Tacos Don Cuco is a hidden gem in the Back of the Yards neighborhood, known for its old school style and BYOB policy. This no-frills, hole-in-the-wall taqueria serves up excellent tacos quickly, making it a favorite for locals. The al pastor, which has been described as a chef's kiss, is highly recommended along with the exceptional shrimp tacos packed with shrimp. The carne asada and taco de camaron are also popular, but the shrimp tacos stand out as the best. The tacos are regular size, not the tiny ones found elsewhere, and are reasonably priced, with each taco costing around $3.99 to $4.50. Customers appreciate that they don’t charge extra for sour cream, cheese, or avocado, and the tortas come with sour cream and mayo. The place can be a bit busy during lunch hours, so a short wait might be expected, and it is cash only for newcomers. With a variety of good salsas and a selection of Mexican sodas, Tacos Don Cuco offers an authentic and delicious experience that keeps people coming back.
