Time Out Chicago

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.

Rosa Martínez Colón

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.

Alex McMurrin

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.

All over The world

The tacos were really good the al pastor and steak are a def must try!

Ryan Bujeker

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!

Rachel Rusnak

Tried the Mexican chopped salad for the first time. Awesome! Dressing is good, but just as wonderful with a little salsa .

Jill

The only negative is that they don't have pitchers of Margarita . Glasses are $6.95 and tasty.

John Lee

Nice place. I absolutely loved the fish taco , but there was way too much cilantro on the chorizo taco .

Jeff Kucej

Tacos al Pastor are just like the al Pastors I had in Mexico City . Careful, the red salsa has a bite to it.

Daniel K.

Shrimp taco is to die for here. You have to try it.

Colin Boardway

Ok food. Amazing salsas . A bit pricey , but a bit classier than a traditional Mexican spot.

Rosenia Nieves

Good tacos de Asada. Must admit price was ok.

Service is okay. Cute Decor.

Angie Osmanski

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

Orlando Anacleto-Dominguez
