“I have visited this place several times, and what I liked the most was the guacamole, made with fresh avocados, but unfortunately this last time I went, the guacamole was not made with fresh avocados, it was made with bagged avocado paste, I know that everything has gone up in price, and one understands that it costs more to make guacamole with fresh avocados. and personally I wouldn't mind paying a bit more for guacamole with fresh avocados.I really felt disappointed“

“buenísimo servicio y la comida un zason pura sabrosura delicioso.“

“Worth stopping in to satisfy your taco cravings .
Their menu offers the classic array of tacos, tortas burritos and platters.

It’s the little extra care and attention to detail that sets this place apart. The chips are fired to perfection, the taco shells are toasted just right and the meats are all given a little extra attention to ensure they are moist and flavorful.

I didn’t expect much walking in the first time - but was pleasantly surprised. Have been going ever since. Owners are super friendly and love the community.“

Si buscan un lugar con comida mexicana con sabor casero les recomiendo este lugar sus tamales,carnes asadas, desayunos, y comida en general muy deliciosa, son muy amables y atienden muy rápido 100% recomendado.“

“The best birria I have ever eaten in my entire life. I've just been there for the first time and it's simply incredible. From the first place, I was involved in something difficult to explain, so many years passing and never having given them a chance or knowing the goodness of their food.“

“Estimados encargados de El Solazo: Espero este mensaje les encuentre bien. Me dirijo a ustedes como un cliente frecuente y admirador de su restaurante, en el cual siempre disfruto de una comida deliciosa y un servicio excepcional. Sin embargo, en mi última visita, experimenté una situación que considero importante señalar para su atención y mejora. El día de hoy, martes 26 de noviembre, llegué a cenar a las 8:45 pm confiando en la información publicada en sus redes sociales, donde claramente se especifica que el horario de cierre es a las 11:00 pm. No obstante, a las 9:30 pm ya se estaba anunciando el "último llamado" para bebidas alcohólicas. Además, durante mi estancia, fui testigo de cómo dos familias fueron rechazadas para cenar por el mismo motivo: el restaurante estaba cerrando antes de tiempo debido a "la falta de clientes". Entiendo que puedan surgir situaciones operativas, pero considero que este tipo de decisiones impacta negativamente en la experiencia de sus clientes. Cuando se anuncia un horario de cierre, los clientes planeamos nuestras visitas en base a esa información. De no ser posible mantener el horario anunciado, sería más transparente ajustarlo oficialmente en sus plataformas para que las personas puedan planear con anticipación y, en caso necesario, optar por otras opciones. Por último, quiero mencionar que esta inconformidad fue compartida con nuestra mesera, quien nos escuchó con amabilidad. Sin embargo, creo que esta situación requiere un ajuste desde la gerencia para evitar malentendidos en el futuro. Agradezco de antemano su atención a esta situación y espero que se tomen las medidas necesarias para garantizar que su excelente servicio sea consistente en todos los aspectos. Atentamente, Jesus Jesse Hernández“

“I went here Sunday for lunch. The food and service was excellent. I had the steak and chorizo taco with rice and beans. Both tacos were filled with meat. Super good and filling. I highly recommend the apple pie. I got the dessert to go and it did not disappoint. It was the best apple pie I have ever had.“

“Carnitas are tender and juicy exactly how carnitas are supposed to be. Salsas, nothing to die for. Take a pound of surtida, more masiza than cuero and buche, a dozen of tortillas and make a good salsa at home and you have a terrific dinner for two or three.“

“muy rico recomendado al # 100“

“Son Los Mejores Tacos Que E Probado y Apesar de que están Muy Ricos Son Muy Limpios y Te Atienden Bien“

“Food was excellent. Service was on point. Will be back sooner. Highly recommended“

“Ordered the pork pupusa and the revuelta/mixed pupusa. Both were fire. The food was hot and fresh. I had 3 salsas to try and all of those were good as well. The passionfruit and dragonfruit lemonade agua fresca flavors are spectacular. The prices and customer service are excellent. They def value their customers. I look forward to coming back!!“

“Amazing tacos! Heard the owner came from Atotonilco Taqueria, so I knew I had to try it and I’m glad I did! Carne was nice and soft, salsa spicy and flavorful, and I asked for the tortilla crispy and it was perfect! And the tacos survived an hour drive home, so I can only imagine how they would taste fresh!“

“Let me just start by saying that this locksmith was amazing. He showed up in about 20 minutes after I called for help and fixed the lock on my car door. They were so fast, thorough, and knowledgeable. I would recommend this locksmith to anyone who needs help with their car key coping!“

“Used to come here younger years after hard night of drinking, food was great then and today after all these years later.“

“The staff makes you feel like family! The food is amazing!!a From the enchiladas, polzole,lingua, burritos, taco bowls...I can go on forever! Haven't had not 1 bad meal yet!! They cater parties too! Got my wife a heart shaped taco plater for our anniversary! If you don't know now you know! Hands down best spot you can find in and around Oak Lawn!“

I will definitely come back when I visit again and hope everyone can come show love and support to this wonderful establishment. I ordered my favorite a torta and it was very fulfilling. My friend had the tacos and she was very satisfied as well. Thank you for having me there, I will back from the Lou! Oh and the prices are the best!!“

