What people say

Mexican restaurants are known for their bold and flavorful dishes that tantalize the taste buds. El Taco Azteca - Pilsen takes this to a whole new level with its innovative take on classic Mexican cuisine. Chef Carlos Garcia has brought his twist on Mexican classics to Pilsen, offering made-to-order tacos with handmade tortillas and unique pairings of salsas for each taco.

What sets El Taco Azteca apart from other taco shops in Pilsen is its commitment to elevating each taco with other ingredients like smoked red cabbage on fish tacos slathered with sriracha tartar sauce. The cochinita pibil, or slow-roasted pork tacos, are a must-try, with a generous helping of habanero salsa, pickled red onions, and black beans.

It's no surprise that El Taco Azteca has received recognition from "Chicago's Best" for its cochinita pibil among the city's best pork tacos. The Tribune also praised Chef Garcia for excelling in tackling classic tacos while offering a creative twist.

The newly remodeled restaurant also offers a variety of veggie options, making it an ideal destination for vegetarians and vegans looking for delicious Mexican food. With its gourmet-style dishes and unique flavor combinations, El Taco Azteca - Pilsen is definitely worth a visit.
