“Great Customer Service & Delicious Authentic Mexican food“

“They hosted our private event, everyone was so friendly, the service was fast! Great experience from start to finish! Food was fantastic! ❤️“

“Love this place! Incredible birria! Try the birria quesadilla and elote!“

“I’ve been driving past Taco Boom Truck for what feels like forever, always catching a whiff of grilled meat or seeing a small line of people and thinking, “One day I’ll stop.” Well, I finally did, and man, I should’ve done it way sooner.

It’s a simple setup, parked off the road, colorful, and always smelling amazing. People were hanging out, eating, and the service was quick and friendly. The guy at the window even gave me some salsa tips when I told him it was my first time.

I went with two carne asada tacos. No exaggeration, the meat was so tender and juicy, with this really nice char on the edges. You could taste the seasoning in every bite, nothing overpowering, just that good mix of garlic, citrus, and smoky flavor. The tortillas were warm, soft but sturdy enough to hold everything together (no taco explosions, which is always a win).

The green salsa? Wild. It started off kind of mild, then hit with this spicy, peppery kick that crept up in the best way. It had some creamy avocado vibes too, which made it super addictive. Honestly, I kept dipping even after I ran out of taco.

If you’re in the mood for solid tacos that hit all the right notes, Taco Boom is 100% worth the stop. I already know I’ll be back.“

“Delicious steak tacos and mild sauce 10/10!!“

“love the burritos with pineapple and always the staff is super awsome.“

“Stopped in by chance just passing bcus my daughter wanted to purchase a water and this was the first place we saw after she requested water. Decided to order tacos and they were absolutely delicious. We had the carne asada and it was so flavorful. We ordered as a take out order but the presentation was very neat and colorful with garnishes of red pepper, lime and radish. Nice staff also.“

“Aqui esta todo delicioso para chuparse Los dedos. Vengan con su familia a probar las quesabirrias!! 😋“

“Birria muy buena y Ahora tienen TACOS de Machitos y es de lo mejor que eh probado 💯% , Te mantienen bien atendido todo el tiempo“

“Tom’s Carry-Out has a massive menu—everything from Greek chicken and gyros to ribs, fried seafood, burgers, and Mexican dinners. I usually avoid places with menus this big, but Tom’s proved to be the exception.

I ordered the quesadilla dinner. It was a bit greasy but still tasty and filling. It came with Mexican rice, refried beans (I opted for double rice), and a TomTom tamale. The tamale was a little dry and could have used salsa. My husband had the grilled chicken pita and said it was the best he’s ever had—freshly grilled chicken with lettuce and tomato. I also spotted the Greek chicken at another table, and it looked excellent.

Beer is reasonably priced at $3.50 for domestic and $4.50 for imported. There’s a separate gaming room, which I appreciated since it keeps the dining area quieter. Seating is limited to about a dozen tables, but staff cleared tables quickly, so there was no wait. They also partner with popular delivery services.

Parking is shared with nearby businesses, but most spots seem to be used by Tom’s customers. I’m already planning to try the Greek chicken and Gyros next.“

“that's is my first times i might like it“

“muy rica comida y muy rápido el servicio“

“love this place! i order from here at least once a week!“

“Best tacos in the south ✅✅ keep up the good work“

“Insanely good, food made almost scarily fast, and reasonable prices, don't mistake it for a tourist trap just because it's next to the conservatory. Get a burrito with cilantro and onion if you're hungry in the area, you won't regret it.“

“Burritos are huge. Don’t recommend the shrimp tacos or chorizo, really salty even when eaten with the rice. Our waitress Guadalupe was rude, doesn’t know how to smile, and kept rushing us. Took a star off because of her.

Really hated that the tip was mandatory with no option to adjust. Tipped almost $20 for absolute garbage service. Will Not return“

“Absolutely delicious food! 10/10. Will go back again & again. Had the vegetarian burrito with crema & the bistek a la Mexicana. Both delicious. Ate the flan quickly it was so good.“

“Snacks in the park!!! Omg!! The tacos and elotes are great!!! Can’t wait to come back to try more snacks! 🥰🤩😋“

“Good quiet Taco place. Tortillas are handmade and big. The carne asada and al pastor meat is cooked perfect with a lil char on the asada. A cash only place but also takes zelle/quickpay. Not too busy but good place if you want a quick but delicious bite.“

“Everytime I have a day off I check to see where the food truck is going to be at love love love their tacos!!!😋“

“Great tacos and delicious horchata!“

“Good tacos ! The steak tacos are really good here .“

“We absolutely love everything they offer. The barbacoa tacos, especially, are amazing! One note: the Carne Guisada tacos are really good, but very messy.“

“Los Azares Mexican Grill delivers every time! Easily the best Mexican restaurant in Des Plaines. The Mixed Fajitas are packed with flavor—tender steak, juicy chicken, and perfectly cooked shrimp with fresh peppers and onions. Served with rice, beans, tortillas, and all the toppings—it’s a complete and satisfying meal!“

“Their food is amazing! Very fresh and the portions are great!! I’ll be back soon!“

“Great food nice waiters n pretty place n clean 😊“

“Everything was great. From the food to the service and even the prices. My husband and I went for Valentines day. We got the V-Day which was a birria pizza n desert for $25. My husband had the ground beef enchilada dinner. We both had a passion fruit margarita. The birria pizza was cooked to perfection. The meat was seasoned, tender, and tasty. The consome was 10 out of 10. My husband said every in the enchiladas dinner was good. The owner and his wife are very friendly. The wife took the order and had a wonderful conversation with us. Food didn't take long to prepare. Great experience will be back soon.“

“First time visiting this family owned restaurant. I stopped in to order a taco salad to go and was greeted with a warm welcome. Amazing Taco Salad is all I can say - super fresh - great dressing. My next visit will be Dine-In!“
