Flash Taco Wicker Park

4.1 ★989 reviews ·Opentil 4AM tonight

Flash Taco Wicker Park is a beloved, Blue Line-adjacent staple for quick, flavorful tacos, with especially generous steak portions and popular carnitas on Taco Tuesday. Regulars love the $5 specials, six tacos and two drinks for $23, plus the spicy orange sauce, late-night energy, and reliable catering for work events; expect occasional service hiccups, loud music, and mixed opinions on pricing.
