American Cab Assn

If you want a cab from this company(American Taxi, Chgo)*, give extra time. Two separate incidents here. First, planned a cab for an interview on one of the hottest days of the year. I asked that the air conditioning was on very cool prior to pick up. When the cab arrived it was 15 minutes late and actually cooler outside than in. The plastic shield between front and back of car blocked all air. Second incident, I called for a cab 1/2 hr before I needed to leave for work on a very rainy night. I was told that if I wanted to reserve that I'd have to call at least one hour before pick up. If I wanted one now, they could give me a time frame of 10-30 minutes. So I called another cab service and they were at my door at exactly 10:30 as need. Thank God for options. more

When I used to live in Evanston, I would call American cab from O'Hare. Their prices are pretty much on par with Northshore cab and 303 taxi. Unlike Northshore, the American cab drivers have never been late to scheduled pickups, and are generally pretty friendly drivers. I would caution that, depending on the driver you get, they can sometimes drive recklessly. more

I have used this cab service several times while traveling to and from O'hare airport. Their service is really promp and friendly. Call in to schedule a pick-up or drop-off beforehand and they will be there on time. The drivers are really friendly and all their vehicles are clean and well-maintained. Best of all, their rates are really reasonable. American Cab makes traveling a whole lot easier! more
