This place was LEGIT! Homemade tortillas, complementary taro chips and salsa were delicious. $5 margaritas were very well balanced and not super sweet, tacos were amazing and well priced, did i mention those were handmade tortillas???!? Nice decor, cool table tops. I recommend the shrimp queso for appetizer but definitely coming back to taste more of their menu.

This place is absolutely amazing! I had the coctel de camaron and my wife had the torta de pollo. We also split an order of the cheese empanadas. Everything was delicious. They have a nice variety of margaritas as well. We will definitely be back.

Tuesdays are definitely the day to go! They have Taco Tuesdays! Which is great if you want to try their long taco menu. We had their hibiscus margarita pitcher too which was great to share between 4 people.

So good! Tacos were delicious and huge! Such a generous portion of meat and freshly made tortillas. The mango margarita was yummy! If I wasn't so full, I definitely would've kept them flowing!

I decided to stop in to try their famous pork belly tacos or now known as Coca Cola tacos and they did not disappoint! Tried their handmade quesabirrias, the flavor was different than others I have tried and were so good. The drinks are super good so I definitely have to stop by again for happy hour.

It was an okay, experience. I wish they would train their server better. She never let us settled in before asking what we wanted to order. First, you ask your guest would they like a beverage,second you bring water to the table. The basics of serving isn't happening at this place. It was downright annoying. The alcoholic beverages were weak. MARGARITAS are supposed to be shaking not poured over the ice. One of the cooks was busy putting up l.e.d. lights and cooking. Make it make sense Jesus!!!!. This place could definitely do better. How it was featured on CHICAGO'S Best is mind boggling. All that glitters,definitely isn't GOLD.

This is the best taco spot in the entire city of Chicago. I lived in Pilsen for 8 years and this was my favorite spot. Incredible food, amazing service. Super super SUPER amazing tacos. Flavorful, generous servings. I cannot say enough good things about this place. I always make it a priority to visit when I come back to Chicago. Order the guacamole! Get the arabe tacos!

Tacos were great. I got the ribeye asada, and the cochinita pibil tacos (slow cooked pork), both super delicious and very filling. The complimentary nachos with salsa verde hit the spot, as well as the homemade horchata!

AS GOOD AS IT GETS. I can’t remember ever having a better taco anywhere, period. This place is truly phenomenal, a local gem. The taco arabe is out of this world. I have been here many times and will always keep coming back!
