Jalen C gave me and my friends shots. it was my friends birthday. he was cool he was very hospitalable. he told us a lot about federralez. i’ve had had a lot of expiercnce with him. he did a great job with havin my friends and i excite and happy over my friends birthday. great job.
I’d like to thank both God and JESUS for bringing me the most perfect dish to ever grace my lips. As an experienced spicy potato taco lover (shoutout to Taco Bell) I have incredibly high standards. Federales blew my hopes and dreams out of the water and now I must live knowing I’ve already experienced the highest amount of culinary pleasure I will ever experience. Thank you to whoever made my taco at 7:22pm on May 18th. Thank you chef.
I can't rate this place highly enough. We visited twice for late lunch before the ARC festival. All the tacos we tried were perfect and the online menu made selections simple. Friendly and helpful servers. Any visit to Chicago is not complete without going to Federales!
Our server Maria was great I really appreciated her always checking on us. Honestly the southwest salad was the best salad I’ve ever had I am DEFINITELY coming back again, but also the tequila mule was heaven. I have had good cocktails before but this wasn’t not near anything I’ve had before ugh it was so good. I loved the vibe and atmosphere I definitely recommend coming here.
Had such a great brunch at Federales this morning! Ate and drank so much! Waitress was lovely & the chef was so sweet too, we had a big breakfast & each ordered entrees and couldn’t finish a good amount of our meals. He came out and made sure we enjoyed everything and even offered free churros. He was so kind! And truly all the food was delightful! Will come back again!
Yolanda was our server. She has excellent customer service skills and really took care of us throughout the football games. Made our College Gameday perfect. Great cocktails and beer selection. Fries were the best cut like pom fritz with several dipping sauces. Outstanding layout with natural light great seating options and super clean.
Had a great brunch including a breakfast torta, taco and chorizo and potato hash. Desserts were delicious!
The atmosphere was nice. Drink were on point.. very casual vibe. The mood was the lighting inside. Had a patio option. Was there for the first time for a friend birthday.
After a bad experience at Bar Louie, me and my friends came here instead. Great food and drinks, cute atmosphere and had a Friends themed trivia night. Our server Dee was super nice and attentive but not overbearing. Highly recommend for a casual fun night!
Federales on Logan is a winner! I went for brunch to celebrate my birthday! We had such a good time! The sales person (green eyes) enticed us to have ice shots! I scored a shot on the house by hitting the bell. I hit the bell with the ice shot twice! YAY! The atmosphere is open and amazing! The entire menu is available during brunch! This location will be a nice hang out this summer! Today was a great preview!
Had a blast! Food and service was amazing! Also, our waitress Megan was also so friendly and kind. I ordered 3 different tacos, the asada taco, the pork pastor taco and chalupa taco. Definitely a vibe here!
Andy was a great server! Ordered a Hugo Spritz and the churros. The churros were phenomenal!
Food was very delicious. Customer service was great. Great job
Ordered a bloody Maria with steak and egg tacos. I've seen this place before but never stopped in. Glad I finally pulled the trigger! Awesome spot with great options.
This place was so good we ate happy hour here 2 days in a row lol I thought Arizona had the best tacos but CHI tied the game! Both bartenders Brian and Spencer made our visit so fun! I can’t wait to return!!!
Always a good time here. Great staff, food options and drinks! Love the atmosphere all year round! Hibiscus margaritas are excellent. Ice shots are a must. Nachos, potato tacos, shrimp tacos and birria tacos are a must try!
This is such a great neighborhood spot! Can’t go wrong with the pizza and beer! Staff is super friendly! Service is great! The tater tots are yummmmmmy!
Another fantastic stop to add to your RiNo district adventure! The vibes here are great, and if you're looking to catch a game, they've got plenty of TVs. It can get a little loud, but that's part of the fun and energy. The food is solid, with tacos ranging from $6 to $9 each, and they serve bottomless chips with salsa—perfect for snacking. Don’t miss their margaritas—they’re really good! Throwing ice at the bell seems like a hit and theme to get it to ring. A fun spot to hang out and enjoy the lively atmosphere.
