" XOCO is the epitome of where to go for authentic Mexican street food in Chicago. The spicy chicken churro sandwich is utterly delicious—a perfect balance of sweet and savory that I can't stop thinking about. The staff was super helpful, and we didn't wait long for our food, even on a busy evening. Plus, the vibrant decor truly creates a Mexican vibe that makes you feel right at home. Highly recommended! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a pleasant dinner at XOCO, but the experience was not without flaws. The ambiance was cozy, but it felt a little rushed given how busy the restaurant was. While the food was flavorful, the portion sizes seemed a bit smaller than expected for the price. The service, however, was friendly and efficient. I think I may give it another try during off-peak hours! " (*Curated Review*)

" What an amazing experience! It's hard to pick just a few dishes because everything sounded so good. We ultimately decided on the pepito torta and the churro chicken sandwich. I can't say enough how incredible they were. Every bite was packed with flavor! The only downside was the wait time, but it was worth it. The staff was pleasant, which made the wait a bit more bearable. An excellent find in Chicago that I’ll keep coming back to! " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my first visit to XOCO, and it did not disappoint! The food was so fresh and flavorful, especially the shrimp tacos. I could taste the authentic spices and techniques used. The only downside was the atmosphere was a bit cramped, but that's expected for a popular spot. Service was attentive, and I appreciated how quickly the food came out. I’m definitely planning to return soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited XOCO with my family and had an overall wonderful experience. Every dish we ordered—from the tacos to the tortas—was bursting with flavor. The service was prompt, and we appreciated the recommendations from our server. However, it did get quite busy, and the noise level made it difficult to talk at times. I recommend going during off-peak hours to enjoy the fullest experience. All in all, it’s definitely a place I’ll return to! " (*Curated Review*)

" I loved the ambiance and friendliness of the staff, but the food was a bit underwhelming compared to what I expected based on the reviews. The tacos were tasty, but I felt they could use a bit more seasoning. Service was efficient, and our server was kind, but the overall experience was just okay. I might try again and order something different. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely in love with XOCO! The churros were to die for, and I could eat them for every meal. I tried the milanesa torta, and it was everything I hoped for. The staff was incredibly friendly, and we didn’t have to wait long for our table or food. If you’re looking for authentic Mexican food, this is the place to be. I can’t wait to bring my friends next time! " (*Curated Review*)
