This is a great little Mexican spot serving up hot fresh food quickly. Their prices are very fair and portions are good. I'm a big fan of their Al pastor tacos. Fajitas are always good option also.

Chavas has been there for me on many a wayward night in my past always serving as a good choice when options for true late-night sustenance near Humboldt Park/Ukrainian Village dwindle down to just a few. So it was good to see that after so much time of not stumbling in that the place still holds up. Now I can't speak for all of their offerings but what I do know is that you can get decent steak and pastor tacos, sopes, and burritos at Chavas. Their salsas are a little thin but they have a good taste so I don't mind. There are a couple of bars with high chairs for eating inside but the place gets crowded quickly so you're probably better off just getting your food to go and inhaling it in your car. There's usually plenty of parking out front on Grand Ave but they also have a big parking lot if needed. The staff are quick and professional and friendly enough. They have a good system in place for keeping things moving along. Just make sure you keep an ear open for your order number.

They have delivery until 10:00 in Lincoln Park in Chicago 10:00 p.m. good burritos although it's hard to mess up a burrito if you got sour cream in my opinion Sincerely honestly and peacefully lovingly and prayerfully Mary Donnelly d o n l e y

My favorite to-go Mexican place. The portions are large, food is tasty, and consistent. I have been coming here for 10+ years and have never had a issue. The staff is polite and the food is FAST. It's really busy and good for a quick super casual lunch and even better for take out.
