“From the food to the atmosphere everything was perfect! We ordered tacos, a burrito, and guacamole. Everything was a 10/10. The steak tacos were the best I've had in a while. I would highly recommend anyone in the area to try this place. The service was great, the waitress was attentive and kind.”

“Hungry for a quick and tasty taco ..asada, lengua,Al pastor and the Aguas frescas top tier …. Oh and the carrots always fresh and flavorful … love it,”

“Fast and friendly service. Food was good and portions are generous. Atmosphere was nice and clean. Servers are very attentive. Definitely recommend if you like chilaquiles verdes. Plenty of street parking.”

“Chilaquiles was amazing!!! Highly recommend also tacos de Lengua”

“Fui a Esparza’s Tacos en la 66 y Pulaski y quedé encantada. Probé los tacos al pastor y Arrachera y también un licuado de fresa, plátano y chocolate. ¡Todo estaba delicioso! La carne bien sazonada, las tortillas frescas y hasta doraditas, el licuado con un sabor increíble. Definitivamente regresaré súper recomendado.”

“September 5, 2025 Esparza’s Tacos is a fantastic spot with delicious food and generous portions. One detail I really enjoyed was how they serve pickled carrots on the side, they were tangy, flavorful and such a tasty addition to the meal. I ordered a burrito and it did not disappoint. It was packed with plenty of meat, seasoned well and full of flavor in every bite. I really appreciated that they don’t hold back on the portions, which makes the meal even more satisfying. Overall, Esparza’s Tacos delivers on both quality and taste. I’m already looking forward to coming back and trying more from their menu. —————— September 9, 2025 Coming here for the second time, I ordered two tacos to go around 10:10 PM, and I’m really glad I stopped by. The tacos were packed with plenty of meat, making them super satisfying. This place is definitely going to be my go-to spot for tacos. I also love the pickled carrots they include with takeout. The food here is absolutely delicious. —————— September 10, 2025 I came here to dine in again for the second time around 9:50 PM. I ordered the steak torta dinner and a guava drink. The guava drink was very refreshing and the torta was really good too. After finishing the torta, I ended up ordering one more steak taco because the meat was so flavorful. —————— September 14, 2025 I really like this place a lot. I tried the menudo and I have to say it’s full of flavor and absolutely delicious. They only serve it on weekends, so I was glad I got the chance to try it. I wanted to step out of my comfort zone and try something new and I’m happy I did because I really enjoyed it. All the staff here are also super friendly, which makes the experience even better. I picked up my order at 9 PM and took it to go since I was tired and getting home late from work.”

“Food was great! My family ordered a variety, quesadillas de arrachera, tacos and consomé, all was delicious!”

“Pretty busy. Nice lighting. I just picked up for takeout.”

“We came for the tacos and they were good. Tried asada, pastor and barbacoa. The pastor was my favorite. Love the salsas and the pickled red onions they give you on the side. Service was great, good vibe not too loud. Smaller place. Would come back to try other items. Agua de jamaica was perfect, not too sweet it was on point.”

“Came back after a year . Tried the barbacoa tacos, I loved them! Steak are still tasty but will be back for barbacoa tacos. They only had red sauce it was spicy so it was ok should get more sauces though. No chips. My granddaughter had red chilaquiles. Sorry not good rice bland, orchata tastes like the powder one. Sorry but will come back for the tacos only. Shakes are ok.”

“You can tell the steak tacos are of great quality. There’s only two negatives about my overall experience. One was the meat is not seasoned, actually the meat tastes like no season was ever used. The second is, I ordered my tacos with everything, cilantro & onion, hardly any cilantro, if anything my tacos were sprinkled with cilantro stems. The price point of the food is high. I expected better quality control. I’ll come back to give them another try, on the positive side their salsa is very good & spicy.”
