Place is very dirty, found metal shaving on my tacos one day. It always smells like a dirty towel in there….

I’m leaving a review because the waitress dropped hot coffee on me and did not bother to help me. Luckily it was not too hot or else I could’ve been burned. The manager did not come to apologize or help as well. Please be careful when dining here .

I called because I like there tacos and I talked to someone that doesn't even speak English I kept asking for someone that speaks English...all I wanted was three steak tacos and they kept trying to give me tostadas I kept saying no they kept saying yes so I just said no thank you and hung up the phone... I don't think I will be calling back or going back I feel like everyone doesn't speak Spanish so they should always have someone there that speaks enough English to understand orders... Thanks

This place seriously needs to replace there cooks!!! ?? a family told the tall cook to stop using profanity words in front of his daughters, the tall cook still had the audacity to tell him if he doesn’t like it to leave. SMH ?‍♂️

! Once again we were in a new place for us and this time it was a great experience our visit to this restaurant. The food is incredibly delicious. Fresh, warm. Something that caught our eye was that they served us an extra "cebollita" as a side. Very touchy . The agua de horchata really good. We were there this morning, an a Saturday, and the two girls who assisted us were very friendly, always checking on us if everything was ok. Making sure we felt good. The place so clean, with a parking lot. Well, this is a definitely a place to go back.

I don’t know if the food is old or something but the chicken enchilada dinner smelled very odd like it was spoiled. I was also given rotten avocado.Gave two stars for the horchata because it was really good. Chips and salsa was alright but overall never coming back

I was going to taconazo on North Ave in Chicago for years & would always order my Torta de Milanesa there and I wanted to give this location a try, so I ordered the same Torta de Milanesa and they were skimpy with beans and avocado & meat for what it cost no worth it compared to other location that place was always consistent every time I went there and generous with all toppings.

Ordered a lengua taco dinner disgusting. The meat smelled very old along with the plate it was served on...like they used a dirty sponge to clean their dish. I got so nauseous i couldn't eat anything else. A health inspector needs to go check this restaurant out. The waitress was very kind & the cashier seemed like she had an attitude. Oh well! I know my Mexican food & this was garbage. Old meat & dirty, smelly dishes!

This is a very simple place, no luxurious location, but the food is made of an old-fashioned Mexican way. The sauces are good. The horchata water drink is to die for!!! The tacos are good. Be sure you tell them not to want any fat in the steak tacos to enjoy them more, lol.. ? but here is the thing prices are reasonable if you like to relax and take it easy ? this restaurant is fine to eat.Service with a smile ? yes they try to make you feel welcome and respectful.

I ordered 3 caldo de res. The portion size was liquid, 1/2 a small potato, and a third of a carrot with 3 small pieces of meat. No cilantro or onions and 3 quarter sized limes that were dried. I also got a black hair in one of the soups! $40 that I will never spend on them again! They offered to place more vegetables and provide the onion and cilantro. I opted out. Never going there again. Check your orders before you walk out the door. That was my second error. First was ordering from there.

I believe food should be fresh cooked and not kept on freezer for days!! It’s the worst food I ever tasted right after I left the cook took out a big bin with frozen cook taco meat just an fyi owner needs to check up on his business.. if inspection goes I can assure you they would close it right away. I just feel all food they serve it’s been sitting cooked for days. MELROSE PARK NEED TO GO AND INSPECT THE PLACE.
