Taco Restaurants near Blue Island

“Just had their steak (carne asada) tacos! Absolutely fantastic! The green salsa is on point! Very generous on the size of their tacos. I'm extremely picky when it comes to getting tacos in fact I only like my tacos from one or two taco places in all of Chicago. This is my first time coming here and this spot just got added to my small list. I will most definitely stop by this place whenever I'm around this area. Thank you for the great food! May God bless you with more business.“

“Wonderful mexican food. Been a tinley park / oak forest resident my whole life, and I have not stopped coming back to tacos diaz for when I want mexican food. Al pastor (pork) tacos are fresh and made excellent. Thank you for wonderful food & wonderful service“

“Good food and great customer service“

“Surprisingly for a hidden taco joint in a gas station, it’s great. I’ve had the tacos, burritos, and torta. The el pastor burrito is delicious! Their burrito tortilla is not like those thin stretchy flour tortillas, it’s great for burritos. The steak, lengua, and el pastor tacos are good too! The carnita taco is okay, not the best but it’s good. The torta is one of my go to’s. It can be a bit pricy but I think it’s worth it if you have the money to spend lol.“

“Pacheco's food is delicious and generous and they are always so friendly!! For my money, it is the best taco salad in the city. They have brightened up that little spot and we are so grateful to have them as neighbors ❤“

“Friday's Dj Music, FOOD,“

“Yesterday was my first time visiting this location, and overall I had a really good experience 😊 The food was super delicious and full of flavor, and the portions were very generous - definitely more than enough to feel satisfied 🍽️👌 I’ll absolutely be coming back again!

One small thing that could be improved is clearer signage. There wasn’t anything indicating that you can seat yourself, so I assumed I needed to order at the counter and wait for a number 🤔 Turns out I was completely wrong, and for a moment I thought I was about to get scolded 😅 The lady at the counter helped fix my order and guided me, and then I was able to sit down.

Aside from that little confusion, everything else was great, and I still really enjoyed my visit 🙌✨“

“In my experience, it can be *incredibly* difficult to secure a reliable, professional, and high-quality food truck vendor to service private events that are also open to neighborhood patrons; therefore, when I reached out to Tacos Truck El Tío Rafa, my experience working with them was very refreshing and affirming! They were immediately accommodating and responsive, even when all they had was my word that my event would generate enough profit to make it worth their time and investment. The El Tío Rafa team ended up servicing almost 250 guests at my party for approx. five hours, and they were prepared with more than enough food to do so! On top of it all, the food was DELICIOUS! So much so that my uncle broke his no meat diet to try the steak tacos because of how good they are! Other guests have been calling me to remark on how much they enjoyed all of the food offerings from the truck as well. And the prices of each item are incredibly reasonable, especially for working/middle class patrons.

I’m so honored and grateful that Rafael, Joanna, and their team took us on as clients, and I can’t wait to work with them again and again!“

“Honestly, I’ve had this account for years and have never put in the time to actually review a place regardless how good/bad… Tacos El Diablo is the real deal most authentic Mexican food you can find anywhere around Chicago minus Little Village real talk. FIRE.“

“I just ate here today. And service was great food was good and made ready to order. Who ever that girl is on the register is is hella mad gorgeous. Definitely would recommend and I am coming back. I'm really thankful they had a bilingual speaking person. Everything was Neat and organized and clean.“

“The food! OMG The Food!
I was out visiting a friend and discovered this place. When I walked in and saw the hot (spicy) vegetables I wanted to start eating them while waiting on my to go order. When I opened up that container I felt like I struck gold! The food was delicious and the onion bulb was a great touch. A real portion of food. I definitely got my moneys worth. I live 30 minutes away and will be driving over there when I want a taste of Mexico.
Thank You.😋“

“Great food and drinks! Love having a place this good so close to home!“

“We ended up at this place by chance with 6 of us, ranging from teens to a grandma. All of us loved it. The tacos were really delicious. Grandma felt that the guacamole was too salty so the owner came out and apologized, made her a fresh batch to her liking AND removed it from the bill. Both food and service were top notch. The atmosphere was super fun and lively too.“

“100% recomendada, buen servicio, deliciosa comida, Buenos precios, las hamburgers de cualquiera que elijas, son una delicia.“

“I love Peeples Tacos. I'm glad they now have a south Suburban location. I use to travel all the way to the Westside to grab some of their tacos. From my experience the food is always good and they are always a vibe. They keep a smile on their face and is always pleasant.“

“Ms. Payten the owner was sooooooo SWEET to my sister and I. It was a slow evening & the DJ was about to pack up, but bc we reserved a table (which she refunded as well with no problem bc we were about to leave) and came out to have a good time, she made the DJ stay for us , gave us free shots, & let the party continue just for us. She wanted to MAKE SURE we had a good time, & A TIME WAS HAD!!! I’ll definitely be back for the steppers set night on Thursdays! All of the staff was really nice and polite as well! This black own business is ran WITH INTEGRITY, PROFESSIONALISM, & MOST IMPORTANT LOVE!! THIS IS THE SPOT TO COME TO ALL SUMMER 2025!!! Check their Instagram to see what they have coming up on the schedule !!!! Can’t wait to try their food the next time I go!“

“🔥🔥🔥 Tacos pura lumbre! 💯% recomendados. Los de al pastor una chulada!“

“Great Food! Also, a very friendly staff.“

“This place was so good! My boyfriend, baby, and I came here to dine in yesterday and the food was phenomenal. We were looking for queso barria tacos on google and they showed up. The server was awesome. They didn’t have a kids menu but I asked if they can do rice and eggs for the baby and they did just that he loved his meal as well! The cook even came to talk to us for a bit which I thought was pretty cool…very personalable! We will definitely be coming back! Thank you for your service 😁“

“all i can say is that the tacos are absolutely delicious.“

“Excelente comida con sabor auténtico mexicano y excelente servicio !“

“So grateful I had the opportunity to try this amazing and blessed business! Service and food was OUTSTANDING! I’ll be back and bringing others! 💚“

“We ordered corn Tilapia and Mushroom Tacos and they were delicious. I loved the grilled Tilapia a little more. The ambiance was quiet around 4pm and the service took about 10-15 minutes for the food to arrive.
Would love to go and try other food as well!“

“I love supporting family owned businesses. Love that this is an option in the area late nights as there’s not many food options nearby. The chicken quesadilla is my favorite and I love how juicy it is!

Vegetarian options: You can ask them to modify your order to vegetarian-based.“

“Really good food I highly recommend it“

“Does anyone know if there still open im craving some seafood mariscos aguachiles ceviche etc 😫🤰🏻“
