About
Tapicozza West Loop — honest food in Fulton Market. Feels like it's been there since before the neighborhood changed. The food tastes like it should, with no compromises. Well-priced, open late. "It was fresh, juicy, and the bread was perfectly soft but toasted just right" — Mariah Kamara (Naomi)

What Diners Are Saying

Some noted
quesadilla is false advertised and not good but everything else was p good.
Update: Prices went up and can't justify going anymore given the saltiness and shrinking of portions. $5 per taco.
Messed my damn meal up I told them repeatedly no beans in my burrito.

“We ordered for carry out.”
We ordered for carry out. They were quick! Our food was ready in less than 15 min. We ordered tacos de asada and pastor as well as guacamole. Let me tell you…. That guacamole was 🔥🔥 super flavorful- I love my guacamole with lots of lime and salt and it did not disappoint. The tacos were also really good and LOTS of meat!

“I was supposed to leave this review a week ago after i left but now here i am.”
I was supposed to leave this review a week ago after i left but now here i am. Wow! This place is amazing. From the food, to the customer service, everything was just great! I can’t remember her name up front but it was Maritza if I’m not mistaken, she was awesome, so sweet and so helpful! I had the nachos and omg they were amazing. Usually most places only give you a handful of meat but my nachos were packed with everything. I will definitely be back! This place is a gem that I’m glad i found😊

Lovely burrito! Our favorite Mexican in Chicago. Better than any of the ‘fancy’ alternatives in Fulton Market. Reminds me of the Mission neighborhood burritos in SF 🤤

“Walking down Lake Street near Morgan found this newly open taco restaurant.”
Walking down Lake Street near Morgan found this newly open taco restaurant. Did not have time to sit and eat so I ordered three tacos to go . Nothing fancy in the restaurant just a straight taco joint.Two steak tacos and one lengua with cebolla y cilantro (onion and cilantro) to go. If a Mexican restaurant can't do a basic taco then in my opinion not worth having anything else from said restaurant. One thing to know they do serve alcoholic beverages in addition to Mexican soft drinks they did have a happy hour special Wednesday through Friday for a 24 oz margarita for $9.99 versus its regular price which was a little steep but again it was 24 oz and I think it was $19.99. not too bad of a happy hour deal. All the staples are there enchiladas, tortas,steak, burritos and quite surprisingly pizza? So I was sent home with my three tacos and three different types of salsa ranging from mild to spicy. I am Mexican so spicy (heat) food and spicy salsa to me has to be really spicy not your average spicy level. Very surprised that each salsa had a unique homemade taste and was right on with each level of heat. The only disappointing thing for me was the super spicy was not super spicy again this is for me. But it was delicious I could taste the chilies the aromatic spices in each salsa.... Nothing watered down here. When it came to the tacos they also come with lettuce and tomato if you choose or eat them traditionally with onion and cilantro both the steak and the lengua meat were well seasoned, well cooked and the tortilla was grilled and steamed on the grill top versus microwaved I thought these tacos were as homemade traditional as you can get in the West loop they sort of reminded me of those 3:00 a.m. trips after a club to La pasadita on Ashland. Yes a little greasy Yes slightly salty but yummy nonetheless. This totally blows away all the frou frou taco places that have inundated the West loop you should go before the prices go up.

I ordered the carne asada burrito and It was good, the meat had a nice taste and so did the other ingredients. For the price & the size I was surprised. I would come back & try something new. Also the 3rd photo is the taco dinner
