Reservations never hurt! Don’t be afraid to specify your spice needs — the chef cooks to order.
With its vivid dining room and ambitious take on Mexican cuisine, Mi Tocaya may be your new go-to for tacos al pastor---or something completely different, like the rich and earthy fideos secos soup.
Roasted goat, bone-in, large plate. Add quesadilla, and spicy salsa. Great eats. Friendly staff. Byob.
This 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.
There's nothing fancy about it other than the food, which is great. Try the goat tacos. They're incredible.
Leña Fire ($13) Thanks be to the agave gods for the sweet nectar that is mezcal and sotol.
The taquero gets the tortilla warmed up perfectly each time and enhances it with a dip in some beef fat.
Hibiscus punch ($10) with blanco tequila, lime juice, hibiscus tea and pineapple shrub garnished with a pineapple wedge, lime wheel and fresh mint leaves.
The aguacate at Masa Azul is one of the 100 best things we ate this year. http://tmout.us/rLOtk Leggi tutto.
The pastor tacos are some of the best in Chicago. Also, dude behind the counter is super friendly and patient even when your drunk friends are taking forever to order.
The chicken in mole is a good place to start, but don't skip the grilled cecina taco.
Really great margaritas and cocktails. The guacamole and Truck Stop Nachos are solid as well. Tacos were just ok.
Try the quesadillas with steak and wash it down with a strawberry licuado.
LOVED the Sopes Sortidos "Xilonen" and the Mar Cielo y Tierra azteca. Order a side of Plantanos con Crema for dessert. The Cilantro Julep was awesome - sweet, but not too sweet.
Though all of the soups (birria, posole and menudo) are way better than average, it’s the carne en su jugo that kills
