Frontera Fresco

food is o.k..youre paying for the brand and location..I can find tasty tamales at $2 at Taqueria Milagro..or Pilsen..

This is my go to place in ORD airport. I am so glad that they have a downtown location near where I work. Cubana Torta is always my favourite！

A awesome selection of food especially the sushi restaurant!

7/10 on the tacos. They had good flavor and is an excellent lunch, but not a place I would go versus all the choices in the city. The tortillas were good as well as the sauce, but there were a few missteps. The cochinita pubil was clumped together causing there to be very dry spots in the meat. The spoon full of avocado on the carne asada was hard to eat as a giant chunk.

Great ambiance - as busy of a mall that this is, it's pretty quiet and peaceful throughout the day. Chips and guac was decent, nothing special. But the Cubana was on point - great flavor with a little spice. Would also recommend the fresh juices.

This is one of the few really good lunch spots downtown, though it gets very busy around noon on weekdays. I recommend the steak huaraches, which includes mushrooms, onions, cheese, and cilantro. The guacamole is also delicious, and you can add various toppings to the guac.

Never visited this place neither sorry

Awesome guacamole and tacos

Great food.The guacamole and chips were superlative and the tacos were fresh and dreamy.And the corn tortilla soup was a knock-out. Please come here and enjoy delicious food that is accessible and affordable!

The sandwich I had is so bad that it makes me want to leave a comment. I’ve had Frontera Fresco in their airport locations and the old one in Chase building in the loop. They were always tasty. But the garlic shrimp sandwich in here is disgustingly salty! No where near tasty and it’s actually one of the worst sandwiches I’ve ever had. I’m not sure the shrimps are even fully cooked! The “chef” was trying to play around with his utensil, showing off his “skills” when cooking, because there was a group of pretty ladies waiting in line. I hope some upper level manager sees this. This is not doing any good to Rick Bayless’s name.

Best food court food. Even among Mexican food this is great. If you are looking for something to eat around the area, come here!Update: they no longer have the tamales which was the best thing in the menu. Downgrading my rating.

Tasty Braised Short Rib Torta

Best chicken Tortilla soup in the city!The line can get long during lunch, but well worth it.

This has to be the worst food I have ever eaten. I ordered 2 black bean tacos. They put some black beans on two uncooked corn tortillas and about 4 pieces or arugula and that is all. The beans were just sitting in a chafing pan on the counter. I can't believe I accepted this food or paid for it or ate it.Every place in the food court was serviing unacceptable food.

A bit expensive, but an oh-so-delicious Chicago classic.