Loved this place..amazing service. Amanda was great and attentive. Good happy hour deals. Good food and very reasonable priced for West Loop
Nat was a great bartender handling a late night Hawks game group. Speedy, kind and smiling. The manager came out and checked on costumers, made sure all were happy. Great experience and I recommend the pepperoni pizza. Can't wait to visit again.
I really enjoyed it. It’s also placed well in the city, right between the main train station and United Center. The meal was served in a timely manner and it also tasted well. I have a sweet tooth, but the cookie is for 2 people actually. The price was also appropriate for the quality.
An excellent place with delicious pizza. The atmosphere in the evening is relaxed, ideal for eating and having a good time while watching a sports match. Personally, I enjoyed watching the hockey game while enjoying pizza and garlic bread. An excellent place to have a good tim
I’m finally checking out Ranalli’s specifically their west loop location. They have a huge variety of drinks, tons of TV’s to watch sports, and even has a free shuttle to and from games at the United Center. I liked the chicken tenders the most since they were crispy and not oily at all. For the main event, we ordered the Hot Honey Soppressata Pan Pizza which I really enjoyed. I will for sure get that next time I come back.
We went here to watch the cubs playoff game. We had a lot of fun! They have plenty of TVs. There pizza is also very good! The Cubs did not do too great but we still had a good time. I highly recommend for spots watching with friends
Came on a Saturday night and enjoyed the lively vibe outside! The DJ was playing great music, and the atmosphere was fun because we had an excellent view of everyone trying their hand at hitting the bell with their ice shot glasses. There were several non-alcoholic cocktails on the menu, and the paloma was quite delicious. The queso fundido was one of the best we've ever had! Burrito and tacos were also tasty (the potato one was better than the carnitas one). We will definitely be back.
We sat outside on the patio on 10/4 before heading over to the United Center. Rachel was our server and she was fantastic! She was friendly and attentive, and her recommendations were spot on, we LOVED the soppressata pizza! We will definitely be back for our next blackhawks game, thanks Rachel!
All I can say is WOW! We came here for a Bears game and the atmosphere was iconic. We had so much fun. Everyone gets very lively and involved if there is a game on. There are 2 bars and TVs everywhere. If you want to watch the game, you should get there early as it got packed very quickly. Even though there was lots of people the wait time for food was not long, and the service didn’t disappoint. They are known for their pizza and wings, but other great options as well like the 4C smashburger which was cooked perfectly.
Hip Taco and Tequila Joint. Assortment was decent both on the Taco and the Tequila side. Sevice was on point and friendly. Tacos were tasty and the Churros with a side of ice cream hit the spot! The tequila based espresso martini was also surprisingly good. Definitely Recommend.
We stopped here after C2E2. It's a high energy atmosphere blasting some great music. The service was quick and attentive. The food was fantastic! The brisket burrito was one of the best I've had. They have a robust menu with plenty of options, including some high quality vegan selections. The place came highly recommended and lived up to the hype.
Only had drinks but atmosphere was fun and drinks amazing. If you are into it have your shots of tequila in an ice glass and try your hand at tossing empty ice glass at a bell. Have some fun.
Great spot for high energy and good vibes! Food was amazing! We had the smoked chicken quesadillas and the brisket nachos! They were both so good and big enough to share with the table. Drinks were good. I tried the blood orange margarita and found it ok. Not my favorite but heard the traditional was better. Overall, worth a visit for a great atmosphere.
Logan absolutely crushed it! 5 ⭐️! Great service! Great suggestions! Party of 6 from GA & TN!
Stephanie was incredible. Her service and timing was like psychic! When we were ready for drinks she was just walking over. When we were ready for our starters and food, again she was on top of it like she knew! Amazing service! Food also outstanding! Drinks, perfect! Highly recommend!
