they're very generous filled up the entire... box to go with the goodies, the Al Pastor junior burrito tasted so delicious, and itssss so huge, it doesn't seem like a juniorto me, although I'm not a fond of spicy sauce lol it was my fault I filled it all thinking it's the nonspicy one lol but itsvery mouth watering extra filling ????, thanks for the extra sauces and the napkins, so grateful to have stopped by at thisplace, can't wait to come back in the future I would love to try their other food that's on the menu. Thank you. The horchatawas delicious too its been a while since I last had one. Read more
I ordered the #beef and #steak #tacos for #starters just to check them out! I #enjoyed the steak, will be back for more. Both... were #good though however, the beef taste like a mature #Pepi's Taco. If Pepi grew up their tacos would be this good! Read more
