Anita SubramanianNovember 5, 2017Authentic tacos in Chicago. Worth the trip if you're craving real Mexican food and an awesome atmosphere. Grab an agua fresca while you're here!
- Chicago TribuneJanuary 7, 2015This supermarket taqueria makes its own longaniza sausage, which it sells by bulk. If you're coming in for a meal try the crispy tripe and al pastor tacos. For drinks try the tepache. Read more
Jessica ZanioloMay 29, 2014Their pastor (be sure to order it WITH pineapple) just beats all. They're also the only place so far to make me like tripas (go crispy, all the way). Love the place, the people, the food.
Serious EatsOctober 4, 2013This family-run taqueria in Little Village is one of Chicago's true treasures. Truth be told, pretty much any of their tacos de fritangas could be featured on this list.
Edgar GarciaNovember 30, 2014I tried the huevos rancheros with beans and rice. (only $5.00) it tasted like authentic home food. So I recommend it. Also tried tacos de canasta. (Only $1.00) and those were good as well- Chicago TribuneNovember 7, 2017Tripas can be deeply funky, but this version has a clean, extra-savory flavor. It's my favorite taco in the whole city. $2.40 per taco. Read more
Dan PyatetskyMarch 9, 2020The tripe is outrageous and worth the journey alone. Cabeza and suadero were both also insane. Great green salsa.
- Bobby KennedyAugust 2, 2018Housemade longaniza sausage and the crispy tripa are must haves. Dine in for an authentic experience.
Chad BellJune 23, 2017Incredibly friendly, with samples gladly given out. Bring friends and order a large platter of all the excellent tacos.- Jazmina AguilarSeptember 21, 2022Everything! Tripa tacos were hands down my favorite. It was also my first time trying a Huarache.
AlisonDecember 18, 2022The tacos and agua fresca are delicious. Recommend the pork tacos and mango agua fresca
Aleny GarciaNovember 22, 2011Check out an interesting shrine to los muertos, a star of David, and a Buddha, all in the same window!
Petra MeyerOctober 27, 2019Omg u will love it... the best Tacos in Town! Von außen sieht der Imbiss nicht vielversprechend aus... aber das Essen, der Hammer... superfreundliche Angestellte zudem 🌮🌮🌮
Poncho LoeraNovember 5, 2021No confundir con La chaparrita #2, que es de la hermana, pero son mas tacos de guisado y tortas.
