Mexican Cuisine
If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.
Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.
Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.

My boyfriend and I love coming here after a long day at work. Because we've become regulars, the staff knows us there, and they are super friendly. The burritos, tacos, chimichangas, and quesadillas are all good. The prices are great too. Definitely worth checking out!
(5)Ronald L.
Great food, lunch buffet is nice
(4)Janey Y.
Open late and definitely good Mexican food for somewhere in the Midwest. This little hole in the wall reminds me of what I see in San Diego, CA, except no lines!!! They don't call their rice drink "horchata" here. When you see an Asian girl ask for that, they must think you're crazy. Despite it catering more towards Americans, it's still very authentic. I tried the chicken in the past, but did not find it great. Do try their carne asada giant burrito with avocado. The only thing missing is the greasy-artery clogging feel afterward!
(4)Delaney B.
So good!! I came to visit Illinois for 2 weeks, and my dad took me here 4 times. I loved it! The food is wonderful!! And good prices too!
(5)Ken B.
Best Mexican food around. Dont waste time and money with the sit down places. This place is authentic and amazing. I get the pork burrito each time with guacamole and chips. Sure, it looks like crap on the outside but the food will not disappoint. Quesadillas are also really good if you have kids.
(5)Frank N.
Being from Southern California, I have searched in vain for Mexican food that reminds me of East Los Angeles King Taco. No gimmicks, no foofy B.S., no ridiculous decorations, just straight up good food. I've found my home.

Ever since I found the Los Tapatios in Steamwood I have been a fan. What more can you ask for than a huge burrito at 2 am in the morning? People that think that rice should be inside of a burrito need to go to Taco Bell. All I want is meat, meat, and more meat - oh and some cheese. That being said these places have never done me wrong no matter which one I end up at. Always fresh none of that mystery meat being held till you order. As soon as you tell them what you want the raw steak hits the griddle with some nice seasoning that unfortunately some places seem to omit. No the cheapest place but for the portion you seriously get two meals or a serious food coma like I had last night. Don't forget to get some horchata and extra salsa verde it just wouldn't be the same without it.
(4)Nancy W.
Don't let the outside of this little restaurant deceive you. It is clean, clean, clean. Employees are friendly and fast. The food here is SUPERB! I love the chips and salsa, the Burrito Grande Suiza with Corizo or veggie style is just excellent. I love this place.
(5)Caitlin G.
great spot for some late night drunk munchies. The burritos are huge and great but do yourself a favor and get pork tacos with cilantro, onion and cheese only. AMAZING!
(4)Allison H.
Just got out of mass. The boy is craving a breakfast burrito, and none of that McDONALD'S crap. Enter the only walk-in Mexican joint in the area that's open. His chorizo and eggs burrito was HUGE, and at $4.95 one can't complain. He reports that it was delicious. I had tacos- beef and chicken. I'd stick with the beef-yummy! The chicken was a little flavorless. When you eat in, chips and salsa are free, and the salsa is definitely acceptable! We will be returning again, especially for those days when we're craving huge delicious burritos...or maybe we'll just make it a Sunday morning ritual!!
(5)Eliza R.
Go to this location! Skip the lisle location chorizo ground beef and tongue are the highlights. Also pick up a Mexican coke!
(4)Yvonne I.
I was doubtful about how good this place would be when my dad suggested it, but I was more than pleased. Very affordable. Their Burritos are so good, I feel like a pregnant woman when I randomly have cravings for them. Try them, they have late hours and serve breakfast too.
(5)Jeff K.
Coming from San Diego, California, I have to say that I am not at all impressed. In fact, I am very disappointed that the only way to get a proper Mexican food fix is to wait till sunday and go to the Maxwell Street Market. Anyway, this place lacks je nais se quoi. Why do they have lettuce in their burritos? Iceberg lettuce is a filler, and I don't like it. My verdict of this place is bland and uninteresting.
(2)Jon F.
AKA: Carwash Burrito Place! Chilli Rellenos burritos for the regular burrito price, great fast service and AWESOME food. Just a notch better than El Famous
(5)Jessica D.
Delicious, authentic Mexican food that is cheap! Super accessible on busy Ogden in Downers Grove. I like this location better than the one several miles West in Lisle (in front of Naperville/Lisle Jeep/Hummer).
(4)S P.
No rice in the burrito??...that is definitely not my kind of burrito! I'll just go to chipotle next time :(
(3)Brian M.
Very good place in general. This place is clean, the service is good, and the food is pretty good too. Their tacos are better than their burritos I have to say. The cooks are fast the servers are sweet.
(4)Sarah R.
So. Damn. Good. We used to live right down the street and order take-out all the time. Now we're a bit further away and we don't get it as often, but we'll still make the drive when we want Mexican. The hubby and his brother have been to a few of the other locations and none are as good as Downers Grove. The one in Westmont is much closer to us but we'll still make the drive to DG!
(4)Lauren V.
I've always had a very good meal when I've eaten here. Is it the best burrito I've ever had...probably not, but quite good nonetheless. People I've gone with have had everything from regular beef and pork dishes to exotics like tongue and tripe...and all said they would come back again for a second visit. I would agree.
(3)Brian H.
This is a great Mexican restaurant. If you like to pay a lot and feel special, go to Chipotle, gringo. If you want to be fed well at a cheap price, try this place. Its clean, excellent sit-down service, great atmosphere. If you want the full experiance, get wasted and go here past 2am on weekends. Everyone talks about the burritos (which are good), but I just cant go wrong with a plate of their nachos w/ lett + tom. They always bring you chips and salsa and water free of charge which is another small perk as well.
(5)Michelle Marie R.
Can't 'yelp' it! When I need my fix of cheese n shrimp quesodillas! it hits the spot! Busy...but quick! Good food solid prices!
(3)Dino M.
Was always wondering about this place. Was on my way home from fireworks on the 4th, and everything was closed except Los Burritos. Stopped in for a giant burrito. It was well worth it. Not the fanciest place, but the food is great.
(4)Jeff L.
What can I say about this place except EXCELLENTE!!! Great after a night out at the bars, or anytime. This is the only burrito place where I will eat any meat and feel comfortable. Great quality, great prices and good music! The salsa is amazing and so are the peppers and carrots!
(5)Reid C.
Clean restaurant, friendly staff and standard issue chicken burrito. Nothing really stands out as unique about it. That's not a knock - just strikes me as a missed opportunity. The guacamole is tasty - fresh cilantro, unevenly sized chunks of tomato and no large chunks of onion. Mysteriously, they do not make a pico de gallo in house. Plus side: it was served super hot.
