Holy Guacamole! No matter what time your party ends, you can grab a great meal at El Presidente. Sit down or take out, this late night institution promises tasty treats for all. Split a couple of platter sized entrees for a bonanza of taste or try your old favorites, El Presidente does not let his people down. Try Mexican breakfast anytime for something different.
Picante Taqueria

Fri-Sat 11am-5am
Sun 11am-12am
Picante estas muy caliente! Seriously, this walkup joint has the best veggie burrito and phenomenal pico de gallo. Beware that there's not really any place to sit here, so this food was meant for walking. But it's late night hours make either Picante location a great stop for late night eats. I suggest the veggie burrito with both pinto and black beans, hot sauce inside. Try the Horchata, it might ease that heartburn.
Arturo's Tacos
2001 N. Western Ave., Chicago

Open 24 Hours
Whether you call it West Bucktown or Humboldt Park, I call it delicious. Arturo's is open 24 hours and caters to late night eaters. Great for a grub on the go or for sitting and recuperating with friends, Arturo's is a one stop shop.

11 a.m.-1 a.m. Mon-Thurs
24 hours Friday-Sat
11 a.m.-Midnight Sun
I know lots of places lay claim to giant burritos, but El Famous is really, well... famous for its giant burritos. These things are seriously big enough to share. A close kept neighborhood secret, this hole in the wall dive makes for phenomenal eats, a great option for something quick to fill the void created by the drunk munchies. If you're daring try the fish tacos.

During the winter, El Cid still has great food, but in the summer this place comes alive. The patio is comfy place to hang out and drink margaritas. El Cid also has the elusive fish tacos and great chiles rellenos. Either location works, but Logan Square is my personal favorite.
