Ick. Food is not good. Wanted to like it but will not be trying again.
— Bridget Mitchell

This was my first time coming here and let me just say there food is absolutely horrible it’s crazy how you order a bowl You don’t even get sour cream with it they charge 50 Cent for sour cream and then on top of that how they charge a dollar for extra race and $1.50 for extra cheese and when I first got my meal, the rice was hard and I told the manager that and they made the food and the rice was still hard, and their steak was tough and so nasty But the workers here are friendly and they do have great customer service but overall the food is nasty.

What in the taco bell/ school lunch tacos is this?

I spent $30 here and it was not worth it. I will most definitely not be coming back here ever again.

“You can tell this place runs on a great system fast, friendly, and dialed in.”

You can tell this place runs on a great system fast, friendly, and dialed in. The California Burrito and sauces were amazing, but what really sold me was the hostess being way more than “just the hostess” she walked me through the menu, helped me choose, and made me feel genuinely welcomed (everyone greeted me). I’ll be back ASAP.

“What an incredible place.”

What an incredible place. As soon as you walk in you're greeted with amazing smells. It's a open kitchen concept so you get to see how your food is made. They definitely use fresh ingredients. Order ANYTHING off the menu. You won't be disappointed. Ask for Armon. (He's got the magical touch)

“Absolutely amazing flavours that are genuinely exploding in your mouth.”

Absolutely amazing flavours that are genuinely exploding in your mouth. The crew is friendly, energetic, and delivers great service, and the store is spotless. Cali Burrito and the steak tacos were amazing! Prices are excellent, especially considering the quality, and it truly stands out among the many food options available in Chicago. A fantastic addition to Bucktown: highly recommended!