(3)Apple S.
My friend suggested going to this place since we were in need of dinner at 11pm. He had a craving for "the best burritos ever" and took me to this place. I really enjoyed the chimichangas, quesadillas, and horchata. They were definitely the best I've tried, but my only complaint is that the servings are ENORMOUS. There is no way a normal person should ever eat as much as they serve in one sitting -- but apparently some people like that, so, whatever. Service was good, not outstanding. but I suppose you can't be perfect. :D I'm sure I'll be back. (I don't normally expect myself to like a Mexican joint this much, so I was very pleasantly surprised.)
(5)Tommy M.
I live so close I can walk there. I'll start with the bad, which is only the horchata - usually pretty grainy. I'd skip it and go for the Jarritos. Now for the good - the burritos are awesome. There are plenty of other items on the menu, but I've only had the burritos. I usually go for steak or chorizo. If you go with chorizo, ask them to put scrambled eggs in there too. YUM. I'd eat it for breakfast, but I'd probably want to sleep all day if I did. If you go for lunch, I usually eat 2/3 of the burrito and save the rest for later, otherwise you'll go into a food coma. A few friends of mine used to have a rating scale for burrito joints, so here goes...(all are scale from 1-5, 5 being awesome) Girth - 4.5. I've seen bigger, but only from one place. You'll need two hands. Meat-veggie ratio - 4. Sometimes they overload the shredded cheese, but you usually get a good amount of meat in there. Slop factor - 4. Some places the tortilla stays together like glue. This one can fall apart sometimes, so you may want to have a fork nearby. If you get the chorizo, have a healthy stack of napkins next to your place, you're gonna need 'em. That stuff is greasy! Service - 5. They are always smiling, bring you chips and salsa (free), and bring your food to the table if you dine in. Make sure you tip em. Value - 5. For the price you pay, you get a ton more than a lot of places. Gets a bit loud after hours, but then again, what place isn't loud at 2am? (besides a laundromat) Enjoy!
(4)Kim B.
Great prices, tasty steak tacos (the chicken tacos are VERY bland), unlimited chips and salsa (when you dine in) = 3 of my favorite things.
(4)Jackie P.
Cheap, cheap, cheap! It's pretty good Mexican food for really cheap. I always get the nachos with ground beef and beans and they are always really good. I like it when the chips get a little soggy but still stay crunch to and their chips do the trick. The service is fast and the food is always hot. They just get a little confused when it gets really busy and sometimes not everyone's food comes out at the same time, which can make dining with a large group (more than 2 or 3) a little difficult. If you are looking for a more upscale Mexican restaurant this is not the place for you. It's your typcial hole in the wall diner but like I said it's cheap and pretty yummy!
(3)Jen S.
Good food, great service, and a reasonable price. Now if only it was diet friendly!
(4)Karl B.
After moving here from the s. side and having el gallo as the typical taco/burrito place I must say this pretty much comes close. The food is hot and fresh and good! I prefer the Westmont location as it's closer and never packed. This is definitely a great Mexican establishment at a good price.
(4)Kaley C.
3 stars for decent Mexican food at a cheap price. Since I was in from out of town, I was either looking for upscale Mexican with foodie options or local, authentic Mexican with no frills. This spot is more like the latter but doesn't quite fall into either category. The restaurant is definitely no frills. Order at the counter and they bring the food to the table. Decently priced, but the authenticity and flavor of the food just wasn't spectacular enough to be a home run. I probably won't be back, but I can imagine visiting again if I lived in Downers Grove for a quick and cheap bite.
(3)Mike D.
WOW, I saw all the great reviews and tried it out. Average would be a compliment! Chorizzo and Egg burrito was less than average. Stale chips Runny, no flavor salsa. Meh Move on down the road, there are better options
(2)Minh-An C.
After a few of my classmates were raving about a decent Mexican food place in the suburbs, another classmate and I decided to check out the hype. We went there for a late lunch on a Thursday and the place was pretty packed for that time. We got the carne asada with flour tortilla and 2 tacos. The order came to about $20 for 2 people and we ate in so they gave us chip and salsa while we were waiting for our food to come out. The carne asada was a rice plate, which I was mistakenly expecting to be carne asada fries. The plate had rice, lettuce, 1 slice of tomato, pinto beans, some guac, and about 3 slice of meat. Overall, it was mediocre food for a pretty expensive price. The restaurant wasn't fancy or anything and I am so used to cheap Mexican food so I was pretty disappointed with the price and quality. I am surprised my Californian classmates were raving about this since we are pretty spoiled with delicious, authentic, and cheap Mexican food in CA. I guess they lowered their expectations for suburbs Mexican food. They have a small parking lot and it is one way so if you can't find a spot, you would have to drive all the way around the building and back again to find another spot.. Service was great, though!
(3)Sandra D.
I LOVE this place! They have the best chiles rellenos in my opinion. They are very pleasant. The restaurant is very clean. You get complimentary chips and salsa.
(5)Daniel W.
The first time I had Los was probably freshman year of high school. Oh the memories....I've been a loyal Los Burritos customer ever since. I don't even want to know how much $$$ i've made for the owner but you're welcome! Now I started out at the Glen Ellyn location but recently moved and now I go to this location and they're spot on. I actually go to this los more often than I did the other location. I actually go sober to this location vs. the other as well. Anyways...to the food! Los cooks everything fresh! That's why I prefer Los over the juggernaut chain that is taking over the land...The tacos, quesadillas, burritos, fajitas, etc.. all taste authentic and delicious! I enjoy using all three salsas for my food. Each and every bite is a different taste. You can't go wrong with the chips and salsa either...excellent service is always provided. Very friendly and always timely. Keep it up!!
(4)Michele S.
Met a friend here for a late lunch. Went for the al pastor tacos with all the trimmings. We also enjoyed the salsa and chips. The food was fresh and prompt, so we were both able to get in and out and back to work in good time. The employees were friendly and very nice. The only downside was the parking and the fact that the place wasn't the cleanest inside. I'm thinking maybe the place was a little dirty because they probably just finished a busy lunch service. If I'm in the area, I will probably come back and try the quesadillas or steak tacos.
(3)Marina B.
