Find this place on tik tic the service was great the cashier was very nice and she answered all my son's questions and give us taste test of their drinks but the food was mediocre at best I got the taco dinner and a lemonade my son wanted the lemonade I tried after I bought it was like sweet but bitter and and watery I got the steak tacos the were stuffed but flavorless and tasted like roast not skirt steak beans and rice weren't season at all.
This place is not the best I stopped by for tacos and they were terrible , this is why I travel west of 47th street to buy real authentic Mexican food cause this place is not it , prices are not this steep in the back of the yards neighborhood either and there tacos are a 10/10.
This used to be my favorite place to get tacos. I have patronized this business for many years since before the pandemic.

“It's been a while since I had nachos that tasted so good.”
It's been a while since I had nachos that tasted so good. Everything was fresh and well-seasoned! You could tell it was intentionally made with care. I loved everything about my jerk chicken nachos today and I'm so delighted that I don't have to travel far anymore for outstanding Mexican food! I've got a new spot and I look forward to trying other items on the menu! I highly recommend Taqueria Varitas! 😋😋✨️👌🏾

“I got the fries nachos with steak and I am in heaven.”
I got the fries nachos with steak and I am in heaven. The food is phenomenal and the service was amazing. The price was very very fair for the amount and quality of the food. I’m currently typing this while I’m eating the fries and am already looking forward to the next time I go in! Highly recommend!

“This place was so awesome.”
This place was so awesome. By far the best Mexican food I've found in the area. We got a burrito, nachos, and quesabirria tacos and everything was incredibly good. The service was also notably very nice, even though I was only inside for a minute to pick up my order. Prices are very reasonable. Free street parking nearby. Definitely come here if you are looking for good Mexican food in the area!

“Al pastor Tacos are great.”
Al pastor Tacos are great! (That's all I ever get tbh) Horchata has just the right amount of sweetness and the customer service is amazing! They also have great options for vegetarians

“Authentic Mexican fare.”
Authentic Mexican fare. Fair pricing and big portions. The chicken tacos and pico de gallo are extraordinarily yummy. The wait is normally less than 10 minutes. Call-in orders are always accurate and checkout is quick. Service is stellar. Hoping they are in the area for a really long time.

“My friend and I decided to try Taqueria Varitas, I have to say it was very pleasant.”
My friend and I decided to try Taqueria Varitas, I have to say it was very pleasant. I got the vibe of family owned and very passionate about the quality of the food. I got the Torta dinner and I will say it was very tasty. I like the salsas that we got the creamy jalapeño one was fire! The service was also very nice as it seemed lots of regular customers come! I will say check out a local food spot that is on my list of places that I enjoy!
