The couple behind Bombon Bakery are also behind this cheery taqueria , where the menu is made up of taqueria standards (spit-grilled al pastor tacos , gooey queso fundido with chorizo ). Read more
Their signature taco is the crispy shrimp taco . Imagine excellent baja fish tacos but with the most perfectly, lightly tempura battered fried shrimp instead of its flakier cousin of the sea. Read more
This place is amazing. Cheap authentic tacos . Their tacos al pastor are the best I've found so far in Chicago.
First time here and I fell in love! The guacamole is delicious, and the hand-made corn tortilla are superb! Will definitive come back soon.
I think I'm going to baptize my first-born in the Salsa Verde here. It's that good. Yummmmm. I try to stop here every time I'm in Chicago.
The tacos were really good the al pastor and steak are a def must try!
Delicious everything and super reasonable. Def try the gauc and salsas to get things started. Don't forget to BYOB . The staff will chill your Coronas and they provide the lime wedges!
Tried the Mexican chopped salad for the first time. Awesome! Dressing is good, but just as wonderful with a little salsa .
The only negative is that they don't have pitchers of Margarita . Glasses are $6.95 and tasty.
Nice place. I absolutely loved the fish taco , but there was way too much cilantro on the chorizo taco .
Tacos al Pastor are just like the al Pastors I had in Mexico City . Careful, the red salsa has a bite to it.
good tacos and quesadillas , and nice salsas - cheap too
They now have a liquer license. Drink away! Their Paloma is very fresh and tasty.
The tortillas are delicious and the lengua in salsa Verde is a must
Shrimp taco is to die for here. You have to try it.
Ok food. Amazing salsas . A bit pricey , but a bit classier than a traditional Mexican spot.
Good tacos de Asada. Must admit price was ok.
Try the shrimp tacos . You won't regret it!
Micheladas are legit!
Shrimp tacos
Yummy pastor, tortillas and salsa !
They now have a liquor license !
Shrimp taco . Eat it.
Shrimp tacos the best
No longer a BYOB , they got their liquor license . 1/20/12
Green Salsa is more like tomatillo . #Fail.
Service is okay. Cute Decor.
You don't get free chips & salsa ! The burritos are good, but a bit expensive . I can buy a the same burrito at several other places for $5
So overpriced and service lacks. Sorry wont be coming here again..
great guacamole appetizer and the garlic shrimp tacos with avocado are phenomenal. great beer selection. - Kaitlin V.
The al pastor and pescado never fail to please. Small but focused menu with awesome margarita pitchers too. A Chicago staple/favorite for sure - Autumn Choi
Great seats matter your seat. It's made for sports for 360° view so, concerts are great. - TT isTami