If there was an option to give them no stars, it would have been just that. I saw all the great reviews on this location so I decided to give them a shot. Went there at about 11 pm and ordered it to go. The food was absolutely TERRIBLE the steak was dry and way overcooked (most likely cooked twice just to heat it up), the ingredients i paid extra for (sour cream, double meat) were nowhere to be seen, the lettuce was soggy..the tortilla itself was very dry. Even the French fries were bad and it doesn't take much to cook good fries.. Worst Los I've ever had in my life and I like to indulge in Los burritos almost every other day if not every day so thats saying something. All in all I will never go to this location again. If you want a good steak burrito, go to any other Los locations. Trust me on this.
(1)DEALS D.
One of my favorite mexican joints. The steak burrito and a mix of chicken and pork it absolutely perfect texture and flavor. Service is always prompt and perfect. Definitely going back.
(5)Courtney C.
I've been to the other LBT, but this is my first time at the Downer's Grove location. I ordered the torta grande, which had breaded steak, ham, cheese, lettuce, beans and sour cream on it. It was comparable to most tortas that I've had before, but I couldn't say that it was great or amazing. It was pretty decent. I came in to pick the order up and I found that the place was a little dirty and disorganized at the time. They have the chips (for dine-in orders) lined up right where you pick up the food. So anyone that picks up their food is now breathing and standing over the chips. It kinda freaked me out and I'm not even really a germaphobe. It was definitely a middle of the road/a-ok experience.
(3)Shahrooz E.
Great value as the lunches are affordable!! Like the salsa and chips... they are conveniently stacked up next to the register so you can grab them after you order. The food is OK... I ordered the Carne Asada and it was a little bland and the meat a little chewy. But for $10 I can't say it was bad just not very memorable.
(3)Donatas D.
--My favorite Mexican restaurant downers grove.And trust me, I am extremely picky about my Mexican food! They have the best burritos !!! It is family run...
(5)R.J. V.
If you're tired of cheap Mexican fast food knock offs then come here. The food from what I tried was delicious. I ordered a steak burrito covered with cheese. In addition I was given a complimentary basket of chips and salsa. For a drink I had horchata. The burritos here are HUGE. Easily you can make a meal of one. The chips were tasty and the salsa a nice amount of spicy. The horchata was sweet tasting. The staff was also very courteous and did a great job. Getting my food took hardly any time. Thank you for a great visit. I plan to return. I recommend anyone come here that craves something south of the border!
(4)Kristen L.
My favorite guilty pleasure :)) I always get chicken tacos and a tamale. They are the CLEANEST restaurant I have ever been to. They are constantly cleaning! Wait staff is always making sure you have enough chips, salsa, sauce. They're open super late which is good for me as a night owl. Only drawback to that is typically after 10 PM it's just drunk high schoolers and college kids back for a break.
(5)Joe P.
Excellent Mexican food. It's my go to spot all the time. Very nice people. The food later while it goes through your stomach is arrrgggghhhhh but when you're eating it it's amazing. The chorizo sausage is barely greasy, which is the BEST way it can be. Most place have very greasy chorizo...
(4)Carl B.
Awesome food at awesome prices. Highly recommended. Fast and friendly service. Bathrooms are messy and need updating , this isonly reason not 5 stars.
(4)Andres D.
Sunday funday rituals usually lead me to Los Burritos Tapatios around midnight. Whether its 2pm in the afternoon or late night munchies LBT hits the spot. My typical late night order: -Tres Quesadillas con Pollo -Dos cremas y salsa verde The staff is super friendly and always bring me water to my table. (I usually dine in alone). The chips and salsa are a nice apéritif to the main course. The chicken quesadillas are cooked to order and full of flavor. I love how they cut the final end product into little triangles, like bite size...pretty cool. I usually leave a couple bucks for tip since they always bring the food out to the tables and clean up after you.
(5)Jazmine H.
Everytime I call in to order my food they mess up the order and I always end up eating the wrong thing.
(1)Brian D.
Ok food. Digestive disagreement. The salsas were too salty at the salsa bar. Cashier got the order wrong. I will give it another chance.
(2)Johnny T.
This place was packed early Saturday afternoon, parking can get tricky as its either in the back or the side of the building. Never been here before so I often let the name of the establishment be my guide. Prices were cheap as 2 burritos came to a little under $13 with tax. Inside was clean, but divey at the same time. Burritos here were solid, packed with lots of diced meat. Crazy hours too as they're open til 2 am everyday and 4 am Fridays and Saturdays.
(4)Marguerite K.
I have been coming here for over 10 years. This is my son's favorite food to eat. He loves the giant steak burrito. My favorite is the chorizo burrito with egg. The chile relleno and pork tacos are also wonderful. The staff remember us and are friendly, but busy. We have not been disappointed with anything from here. It is worth the trip.
(5)Jeannie O.
Being from San Diego, CA where every block there's a Roberto's, Rigoberto's, Sergio's, MXN, Lolita's or something that serves Carne Asada Fries.... This place is as close to home in the midwest as I can get. This place does accept credit cards! Open until 2 AM! I recommend the steak or the lengua burrito and ask with onions and cilantro. Otherwise it's tomatoes and lettuce. Also, don't expect to get your horchata or orange bang here, they do not serve it :( And... no... Carne Asada Fries are not served here in the midwest. I think it's a San Diego thing.
(5)Danny Y.
Lengua may be good for tacos, but it's not really great for a burrito. In any case, I've had better horchata and better tacos, therefore the mediocre rating. The only plus about this place is that it is open late night. Verdict: Great for late nights and not much else.
(3)Ben C.
I have eaten here many times and the food is ALWAYS superb! I have never had a problem with the staff or the food. If you want Mexican food in the western suburbs, eat here!
(5)Greg B.
It's OK. The burritos are huge. I typically only go here very late at night when everything else is closed.
(3)Leon K.
I will preface by saying that if a Mexican restaurant does not offer lengua as a taco option, I am hesitant to try it. That being said not only does LBT offer lengua, but tripitas as well. I've been here a handful of times now and have been satisfied every time. I've tried ordering across the menu but I keep coming back for the tacos. I highly recommend the suite of taco options with cilantro and onions. The cesina (salty, smoked beef) is also a treat I haven't typically seen in most restaurants. A side of grilled onions to put on top adds to deliciousness. A couple of tips: - Eat in for the free chips and salsa - Make sure to ask for the additional salsas (I believe it's a salsa verde and chipotle salsa) - The staff does a good job, tips are appreciated. Order with a smile!
(4)Jannelly D.
