“Honestly one of the best Spanish restaurants I’ve been to! When my boys and I walked by, we were a little concerned because no one was in there. I AM SO HAPPY WE STOPPED. Staff was amazing and accommodated my food allergies no problem. Food was fire. 10/10- coming back again!”

“Good tacos I dont like that much grease so I patted them down before eating but the meat was tender and tasty .. my daughter liked the ramen the staff was nice”

“Ive been going to the one in pilsen since he opened it, now seeing that he opened up a 2nd location is amazing. The food is still delicious and the best quesabirria tacos in the city. Worth the price considering the amount of meat there is, there is also different kinds if you dont want beef. Cant wait for this place to start making tortas and burritos. Music always on point as well.”

“The service was quick and friendly. We had steak tocos with cebolla and cilantro. Also had the Quesabirria, it was crispy and delicious. They had good music playing as well, can’t go wrong with some Freestyle Music.”

“Our first experience at quesabirria Jalisco was amazing! The tacos were fresh, delicious, and piping hot when they came out-downside no free chips. 5 stars still. Came back today, and it’s an entirely different restaurant with same price steak tacos- and LESS carne. Free chips and the same salsa that I paid for previously, but now free. First photos are quesabirria Jalisco Michelin tacos. Last photo from today.”

“This used to be my favorite spot, but unfortunately this was a huge disappointment. After closing the original location and opening this one, the quality has gone downhill. The tacos are about half the size they used to be, yet the prices haven’t reflected that. On top of that, they removed the quesabirria, which was one of the best items on the menu and one of the main reasons I kept coming back. I honestly don’t understand the business strategy. Smaller portions and removing customer favorites isn’t the way to keep loyal customers. It’s really disappointing to see a place that used to be so good become something I no longer want to recommend.”

“I’m extremely disappointed with my experience. I ordered food from this place, opened it up, and found lots of hair in my meal. Completely unacceptable and honestly disgusting. What a waste of money. Cleanliness and food safety should be a top priority at any restaurant. I won’t be ordering from here again, and I definitely wouldn’t recommend it to others until they improve their hygiene standards.”
“A wonderful experience talking with staff, and a tasty dinner for the family. The tacos are exceptional, and they let us try a taco they were adding to the menu and it SLAPPED. Wonderful community spot for us in Portage”
“The New Michelin taco is definitely something I'm gonna invite my boyfriend to for our anniversary because he loves authentic juicy tacos. This new taco is so perfect it reminds me of my man's 😮💨😍”
