I’m so glad I finally tried this place! They have some of the best tacos I’ve ever had! The tacos arabes were fantastic – great flavors, fresh, and unlike anything I’ve had! We will definitely be coming back!

Wow!! Best food I’ve had in awhile and am so excited this has opened up so close to us! The man who took our order and served us was incredibly kind and efficient, we will definitely be back!

Friendly staff but not attentive. The tortillas are good but the meat itself is not authentic and salty. Lake street taquerias are 100 percent better.

As a chef myself, not some Martha Stewart wannabe chef, this place is great. I split seven tacos with my brother, two margaritas, and a guac and chips. It was amazing and I can’t wait to come back. To those saying it’s bland, did you only eat the paper bag the chips came in? To those complaining about size, you clearly don’t understand food cost and mark up on properly flavored food. The tacos are more than enough and sized perfectly to get a few and experience the variety of flavors. El Traviseo, keep doing what you’re doing. I love it.

Fantastic food and a cozy place. I’m certainly not an expert, but it tasted authentic to me and it wasn’t heaping American portions which I appreciate. I would definitely recommend this place if your in the area and looking a for a quick bite.

Second time here and I had forgotten how amazing the food is here! If you haven’t been, you need to go. Sure, maybe $7 for an Inquieto Taco Arabes seems like a lot, but it isn’t. They are that good. And where I get 3 street tacos at most placed, I only need two of these. Although I wish my belly was big enough to eat 5 they are THAT GOOD! Plus, they have a solid patio and decent beer to help enjoy the meal.

$15 for 3 tacos is insane. Our steak tacos were grey. Couldn’t even finish the other 2

A bit overpriced for what you get and the quality of food. The atmosphere is nice. It’s nice. It would be a better representation of a Mexican restaurant if there was TVs. Tacos, beer, and no TV?? My order was around $18 for a burrito and a soda.

We’ve only eaten in once but get take out pretty regularly. The taco arabes and pillin discasdas are our favorite, especially with fish although all the fillings are good. We sometimes will also get a quesadilla. They’re well flavored and a good amount of food. Definitely get the guac and chips.