Yeah being Mexican and knowing what good Mexican food tastes like, this place should be ashamed to serve what they do and call it Mexican food. They can't even make chilaquiles taste good and it's simple to make, the rice was disgusting and the beans were gross. The salsa they serve with the chips is a joke. First and last time I go there
(1)Sara T.
Service is slow, they got my order wrong, decided to charge me extra for the slight price difference, and made me massively late on my lunch break. Speaking from behind the counter food service/cashier experience, when it's a business' service failure, it'd be wise of them to comp the difference rather than nickel and dime the customer they've just inconvenienced. A happy customer is a return customer; an unhappy customer won't be coming back. I won't be coming back.
(2)Toby C.
The food here can be likened to that of having a spiritual awakening. What's going on in the kitchen at Los Burritos Tapatios is nothing short of culinary mastery. The pollo tacos, they sing to you with their language of flavor. The flavor is endless, as are the chips and salsa. The man behind the counter, with the thousand mile stare. He wears his hat and apron day in and day out, with that stare... You don't mess with a man like that, you just respect his tacos and call it a day. Los Burritos Tapatios, surrender to it.
(5)Matt S.
Chips and salsa are delicious. Chips are nice and thick and the salsa is nice and hot. Use the salsa in whatever food you get for some extra kick. Menu is typical of most fast food restaurants: expect burritos, tacos, tortas, and several entrees. The tortillas you get with your food may seem small but you get a lot of them. Quality is pretty good and the price is right. The place is somewhat small but still a good place to go for some quick Mexican. I've had a server come to the table but I've also seen people ordering at the counter. Slightly confusing but you'll get food either way!
(3)Jin V.
I have been going here for years. The pork tacos well done hits the spot for me. some avocado and jalapenos on the side ...yum Service is great. I most definitely will recommend this place
(4)Ericka A.
Going to Los Burritos Tapatios is like cheating on your significant other. You do it because you're looking for instant gratification, but you're left feeling dirty and slightly disgusted with yourself. I started seeing a taqueria in Addison. Things were moving quickly and we were getting pretty serious, but we weren't exclusive yet. I like to keep my options open. So when I'm at work and my beloved is all the way over on the other side of the suburbs, I began to lust after others. I went on the prowl for other places and found Los Burritos Tapatios was nearby. Reading the Yelp reviews was like food porn. I had to break me off a piece of that. I came to LBT for lunch and the place was packed, but the ordering line wasn't too long. I stepped up to the register and enthusiastically ordered a taco with grilled steak, a taco de lengua, a taco de lomo (all Mexican style with additional avocada, cheese and crema) and a large horchata. The cashier rang up the order and I immediately knew I was making a mistake when it cost $9.42. I was cheating on my taqueria and I was literally paying for it. The price was a couple dollars more expensive. My to go bag of "shame tacos" was handed to me about 15 minutes later and I sneaked them into my cubicle. There, I made sweet mouth-love to them. I ravaged them and they filled my belly, but my heart felt a little empty. One taco was missing the extra toppings, the horchata was bland in comparison to other places, and the meats just weren't as flavorful. The grilled steak was the best. I paid a higher price for the lengua and lomo. Neither were that great. I don't know if it's how they cook them or the quality of cuts, but I cheated on my taqueria with a far inferior restaurant. I hope La Placita will take me back.

Pork burrito was decent. Good salsa and thick chips if u like them. I prefer thin chips. Very kind service
(3)Delaney B.
So good!! I came to visit Illinois for 2 weeks, and my dad took me here 4 times. I loved it! The food is wonderful!! And good prices too!
(5)Ken B.
Best Mexican food around. Dont waste time and money with the sit down places. This place is authentic and amazing. I get the pork burrito each time with guacamole and chips. Sure, it looks like crap on the outside but the food will not disappoint. Quesadillas are also really good if you have kids.
(5)Frank N.
Being from Southern California, I have searched in vain for Mexican food that reminds me of East Los Angeles King Taco. No gimmicks, no foofy B.S., no ridiculous decorations, just straight up good food. I've found my home.

This place gives you some great hole in the wall with basic good food for a low price! You can't beat it for lunch or a late night snack! I've gone twice now and gotten the Burrito Suizo with everything! What does this mean? I'll tell you! This means that you get your choice of meat, beans, cheese lettuce, and tomato. I also added sour cream and avacados. I swear today the burrito was bigger than on the first visit! They put all of your additions inside of the burrito. Now, they do this for convience and to make it faster. You don't have to get any of these things! Why people are complaining below is beyond me! You asked for it, so that's what you get! Don't ask for everything next time! Duh! Ok, I can't have spicy foods (let's not get into that now), so I love that they do a good basic seasoning on the grilled steak that I got and then gave it a nice char. You can add the 2 different kinds of hot sauce and salsa they offer if you want, but that's all I needed! It was great! I love being able to go somewhere and not have to ask them to cook it a different way based on my dietary needs! Build it your way!
(4)Stephanie H.
My boyfriend and I love coming here after a long day at work. Because we've become regulars, the staff knows us there, and they are super friendly. The burritos, tacos, chimichangas, and quesadillas are all good. The prices are great too. Definitely worth checking out!
(5)Ronald L.
Great food, lunch buffet is nice
(4)Janey Y.
Open late and definitely good Mexican food for somewhere in the Midwest. This little hole in the wall reminds me of what I see in San Diego, CA, except no lines!!! They don't call their rice drink "horchata" here. When you see an Asian girl ask for that, they must think you're crazy. Despite it catering more towards Americans, it's still very authentic. I tried the chicken in the past, but did not find it great. Do try their carne asada giant burrito with avocado. The only thing missing is the greasy-artery clogging feel afterward!

Ever since I found the Los Tapatios in Steamwood I have been a fan. What more can you ask for than a huge burrito at 2 am in the morning? People that think that rice should be inside of a burrito need to go to Taco Bell. All I want is meat, meat, and more meat - oh and some cheese. That being said these places have never done me wrong no matter which one I end up at. Always fresh none of that mystery meat being held till you order. As soon as you tell them what you want the raw steak hits the griddle with some nice seasoning that unfortunately some places seem to omit. No the cheapest place but for the portion you seriously get two meals or a serious food coma like I had last night. Don't forget to get some horchata and extra salsa verde it just wouldn't be the same without it.

Its 3 am you're drunk and NEED a steak burrito. Look no further Los Burritos Tapatios to the rescue! I usually get steak with extra green sauce and its awesome. The nachos are pretty badass as well and they are fucking HUGE. Don't order the nachos expecting a side because they're a meal in themselves. If you're going to Taco Bell or Chipotle instead of Los you are a fucking idiot and deserve those disgusting brown streaks in your underwear that those restaurants are giving you. While this isn't fine dining you won't find a better cheap and fast mexican place around.

