Bar Takito is an amazing place for food lovers. Not only does the restaurant excel at producing uniquely delicious food ensembles but it also is a very lively place with live music, fun decor and amazing bar concoctions. Highly recommend for dates, drinking with friends, or even sharing outrageously good food with friends.
Bar Takito was an awesome place to celebrate my 50th Birthday with family and friends. I enjoyed everything. My favorites were the Cucumber Margaritas and the Lamb Tacos. The wait staff was very attentive and accommodative. The music and atmosphere was lovely. I highly recommend this place! 😀
The atmosphere and food was very good. Got the truffle sort of skillet and it was phenomenal. Also, really enjoyed the bottomless mimosas. The only thing I’d say is that our waiter did take a while to take care of us. However, it was a hot and busy day. Nice place!
Awesome place for food and margaritas, especially on Taco Tuesdays and happy hour. 7 dollar specials on good tasting margs. The presentation is cool on them to.
Very basic Mexican spot. The service was great, but the backless seating was uncomfortable and many of the dishes were lackluster in taste (although visually stunning). I'd recommend the guacamole, shrimp tacos, and a simple margarita for the best experience.
I love this place. The food is to die for, and chef Yani always has the most amazing and unique specials. The cocktails and agua frescas are great too.
This was a WONDERFUL stop. Our waitress, Shania (I think) was the sweetest waitress and so kind. They had a large party come in and she still did so well tending to our table too. She made our visit so fun! Next time I’m back in Chicago, we will have to come back.
Had a great experience at Bar Takito. Pretty cool decor and amazing service. We tried the regular and mushroom queso fundido as well as the Chips and Salsa appetizers, and you really can't go wrong here, everything was absolutely amazing. Our group got a bunch of tacos as well and we loved them all, my favorite was the steak taco with the crispy shoestring onions. Also, if you like a good margarita, theirs is absolutely killer. Will be coming back!
Dined in with a brunch reservation. Friend arrived early and rather than letting them wait for everyone to arrive, staff immediately sat them down and started the countdown on bottomless brunch. Would have happily waited outside for everyone if we had known they were going to do this. Food was tasty and portions were good.
I went with my girlfriend and it was a very good experience overall! We made a reservation and initially the host took us to a very uncomfortable table but we asked to be change and they nicely helped us. I gotta say food was very good but portions are VERY small, all you can drink mimosas were amazing!
I recommend you going here but suggest the restaurant to work on those details :)

Fabulous experience. I went for Restaurant week, but I would definitely go back. The queso fundido was not only fun, but delicious. The maitake mushrooms were well flavored and a nice bite. The cheese was complex and delicious with every bite. The shrimp ceviche had plenty of shrimp and flavor with the lime and cilantro perfectly balanced. The Chilean Sea Bass Al Pastor was phenomenal--they managed to elevate and enhance but not overwhelm the sea bass taste. It was flaky and cooked to perfection, with the pineapple adding a nice refreshing taste. The Pulpo a la Plancha was one of the first times I had actually tender and delicious octopus. The meal was enhanced by our waiter, Fernando (I think), explaining the process of how the food was prepared and what we were eating. Then dessert -- the pineapple upside down cake is worth going for all on its own. It's a moist cake covered in Mexican caramel with pineapple chunks and a passion fruit curd that is indescribable in its deliciousness. The margaritas were also quite good. They take Jose Cuervo traditional and make it better then add it to the margarita-- making a smooth, deceptively strong drink.
Staff was very welcoming and pleasant
Food was pretty good. (Carnitas Taco FtW!!)
