Tapicozza — Restaurant in Oakbrook Terrace

UPDATE ON 04/24/2024: I’m afraid I need to update my review of this place. Stopped by on Sunday. There is no option to just order plain tap water, but bottled water (Nestle PureLife) costs $1.50, plus tax? And $3 for a Jarrito? What else am I going to drink? My wife even said: “ugh, I should have remembered to bring a bottle of water since they charge for it now.” The gentleman attending was very kind and served us tortilla chips and salsa at no cost. But one can’t help but remember these are generally complimentary at most Mexican Food restaurants. The credit card fee seems a tad bit excessive. I’m truly sorry, but I don’t feel I’m getting a good value here - except for the pizza. The pizza is a great value at $9.99. Which is why I’m only taking away 1 star. I’ll definitely give them another chance soon to see if improvements have been made.

Original review: Quality meat, sufficient limones, multiple delicious salsa options for your tacos. And, quite the tasteful, cheesy pepperoni pizza. All at a reasonable price. Comfy...

Update: I am enjoying my experiences and food there more every time I go there. The owners are the nicest people and always carry a positive attitude. This is my new favorite Mexican restaurant in the area. This is the Best Mexican food in the area. One time the online order screwed up and the lady gave me a free drink called Horchata. It is my new favorite Mexican drink! You all need to try it! I recommend this place to everyone.

Delicious food. The steak was even marinated. I was slightly upset that they ran out of tortas, but was greatly satisfied by their steak burrito dinner as the alternative. The man up front was very nice and generous with the sauces. He even offered that I try all the different sauces, so I did. Very polite customer service and fast service. I can tell they put a lot into their food prep and presentation. Good job and keep up the good work. Keep the quality food up and customers will continue rolling in. We will be coming...

Very good! Asada tacos are great- the meat is quality and not cooked to oblivion. Dine in if possible; tastes so much better when hot and the experience is better (my take out didn't include any lime slices but dine-in did).

The star of the show is the creamy green salsa, which they call Tapicozza. Fresh, light, delightfully and unabashedly spicy- I'm not ashamed to admit I poured what was left into my mouth right from the plastic ramekin.

This last trip (pictured) I ordered 2x asada tacos, one with onion and cilantro and one with lettuce and tomato. The mixture resulting in my bowl after I'd eaten both tacos was so good that next time I'll order with both.

I eat a lot of tacos in a lot of different places and these are some of the best I've had; do recommend,...