Efff this place is going to bust my pant zippers if I continue to eat here! I keep ordering the enchiladas with green sauce (salsa verde if you will) because the green sauce is the perfect blend of sour citrus, salt and heat. The prices are very reasonable, they give you plenty of food and we order in from my office at least once a month. One of the best mexican places I've been to, and considering that as the resident DD of high school, I took many a drunk 17 yo friend here for a burrito to sober up at midnight circa 2002-3, I am surprised I didn't give it a better chance back then.
(4)Christopher K.
Super cheap, and seemingly open all of the time (always lots of cars parked around). I have eaten there before, but nothing memorable. My burrito was so-so, the pork was a bit charred and very dry. The sides and all of the other burrito parts were fresh. During normal hours I would probably pass and try somewhere else, though this is a good late night alternative to the numerous drive-troughs.
(2)Julia B.
Huge delicious burritos on the cheap. What more could you ask for? When I worked in the DG I would go here at least once a week. . . very fast/friendly service and GREAT salsas.
(5)Bret S.
I enjoy this place. The food is basic and well-done. The ground beef super-burritos are my favorite.
(4)Christofer B.
I have no idea what the rest of the people who reviewed this spot ate or what state of sobriety they were in but this place was awful. First, they forgot to put avocado in my giant steak burrito. Then they for got to include green salsa in the bag. Finally, the burrito was cold inside and the steak was of an atrocious quality not fit for a dog. With such better option in the area, this place will never get my business again.
(1)Lauren D.
I get a steak burrito with fresh avocado and hot salsa....every time...and i can never eat the entire thing! The meat is good (very flavorful and not fatty), the other ingredients are always fresh.
(4)kristen s.
there is nothing bad i can say about ANY los b's i've ever visited. their mole sauce is delicious, and i always get the cheese enchiladas. nom! they're well priced, and open late which is a big winner for me! each one makes everything slightly different, but they're all great.
(5)Ziek B.
It's just not that good. I don't understand the reviews claiming otherwise. I live very close to Los Burritos Tapatios and really wish it was good. I love Taquerias. The Burritos are large and cheap - but beyond that, the flavors are bland. They load them with cheap ingredients, borderline grotesque cheese, and greasy or grisly meat. The Chile Rellano burritos are also not very good. I go here in a pinch sometimes because it is so close and it is open late. It beats Steak and Shake, but that really doesn't say much. I prefer both Taco Express or better yet, the Taco Grill and Salsa Bar located in nearby Westmont. Taco Grill is on Ogden and is delicious. Taco Express is by the tracks off of Cass Ave. BOth are better bets if you are looking for good tasting Tacos, Burritos, and other Mexican treats.

After a few of my classmates were raving about a decent Mexican food place in the suburbs, another classmate and I decided to check out the hype. We went there for a late lunch on a Thursday and the place was pretty packed for that time. We got the carne asada with flour tortilla and 2 tacos. The order came to about $20 for 2 people and we ate in so they gave us chip and salsa while we were waiting for our food to come out. The carne asada was a rice plate, which I was mistakenly expecting to be carne asada fries. The plate had rice, lettuce, 1 slice of tomato, pinto beans, some guac, and about 3 slice of meat. Overall, it was mediocre food for a pretty expensive price. The restaurant wasn't fancy or anything and I am so used to cheap Mexican food so I was pretty disappointed with the price and quality. I am surprised my Californian classmates were raving about this since we are pretty spoiled with delicious, authentic, and cheap Mexican food in CA. I guess they lowered their expectations for suburbs Mexican food. They have a small parking lot and it is one way so if you can't find a spot, you would have to drive all the way around the building and back again to find another spot.. Service was great, though!
(3)Sandra D.
I LOVE this place! They have the best chiles rellenos in my opinion. They are very pleasant. The restaurant is very clean. You get complimentary chips and salsa.
(5)Shahrooz E.
Great value as the lunches are affordable!! Like the salsa and chips... they are conveniently stacked up next to the register so you can grab them after you order. The food is OK... I ordered the Carne Asada and it was a little bland and the meat a little chewy. But for $10 I can't say it was bad just not very memorable.
(3)Kristen L.
My favorite guilty pleasure :)) I always get chicken tacos and a tamale. They are the CLEANEST restaurant I have ever been to. They are constantly cleaning! Wait staff is always making sure you have enough chips, salsa, sauce. They're open super late which is good for me as a night owl. Only drawback to that is typically after 10 PM it's just drunk high schoolers and college kids back for a break.
(5)Joe P.
Excellent Mexican food. It's my go to spot all the time. Very nice people. The food later while it goes through your stomach is arrrgggghhhhh but when you're eating it it's amazing. The chorizo sausage is barely greasy, which is the BEST way it can be. Most place have very greasy chorizo...
(4)Carl B.
Awesome food at awesome prices. Highly recommended. Fast and friendly service. Bathrooms are messy and need updating , this isonly reason not 5 stars.
(4)Greg B.
It's OK. The burritos are huge. I typically only go here very late at night when everything else is closed.
(3)Andres D.
Sunday funday rituals usually lead me to Los Burritos Tapatios around midnight. Whether its 2pm in the afternoon or late night munchies LBT hits the spot. My typical late night order: -Tres Quesadillas con Pollo -Dos cremas y salsa verde The staff is super friendly and always bring me water to my table. (I usually dine in alone). The chips and salsa are a nice apéritif to the main course. The chicken quesadillas are cooked to order and full of flavor. I love how they cut the final end product into little triangles, like bite size...pretty cool. I usually leave a couple bucks for tip since they always bring the food out to the tables and clean up after you.
(5)Jazmine H.
Everytime I call in to order my food they mess up the order and I always end up eating the wrong thing.
(1)Brian D.
Ok food. Digestive disagreement. The salsas were too salty at the salsa bar. Cashier got the order wrong. I will give it another chance.
(2)Johnny T.
This place was packed early Saturday afternoon, parking can get tricky as its either in the back or the side of the building. Never been here before so I often let the name of the establishment be my guide. Prices were cheap as 2 burritos came to a little under $13 with tax. Inside was clean, but divey at the same time. Burritos here were solid, packed with lots of diced meat. Crazy hours too as they're open til 2 am everyday and 4 am Fridays and Saturdays.
