Yuuuuum. Superrrr good food, quick service, and inexpensive. Just what I like. I called in my to-go order for a carne asada burrito and was told "give me 5 minutes." Wow, that is quick. Got there, paid, and was asked if I wanted any to-go sauces. Heck yes. Both please. The burrito itself was flavorful AF! The carne asada was tender and juicy, with a hint of smokiness. Loved it. My only gripe was that there wasnt any avocado :( Here I was surprised that the description had avocado without having to pay extra but nope, none was to be found in my burrito.. Maybe cause its out of season? But "this is America and I want it now" Well, no worries, cause it was still delicious. Excited for my lazy days of not packing a lunch so I can come back here! Things to note: -They accept Samsung Pay!! (gotta get my points if you have a Samsung phone and dont have SP, get on it!! Message me for a referral code :D) -Taco Tuesdays! $2 tacos on Tuesday! Only a .50 cent savings but thats a whole $1 if you buy 2! -They have lengua tacos but no lengua burritos.. interesting..

In the mood for some Mexican breakfast and saw reviews and excited for this. I had the steak and egg tacos and goat. I thought the steak was good but not as flavorful as I hoped it would be. The tortilla was soggy when I got it. The goat was on point good flavor and definitely can taste the tender meat. My wifes breakfast burrito was not good she said she wouldnt go back. We got carry out so could have affected the experience.

Amazon food and a great staff! Make sure to grab some fish tacos when they have them and try their specials. They are constantly coming up with new things and each one is more delicious than the last! If youre coming for lunch, dont be discouraged by the line because its like a well oiled machine back there and my order is usually ready within 5min or so. Much love to the hardworking Jarabe staff ❤️

stumbled randomly upon this fantastic little gem, made my week. Thanks Chicago for great little places like this. Steak was brillinat, egg tacos perfect.. all at the recommendation of the chef/owner/super cool cashier. Some days I hate trying to figure out what I want and nothing is worse than a restaurant that cant help you decide. This place made life good again.

The staff here werent just nice, they all seemed like genuinely good people. That alone made me want to go back but the food is delicious. Its a smaller place that closes in the early evening so you may need to plan your visit or try delivery but I absolutely plan on visiting again to try more of their menu items. I recommend the birria.

Very nice staff, very nice food. Their breakfast burrito is fantastic; thanks for introducing me to arugula, guys. Something that might be overlooked is that the salsas Jarabe offers are also very unique and delicious. They come as mild/medium/hot but each has its own unique flavor profile.

Such a great experience using them! I hosted a rooftop party and thought the street food fare would be a nice touch. Great food, generous portions and they came and set up all the catering! Everyone asked me where did I get this great food from! I definitely recommend!

Hands down the best restaurant in the tri-taylor area. Everything Ive had on the menu is terrific. The Carne Asada tacos are my favorite. If they didnt close so early everyday I would probably end up going here more times a week than I am comfortable admitting.

The chilaquiles Verdes for 8 bucks was a large plate with a generous helping of chorizo and two perfect, yolky, fried eggs. I was very pleased with how courteous the staff was. They were out of a few items, but such is the life of the small business.

Tried the Carne Asada, the Al Pastor and the Birria. All were excellent! Been back to try the Carne Asada torta... The meat is tender and flavorful. The chips were nicely deep fried to a crispness... Quality joint!

Teddy treats you right, whether youre there for hangover chilaquiles or just some tacos for lunch. Dont miss the home-made chips and guac and be sure to get a horchata coffee when youre there for brunch.

Oh man what a place. Reminds me of authentic street food culture while I was in that place. Place is usually super crowded bcos of the good food they serve there. Some of the best tacos Ive ever had

Tacos are hit or miss depending on your selection (I prefer the steak based ones) but the sauces are pretty good. Goes from 4 star to 5 star for the guacamole, service, and cheap prices.

Proof that great things come in small packages. Food is always fresh and seasoned perfectly. Atmosphere and customer service is warm and inviting. Gotta try the breakfast tacos.. OMGGG!

Jake Kolbus

The food is excellent. The staff is very nice. The breakfast tacos are my favorites so far, but everything is delicious. Small space, but they have great food and Dark Matter coffee.

Our office had Jarabe cater an office lunch and everyone enjoyed the food immensely. We would absolutely order from them again. Delicious food, on time delivery and great staff.

2nd time there, got the tacos and they where quick and delicious. Will definitely be coming back, hope they stay, this location has changed hands quite a few times.

Excellent tacos. Kind of wish the Carne asada was cut into thinner slices but the meat tasted great. Hibiscus tea was refreshing.

Never dissatisfied. Been their a few times already. Still exploring the menu choices. P. S. Bring back the California burrito!!!

Super disappointed I didnt realize the breakfast tacos are available all day, but the tinga was pretty good consolation.
