We tried The Outpost for the first time tonight and we LOVED it!!! The guacamole is delicious! The Birria tacos were outstanding…honestly the best you’ll ever try! And the 3 tacos (steak, ground beef & al pastor) with beans & rice, were all so flavorful & fresh. Everyone on staff was friendly and working hard to get family/catering orders out on a Saturday evening. We loved everything about this hidden DG spot and we’ll be back….often!!

Long story short. I ran to a computer store out in the Downers Grove area and my truck brakes malfunctioned. I had to leave my vehicle in the Jewel parking lot over the Christmas holiday. I came back to grab it and give the tow truck driver the keys. We got to talking about Mexican food and what the best spots were out that way to grab some. He told me this one spot but I searched myself and found the Outpost Mexican Eatery. Now I saw it had like a 4.5, 4.6 or 4.7 rating so I’m thinking, I have to try the place. Get there and the staff is SUPER COOL. I tell them I have 20 million views on my different reviews on Google and we talk about the food industry a bit but now it’s time to get to gametime and see what the food is talking about. Look here, I got the 3 Taco dinner and they don’t need a 4.5 rating, they need a 5.0 rating. The Tacos were seasoned so well you don’t even need the amazing 2 sauces they give you (Red and Green). The cilantro was fresh and the food is simply delicious. If you’re EVER out that way you have to try them, SERIOUSLY and tell them Shag sent you!

Stopped by on a Sunday afternoon, and the place was completely empty, which was surprising—no customers or pickups. I got the burrito bowl with a small bag of tortilla chips for $14. The food was pretty good, not amazing, but solid overall. The service was great, and the staff were friendly.
Just a heads-up: the vibe here feels more like Texas-Mexican, with a bit of an Americanized twist, so don’t expect super authentic Mexican flavors. The chips felt like they were missing something, though—would’ve loved some house salsa or guac to go with them. Also, they were playing country Texan music, which added to the less-than-authentic feel.
Nothing bad overall, but something to be aware of before coming in. Still, I would recommend giving this place a try

First time here and will definitely be back. I ordered their burrito bowl with Al pastor and it was amazing. It was loaded with different flavors (even pineapple!) I am excited to try their other food items they have to offer there. The only downside was they forgot my guacamole 🙁 but overall it was a delicious experience.

Excellent, consistent, and local. Our go-to Mexican spot when we are hungry for tacos on Tuesday or hosting a party. The Outpost offers high quality, delicious traditional Mexican food. Couldn’t be happier yo have this restaurant in our town!

Very tasty. We had Barbacoa tacos with aujus and chicken tacos and were very tasty. The ground beef tacos not so much. The beans were very nice. The rice was a bit dry and no flavor. But altogether really tasty Mexican fast food.

We finally made it back to this place to try out their food. We had come on opening day but they ran out of food (around 6ish pm) and they weren’t taking any more orders. They asked us to come back in about 30 minutes but we didn’t want to wait so we went elsewhere. Today when he walked in, there was nobody inside when we walked in however the lady at the cashier was taking a phone order. There were people behind her prepping the food. Nobody acknowledged us or even said hi. A guy came up, he was very nice and he tried to ring us out but the lady on the phone had to assist him. The one thing that really bugged me was that the lady’s mask was not on properly, her nose was completely out. I ordered the veggie tacos and I confirmed the ingredients I had read on the menu: black beans, zucchini, corn, tomato-I then picked the onion and cilantro option for the tacos. My tacos did not have any tomatoes on them. The food was good. I was not a fan of the fries. The guacamole was good, just a smaller portion than I expected. Maybe I’ll give them another shot, not sure yet.

Highly recommend! Incredible flavors, they accommodate requests, and know how to roll a solid burrito. Love that they do delivery and take away from their own site. Highly recommend the burritos-chicken, steak and Al pastor. They don’t load it with rice as a filler, have a great portions, meat flavor is , highly recommend. Salsa is spicccy.
FYI Don’t love the elote-a bit sour and mushy.

Had a delicious taco lunch at The Outpost today! My husband and I had tried one of their family meal packs when they first opened and found the food bland. Today’s was a 180 degree different experience. Three of us ate and we all enjoyed the tacos and tortas. The owner is just as sweet as can be too, and that makes for such a welcoming environment.
Guess the former issues were probably due to the newness of it all. Glad to know it’s a great staple in downtown Downers Grove!

We catered our son’s graduation party through the Outpost, and both the food and service were exceptional. Anna was fantastic in helping me choose the right menu and even took care of setting up the event, staying throughout to ensure everything went smoothly. This was my second time catering from the Outpost, and their professionalism and quality continue to impress. I was incredibly satisfied with their service, and my guests were raving about the food. I highly recommend them for any large gatherings!
