The tacos are okay, I find them expensive. Small for the price. I had steak and al pastor. The steak lacks flavor while the al pastor has flavors that are not authentic like turmeric. They do not have the trompo either, tacos came from their skillet. The sauces are creamy. Also not very common in Mexico or Chicago.
Moved to Chicago from Texas a few years back. Ever since I had just been looking for something comparable to what I could get down south. Then I found La Chaparrita. These are the best tacos I've had in my life. No exaggeration. Now I'm a regular and the quality is always excellent. Never disappointed. Appears to be a one man show in the kitchen, which explains the consistent quality. These are authentic Mexican tacos. I highly recommend the tripa tacos (get them crispy).
This is def one of the best taco spots in the city. Def pricy for what you get so not a first choice, but the tacos themselves are amazing, the meat is seasoned super well, the tortillas are great, and the salsas are great (if you even need them depending on the taco they're that well flavored)
