Cactus Grill Mexican Restaurant and catering

“Seriously, one of our favorite taco spots to date.”

Seriously, one of our favorite taco spots to date! My absolute favorites are the horchata and the steak tacos. I've been here countless times and have never had a bad experience. I've even brought family and friends, and everyone has raved about their food! It's always a pleasure when we're greeted by Nadia's warm smile and sweet Nachito. We recommend this place often and will continue to make it a staple.

“The food tasted great.”

The food tasted great. A little greasier than I prefer but I did also get the chorizo which tends to be on the greasier side.

This establishment maintains a high standard of cleanliness and is staffed by an attentive and friendly team. I ordered the chicken quesabirrias, which was hot, tender, juicy, and bursting with flavor. The food was prepared with care and served promptly. I also tried the horchata, which was equally excellent. I’m glad I tried out this restaurant!

“This was our first time having Cactus Grill but definitely won’t be the last.”

This was our first time having Cactus Grill but definitely won’t be the last! We tried a variety of things, including carne asada burrito and tacos, a pastor taco, a barbacoa taco and chicken enchiladas verde. Each of the meats were tender and flavorful! The accompany salsas were also some of the best I’ve had. Already looking forward to my next meal from Cactus Grill.

First time here. I had the quasabirria. It was delicious! They had a solo singer for Cinco de Mayo. I'll come again to try other dishes. A must-try place.

“Ordered carryout today.”

Ordered carryout today. Excuse the presentation. That was my fault because I tilted the bag while carrying it in the house (was carrying groceries too). So far, it's the best tasting tacos I've had in the Forest Park/Oak Park area, as I have been on the lookout for good tacos in this area all year. This place is better than Tacobron and Taco '76, the other taco spots I've tried in the area. More affordable and tastier. In my tacos, I'm looking for a good taste in the tortilla and a good taste in the meat. My go to is chicken tacos. Their chicken tacos tasted great. Was able to taste the chicken and it had flavor. The tortillas was a little bland though. Now the service was amazing. The woman was so sweet there. That is such a plus. Will come again. 4/5

“Came here because someone mentioned the food was tex-mex & I was craving ranchera chicken enchiladas.”

Came here because someone mentioned the food was tex-mex & I was craving ranchera chicken enchiladas. The enchiladas were very good w shredded dark & white meat. I also liked the rice. The guacamole was chunky & good. I thought the beans & Barbacoa were too salty for my taste. Great service & very clean interior.

“Jalapeno salsa with chips a nice change from tamatillo.”

Jalapeno salsa with chips a nice change from tamatillo. Delicious soup comes with the meal. Steak was a nice cut and cooked perfect but very salty. The chile relleno was flavorful and cheesy. Rice and beans average in taste. Very friendly service and clean casual dining area. Overall, we enjoyed our meal.

“The tacos were a little too greasy and the quality of steak used was average at best.”

The tacos were a little too greasy and the quality of steak used was average at best. The flavor didn't stand out, and I did not like either of the sauces. The enchiladas were fine. I was a little messy in the transport, but that wasn't the restaurants fault. The rice was cooked well, but had a little flavor and mostly salty.
