Despite the small Taqueria being full of customers eating, there was no wait in line and the young lady poured two of the best extra large horchata I’ve ever had

Excellent....perfect taco for me. Soft meat and tortilla didn't break apart. Definitely give them a try..

definitivamente cambiaron el estilo de sus tacos aún estan mas o menos pero yo he comprado ahi por mas de 12 años y se ve el cambio ahora los dan envueltos en aluminio y sin cebolla asada antes tenian mas carne te los daban envueltos plato y aluminio y con bastante cebollita…. es una lastima

Tienen buen sabor pero es la última vez que ordenó. Las veces anteriores que he ordenado las tortillas frías y hoy pedí que las calentaran y en todos los tacos me pusieron tortillas frías y recalentadas. Si no aceptan que uno pida buen servicio por algo que estoy pagando y se molestan, no es mi problema, simplemente cambio de lugar. Ahí les dejo mi opinión negativo estrellas.

Best tacos and burritos in chicago. Meat quality is insane for price. They have a special cook who comes to trim all the fat of the steak so you only get the best.
