This place is in my neighborhood so I figured I’d check it out for lunch. Had a quesadilla and a cup of chili and I gotta say, it was delicious! Everything tasted fresh and you could taste the ingredients were of value. With little food options in the immediate area, I’m glad to know this exists!

Breakfast tacos were delicious and tasty. I liked how clean and quiet the place was. The owner was so sweet and gave us free cupcakes as well which was really nice of her. Will definitely come back again.

I really don’t understand how this place has such good reviews.The second we walked in we got a weird vibe from it. We still gave it a shot. The lady working there didn’t write down a single thing we ordered. She asked several times to repeat the order while she was “cooking” it.While she was in the back she turned on music to try to mask the sound of her microwaving all the food. Everything we were served was very bland microwaved food.Don’t be fooled by the pictures and reviews.

Amazing breakfast tacos. Will definitely become a regular here - Best value in the city.

The owner of this restaurant is a sweetheart! Very kind and hard working. The tacos were fabulous and so affordable! We did pork tacos and breakfast tacos. She didn’t sell Topo Chico and recommended we stop by the grocery next door and BYOB- which was very kind of her. The place could use a little organizing, you can tell this is a one woman run business. She’s doing a really great job, it was a delight.

I ordered the shrimp tacos with the potato hash. The tacos were phenomenal and the red salsa was very tasty. I wasn’t sure exactly what the potato hash was going to be like but it was delicious. I’ll definitely be going back.

This was a fantastic find for us. The breakfast tacos here are truly fantastic. It reminds me of one of my favorite breakfast spots back in LA called "Homestate". Chef Kim really nails it with the tacos here. Fresh, fantastic ingredients with wonderful textures and a variety of Tex Mex sauces on the side. I love, love, love this place and will be coming back repeatedly. Highlights for us were the chorizo breakfast tacos and the slow roasted carnitas tacos. She has flour and corn tortillas. The elote was also fresh to order.

I found Texican on Yelp. I was @ Target on Division (1200W) & Larrabee Ave looking for someplace to eat lunch today. I found Texican about 1/2 mile south @ 869 N Larrabee. Texican is a small storefront w/a limited menu. On entering Kim the owner told me they are in the process of remodeling the interior. After perusing the menu I ordered the Garlic Sautéed Gulf Shrimp Tacos. This comes on 2 corn tortillas topped w/chipotle cream, red cabbage, cilantro & Onions for $9.95. The gulf shrimp were nice & plumb. All of the ingredients were fresh & made to order. Since I was the only one in there around 2pm I had a chance to chat w/Kim while eating my Shrimp Tacos. I will be back to try some of the other items on the menu

Incredible breakfast tacos and Kim is always extremely welcoming. At least a 1x/week visit.
