Alex PyatetskyJune 12, 2018Amazing. As good as “fancy tacos” in any major city and arguably better than some “fancy” México City options. Elevated mexican food, not whatever on a tortilla. A little pricy, but not complaining.
Jamie DunmoreJuly 24, 2019I have never had a bad meal here. My favorites are the margaritas, guac of the day, ceviche, Pastor taco and the Bien Trucha taco. You also HAVE to get the corn and rice with your meal!
Spencer HansenJune 10, 2018This place is incredible! Waitress sneaked us into a 2-person table. We have the ceviche for an appetizer and then crab tacos and Pastor tacos. So good! Drinks are a little expensive, but good.
Kelly HarmantasAugust 15, 2016Order the corn side, just do it. You will thank me after your first bite. Very tasty margaritas. Great tacos, not the best I've ever had, but still really fantastic! 🌮 I would definitely go back!
DebbieOctober 3, 2014Food and drink are fabulous! Had the tilapia fish tacos and carmonares, fresh guacamole and a cucumber margarita...delicious. My new "happy place"!
Linsey JankowskiAugust 3, 2013Eat at the bar! It's first come first served, but you can order off the menu and you get to watch them make the drinks! Beats waiting 45 minutes for a table.
Casey BernerDecember 30, 2011The wait can be ridiculous but go on a non-weekend. Amazing specially tacos like the skirt steak and chicken. Try the shark if you are feeling adventurous. Also famous for their mojitos.
DJ RuffRyd / Hardy BoiiSeptember 4, 2012Tried 3 different tacos. All were awesome! We came on a Tuesday evening at 6pm and only had to wait a couple minutes. Very nice staff and fast service!
Kathie ZieglerJune 8, 2014This place is by far my favorite destination for upscale Mexican! Try the swordfish tacos and a hibiscus margarita!
Rob MowryApril 29, 2016An amazing Mexican experience in the suburbs. Would definitely trek out there again to enjoy this gem.
Kyle FowlerJanuary 2, 2017Grab a torta for lunch. Bread is nice and soft, great sandwich. Don't forget the esquites.- Rob NielsenJanuary 27, 2017Muy Bueno. Upscale and worth it, lines out the door, killer margaritas! One of my favorites.
Everything is wonderful.. Fish tacos are fabulous as are all the others. You can't go wrong here!
Rob CarraraAugust 26, 2012really outstanding upscale mexican. worth a special trip. the recent expansion has made it a little easier to get a table
Gwen GaglioneApril 4, 2016Every taco is fantastic! Corn is great but don't be afraid to have a margarita as well!
el pastor and the pica pica. Every item on the menu is fantastic.
You'll wait for a table but it's worth it! Try the avocado margarita; sounds odd, but it is smooth and oh so good!
Kenneth GMarch 22, 2012The best Mexican food I have ever had. I've recommended Bien Trucha to 9 people and everyone raved how great it was.
Heidi DeMarcoMay 17, 2015Tilapia tacos and margaritas made with tequila that's infused with a habaneros pepper. So good
Sean MoranJune 25, 2014They could pour the cilantro lime sauce on a piece of tree bark with a piece of their portabella mushroom and I'd eat it.
RubenApril 11, 2013All the tacos are great and the margaritas are perfect...kinda small but damn they taste good.- Algonquin Square Apartment HomesMarch 6, 2015We love bien trucha, delicious food and cocktails....worth the drive.
Lesley WinslowAugust 9, 2012Such good food! Guac with watermelon!! And awesome fish tacos! You can't go wrong
Julian KutaJuly 12, 2023Margarita drinks, Bien Trucha tacos use to be delicious year's back, now the meat in the tocó is made who knows when then reheated and served, the taste is very bad, won't go back
Matt SiamiOctober 13, 2013Do yourself a favor and order the Bien Trucha tacos. You'll have a good time.
Mary SmithJuly 15, 2011Prepare for long wait if not middle of afternoon/closed Mon. Try bien trucha & fish tacos and special guacmole of the day.- They may be at the bottom of the menu, but definitely order the de la costa tacos!
- Go out on a limb; try the avocado or cactus lychee margs...you won't be disappointed!
- Every taco is awesome. Get the Bien Trucha tacos at least once in your life. So good.
Lyn ScalzittiAugust 3, 2010The wait in line is worth it. TRY the poblano soup, you will not be disappointed!!
- the shark tacos and monthly special ceviche are both amazing!
