The only thing I did not like is they use brown rice for the mexican rice, instead of white rice, so the flavor was not 100% what I was expecting, however the food was excellent

The burritos are very good. I had the chicken al pastor with jalapeños and spicy salsa. The portions are very generous and the chicken with the pineapple goes so well together. I’ve also had their food catered before for thanksgiving and Shabbat and the menus are always very unique. The salads are super refreshing and flavorful. They’re not open on Saturdays and Sundays. I forget about Friday’s but I’d assume they close early. The pazole is also 10/10. Overall, it’s a great restaurant.

I got their Mexican Cubana. This thing is huge! Great value for the price. I could easily make it two meals! Great blend of flavors! Grilled salami, barbacoa, chorizo, avocado, grilled onions, carrots, tomato, jalapeño and mayo. Terrific! Can’t wait to come back and try their loaded steak nachos or breakfast burrito!

Place is good. Food is very good. They have been around a while. Took me forever to try it but a lot of friends from NY love it because they participate in Uber Eats and deliver fresh and yummy food. Gave it a try. Not my style but I can see why people like it. Service was fantastic. Not a place to sit and eat. It’s a place to pick up and go. Worth a try. You’ll be back for more. I know I will. Need to get the tacos next time.

This is not a eat-in place it's a takeout place

Shout out to Taco Gingi for their Rosh Hashana box!. The food was delicious, portions generous. There was something for everyone-even my picky eaters! The food was delivered. This was my first time ordering from Taco Gingi, we're looking forward to ordering from them again. Thanks for enhancing our holiday.

Big shoutout to Tacos Gingi in Chicago — they really came through! 🙌 They delivered an amazing spread to McCormick Place: burritos, burrito bowls, salads, tons of sauces, and plenty of extra paper goods. It was fresh, flavorful, and abundant — easily enough for 20, even though it was for 15. My team isn’t all Jewish, and everyone raved about the food. 🌯🥗🌶️

Got to hand it Taco Gingi and those fish tacos. Crispy, tastey and hard to put down. Great little spot that you could miss and you would be missing out. Fresh flavors and consistent delivery. Will continue to enjoy supporting this establishment, family owned and operated since day one.
