“Best tacos on 47th!!! The real deal and a good deal money wise!”
“Best Shrimp Tacos in Chicago!!! Must try with the orange habanero sauce !!”
“Friendly establishment. Tacos are 4.25 each. The tacos we ordered were of al pastor. The Al pastor meat was on the bland side. They were very generous on the meat filling.Tortillas were just heated on the grill they were dry a little oil would make the tacos taste 100% better.”
“Great Tacos and Burritos, friendly staff and great food if you want something to not only satisfy your taste buds and your wallet and stomach come here despite what the description says they also accept cards and Google and Apple Pay! ENJOY! Their Cucumber water is very delicious and well balanced!”
