Taqueria El Dorado — straightforward mexican in Albany Park. Nothing here has been watered down. Open late. "All their meats are fresh and perfectly seasoned, for that minimalist authentic taste" — Alex Schwartz [$]

🌙Late night — the kitchen runs past 10.

They have a wide variety of food on their menu, all freshly made. I've ordered takeout several times and the portions are always very generous. Their prices are reasonable. The place is clean and the cashier is very friendly and helpful.

Lots of taqueria choices in the neighborhood and this one definitely gets the job done. Bonus points for being open late!

I often order from here, food usually doesn’t disappoint, unfortunately today when I ordered for delivery chilaquiles con carne y huevo and carne asada con nopales, the food did not taste good (rice,beans and steak were bland)the tortilla chips for my chilaquiles had barely any salsa most chips were dry and the food didn’t look appealing at all! Really disappointed!

Stopped in here by chance during a visit to Chicago last year and I STILL think about it to this day. Best chorizo burrito I've ever had. I can't wait to come back again

Had a stage setup and looked like a sound system for bands to play, a pool table in the back, and really good tacos! Would recommend!