(4)Marguerite K.
I have been coming here for over 10 years. This is my son's favorite food to eat. He loves the giant steak burrito. My favorite is the chorizo burrito with egg. The chile relleno and pork tacos are also wonderful. The staff remember us and are friendly, but busy. We have not been disappointed with anything from here. It is worth the trip.
(5)Jannelly D.
Yeah being Mexican and knowing what good Mexican food tastes like, this place should be ashamed to serve what they do and call it Mexican food. They can't even make chilaquiles taste good and it's simple to make, the rice was disgusting and the beans were gross. The salsa they serve with the chips is a joke. First and last time I go there
(1)R.J. V.
If you're tired of cheap Mexican fast food knock offs then come here. The food from what I tried was delicious. I ordered a steak burrito covered with cheese. In addition I was given a complimentary basket of chips and salsa. For a drink I had horchata. The burritos here are HUGE. Easily you can make a meal of one. The chips were tasty and the salsa a nice amount of spicy. The horchata was sweet tasting. The staff was also very courteous and did a great job. Getting my food took hardly any time. Thank you for a great visit. I plan to return. I recommend anyone come here that craves something south of the border!
(4)Kaley C.
3 stars for decent Mexican food at a cheap price. Since I was in from out of town, I was either looking for upscale Mexican with foodie options or local, authentic Mexican with no frills. This spot is more like the latter but doesn't quite fall into either category. The restaurant is definitely no frills. Order at the counter and they bring the food to the table. Decently priced, but the authenticity and flavor of the food just wasn't spectacular enough to be a home run. I probably won't be back, but I can imagine visiting again if I lived in Downers Grove for a quick and cheap bite.
(3)Mike D.
WOW, I saw all the great reviews and tried it out. Average would be a compliment! Chorizzo and Egg burrito was less than average. Stale chips Runny, no flavor salsa. Meh Move on down the road, there are better options
(2)Daniel W.
The first time I had Los was probably freshman year of high school. Oh the memories....I've been a loyal Los Burritos customer ever since. I don't even want to know how much $$$ i've made for the owner but you're welcome! Now I started out at the Glen Ellyn location but recently moved and now I go to this location and they're spot on. I actually go to this los more often than I did the other location. I actually go sober to this location vs. the other as well. Anyways...to the food! Los cooks everything fresh! That's why I prefer Los over the juggernaut chain that is taking over the land...The tacos, quesadillas, burritos, fajitas, etc.. all taste authentic and delicious! I enjoy using all three salsas for my food. Each and every bite is a different taste. You can't go wrong with the chips and salsa either...excellent service is always provided. Very friendly and always timely. Keep it up!!
(4)Michele S.
Met a friend here for a late lunch. Went for the al pastor tacos with all the trimmings. We also enjoyed the salsa and chips. The food was fresh and prompt, so we were both able to get in and out and back to work in good time. The employees were friendly and very nice. The only downside was the parking and the fact that the place wasn't the cleanest inside. I'm thinking maybe the place was a little dirty because they probably just finished a busy lunch service. If I'm in the area, I will probably come back and try the quesadillas or steak tacos.
(3)Marina B.
If there was an option to give them no stars, it would have been just that. I saw all the great reviews on this location so I decided to give them a shot. Went there at about 11 pm and ordered it to go. The food was absolutely TERRIBLE the steak was dry and way overcooked (most likely cooked twice just to heat it up), the ingredients i paid extra for (sour cream, double meat) were nowhere to be seen, the lettuce was soggy..the tortilla itself was very dry. Even the French fries were bad and it doesn't take much to cook good fries.. Worst Los I've ever had in my life and I like to indulge in Los burritos almost every other day if not every day so thats saying something. All in all I will never go to this location again. If you want a good steak burrito, go to any other Los locations. Trust me on this.
(1)DEALS D.
One of my favorite mexican joints. The steak burrito and a mix of chicken and pork it absolutely perfect texture and flavor. Service is always prompt and perfect. Definitely going back.
(5)Courtney C.
I've been to the other LBT, but this is my first time at the Downer's Grove location. I ordered the torta grande, which had breaded steak, ham, cheese, lettuce, beans and sour cream on it. It was comparable to most tortas that I've had before, but I couldn't say that it was great or amazing. It was pretty decent. I came in to pick the order up and I found that the place was a little dirty and disorganized at the time. They have the chips (for dine-in orders) lined up right where you pick up the food. So anyone that picks up their food is now breathing and standing over the chips. It kinda freaked me out and I'm not even really a germaphobe. It was definitely a middle of the road/a-ok experience.
(3)Sara T.
Service is slow, they got my order wrong, decided to charge me extra for the slight price difference, and made me massively late on my lunch break. Speaking from behind the counter food service/cashier experience, when it's a business' service failure, it'd be wise of them to comp the difference rather than nickel and dime the customer they've just inconvenienced. A happy customer is a return customer; an unhappy customer won't be coming back. I won't be coming back.
(2)Donatas D.
--My favorite Mexican restaurant downers grove.And trust me, I am extremely picky about my Mexican food! They have the best burritos !!! It is family run...
(5)Leon K.
I will preface by saying that if a Mexican restaurant does not offer lengua as a taco option, I am hesitant to try it. That being said not only does LBT offer lengua, but tripitas as well. I've been here a handful of times now and have been satisfied every time. I've tried ordering across the menu but I keep coming back for the tacos. I highly recommend the suite of taco options with cilantro and onions. The cesina (salty, smoked beef) is also a treat I haven't typically seen in most restaurants. A side of grilled onions to put on top adds to deliciousness. A couple of tips: - Eat in for the free chips and salsa - Make sure to ask for the additional salsas (I believe it's a salsa verde and chipotle salsa) - The staff does a good job, tips are appreciated. Order with a smile!
(4)Toby C.
The food here can be likened to that of having a spiritual awakening. What's going on in the kitchen at Los Burritos Tapatios is nothing short of culinary mastery. The pollo tacos, they sing to you with their language of flavor. The flavor is endless, as are the chips and salsa. The man behind the counter, with the thousand mile stare. He wears his hat and apron day in and day out, with that stare... You don't mess with a man like that, you just respect his tacos and call it a day. Los Burritos Tapatios, surrender to it.
(5)Matt S.
