“First time trying Guac Time. Got the quesadilla and the burrito bowl, and honestly both were really good. The food was fresh😋 the portions were generous, and everything had great flavor. Definitely worth checking out 😍if you're looking for good Zabiha halal Mexican food. Will be back!”
“We just finished lunch at Guac Time on North Avenue (west of Ashland) in Chicago’s Wicker Park neighborhood. I enjoyed a honey chicken bowl, was very delicious, basically the Jerk Chicken bowl with the protein swapped out… so yes, you can have anything you see on their menu switched up to your specifications and tastes. Everything here is made with fresh ingredients in batches just the right size, so nothing dries out, freshness always. Water and soft drinks are bottled only at this time—no fountain drinks. Service was great and you can carry out or dine in. I will return to try more menu items.”
“DO NOT COME HERE! Because you’ll be addicted 😭 My favorite burrito bowl of all time. Used to fly to New York to eat this but now they’re here in Chicago, couldn’t be happier. I’ve tried many different burrito bowls in Chicago but it’s just not the same. The portion is huge and it’s just so good. I’ll not eat burrito bowl anywhere else. ”
