Huaraches Mexican Restaurant

Really, really, really great asada nachos. The guac & asada were perfect. The cheese and the sauce were great, too. Prob my fav nachos I've had!

Traje a mi hija y a mi sobrino aquí después de una actuación y con los estómagos muy vacíos. No hace falta decir que nos fuimos de aquí completamente satisfechos y recibimos un servicio excelente. Hermoso espacio también.

Very meh. My date and I went here on a Monday night since, to our dismay, Ja'Grill's kitchen closed as we walked in and Thai 55 no longer took dine-in. Huaraches was right next to Thai 55 and open til 11, so we went in. The kid who seemed to be running the place told us to sit where we liked. We wanted the table by the window which was dirty and the kid said, "Yeah fine I need to clean it." What's with the attitude, homie? He proceeded to stroll around the restaurant at a leisurely pace, dropping off checks, chatting with the other worker (who wasn't working, btw) and taking his sweet time. He finally comes over and begrudgingly cleans the table. Then ambled back to grab a couple of menus and nonchalantly drop them off. Nothing irks me more than dismissive service. But since we were hungry and there was no place else to go late on a Monday night, we stayed. The menu was decent enough, had all the traditional Mexican favorites, so I ordered a chicken flautas dinner and a Jamaica Jarrito. He order the steak burrito and a fresh cantaloupe juice. Our food arrived and while my dinner was plated nicely it was rather uneventful. There was hardly any chicken in the flautas and they were dry and unseasoned. My date's burrito looked rather tasty albeit the lack of garnish and accompaniments. Also, I chose not to be all up in his plate like I usually do in dates so I can't confirm if the taste matched the looks. I did taste his cantaloupe juice and it was very tasty and refreshing. That and the guacamole were the highlights of my dinner. . Step yo game up Huaraches. There are of too many amazing Mexican restaurants in Pilsen and in the far eat side that people can and will go to instead of being subjected to this mediocrity. Being in Hyde Park, you have the perfect opportunity to make a name for yourself by delivering better food and better service. I won't be back.

What a breathtaking experience coming here and lots of colorful and mind-blowing flavors. If you want to have the most amazing time of your life either after a long day at the Museum of Science and Industry or just a normal typical day. This is definitely a great place to eat, You need to come to Huaraches Mexican Restaurant located in the East Hyde Park neighborhood. Eating at Huaraches took me to another world that i haven't yet experience. The food was fresh and tasted amazing. Upon our arrival, we were able to find available seating right away. They brought us chips and hot home made salsa. I order una refrescante agua de jamaica mediana or Medium Hibiscus cold tea, two steak and one al pastor tacos with everything. Once the food arrived, I was astonished by the side of the tacos, They were huge, they were at least three sizes bigger than a normal taco and full of meat. My first bite was so good, and good is not even enough of a word to describe how the tacos were. With every bite my mouth was experiencing punches full of colorful flavor and taste. The price is average for three tacos and if you are coming from the north side or west side or any where from Chicago, If you're in the mood for some authentic Mexican food, this is the place for you and the drive is worth it.

This is my GO-TO Mexican food spot when I'm on the south side. I won't even consider anyone else. It's a small family-owned business. The serving size is more than enough to fill up - especially if you're dining in. While the wait times are a bit longer, it's no issue because everything is made fresh to order.I love their pineapple and mango beverages. They use real fruit. As of now, it's BYOB. But I can't wait until they get their liquor license. If the margaritas are of the same quality as their Mexican cuisine, it's going to be amazing! This restaurant will always have a special place in my heart because it's where my partner and I had our first date! :o)

Solid food but super understaffed and slow. Only one waitress for the whole busy restaurant. They also don't serve any alcohol.

I'd been wanting to try Huaraches for quite some time, but never made it to any of their locations for whatever reason. Finally, one night I decided to order from the Hyde Park location after deciding I didn't want to cook. I placed an order via Uber Eats for two taco dinners. The bill came to about $28 (food only) which was fairly reasonable. We ordered steak tacos on corn tortillas. The dinner included rice and beans. Honestly, the food left something to be desired. The quality of the meat wasn't that great and the rice and beans lacked flavor. The beans were watered down and the lettuce seemed old. Overall, the food just wasn't that good.That was the first and last time I'll eat at Huaraches.

The food and presentation is very good except for the steak they use....every bite is gristly. I recently bought the lunch special with 3 steak tacos. I had to spit out every other bite of the steak. Needless to say, I stay away from the steak now. The pork, chicken and shrimp are absolutely delicious.The service is great and the ambience is very pleasant.

Corn tortillas freshly made, best I've had outside of LA. The salsa served with the chips was also amazing, house-made with a blend of roasted peppers and a good amount of heat. It isn't a fancy place, but the food was authentic, and this customer was very very happy.

me and some friends were in there for a quick lunch because we had to get back to work at a certain time and we also asked the server several times if we can get it to go we ended up getting our food 45 MINUTES later and late to where we had to be