Chips and salsa are delicious. Chips are nice and thick and the salsa is nice and hot. Use the salsa in whatever food you get for some extra kick. Menu is typical of most fast food restaurants: expect burritos, tacos, tortas, and several entrees. The tortillas you get with your food may seem small but you get a lot of them. Quality is pretty good and the price is right. The place is somewhat small but still a good place to go for some quick Mexican. I've had a server come to the table but I've also seen people ordering at the counter. Slightly confusing but you'll get food either way!
(3)Jin V.
I have been going here for years. The pork tacos well done hits the spot for me. some avocado and jalapenos on the side ...yum Service is great. I most definitely will recommend this place
(4)Jeannie O.
Being from San Diego, CA where every block there's a Roberto's, Rigoberto's, Sergio's, MXN, Lolita's or something that serves Carne Asada Fries.... This place is as close to home in the midwest as I can get. This place does accept credit cards! Open until 2 AM! I recommend the steak or the lengua burrito and ask with onions and cilantro. Otherwise it's tomatoes and lettuce. Also, don't expect to get your horchata or orange bang here, they do not serve it :( And... no... Carne Asada Fries are not served here in the midwest. I think it's a San Diego thing.
(5)Ben C.
I have eaten here many times and the food is ALWAYS superb! I have never had a problem with the staff or the food. If you want Mexican food in the western suburbs, eat here!
(5)Ericka A.
Going to Los Burritos Tapatios is like cheating on your significant other. You do it because you're looking for instant gratification, but you're left feeling dirty and slightly disgusted with yourself. I started seeing a taqueria in Addison. Things were moving quickly and we were getting pretty serious, but we weren't exclusive yet. I like to keep my options open. So when I'm at work and my beloved is all the way over on the other side of the suburbs, I began to lust after others. I went on the prowl for other places and found Los Burritos Tapatios was nearby. Reading the Yelp reviews was like food porn. I had to break me off a piece of that. I came to LBT for lunch and the place was packed, but the ordering line wasn't too long. I stepped up to the register and enthusiastically ordered a taco with grilled steak, a taco de lengua, a taco de lomo (all Mexican style with additional avocada, cheese and crema) and a large horchata. The cashier rang up the order and I immediately knew I was making a mistake when it cost $9.42. I was cheating on my taqueria and I was literally paying for it. The price was a couple dollars more expensive. My to go bag of "shame tacos" was handed to me about 15 minutes later and I sneaked them into my cubicle. There, I made sweet mouth-love to them. I ravaged them and they filled my belly, but my heart felt a little empty. One taco was missing the extra toppings, the horchata was bland in comparison to other places, and the meats just weren't as flavorful. The grilled steak was the best. I paid a higher price for the lengua and lomo. Neither were that great. I don't know if it's how they cook them or the quality of cuts, but I cheated on my taqueria with a far inferior restaurant. I hope La Placita will take me back.
(3)Marty G.
Pork burrito was decent. Good salsa and thick chips if u like them. I prefer thin chips. Very kind service
(3)Christa F.
This place gives you some great hole in the wall with basic good food for a low price! You can't beat it for lunch or a late night snack! I've gone twice now and gotten the Burrito Suizo with everything! What does this mean? I'll tell you! This means that you get your choice of meat, beans, cheese lettuce, and tomato. I also added sour cream and avacados. I swear today the burrito was bigger than on the first visit! They put all of your additions inside of the burrito. Now, they do this for convience and to make it faster. You don't have to get any of these things! Why people are complaining below is beyond me! You asked for it, so that's what you get! Don't ask for everything next time! Duh! Ok, I can't have spicy foods (let's not get into that now), so I love that they do a good basic seasoning on the grilled steak that I got and then gave it a nice char. You can add the 2 different kinds of hot sauce and salsa they offer if you want, but that's all I needed! It was great! I love being able to go somewhere and not have to ask them to cook it a different way based on my dietary needs! Build it your way!
(4)Danny Y.
Lengua may be good for tacos, but it's not really great for a burrito. In any case, I've had better horchata and better tacos, therefore the mediocre rating. The only plus about this place is that it is open late night. Verdict: Great for late nights and not much else.
(3)Kyle B.
Its 3 am you're drunk and NEED a steak burrito. Look no further Los Burritos Tapatios to the rescue! I usually get steak with extra green sauce and its awesome. The nachos are pretty badass as well and they are fucking HUGE. Don't order the nachos expecting a side because they're a meal in themselves. If you're going to Taco Bell or Chipotle instead of Los you are a fucking idiot and deserve those disgusting brown streaks in your underwear that those restaurants are giving you. While this isn't fine dining you won't find a better cheap and fast mexican place around.

(4)Jeff L.
What can I say about this place except EXCELLENTE!!! Great after a night out at the bars, or anytime. This is the only burrito place where I will eat any meat and feel comfortable. Great quality, great prices and good music! The salsa is amazing and so are the peppers and carrots!
(5)Allison H.
Just got out of mass. The boy is craving a breakfast burrito, and none of that McDONALD'S crap. Enter the only walk-in Mexican joint in the area that's open. His chorizo and eggs burrito was HUGE, and at $4.95 one can't complain. He reports that it was delicious. I had tacos- beef and chicken. I'd stick with the beef-yummy! The chicken was a little flavorless. When you eat in, chips and salsa are free, and the salsa is definitely acceptable! We will be returning again, especially for those days when we're craving huge delicious burritos...or maybe we'll just make it a Sunday morning ritual!!
(5)Eliza R.
Go to this location! Skip the lisle location chorizo ground beef and tongue are the highlights. Also pick up a Mexican coke!
(4)Yvonne I.
I was doubtful about how good this place would be when my dad suggested it, but I was more than pleased. Very affordable. Their Burritos are so good, I feel like a pregnant woman when I randomly have cravings for them. Try them, they have late hours and serve breakfast too.
(5)Reid C.
Clean restaurant, friendly staff and standard issue chicken burrito. Nothing really stands out as unique about it. That's not a knock - just strikes me as a missed opportunity. The guacamole is tasty - fresh cilantro, unevenly sized chunks of tomato and no large chunks of onion. Mysteriously, they do not make a pico de gallo in house. Plus side: it was served super hot.
(3)Apple S.
My friend suggested going to this place since we were in need of dinner at 11pm. He had a craving for "the best burritos ever" and took me to this place. I really enjoyed the chimichangas, quesadillas, and horchata. They were definitely the best I've tried, but my only complaint is that the servings are ENORMOUS. There is no way a normal person should ever eat as much as they serve in one sitting -- but apparently some people like that, so, whatever. Service was good, not outstanding. but I suppose you can't be perfect. :D I'm sure I'll be back. (I don't normally expect myself to like a Mexican joint this much, so I was very pleasantly surprised.)
