22 Best Taco Restaurants near Elgin

“Absolutely wonderful I couldn’t be happier with everything ❤️❤️❤️“

“The owner is really friendly and he was talking to me about his town in Mexico which is Altamirano, Guerrero. Really good service and really good food. Highly recommended to try the chilaquiles and the menudo. The place was really clean and his food menu is not that big which is great because then you don't have a lot of food left over but highly recommend this place.“

“Food was amazing! But when I requested a glass of water, I was informed that they don't give out free cups of water because they didn't have a water dispensing machine. I'd like to see them provider free cups of water to customers. Other then that, place Is awesome!“

“Great tacos & salsas! I’ll be back to try other items on the menu.“

“Andrew was amazing. The food was incredible, service was great, the atmosphere was warm, happy, festive, and saw a lot of locals. Friends... Get here soon! The prices are FANTASTIC! There's only one huge problem... Huge... The name on the building is what they specialize in and not the actual name of the restaurant. The big bold signage says "taco Tequila" but their name is EL Pato LoCo. Attention Owners: eather consider changing the name on the building or changing the name of the restaurant. This is an amazing place to dine at. You're not doing yourself any favors by advertising the wrong verbage! Thanks again Andrew for a great dinning experience. -David Gaffke Proud Owner of Complete Bridal-Bridal Boys“

“This place rocks. Great food and great prices. I usually get the torta, and I got it with lingua the last time I went by. Let me tell ya, that was the best torta I've ever had. Also, the lady that takes your order has never not been happy when I've been in. If you want great food and atmosphere, this is the spot.“

“Finally got around to checking this place out. It was fantastic! The ambiance, food,drinks, and service were all amazing….best and freshest margarita I’ve ever had! This is my new favorite Mexican restaurant!“

“Sabor inigualable, deliciosas.“

“TRY THE TACO SALAD!! It's a beatific crispy shell that's filled with fresh lettuce then ripped with your choice of meat accompanied with fresh guacamole, sour cream and tomatoes. It's a must try! The owner greets you with a genuine smile! They have done a nice re model over the years I've been coming. I'm going to be back very soon .“

“Los mejores tacos de la región y el personal muy amable y los dueños ya ni se diga mis respetos para don José muy amable ,además cuentan con una michoacana y muy deliciosas paletas y helado Amo ir a comer tacos a la alcancia…“

“Very good hot dog; they really grill it until it is hot. A "Shroomer" made as a grilled chicken sandwich is good. The burger is good and I have ended up getting a kid's meal last time so that I can try to eat less meat. I am more of a light weight person anyway. The inside of the restaurant could be renovated. They are still in the real old Kooker's building with the same old tile floor that Kooker's restaurant had when I was in high school. It is over 20 years later now. I have been willing to go back to Happy Burger to get meals. The people at the front desk are nice. I do admit, though, sometimes I end up getting a burger for $3 at fast food drive-throughs. Happy Burger (HB) burger tastes more like a fresh made juicy burger when compared to the McDonald's on the other side of the street. HB fries are not bad but could be better because when the HB fries come up and go into a bag, I have found they were a bit wet.Wet fries is a common imperfection with Chicago-style grills.“

“Oh my gosh, they have the BEST Mexican Food around!!!! Everything is great! So tasty and great service and prices! It's soooooo good! If you haven't had them yet, you need to go get some!!!“

“The grocery store is a great and authentic Hispanic store. They have a large selection of everything you need with the added value of an equally amazing catering service. I’ve used the catering and the food, service and quality were impressive. I would highly recommend both the store and catering.“

“Pretty good. Amazing service. The steak fajita tacos were so yummy. And they give you SO much! Rice & beans were perfect. A lot condiments you can pack yourself to go too. The horchata was ok but lots of places don’t get it right lol only in Mexico he he he! I will come back.“