“Had my birthday party there and they were so accommodating and nice. Service, food, and drinks were awesome. The djs had everyone dancing all night. I totally recommend people to do their birthday parties here💞“

“Best tacos rice and beans I've ever had hands down .....Steak taco dinner with no lettuce mannn!!!! All heaven

Update There not the same anymore food and presentation are no longer there! That was my last time spending money there“

“The hand-made "machetes" are great. I had the witlacoche and flor de calabaza. It was not greasy and well stuffed. The place could be cleaner as the floor seemed not to have been swept in a while, especially since it was not that busy. Also, there was nobody at the front when we got there and some people even left. We called out, and then someone came out. Having said that, the food itself makes it easy to recommend.“

“They have the best Gorditas around!“

“We went for dinner and had a great time. Our server Jonah gave us great recommendations for food and drink. Though they had a giant party going on, we got great service. I loved the tuna, and the drinks were really nice. The carne asada my husband said he probably wouldn't get again but we will certainly be beck.“

“Me encanto la comida y el restaurante es muy bonito!!! 🤩“

“Delicious food, reasonable prices, and friendly staff. They have traditional paletas in the restaurant too which is such a good idea of theirs!! And our favorite part of going. Highly recommend trying their food then treating yourself to a paleta afterwards.“

“I had a steak tostada and an al pastor taco.🧅🍍 Let me tell you they were huge and packed with flavor. I also got 2 steak tacos because most places are skimpy with the meat. Not at Paco's Tacos 2! Now i have dinner for later. If you in the area definitely give them a try! I won't go anywhere else if I'm craving tacos, tostadas, burritos or tortas. Restaurant was clean with plenty of room to dine in. Cooks were quick and the front counter person was very pleasant. A neighborhood gem!
🌮🌯🧅🥬🍅🥑😋“

“Finally tried the pizza last night and it was delicious!!!“

“Small business bringing vegan food options to the southwest side! The food is great, and a great place to give vegan food a try if you haven't before!“

“Very good food, friendly waiters!!!“

“Delicious food and good service“

“Delicious, flavorful food with heaping portions well worth the price point. They have salsa negra which I've never had before, but became a quick fan of. I ordered the #2 Kaporal Combo which comes with a steak burrito, a chicken tostada, a steak taco, as well as a side of rice and beans. I usually stick to red meat when getting dishes like this, but the chicken was so tender and well-seasoned I wish I had 2 tostadas. The tostada shell was also the perfect mix of pliable and crunchy. The burrito isn't a full-sized one (of course) but it came with tender steak, lettuce, tomato, and beans. They allowed me to upgrade my taco meat to cabeza, and it was melt in your mouth tender. I'm also relatively sure the tortillas are made in house, they were divine. I would 100% come back, if I lived in the area I'd be tempted to come daily. They also have house made ice cream, I got the mango and Oreo. Mango was flavorful and had swirls of chamoy. The Oreo ice cream was creamy and the perfect amount of sweet.“

“Luis came out for my sons Graduation Party. He came out early to set up and was ready to go. Everyone at the party could not stop talking about how fresh and how good the food was.. At the end there was food leftover that he packaged up and left with us. A great experience all around. I will definitely be using him again and going to his restaurant. I highly recommend him.“

“I can't believe I passed this place up so many times and it's only 2 mins from my house. The tacos are good especially the chicken, in my opinion. You have an option of grilled or shredded. I like the grilled chicken. I haven't tried the shredded chicken. The steak tacos are good too. My son loves the quesabirras and their horchata drink. The chicken burrito is pretty good also and full of your meat of choice. Try them out. You won't be disappointed. PLEASE DONT GET THEM CONFUSED WITH EL RANCHITO ACROSS THE STREET, IN THE STRP MALL. THEY ARE NOT THE SAME!“

“Food was fresh I ordered two steak tacos, a steak quesadilla, chips and guacamole. The chips were thin and crispy I literally ate the whole page and wanted more. Guacamole was fresh and not bland at all. Tacos were juicy and steak seasoned well not too salty and it wasn’t any fat which I appreciate that. I will be ordering again before the week is out“

“The machetes are so good! Their cochinita is really good too! Just a heads up, their prices do not show on the board as the screen is messed up. Make sure to ask before ordering for the price. Love that their Playlist includes pop hits of the 2000's and 2010's.

Parking: Parking is in back of building“

“Nice mom & pops place. the people are very nice, tacos were good 4.2/5, but my only issue was that I felt the tacos were overpriced, especially when you have to pay for the extras. Like cheese, sour cream, etc it's 50 cents per item per taco. Would I go again? Yes but only on pay day“

“I seen this spot multiple times. I never had the chance till I definitely tried it. I had the birria tacos con consomé and an horchata. Would definitely recommend coming in. This place needs to go viral. Tacos for sure 10/10 the only thing that I didn’t like was that the music was somewhat loud. But that’s okay. Definitely coming back and try other foods.“

“SoCal burrito 🔥🔥🔥🔥 @ new Alsip location.“

“Nice, clean restaurant with inviting atmosphere. I enjoy their food and take out often to relax at home.

Parking: Small mall with probably 12 parking spots but most people are in and out currency exchange and a sandwich shop.“
