Texan Taco Bar is located in the heart of Chicago’s vibrant West Loop neighborhood, overlooking Randolph street with picturesque views of the downtown skyline from our open rooftop. We take pride in the quality of our service, ingredients, and consistency, whether that be one of our famous fresh-squeezed margaritas, our signature specialty tacos, or the TexMex favorites scratch-made in our kitchens every day.

    Food and drink are mediocre. Server was an order taker and payment processor, that’s it. Took forever for her to come to the table. It was so loud in there that you can’t hear the people you’re with. We had 2 rounds of drinks, ate our dinner and went elsewhere for that reason.

    The staff was very friendly, the food arrived very quickly, and everything was delicious! We will definitely return in the summer when the windows are fully open. It has a bit of a rooftop vibe on one side.

    The host downstairs wasn’t very pleasant. The host upstairs was absolutely nice! We sat at the bar, drinks weren’t good we didn’t even finish them. The guacamole had no flavor, and the tacos were either dry or lacked flavor. Overpriced and not worth it at all. Won’t be back.

    It was a nice place. The location is great being on Fulton market Street. Relatively large but was pretty quiet for a weekend vibe. Mainly high table seating so keep that in mind! Overall good experience. Quesadilla sizes are definitely huge so expect to share!

    The drinks were decent but when telling the waiter about severe nut allergy he made jokes about allergy and said she couldn’t eat anything. Then was very wish washy on answer if there is contamination with nuts and would not give a straight answer without joking. We left after the encounter due to the inconsistency in answers and lack of seriousness to the matter. I have been there before and service is usually decent but disappointed after this. Highly don’t recommend going there if you have nut allergy.
