very clean space, quick and nice service, amazing food. i loved the char on the steak and al pastor. all 3 salsas were very flavorful and had a nice spice without being too hot. my husband said the tripas was crispy and seasoned nicely. we moved to the north side 2 years ago and have tried several mexican restaurants, but this is the first i wanted to rate and recommend to my friends/family.

El restaurante fue bien, los tres llegamos aquí alrededor de las dos para almorzar. Hay muchas platos para elegir, y la torta de chorizo fue especialmente delicioso.

Stopped here because we’re doing vanlife and it was next to an awesome laundry mat. Highly highly recommend! If we’re ever in Chicago again we will be coming here regularly. The most authentic tacos we’ve ever had in the U.S!!! The have there own sauces that are unique and out of this world. They grill whole scallions and shishito peppers as garnish. Very affordable price too! Ended up buying a tray of tacos for the road we liked them so much!!

My family and I love to eat at "Los Flacos", or sometimes we order to eat at home.
