So so good! Every taco we got was amazing. Stopped in for lunch and we were very impressed with the variety of the menu. Tacos are affordable $5 ish each and LOADED up. Two tacos per person was filling. Margs are tasty, $9 for ~12oz. I wish this location had more seating on the main floor. We had a stroller and felt in the way most of the time. Expect a mess when eating, but honestly we didn't care it was so delish!

A sweet taco spot it's bigger than you think dinr forget about the upstairs, and I personally loved the salmon taco but I don't think you can get a bad taco here. Carlita was super nice and informative.

Delicious specialty tacos. Velvet Taco was recommended to me so I gave it a try. This is Tex Mex type of taco with soft shells and interesting combinations. I had the tikka and brisket versions and enjoyed them both. The Tikka has a nice creamy and slightly spicy Tikka sauce that goes extremely well in taco form. The brisket was tender and well seasoned if maybe slightly salty, but that's personal preference. The others I was with got the pulled pork taco and Korean friend rice version and they enjoyed it. The space is very small for such a popular place and the seating is bench style. To go is probably the best option or visit during a non meal time frame. The red velvet cake is delicious. A final note, there is a lot of sauce on the tacos.

Velvet Taco is such a laid-back, super casual spot. Every taco I've tried here has been nothing short of incredible. And the added bonus? They serve some great cocktails too! An all-around fantastic place for a chill place for lunch or dinner.

Good Velvet Taco location in Chicago. We tried their special Farm taco which was good, but would stick with the Tikka. Guacamole and Elote were great as usual.
Most tacos can be done gluten free as long as you get a corn tortilla.

Tried 4 tacos (Mexican Cali shrimp, grilled salmon, Kobe Smash, rotisserie chicken) and all were either too sweet or salty but did like beef Kobe Smash burger. Guacamole and queso dips were good. Upstairs dining was even hotter than downstairs. No air conditioning. 1 Unisex restroom upstairs.

Wow! My 1st time at a Velvet Tacos. Very good fusion & I really liked what they have done with tacos. But I have had better tacos. I loved the Thai curry queso with blue corn chips. Mediterranean Mushroom taco is very good. Not enough seating arrangement. Gets really crowded in the evenings.

Absolutely love this place! You can't go wrong with the blackened shrimp tacos and the grilled pineapple guac is amazing. Very kind staff and cute place to eat with family and friends.

Fast and friendly service. I really like the creativity and variety of options. I really enjoyed the brisket and chicken rotisserie tacos. The fried shrimp taco had too much mayo on it for my liking. Their red velvet cake is delicious and moist.