(5)Nancy W.
Don't let the outside of this little restaurant deceive you. It is clean, clean, clean. Employees are friendly and fast. The food here is SUPERB! I love the chips and salsa, the Burrito Grande Suiza with Corizo or veggie style is just excellent. I love this place.
(5)Caitlin G.
great spot for some late night drunk munchies. The burritos are huge and great but do yourself a favor and get pork tacos with cilantro, onion and cheese only. AMAZING!
(4)Jeff K.
Coming from San Diego, California, I have to say that I am not at all impressed. In fact, I am very disappointed that the only way to get a proper Mexican food fix is to wait till sunday and go to the Maxwell Street Market. Anyway, this place lacks je nais se quoi. Why do they have lettuce in their burritos? Iceberg lettuce is a filler, and I don't like it. My verdict of this place is bland and uninteresting.
(2)Jon F.
AKA: Carwash Burrito Place! Chilli Rellenos burritos for the regular burrito price, great fast service and AWESOME food. Just a notch better than El Famous
(5)Jessica D.
Delicious, authentic Mexican food that is cheap! Super accessible on busy Ogden in Downers Grove. I like this location better than the one several miles West in Lisle (in front of Naperville/Lisle Jeep/Hummer).
(4)S P.
No rice in the burrito??...that is definitely not my kind of burrito! I'll just go to chipotle next time :(
(3)Brian M.
Very good place in general. This place is clean, the service is good, and the food is pretty good too. Their tacos are better than their burritos I have to say. The cooks are fast the servers are sweet.
(4)Sarah R.
So. Damn. Good. We used to live right down the street and order take-out all the time. Now we're a bit further away and we don't get it as often, but we'll still make the drive when we want Mexican. The hubby and his brother have been to a few of the other locations and none are as good as Downers Grove. The one in Westmont is much closer to us but we'll still make the drive to DG!
(4)Lauren V.
I've always had a very good meal when I've eaten here. Is it the best burrito I've ever had...probably not, but quite good nonetheless. People I've gone with have had everything from regular beef and pork dishes to exotics like tongue and tripe...and all said they would come back again for a second visit. I would agree.
(3)Brian H.
This is a great Mexican restaurant. If you like to pay a lot and feel special, go to Chipotle, gringo. If you want to be fed well at a cheap price, try this place. Its clean, excellent sit-down service, great atmosphere. If you want the full experiance, get wasted and go here past 2am on weekends. Everyone talks about the burritos (which are good), but I just cant go wrong with a plate of their nachos w/ lett + tom. They always bring you chips and salsa and water free of charge which is another small perk as well.
(5)Michelle Marie R.
Can't 'yelp' it! When I need my fix of cheese n shrimp quesodillas! it hits the spot! Busy...but quick! Good food solid prices!
(3)Dino M.
Was always wondering about this place. Was on my way home from fireworks on the 4th, and everything was closed except Los Burritos. Stopped in for a giant burrito. It was well worth it. Not the fanciest place, but the food is great.
(4)Tommy M.
I live so close I can walk there. I'll start with the bad, which is only the horchata - usually pretty grainy. I'd skip it and go for the Jarritos. Now for the good - the burritos are awesome. There are plenty of other items on the menu, but I've only had the burritos. I usually go for steak or chorizo. If you go with chorizo, ask them to put scrambled eggs in there too. YUM. I'd eat it for breakfast, but I'd probably want to sleep all day if I did. If you go for lunch, I usually eat 2/3 of the burrito and save the rest for later, otherwise you'll go into a food coma. A few friends of mine used to have a rating scale for burrito joints, so here goes...(all are scale from 1-5, 5 being awesome) Girth - 4.5. I've seen bigger, but only from one place. You'll need two hands. Meat-veggie ratio - 4. Sometimes they overload the shredded cheese, but you usually get a good amount of meat in there. Slop factor - 4. Some places the tortilla stays together like glue. This one can fall apart sometimes, so you may want to have a fork nearby. If you get the chorizo, have a healthy stack of napkins next to your place, you're gonna need 'em. That stuff is greasy! Service - 5. They are always smiling, bring you chips and salsa (free), and bring your food to the table if you dine in. Make sure you tip em. Value - 5. For the price you pay, you get a ton more than a lot of places. Gets a bit loud after hours, but then again, what place isn't loud at 2am? (besides a laundromat) Enjoy!
(4)Kim B.
Great prices, tasty steak tacos (the chicken tacos are VERY bland), unlimited chips and salsa (when you dine in) = 3 of my favorite things.
(4)Jackie P.
Cheap, cheap, cheap! It's pretty good Mexican food for really cheap. I always get the nachos with ground beef and beans and they are always really good. I like it when the chips get a little soggy but still stay crunch to and their chips do the trick. The service is fast and the food is always hot. They just get a little confused when it gets really busy and sometimes not everyone's food comes out at the same time, which can make dining with a large group (more than 2 or 3) a little difficult. If you are looking for a more upscale Mexican restaurant this is not the place for you. It's your typcial hole in the wall diner but like I said it's cheap and pretty yummy!
(3)Jen S.
Good food, great service, and a reasonable price. Now if only it was diet friendly!

After moving here from the s. side and having el gallo as the typical taco/burrito place I must say this pretty much comes close. The food is hot and fresh and good! I prefer the Westmont location as it's closer and never packed. This is definitely a great Mexican establishment at a good price.

there is nothing bad i can say about ANY los b's i've ever visited. their mole sauce is delicious, and i always get the cheese enchiladas. nom! they're well priced, and open late which is a big winner for me! each one makes everything slightly different, but they're all great.

It's just not that good. I don't understand the reviews claiming otherwise. I live very close to Los Burritos Tapatios and really wish it was good. I love Taquerias. The Burritos are large and cheap - but beyond that, the flavors are bland. They load them with cheap ingredients, borderline grotesque cheese, and greasy or grisly meat. The Chile Rellano burritos are also not very good. I go here in a pinch sometimes because it is so close and it is open late. It beats Steak and Shake, but that really doesn't say much. I prefer both Taco Express or better yet, the Taco Grill and Salsa Bar located in nearby Westmont. Taco Grill is on Ogden and is delicious. Taco Express is by the tracks off of Cass Ave. BOth are better bets if you are looking for good tasting Tacos, Burritos, and other Mexican treats.
