El Chaparro Mexican Food #2

I’ve tried many tacos all over Chicago, but el chapparo is by far the best. It’s family owned, real authentic tacos. A little pricy but it’s worth it considering how high quality the meat is. I get it almost every single week and there’s never any fat in the steak. People need to try this place.

The food was very good I enjoyed the steak gorditas and the chicken gorditas and my mom had the corn in the cup. I also bought two steak tacos to go and my son said they were delicious

While I must admit $4 for a taco is a lot, the taste of it is worth it , just wish they were a little less to come more often

Small restaurant with great food. We tried the burrito and the huarache. Accompanied by horchata and an agua de jamaica. Everything was delicious and the horchata was the closest to my grandmother’s that I ever tasted. I would definitely recommend.

This place is super low-key. I’ve driven past it. Probably 100 times and missed it first and foremost now have a huge selection of food. I got the quessabirra tacos and they were great. Service was excellent. The place was clean. Had a nice warm, cool vibe to it. Since it’s on my way home from work, I’ll be stopping there probably at least once or twice a week. I look forward to trying something else on the menu.

Authentic! A friend and I were in the mood for Mexican food. and since we had never been here, decided to try it. We loved it. Dinner orders were prepared quickly in a area just beyond the counter but shielded from the public. Freshly prepared plates were brought to our table almost immediately after cooking was completed. Flavors were fresh, vibrant and bold. Prices maybe were slightly higher than other restaurants where most orders are taken at a counter, but bear in mind you are getting flavorful, freshly prepared food. It is still very budget friendly. (I think the last time we tasted such well prepared food was in a higher end Mexican restaurant/night club we visited several months ago in San Antonio Texas.) Portion sizes at El Chaparro were just right. We both left feeling pleasantly full. We had no room left for dessert, so we need to visit again for something sweet!
My friend is vegetarian, by the way, and he found vegetarian options in several food categories.

Vegetarian options: Vegetarian options include dishes that are would be vegetarian anyway, such as chiles relleno, and beans as an option along with beef. chicken, or pork. In other words, there are meal options that are already traditionally vegetarian.

Ridiculously over priced for mediocre
small tacos...

Always great food, made fresh. Carnitas, Pastor, the rice is soft and compliments the meats. This is spot is the best around here hands down.
