“First time here and the customer service was awesome. My favorite was The purple chicken tacos, I highly recommend .my cashier name was Esbeidy.”

“I love a good empanada, and theirs were really good. I also tried a shrimp taco and really enjoyed it too.”

“I enjoyed my visit very much. The food, service and drinks were phenomenal. Make sure to visit Esbeidy and try their Paloma”

“Excellent food. My friend and I did Hyrox and needed good afterwards. We stopped here and got high quality tacos, quesadillas, a smoothie, and chips/guac. It was kinda expensive in my opinion, but it seemed like multiple places in the building were. It hit the spot and there was plenty of seating.”

“Flavorful food and generous helpings, this was a great find while walking through Navy Pier. Jerk pork and chicken fajita taco (one each), chorizo empanada, chips and guacamole. The Guac was high quality with flavor and chunks, the sides of salsa were spicy. Loved this lunch stop!”

“Love the fusion flavors on the shrimp and fish. Purple taco shells 😉.”

“This food is excellent. Come to Beat Kitchen Cantina at Navy Pier 😍😍”

“best drinks at beat kitchen cantina Navy Pier!!!! food so delicious 😋 friendly and outstanding service, Esbeidy the bartender was so kind and attentive and a great attitude, prices were affordable. I will definitely come again!!!!”

“Overall a great, quick dinner! The menu is a decent size and the service was quick. The food was really tasty too and colorful! I got the quesabirria tacos which the flavor was great but it was so heavy with either grease or the juice. It got soggy super quick. If that could be a little less soggy it would be perfect! Plus you do get a lot of food with what you order. I would still probably get it again.”
