“I was recommended this place by a coworker. This. Is. A. Hidden. Gem. Their staff was friendly, their food was to die for, and their prices are incredible! Try the quesabirrias, delicious and definitely not skimpy on the filling.”

“I just started working in the area found this place and ordered the steak tacos. Could possibly be the best steak taco I've ever had. Service was quick and under $4 a taco. Will be returning for sure.”

“Taquería Azteca es un excelente lugar para disfrutar de comida mexicana auténtica en Wood Dale. Sus tacos son deliciosos, con tortillas frescas y carnes perfectamente sazonadas como al pastor, carnitas y barbacoa. El servicio es rápido y amable, y las salsas tienen el toque justo de picante. También puedes acompañar tu comida con una variedad de aguas frescas o horchata. Pedimos su pollo al carbón al menos una vez a la semana para nuestros empleados, ¡y lo recomiendo mucho!

We order their carbon chicken at least once a week for our employees, and I highly recommend it!”
