This is a very terrible place my first reason to hate this establishment is because when my father started speaking Spanish the manager started insulting me and my father which is very disrespectful because you are insulting a paying customer that is paying nearly 50 dollars for 5 small burritos and when your telling that customer that his vocabulary is wrong then your overall a terrible person and a restaurant owner. Aside from being basically told that you dont talk right the food is terrible some of the worst Mexican food Ive ever had in my life the fries are garbage and the meat it self has an authentic flavor of truck stop bathroom poop crust and the smell of fecal matter. So if dont fell like being insalted like some sort of animal and expected to pay 40 dollars for trash go to some place else.

I went to this location last night and ordered a chimichanga. They put the lettuce in the sandwich and fried it. Who eats cooked lettuce???!!!! I called to tell them how disappointed I was and to find out why this was done in the first place. I was told that is the way that they make them. That is completely ridiculous and unacceptable to me. I then was told to bring back the sandwich and I could get another. Like I am going to save the sandwich to bring back the next time I go there or come back out of my home to get an exchange right then. HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!!

Good mexican food, I have discovered has been hard to find here in Chicago. But of the places Ive been to El Famous Burrrito is pretty good. Located in Elmhurst in what I think was once a Pizza Hut or McDonalds, these guys do a steady business. On the day I stopped to pick up food for la familia, they were really busy. Truth is, its still not as good as the Mexican joints back in Cali, but they offer the pickled carrots and jalapenos as a side dish and I JUST LOVE that stuff. Im also a fan of their house salsa. If youre in the area, stop in. Im sure youll like it.

Horrible horrible horrible owner! Messed up our company order I called to complain told me to come back and He will remake did not apologize told me we are all human mistakes happen and to deal with it! Huffed and puffed the entire time and when I told him we wouldnt order from them anymore he told me thats ok and hung up! The lady that works there is the sweetest but the manager/owner is so unprofessional you would think being the owner you would value your business more.

Tuesday & Thursdays are taco specials $1.40 each they are fast and a good amount of meat, problem is its a hot spot so tables are messy and unorganized, red & green salsa are hard to get filled on the table. Good quick food I suggest the burrito can never go wrong

Great food at great prices. Ive never left hungry. They have a nice open area for dining. Its a great place for small groups too. The service is always fast and friendly while providing food thats made to order, and accurate when it comes to requests.

Not a bad little place. Good prices for the portions, more importantly the food is tasty. Usually a few people in line and waiting for their orders, but the staff get your order up in good time.

Fatty steak tacos, no flavor, chips are hard as a rock. Guac was fresh but no flavor. Even there sauces have no flavor. Bring salt/pepper with you if you are going to eat hear.

I didnt think the quality was quite as good as the location we usually visit, but I consider El Famous a must whenever in the Chicago area.

In my opinion they have the best fast food tacos and burritos in the area. Quick service, not particularly friendly, but good overall.

This place is a fantastic for a late night meal, or quick lunch. Not the greatest Mexican food I have had, but certainly not bad at all.

Ton of gristle on their steak burrito meat. Seasoning a little too salty. Small burrito for 5 bucks. Horchata is okay nothing special.

Usually love this place. Lots of gristle in the steak. Staff was a little on the rude side. Prior to this, it was great.
