Big Wig Tacos & Burritos - Authentic Mexican Evanston

Delicious! We had the fire grilled chicken tacos and quesadilla! The hot sauces complimented the flavor of the dishes as well! Would definitely eat there again!

Came here for lunch by myself, the tacos were perfect, rice & beans were too salty in my opinion. $17.86 for 3 chicken tacos and a side of rice & beans. I told the cashier I wanted to dine in, but I’m confused why he brought the tray to the table in front of me but I had to pick up my tray from the counter to bring to my table. It’s not a good look for service consistency.

My chicken burrito was soooooooo good, and and surprisingly big for the price. The place was clean and had quick service. The workers were very nice and friendly. Bathroom was clean. Everything was great, I'm definitely going back!! I would have taken a picture, but I was hungry and it was too good to stop!

Never felt so welcome to start this review. The cashier was a doll and genuinely one of the best Mexican food spots I've ever had. The steak was above and beyond and once again the hospitality made me feel like I've gone there for years.

First time visit, greeted with a smile. Cooked to order. Got a veggie burrito. The ingredients were VERY fresh, proportioned well and I like that they crisp up the tortilla just a little bit. Oh and that red salsa, amazing! This is what downtown Evanston has been missing! Blows the competition off the planet! And they are open late on weekends. Can't wait to work my way through the menu!

We had a great meal at Big Wig Tacos and Burritos in Evanston. The menu could not be any simpler or easier to understand. First, you pick from Skirt Steak, Barbacoa, Avocado, Chicken, Veggies, Chorizo, or Mahi Mahi as your protein. Then you pick your vessel: Tacos, Burritos, Quesadillas, Nachos Bowls, or Tortas. Lastly, you can order a side of: Rice and Beans, Chips and Salsa, Chips and Guacamole, or Chips and Queso. They also offer fountian drinks, Horchata, Hibiscus Tea, and Jarritos. We ordered a bowl with Skirt Steak, Rice and Beans, Lettuce, Tomatoes, Sour Cream and 2 Cheeses. Our other order was 3 Skirt Steak Tacos with Onion, Cilantro, and Cheese with a side of Chips and Guacamole(one order is enough for two). The bowl already comes with rice and beans, so you do not need to order a separate side of this. The steak was cooked very well, and the portions in the bowl were large. In fact, I almost did not finish my bowl, but it was so good that I managed to finish it. To drink, we had a Hibiscus tea that was really delicious and refreshing. Plus, a Horchata that was as good as it gets. Really delicious drinks! All orders are made fresh to order in an open kitchen. We were pleasantly surprised to find out that they have two other locations, one in River North and one in Logan Square. Owner/Chef Jose Estrada explained how he came up with the concept and recipes for the restaurant, and boy, are we glad that he did. A really great family inspiration. We will definitely be returning to Big Wig Tacos and Burritos and checking out their other 2 locations, too!

Wow wow wow !!!! finally another fast, quick yummy Mexican restaurant in Evanston! So I ordered here tonight for dinner on their online portal and the food was ready in 10 minutes. The staff was very welcoming and accommodating to anything additional I may need. I got 2 chorizo tacos, a chicken fajita, and a side of rice and beans. the chorizo tacos were absolutely beautiful, by far my favorite !! The chicken fajita was great too ! The rice and beans are pretty standard but I am glad I can get them somewhere quick and close ! the salsa is very flavorful but it is not very spicy. (still recommend!) The price is pretty reasonable, as the portions are big. The place is pretty cute, id come eat in it sometime. I think it shines more as a takeout though. It also surprises me they are open so late but its pretty cool since pretty much all of else of evanston are early snoozers. I will be coming back frequently!! :)))

Landed super late in ORD after a delayed flight, checked into our hotel and found this place on Uber eats. One might say we are crazy for not sticking to McDonald's or Wendy’s at 1am and I’m so glad we didn’t. This place blew me away, the salsas are out of this world good, very nice flavor. Queso was thoughtfully packaged with foil around it to keep it warm. The burrito was fresh and delicious I wish I wasn’t so sleepy and finished the entire thing. The tacos also so phenomenal and worth a try. Thankful for a warm meal and delicious food, 10/10
