El Asador Restaurant

Excuse me for the missing pieces cuz I ate majority of the birria pizza. Before I came home, I just had to taste them. I had the birria ramen also, everything was good. I got to try them again very soon.

Very small place. Food is really good. I've had a little bit of everything here at some point. Not much parking. Don't park in the Mr. Submarine lot. They will tow your car. Reasonable prices.

This was my first time having quesabirria, and it definitely did not disappoint! I sort of understand the point of them being a bit pricey for the portions given, but the taste and presentation was definitely on point!

I see this place has a 3.9 rating. Hmmm, I didn’t think it was bad. Who cares if the place is small? I thought it was cozy. Employees were nice and took care of my order pretty quick. Waited maybe almost 10min. perhaps? I picked up an order of 3 quesabirria tacos and an order of rice and beans on the side, came with the consume. Tacos were normal size, right amount of meat and cheese and a small cup of consume, believe me it is more that enough unless you’re chugging it with every bite of your taco. It was definitely flavorful. I think I saw a sign that said they’re #9 in Chicago for quesabirria? Maybe so, but truth be told this is the second spot I’ve tried for quesabirria in the city. Here’s the negatives: Not enough cebolla and cilantro to cover 3 tacos. It was more cebolla than cilantro. And the side order of rice and beans was literally a child like serving. You can’t be tight with the rice and beans. They also gave me 1/4 lime wedge, I needed more juice for the other two tacos. You can’t be tight with the limes. I saw a review of someone who took a pic of their takeout container and they had more rice and beans! I was a little jealous. I’d go back since I live in the area. My total was $16. I do have a go to place for quesabirria, but that’s for a different review. Excuse the pic but I was hungry lol.

this lives for the hype, if you are looking for non goat beef tacos quasobirra with the dipping soup. They do not skimp on the meat and the food is cooked to order. 1 taco is 4 dollars but if you get the 4 quasobirra plate you save like 3 bucks. Im not convinced that these are the best, but they are good and worth dishing out the 💰...

Wife took me here to come and eat, I have to say the food was absolutely amazing the waitress was nice the prices wasnt bad Ive seen worse

There was more fat than meat in each taco. They also forgot part of our order. Each taco was filled with very very little meat and so many chunks of fat that we could not finish it.

Quaint little space, with a great atmosphere to have a nice quiet lunch. we got the quesabirra special to go. It was a tad bit soggy but the flavor made up for it. Would recommend

I'm giving 4 stars since I did not go pick it up to review the service or actual restaurant, but solely have a review of the Birria Pizza. I would give that a 3.5 It looked amazing, but my only qualms were that the consume wasn't spicy at all and that the food was cold. They gave a large window of 10 mins to 30 mins when it would be ready so when picking up at 30 mins it was already getting cold. It's def still worth trying it out!

Food isn't bad. But don't be a gringo. They treat you like shit if you don't speak Spanish.

The food is delicious! Hot and fresh! Service falls a bit behind but that's due to it being so busy. But super friendly and welcoming. The menu is easy to read and the pictures help. The vibe is great for family and friends.

Me and my family came to eat here a few days ago and the food, customer service was amazing!! the cook was extremely clean and the plates look exactly like the menu. i have gone to the other location on 47th and it cannot compete with this one! they need more recognition and i would love to say good job to our lovely waitress marcela who ever hired her needs a raise! i also love the other waitress but i forgot her name lol she gave us our check but she was so sweet and put on some tv for our kids since they were so loud anyway love this restaurant

I tried them again and had the BIRRIA RAMEN this time, it was little salty for my taste and the noodles were a little over cooked. The staff is very friendly. I called to place my order over the phone and was informed that I would have to provide my credit or debit card information AND be charged extra for using a card. NO THANKS, I'll just come in and pay cash. My wait wasn't too long, maybe 10 minutes or so. YES, I'll be back, don't know what I'll get the next time I go.

The 4-pack Birria Tacos were so freaking good. OMG! You can top it with onions and cilantro, lime, and that delicious green sauce they send it with....then dunk it in the consommé. This was my first time trying it and it was so bomb. I'll take pics next time and update this. GET THE BIRRIA!!! It will not disappoint!

Ordered the combo! The food here was very good! 3 quesadilla tacos with rice and beans & small soup! Will be coming back again!

Tried the birria tacos, birria ramen and horchata. The tacos were really good, got the consome to dip it in. Their green salsa to die for! So delicious and flavorful. The ramen was a new addition to the menu, would recommend eating right away so the noodles don't get so soggy. Lastly the horchata was delicious, loved the flavor and it wasn't gritty. Can't wait to come back and try other tacos.

It being my first time coming to try this place I can honestly say this was a horrible experience. The lady who took my order "Edith" was extremely rude and never called to tell me my order was ready. When she said she would. My boyfriend and I waited outside in our car over 30 min and when I finally went inside to get my order I told her I was waiting for her call...she ripped the tag from my order and walked away. I waited over 30 min for food and the least she could've said was sorry. I then called to speak with a manager she answered and put me on hold. If this is the customer service I'm going to receive then I'm never coming here again. Do better. As for the food, it's cold and not what I expected.

It's a small restaurant, well clean, the food was great and there horchata was pretty good too, The staffs are super friendly, they are even kind enough to give you a free concha when you choose to dine in, it's a bit pricey, they charge you a $0.75 fee if you use your credit card to pay (not a fan of that....) Overall good place to take your family or friends out to a Latin restaurant.

Very good pricing for taco combo. Only available Monday to Thursday. Comes with mango or Jamaica drink. Mango drink is refreshing. $6.99 for 3 tacos. Comes with everything pictured. Very good deal. Recommend. Very spicy green sauce.

Very disappointed at costumer service, I've placed an order on their website and told us it would be within 45 minutes to an hour but 2 hours passed by and I called to check up on the order and the women on the phone told me there internet was down and told me to place the same order at there other location and hung up on me. I've called again and they gave me a different excuse saying my order was too large and they only have one cook at the moment and no manger was at the store. So 2 hours wasted because I thought they were cooking my order and I have family from Texas who were waiting as well telling them this was a fantastic restaurant but I couldn't believe the customer service I was given

Very good place to grab a quick bite to eat. The tacos are great and the specials for the week are also economic.

This place is delicious and cheap!! Service was great! I had the taco asador and a gordita. Their agua de Horchata was sweet but not overly done. They have combos Monday-Thursday in which I typically get a torta, French fries and fountain drink for 7.99!
