Taqueria La Herencia
Taqueria La Herencia — one of Brighton Park's strongest mexican spots. The flavors don't apologize for being bold. Service that's warm without being over the top.

“Lugar pequeño pero limpio. Compré una libra de birria pa llevar, la verdad tiene muy buen sabor y a mejor precio por unos 3 DLS que su competencia ahí cerca. Tienen buen sazón. Buen trabajo 👍”

“Visited this cute spot some weeks ago and loved it. Generous portions, fresh food, and great customer service. The food is so good but also the coconut pound cake was chefs kiss, so good!”

“The customer service and the food are excellent. My daughter and I had the Barbacoa, Al Pastor, Asada and the Quesabirria…..Amazing flavor!! The also have a strawberry horchata!!! The flavor is wow!!”

“This place made me feel like I was visiting my aunt in Morelia. The waitress delivered a flight of different salsas with chips. The horchata was tasty, not grainy nor too sweet. Then we each had a complimentary enchilada while we waited for our food, Michoacan-style. We ordered a tampiqueña, a gordita de asada, and some steak tacos. Overall, we liked that it was busy and yet very delicious. At the end of our meal, we had a warm coconut pound cake as a gesture of appreciation for visiting them. We liked the hospitality so much that we decided to come the next day too.”

“So many places to get tacos how do you choose?! We decided to stop here because the pics looked good and the reviews were solid. Small place with not much space to sit but a nice parking lot on the side made it easy to park. Service was really good, you can tell they care about each customer. Everything was clean and delicious. I really enjoyed the Chile Relleno. It’s hard to find it so I was really happy about it. We will definitely be back.”

“Solo ve y prueba los deliciosos chilakiles verdes y los rojos como tu los quieras cecina oh pollo 😋😋😋😋😋”

“My friends & I tried this spot for the first, we loved everything! We will definitely be back, thank you Cecilia for the great service”

“Went to this little spot after it was recommended to me by a friend. Food is really good, I like that they brought out this little samples of things to try before bringing out what we ordered. Also the bread at the end was phenomenal 😋 will definitely come back.”

“Great overall experience! Generous portions. A lot of food at fair prices. Place serve chips. Traditional plates and you'll won't be disappointed. I had the cecina plate. Family had a birria and chicken fluata plates. Street parking only. Enjoyed the atmosphere!”

“Las quesabirrias estan buenas pero tienen huesos y me salio un sticker adentro de la quesabirria”