We visited on a busy Friday night — Mayra was so attentive and such a kind server during a busy time. She made our experience at Ferderales so great and fun!! Many of their cocktails are pre-made and incredibly sweet! We ordered drinks to be made on the spot — regular marg is so good!!
Had an awesome dinner at Federales Fulton Market! The Taco Platter was delicious—especially the beef brisket and spicy chicken tacos—and the atmosphere in the restaurant was lively with great music playing. Britany was our waitress and she was extremely friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. Everything came out quick and fresh. Highly recommend for a fun night out in Chicago!
We were on vacation in Denver and decided to venture out, and of course, we looked for a place for Taco Tuesday. We were so lucky and blessed to be able to land at Federales! From the moment we went through the door to the time we left, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Nevada greeted us and throughly explained our eat and drink options! We had the drink of the month,tacos , fajitas and a great dessert! All were yummy! We even played a game where you throw an ice shot to ring the bell! If you are looking for great food, atmosphere and fun Choose Federales! Thank you NEVADA! We’ll be back!
Mango taco was good but was just average compared to how amazing the carnitas was. Food came out in less than 5 minutes and was good temperature. Waitress was attentive. Place was clean. Good Christmas decorations. Fair pricing.
Great spot! On our first night here from Houston. Was not expecting Denver to deliver on Mexican food over Houston but deliver they did!! Good music and vibes.
John is an amazing bartender and his suggestions were on point! I tried the Baja, Barbacoa chicken and pork and pineapple. The flavors were consistent and the side of salsas are a great additions if you need an extra kick! The blood orange marg is handmade - definitely worth it!
First time in! This place was absolutely amazing! Service, drinks, food and atmosphere were all on point! The tacos were packed with meat and absolutely delicious! I highly recommend! I will tell all my friends and family! We didn't choose from the brunch menu however it looked absolutely amazing! I will. E returning with all my girlies for brunch!
Federales was fantastic. The tacos were AMAZING. I had the pork and pineapple, the carnitas, and the spicy chicken, and all three were full of flavor. The free chips and salsa were surprisingly great too. We also ordered the guacamole and queso, and both were fresh, creamy, and really tasty. Federales is an easy yes for anyone who loves good tacos.
My second time coming! The food is delicious and flavorful! I will come again and again - our waitress was fast and attentive! The vibes were good too we came on a Sunday during the football games
Superb. I had the the loose goose and three beers with some friends. I liked sweet cocktails and the loose goose was perfect. The place was busy and the service was still excellent!! I’ll be coming back for sure:)
Service and food was great. Will definitely come back. Chef was great and came to greet us at the table which added to the experience. Definitely recommend!
If you’re into football this is a perfect spot multiple TV’s playing multiple games from every angle, lively crowd , and good pizza. You don’t have to wait to be seated you just walk in and seat yourself!
So much fun at Federales! Great service by Sarah and we had fun with the ice shots for our birthday girl!
I was here with a friend that was visiting out of town. Corona and Sarah was sooooo awesome! Our drinks were perfect. I recommend everyone to try the raspberry or spicy cucumber margarita!!
Visiting a friend today and we walked over to this place and boy was it fantastic! The food alone will bring us back! They have great margaritas and great non-alcoholic drinks too! Music was bumpin and there were a food amount of people! Make sure you try as many tacos as you can and don't skip the taquitos! The chips and salsa were also fantastic! We'll be back soon! Oh and! They have a solid happy hour menu and normal menu prices were perfect for the portions!
10/10 music. Couldn’t be better. Most of the food was great. They go hard on the lime for practically all the things we tried - it’s so good. Not vegetarian, but all the vegan/veggie options were phenomenal.
The food was delicious. I had the Duck in mole taco and the shrimp taco. The server was amazing! The DJ was playing a bunch of 90's and 2000's music and was great. Oh, and the mezcal margaritas were to die for! Highly recommend this place!
