“BEST TACOS IN CHICAGO“

“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.“

“Great Customer Service & Delicious Authentic Mexican food“
“Could be a little cleaner on the counter and table tops but it was lunch time busy. Had the Specials of the Day: Lomo Burrito ($9.99) and Carnitas Tacos ($2.99) and reg price Al Pastor Taco ($3.99). The chucks of carnitas need to be smaller, they were way too big for tacos. The quality of food though was consistently just as good as their other locations. The Al Pastor was especially tasty carved off the gyros like spit.“

“Tried these tacos today and I must say.; It’s like having a little taste of Mexico in every bite. From the variety of tacos all the way to the salsas and fresh beverages. Located on Chicago’s South side on 63rd and Talman. Family owned business. 🇲🇽 🌮 🥤😋“

“Instead of chips and salsa, they serve free chicharrones with a selection of salsa, which were quite unique. The taco was loaded with delicious carnitas. Their menudo was on the plain side but full of tripe. The cactus salad offered a unique texture and refreshing taste. Their corn tortillas also have a strong corn flavor. Overall, this place lives up to its hype. You could also specify which part of the pig you want your carnitas from.“

“This place reminded me of Velvet Taco. We really enjoyed the food, the atmosphere, and the margaritas. I’d go back for the chips and salsa alone. One suggestion would be to organize the menu by protein to make ordering easier and consider trimming down the offerings to better highlight the strongest items.“

“the best Taco of Al Pastor I've ever tried and phenomenal service . I'll be back !“
“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.“
“Very good food! I tried the tacos and burritos. Tried 4 meats so far, the lengua and birria both very good! Everything has been very good!“

“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.“

“Food was hot and ready. Ordered the taco dinner with cabeza tacos. And they were fantastic and fresh with cilantro and onions. Sauces they came with were also fresh and delicious, no weird taste like they have been in the fridge for too long.
Mexican rice was fresh and good. Beans were pretty decent although the cheese wasnt quite melted but i dont really care about that.
Hopefully if i am back this way i’ll stop and get some more tacos. Thanks!“

“Amazing food and delicious drinks with even better service! So hospitable and the owners are always so welcoming. Even gave us complimentary shots as soon as we got there. The music is always on point, instilling us with reason to celebrate Chicago house, juke, and Latin culture. A must try in Logan Square!“

“The food was really good! We ordered the chorizo burrito and carne asada burrito. I took one star away because I wish they had more options for the chorizo burrito like chorizo and eggs or chorizo and potatoes.FYI there is a $2 credit card charge in store so if you are ordering to go it might be better to place your order online because it comes out to be a little bit cheaper. Or bring cash!“

“Food is absolutely delicious5, everything I've tried. I'm ready to have it again. I just wish they would trim the one inches high entryway outside a bright yellow. I've even red around the yellow to draw attention to the "trip", at other establishments. It's just an accident waiting to happen. Thank you.“

“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.“
