    XOCO churros are always fried to order, so they're still really warm by the time they reach your hands. The intense rich flavor of cinnamon and fried dough make them one of the city's best snacks. Leggi tutto

    Tortas filled with chorizo and cheese or braised short rib with pickled jalapeños warmed in a wood-burning oven. Oh, you should probably save room for churros and chocolate. We love you, Rick Bayless. Leggi tutto

    Rick Bayless' restaurant offers better to-go food than every fast food chain combined. Action Bronson-approved; The Sopa de Carnitas is reminiscent of Phó, and the Cochinita Pibil is to die for

    The cherry margarita is so yummy!! Also loved the chips and salsa. There were vegetarian options too. Not many vegan options but I got the woodland mushroom without cheese and it was still great!

    Not your typical Mexican restaurant, in the best way possible. Be prepared to try tortas (Mexican sandwiches). I looooved the Baja Chicken.

    The Ahogada is an excellent choice, esp for your first visit. It’s full of flavors and extremely tasty! The pepito is also delicious! Great service & friendly staff makes this a great place to eat at!

    The cocinita pibil torta is my fave with succulent, spicy pork. Easy with the habanero sauce though. The Saturday roast goat special torta is so yum - yum - yummy, too.

    On gorgeous days and during normal times you got to get here early. Opens at 11:00 and the line will start right away. The tortas and the best. Solid seasonal specials as well.

    Open-face breakfast torta: A slice of bolillo from Labriola is wood-fired until its crust develops black ends. This is slathered in roasted tomato and a bit of black bean, then topped with poached egg Leggi tutto

    Rick Bayless never disappoints! Can't go wrong with Cochinita Pibil, Chicken Tinga, or Cubana torta. The caldos totally hit the spot too. Don't forget to order a churro or a hot chocolate - delicious!

    The best torta is the Milanesa. It is hands down a scrumptious succulent sandwich passed down from a foodie paradise for your taste buds enjoyment!

    OMG those Churros! It's like I died and went to heaven. Regardless if you are there for breakfast, lunch or dinner, you MUST order the churros with chocolate sauce

    Little gem. High end food in chipotle environment. Rojo something special is way to go. Chicken soup special is also totally worth it

    The hazelnut churros (and the churros in general) are delicious. Same for the hot chocolate. Honestly everything I've ever had here has been good, so just order whatever strikes your fancy.

    EVERYTHING is amazing. Love the Pepito & the Abogahda Torta. Do yourself a favor and get the glazed churro. Pistachio & Hazelnut are phenomenal

    The food here was perfect! You can’t go wrong with anything. Got the Milanesa and it was the perfect balance with salt, acid, fried chicken, and a little heat. Sooo good

    If you are looking for something gluten free try the carnitas caldo (meal-in-a-bowl). My daughters shared a bowl. Plenty of tender pork, peppery greens, lime and corn masa dumplings.

    Best lunch in Chicago. Try the Ahogada, it's amazing. The side salad is works great if you want something fresh to the hot sauce.

    Celebrity chef Rick Bayless really knows his way around authentic Mexican ingredients. The tortas are incredible – especially the goat-based Barbacoa one, if they're offering it. WinstonWanders.com

    The chorizo tlayuda!!! It’s amazing. We were in Oaxaca not too long ago, and while those were great, somehow this was better! Never thought I’d say that. Get the tlayuda!

    The best torta sandwiches here. Flavor explosions galore. Do not skip getting a churro, the chocolate sauce is to die for & they come out fresh and warm. Margarita was just ok here.

    The signature Mexican tortas are loaded with meats like Baja chicken, ahogada (pork carnitas), and pepito, while meal-in-a-bowl caldos and crispy churros are also noteworthy.

    Get the Aztec bean-to-cup chocolate, with fresh-ground chocolate, water, chile, and allspice in a perfect drink. Pair it with the best huevos rancheros you've had outside Mexico.

    Busy, noisy place. Efficient service. I had a red pozole soup : it was well served, tasty and spicy. Unfortunately the chicken in the soup was cut in dices and not soft and shredded as it should.

    Nowhere else can you get a torta as expertly constructed or a cup of hot chocolate made from cocoa beans roasted in house.

    Expect to wait at least 20 minutes for seats on any given day. Love getting churros to dip in a cup of champurrado (Mexico City thick hot chocolate) and the goat barbacoa torta.
