Boss Burrito — straightforward mexican in Forest Park. The kitchen takes tradition seriously. Quick and efficient. Karla B: "The meat is also tender and the other ingredients are always fresh"

“The place just oozes out a feeling of authenticity and makes you feel really welcome as well”
Honestly, we've been coming here for over 10 years...it used to be really good, but I'm finding some things have changed a lot.
First time I went, they messed up my order and I didn’t say anything.
Service was quick. However. overpriced for the amount they serve.

“The tacos are a real good size.”
The tacos are a real good size. They are pretty big in comparison to other Mexican restaurants in the surrounding area. When I went in today, prices were a bit lower than usual. That’s always great !! Especially since I thought they were a bit pricey. They are worth it though. I also get the steak tacos. The meat is also tender and the other ingredients are always fresh ! It’s a nice little spot in Downtown Oak Park

“Had been wanting to try this place for a while and ended up stopping in while running some other errands downtown.”
Had been wanting to try this place for a while and ended up stopping in while running some other errands downtown. Kind of put off that everything was sort of slopped on the chips, and it was hard to spread everything out to get all the different flavors mixed, instead of in sections, so I decided to take it home. That was my mistake - it didn’t travel well and wasn’t that appealing cold. I will definitely try this place again and maybe make a different menu selection. The staff was nice and I would love to have an experience that is similar to what the other reviewers have had.

“I adore Mexican food.”
I adore Mexican food. I cld eat it for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I'm a connoisseur, LOL. Having eaten food IN small Mexican towns like Patzcuaro and Morelia as well. Anyway.....See photos. For every bite of my STEAK burrito, I'm spitting out gristle. Really?! You have to be INTENTIONAL and care about whether or not you want to serve your customers/guests the very best. And this burrito said to me, "we don't care about trimming off the inedible parts of our meat", they'll still pay $10.50 for it. You might ask, why take the time to write a negative review?Because it just bothers me when business owners don't seem to care about the customers they're asking to support their businesses. And here we are trusting you to feed us what you would feed your family! It just toasts my panties to pay $11.00 for a single burrito and spit out garbage with every bite! Do many of your customers rave about loving gristle in their burrito? I didn't see any reviews to that effect. Because I was under the impression that its the job of the cook to trim that stuff away! I had enough gristle at the end to make a gristle taco!! Finally, if you're reading this review and craving an excellent Mexican culinary experience that you can take out in a styrofoam container, and if you want gristle-free steak in your burrito or taco, make a special trip to Taco Azeteca on Odgen in Brookfield. OMG! THAT's Mexican food cooked with love, quality and care! And their salsa verde is the BOMB and they don't charge you extra if you'd like a few more thrown in with your order.

“A wonderful local gem in Oak Park.”
A wonderful local gem in Oak Park. Always wonderful service and food! I typically go for tacos, cause I'm super basic, but their menu has a wide selection of very authentic Mexican food and dishes..

“I've been eating their food for 15 years.”
I've been eating their food for 15 years. Their food is authentic and delicious. The owner/cook reminds me of my Dad who was an excellent cook as well. I recently had a 70th Birthday party dinner and I had Boss Burrito to prepare steak and Chicken tacos with Beans, rice, guacamole, and veggies for 100 people. The food arrived on time and was hot. It was so delicious and everyone enjoyed their food. I've had several people that were at my party to visit the restaurant since then. Thank you 🤗❤️😋😋
