Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Big Star in Wrigleyville offers a lively pre-game atmosphere with "delicious tacos" and a "great whisky, tequila, and mezcal selection." Conveniently located across from the ballpark, it's perfect for pre-event dining. While some reviewers noted service inconsistencies, the "outstanding" food and vibrant ambiance make it a favorite.

    Overall our experience here was a good one. Does feel like some items are a little overpriced (the margarita pitcher for example). Our server was quite pleasant but it seemed like maybe they were a bit understaffed as we had to wait quite some time for an initial greeting, getting our bill, etc. We'd probably eat here again if someone suggested it but not somewhere I'd make a special trip for.

    Decent food, decent service , ambiance is fine. Overall a fine experience. Went on a game day and they had an abridged menu and trying to move you out of there. If you are in the area, I would return but don’t go out your way

    Rather quiet for a Saturday and food came Out quick but it was only ok. Staff was nice but because it was empty they were almost too attentive.

    Honestly, what happened to this place? This used to be a go-to for delicious tacos and margs - but it’s gone waaaaay downhill. I don’t think the menu has changed since they opened and the ingredients have become way worse. Carne asada is now so spicy as to be inedible. Margaritas taste pre-made and from mixer ingredients. Was gross. And expensive. Really sad what’s happened here I used to love this place…

    Good food, great service and lots of pre-Pearl Jam energy. Perfect spot for pre-event dinner.
